Jama Connect User Guide

Configure database settings

Database settings can be configured as part of your initial installation of Jama Connect or any time you need to make changes.

  1. In the header of the KOTS Admin Console, select Application > Config to open the settings page.

  2. Scroll to the Database Settings section of the page.

    Image shows Database settings with Host, Port, Database (jama) user name (jamauser) and password.
  3. Select the type of database you're using, MySQL or Microsoft SQL, then complete or change the database settings as needed.

  4. (Optional) If you need to connect to your database through an SSL-encrypted connection, provide additional connection string parameters. These parameters specify key/value pairs in the format appropriate to your database.

    • MySQL

      useSSL=true&requireSSL=true
    • SQL Server

      ssl=require;appName=jama;bufferMinPackets

      More options are available for MySQL and SQL Server

Your changes aren't applied until you deploy a new sequence in the Dashboard or Version history pages of the KOTS Admin Console.
