Registering a database server makes it available for use in Database Workbench. After you have registered, you can connect to a database or schema and start using the numerous tools of Database Workbench.

 

In order to register a server, you click the Register Server button on the Server Manager.

This will display the Register Server Wizard - like in the screen shot below.

To register a server, you first need to select the server type - depending on your license, you may have one or more available server types - then click Next.

 

The second page of the Register Server Wizard displays a page that is different for each server type. Below is an example of the InterBase page in the wizard.
