If you need to build a connector for a new database type, it must inherit from the DPConnector class, and have a Datapump_RegisterConnections function. Use the XMLFile connector source as an example.
To create new database connectors
-
Install the licensed client libraries on each server that is going to run Datapump executables.
-
Use the DatapumpConnectors.Examples.sln SLN file to build a %DNADataRoot%\Historical\bin\libdp<db>.dll file.
-
In the %DNADataRoot%\Historical\config\settings directory, either create or open the Datapump_Extensions.json file on the systems that will be running Datapump executables, and add the new connector configuration.
