To use the DB Datastore option you must first create the database on your database server. Scripts for creating a database may be found in the JSCAPE MFT Server installation directory. Scripts for MySQL, Microsoft SQL Server and Oracle are provided in the files named mysql.sql, mssql.sql and oracle.sql respectively. Libraries for JDBC drivers must be placed in the libs directory of your JSCAPE MFT Server installation, the JDBC driver class registered in File > Settings > JDBC, and the JSCAPE MFT Server Service restarted in order for the new drivers to be loaded.
Once this is complete you go to the "Datastore" panel and set the service type to be DB Datastore.
