Unless an application you are using specifically requires a system DSN we recomend you setup your connection to use a DSNless connection for multiple reasons:
1. DSNs show less performance and stability compared with DSNless connections 2. It introduces an additional layer between the script and the database so is another point of failure.
If you do need to create a DSN then from your quick access screen in the control panel click the DSN icon. Select the type of DSN you need and follow the on screen instructions for creation. If you have any problems please submit a trouble ticket in your control panel with the following information:
1. Domain name 2. DSN name 3. Path to database 4. Any username and password on the database
