Use this section to install the database you intend to use with
a Build Forge Management Console installation on UNIX or Linux.
A database must be installed and configured with database objects
before you install and configure other technologies and Build Forge. You need
to do the following:
In general you must complete the following tasks:
- Identify the database system you intend to use. Verify that it is one
that Build Forge supports and that the necessary network connectivity exists
between the database host and the Build Forge host. If a proxy server is required
to access the database, get the proxy server name and path.
- If you intend to use international data, verify that the database is configured
to use a UTF-8 character set.
- Create database objects and permissions, in general as follows:
- Database: It is named build in examples, but you can use a different
name.
- Database User: The Management Console uses this user name to access the
database. The user is named build in examples, but you can use a different
user name.
- Database User Password
- Permissions for the build user to create tablespaces in the build database.
Owner permissions are required in order to create, modify, and delete data.
Specific instructions are provided for each database type.
