Installing jConnect System Objects into a Database

To use jConnect to access system table information (database metadata), you must add the jConnect system objects to your database.

Prerequisites

You must have the ALTER DATABASE system privilege, and must be the only connection to the database.

Back up your database files before upgrading. If you attempt to upgrade a database and it fails, then the database becomes unusable.

Task

jConnect system objects are installed into an SAP Sybase IQ database by default when you use the iqinit utility. You can add the jConnect system objects to the database when creating the database or at a later time by upgrading the database.
