Changing the Connection String for a Global Resource
You can change the connection strings for any of the global resources.
To change the connection string for a global resource
Note
- Because the Data Warehouse global resource has its own snap-in extension with a different user interface, this procedure does not apply. For instructions about changing the Data Warehouse connection strings, see Configuring Data Warehouse Connection Strings.
In Commerce Server Manager, expand Commerce Server Manager, and then expand Global Resources.
Right-click the global resource to be configured, and then click Properties.
In the Properties dialog box, on the Connection Strings tab, to configure the connection strings for the global resource, select a connection string, and then click Modify.
The Data Link Properties dialog box appears.
After making the necessary changes in the Data Link Properties dialog box, click OK.
Notes
- It is possible to add connection strings that are not associated with a database, and thus, do not work. If this occurs, Microsoft Data Link does not display an error message.
- After you change a connection string, you must restart Internet Information Services (IIS). For instructions, see Restarting IIS and Commerce Server Services.
