Data Sources

A Data Source stores the connection information for a Meridium Enterprise APM database and allows users to access that database. When you log in to Meridium Enterprise APM, you will select the data source that corresponds to the Meridium Enterprise APM database that you want to use.

Data Sources are associated with a specific Meridium Enterprise APM Application Server to indicate which databases are accessible from that Application Server.

Connection information about Data Sources is stored in MeridiumDatasources.xml, which exists on the Meridium Enterprise APM Application Server in the C:\ProgramData\Meridium folder. This file is created automatically when you install or upgrade the Meridium Enterprise APM Application Server. When it is first created during a new installation, it will be empty. It will be updated automatically as you create, modify, and delete Data Sources.

Note: Data Source passwords are encrypted in the file.
