Enabling TLS on the Enterprise Server (Release 9.2.7.3)

Starting with Tools Release 9.2.7.3, you can enable TLS for communication between Enterprise Servers and database servers.

To enable communication between Enterprise servers and database servers using TLS, perform the following configuration steps on the Enterprise Server instance in the Server Manager Console:

Navigate to Enterprise Server Instance > Configuration > Advanced > Database > Bootstrap Datasource. Enter the secured port number in the Database TCP/IP Port field.

The Database TCP/IP Port field is not applicable to AS/400 database and is not displayed when AS/400 database is selected.

This image shows the Database TCP/IP Port field

Note: You must update the Database TCP/IP Port field for IBM UDB and Oracle Database. However, AS/400 and MS SQL Server have default Database TCP/IP Port and updating the Database TCP/IP Port field is not required.

Navigate to Enterprise Server Instance > Configuration > Advanced > Java Runtime Properties > JDBj Bootstrap Datasource. Enter the secured port number in the Database TCP/IP Port field.

Navigate to Enterprise Server Instance > Configuration > Advanced > Java Runtime Properties > JDBj Runtime Properties. Use the drop-down menu to select true for the Use TLS field.

Note: The Use TLS configuration is not applicable to Oracle Database.
