Database Connection Parent topic

Administration > IWSVA Configuration > Database Connection
IWSVA uses either an existing PostgreSQL database, or installs its own PostgreSQL database. The database holds policy settings and log data. Database connection can be checked on the Administration > IWSVA Configuration > Database Connection tab on the Web console. Database settings are stored in the /etc/iscan/intscan.ini file. These fields show the choices made during Setup, and should not be changed independent of the Linux ODBC Data Source.
Database Connection Settings
  • ODBC data source name—Shows the ODBC name chosen during Setup.
  • User name—Shows the user name for the ODBC data source; determined during Setup. Default is "sa"
  • Password—Displays the encrypted ODBC password chosen during Setup.
  • Test Database Connection—Click this button to check that the Policy Database and Log Database connections are correct and that the connection is working. Response messages are generated from the native ODBC data source.
