Specify alternative ports for Microsoft SQL Server and IBM DB2

Use the node Setup > Datastore to manage the Datastore connection settings of the Setup and Sync Tool.

You can configure Microsoft SQL Server and IBM DB2 database servers to listen on a different port than the default one (1433 for Microsoft SQL Server, 50000 for IBM DB2). You need to specify this port number in Ivanti Identity Director from the moment it is used on the database server.

• For Microsoft SQL Server, separate server name and port number with a comma (,), as in: <dbserver>, <port number>
• For IBM DB2, separate server name and port number with a colon (:), as in: <dbserver>: <port number>

New environments

In the Datastore Wizard, when you select a database server, also specify the port number in the Database server field in the format as shown above.
