Creating a Password Datasource Authentication

Scenario

   1. Log in to the DLI management console.
   2. Choose Datasource Connections. On the page displayed, click Datasource Authentication.
   3. Click Create.

      Configure authentication parameters according to Table 1.

      Table 1 Parameters

      Parameter	Description

      Authentication Certificate	Name of the datasource authentication to be created. The name can contain only digits, letters, and underscores (_), but cannot contain only digits or start with an underscore (_). The name can contain a maximum of 128 characters.
      Username	Username for accessing the data source.
      Password	Password for accessing the data source.

2. Access the data source.

   When creating a data source, associate the data source with the created datasource authentication to access the data source.
