Launch the Admin Console, Configuration tab, click on the name of your data source, use the Set Properties button on the right, go to the Connection tab, press the Edit button alongside the connection string then enter the new connection parameters for your desired database.

Once you save this, you may also need to drill down a further level and edit the signon if it's different.

Regards,

MF.
