About this task
The
testConnection operation takes a data
source
configuration ID as an argument.
Note: This invocation
cannot accept user IDs and passwords that must be defined in the database
itself. This invocation can only be used for databases that do not require
a user ID and password to make a connection (such as DB2 on a Windows machine),
or for data sources that have a component-managed or container-managed authentication
alias set on the data source object.
