To configure the To Database destination component:

• Click the Destination tab.

• From the Database API list box, select the database API you will be using (for example, MySQL).

• In the Data source field, specify either the ODBC Data Source name (if you are using an ODBC Database API), or the actual name of your database (if you are using a non-ODBC API).

• In the Database username and Database password password fields, type the username and password required to access the database. This would have been set by the database administrator. In some cases, these two fields may be left blank.

• In the Full parser VMD path field, type the path of the VMD file you want to parse the messages with. For test purposes, you can download and use this sample VMD file.

• Leave all the other fields as is. (For more information on these fields, see To Database.)

Configuring the To Database Destination Component

• Click the Add Channel button, located at the bottom of the screen, to add the channel to the Iguana Dashboard.

Once you have added the channel, the final step is to export the database tables.
