To access a Microsoft SQL ServerL database, the host on which the client application is running must have connectivity to the Application Network configured for the database.
You can use any SQL client application to connect to a database in your Microsoft SQL Server database. To connect, you must be able to identify the FQDN of the Microsoft SQL Server host, the port on which the server is running, and the database name. You must also have the Microsoft SQL Server admin credentials on hand. You can obtain this information from the Data Management for VMware Tanzu console. See Locating the Database Connection Parameters.
