# Specify the Target Database (Downstream Database)

__*Using DM*__
__*DM target database*__
__*DM downstream database*__

```11
target-database:
  host: "127.0.0.1"
  port: 4000
  user: "root"
  password: ""
```
-------------------------------------------------------------
Once the upstream database (source database) is ready, you need to configure the downstream database (target database). Once the task configuration file is edited, load it by tiup dmctl.

Assuming that the task name is test and migrates in both full and incremental ways, the IP of the downstream database (target database) is 172.16.10.83, and the configuration file is task.yaml, the configuration file is:

```
target-database:
  host: "127.0.0.1"
  port: 4000
  user: "root"
  password: ""
```
