You can connect to the database.

Follow the steps below to connect a database:

In the Object Browser pane, right-click the selected database name and select Connect to DB.

NOTE:

This operation can be performed only on an inactive database.

The database is connected.

The status bar displays the status of the completed operation.
NOTE:
- Data Studio allows you to login even if the password has expired with a message informing that some operations may not work as expected when no other database is connected in that connection profile. Refer to Password Expiry for information to change this behavior.
- Refer to Cancelling Connection section to cancel the connection to database.
