WebSphere Application Server Integration Verification

This topic provides information to verify that your application can make a data source or direct connection to the database by using the Delinea JDBC Proxy Driver in WebSphere Application Server.

Verifying a Data Source Connection

To verify that your application can successfully make a data source connection to the database by using the Delinea JDBC Proxy Driver, use the logs in WebSphere Application Server. In WebSphere Application Server, these logs are typically written to C:\Program Files\IBM\WebSphere\AppServer1\profiles\AppSrv01\logs\server1\SystemOut.log.

Open the SystemOut.log file by using any text editor (for example, Notepad++) and search for the following log lines:

  • CommonDataSource: Inside GetBaseDataSource

  • DelineaDriverHelper: Inside DelineaDriverHelperinit

  • DelineaDriverHelper: Driver configuration read successfully

  • CommonDelineaDataSource: Database credential fetched successfully from Secret Server

These log entries confirm that:

  • The data source logic is being executed.

  • The JDBC Proxy Driver is initializing correctly.

  • The driver is able to read its configuration.

  • Database credentials are being successfully fetched from Secret Server.

Verifying a Direct Connection

To verify that your application can successfully make a direct connection to the database by using the Delinea JDBC Proxy Driver, use the logs in WebSphere Application Server. In WebSphere Application Server, these logs are typically written to C:\Program Files\IBM\WebSphere\AppServer1\profiles\AppSrv01\logs\server1\SystemOut.log.

Open the SystemOut.log file by using any text editor (for example, Notepad++) and search for the following log lines:

  • DelineaDriver: Driver register successfully
  • DelineaDriver: Loading the property file of DelineaDriver
  • DelineaDriverHelper: Driver configuration read successfully
  • DelineaDriver: Database credential fetched successfully from Secret Server

These log entries confirm that:

  • The JDBC Proxy Driver was loaded successfully.

  • The JDBC Proxy Driver is reading its configuration from the DelineaDriver.properties file.

  • The driver is able to read its configuration.

  • Database credentials are being successfully fetched from Secret Server.
