Configuring the IOBox Connection Source

Using PLM Process Configuration, you can configure the IOBox connection source. You must configure the IOBox connection source if Optiva is running inside of Infor OS. You are only required to complete these steps if you are using Infor Ming.le.

  1. Create an empty database. We recommend that you name these databases OptivaIOBox but any name is acceptable.
    Note:  You must run a script that is version-specific to create tables on the IOBox database. To obtain the version-specific script for your IOBox database, contact customer support.
  2. In the IOBox Connection Source section, click New to configure where the IO Box for this app server resides. The Connection dialog is displayed.
  3. Complete steps 5-6 in Configuring the database connection strings to configure the OptivaIOBox database.
  4. Run the dbChanges1214iobox.sql script or the dbChanges1214iobox_oracle.sql script to populate the necessary tables.
  5. Configure the connection points in Ming.le. See Configuring the connection points in the ION desk.
