JDBC 2

The IBM Netcool/OMNIbus Java Gateway for JDBC 2 uses the standard Java™ Database Connectivity (JDBC) API to exchange alerts between Netcool/OMNIbus ObjectServers and external databases. It communicates with the supported databases using Java Type 4 JDBC drivers supplied by the database vendors.

Note: The Java Gateway for JDBC 2 is dependent on the Java Gateway Framework (nco-g-java) and Java Netcool Utility Library (common-jnetcool).

The Java Gateway for JDBC 2 can be used as a replacement for the current Netcool/OMNIbus Gateway for JDBC, the Tivoli® Netcool/OMNIbus Gateway for ODBC and the Tivoli Netcool/OMNIbus Gateway for Oracle.

The Java Gateway for JDBC 2 has the following features:
  • Reporting and Audit modes of operation.
  • Store and forward (SAF) capability using persistent event cache and data forwarding.
  • Resynchronization on startup, which includes bidirectional resynchronization with target databases.
  • Scalability provided by multiple database connections.
