[JDBC-Persistence] heave from OH1 to OH2/ESH, choosing a namespace

Hello @mickey4u,

Automatic Installation:
Goto PaperUI->Extensions->Persistence Services and install your preferred Service/Database.
After installation of a Service, configure it in PaperUI->Configuration->Services.

In OpenHAB2 you can find the Binding configurations in /conf/services/.
For every Binding one *.cfg File. For JDBC Binding its named jdbc.cfg

Edit 20161203 outdated:
At the moment Installation of JDBC Persistence Service does not work correctly in OpenHAB 2. So you have to install it manually. (@Kai, in eclipse environment installation works, in Karaf it doesn’t)

For now, installation manually:

  1. Goto PaperUI->Extensions->Persistence Services and install your preferred Service/Database.
  2. Adjust/create the following file /conf/services/jdbc.cfg
    Edit 20161203 outdated: 3. Select a Driver File and put it in /addons folder.

For MySql for example there should be a /conf/services/jdbc.cfg like:
