Creating the database for Informix or OneDB for the master domain manager

Instructions for creating and populating the HCL Workload Automation database for Informix or OneDB for the master domain manager on UNIX operating systems. Both the database and the master domain manager must reside on UNIX operating systems.

Before you begin

Before you create the database for , ensure you have created the following db and sb spaces:
  • A db space sized 100 MB and with a page size of 8K or greater. When you run the configureDb command, as described below, specify this db space for the following parameters:
    • iwstsname
    • iwslogtsname
    • iwsplantsname
  • An sb space for blob and clob data, sized 100 MB. When you run the configureDb command, as described below, specify this sb space for the iwssbspace parameter.

About this task

This picture describes the steps required for installing the master domain manager. You are now at step 3: creating and populating the HCL Workload Automation database

You can perform a typical database procedure, as described in the following scenarios, or you can customize the database parameters, as described in FAQ - Database customizations.

You can run the configureDb command specifying a typical set of parameters. In this case, default values are used for all remaining parameters.

For more information about all parameters and supported values of the configureDb command, see Database configuration - configureDB script.

Default values are stored in the configureDbIds.properties file, located in image_location/TWS/interp_name.

If you need to modify any of the default values, edit the configureDbIds.properties file, but do not modify the configureDbIds.template file located in the same path.

To create the HCL Workload Automation database and schema, perform the following steps:

Procedure

  1. On the server where you plan to install the master domain manager, extract the HCL Workload Automation package to a directory of your choice.
  2. Browse to image_location/TWS/interp_name.
  3. Type the following command to populate the HCL Workload Automation database with typical settings:
    On UNIX operating systems
    ./configureDb.sh --rdbmstype IDS --dbname db_name -–dbuser db_user 
 --dbhostname db_hostname --dbadminuser db_administrator 
 --dbadminuserpw db_administrator_password
    where:
    --rdbmstype
    The database vendor.
    --dbhostname db_hostname
    The host name or IP address of database server.
    --dbport db_port
    The port of the database server.
    --dbname db_name
    The name of the HCL Workload Automation database.
    dbuser db_user
    The user to be granted access to the HCL Workload Automation tables on the database server.
    --dbadminuser db_admin_user
    The database administrator user that creates the HCL Workload Automation schema objects on the database server.
    --dbadminuserpw db_admin_password
    The password of the DB administrator user that creates the HCL Workload Automation schema objects on the database server.
    Note: The following parameters specified with the configureDb command are also required when installing the master components and their values must be the same:
    • rdbmstype
    • dbhostname
    • dbport
    • dbname
    • dbuser

Results

You have now successfully created and populated the HCL Workload Automation database.

You can now proceed to Creating the database for Informix or OneDB for the Dynamic Workload Console.
