Database locations

The broker can access databases set up on the local computer or on a remote server, subject to restrictions.

A broker domain requires databases to support its brokers. (The Configuration Manager and the User Name Server have no requirement for database access.)

You can create and configure a broker database on the local broker system, or on a remote system, with the exception that you cannot create a remote broker database on z/OS®.

If you choose to use a remote database, you must configure the ODBC connection to the database correctly. Refer to the documentation for the database product that you are using for further information.

See the documentation for the database product that you are using with WebSphere® Event Broker to determine the best options for your specific environment and requirements, and information about how to configure remote database access.
