DatabaseConnectionpreferences
DialogusedtochangethePrintShopMailConnectback-endDatabase.
Thisdialogsupportstheswappingoftheback-enddatabasebetweenvariousvendordatabases.Note,
however,thatthealternatevendordatabase(s)must already be installed and availableinordertoswap
tothem.
Thisisnotamigrationtool.Itisasimpleconnectiontool,thatenablesshiftingtoadifferentback-end
database.Anyexistingdatawillnotbetransferred/migratedbetweenthedatabases,andanyexisting
FileStoreswillbecleansedbytheClean-upServiceaftertheswap.
Whenshiftingtoadifferentback-enddatabase,thechangeswon'tbeapplieduntilPrintShopMailCon-
nectisrestarted.IncludingtheConnectservices.Afullmachinerestartisrecommended,asthis
providesthecleanestrestartofalltheservices.

Basic Connection Settingsselections:

Database vendor:Selectthedatabasetypefromthedropdownlist.
Note: Movingfromonevendordatabasetoanotherwillresetallscreenselectionsto
defaults,regardlessofwhatmayhavebeenpreviouslyselected.
l
Database URL:Thisisaread-onlysummationofthecurrentdatabaseconnectionset-
tings.
Tip: IftheTest Connectionbuttonshowsthatthedatabasecannotbesuccessfully
connectedtousingtheselectedsettings,thenthecontentsofthisfieldcouldbeused
totrytoconnecttothedatabaseoutsideofPrintShopMailConnect.Thisshouldhelp
indeterminingandrefiningtheacceptableconnectionoptions.
l
Hostname:EntertheIPAddressoraliasoftheserverwheredatabaseresides.
