Import Database Configuration

Use this page to import a database configuration document that defines the database metadata definitions for the deployment environment. Importing a database configuration is optional.

The design document can be based on a database design that you created using the database design tool (DDT), or it can be the supplied design document based on the pattern and feature that you have selected. If you do not have a database design document, you can set the database parameters on the next step (Database) of the Deployment Environment Configuration wizard. You may also correct any database parameters of an imported database design document if needed.

The database design document defines the database metadata definitions for the selected deployment environment features.

There can be database configuration documents for each feature of the deployment environment. If there are multiple features supported by the deployment manager, and if there are database design documents for each of the features, you can use this page to import both database design documents.
Note: If your deployment manager supports multiple features, and if there are tables in the imported database configuration documents that have common definitions (for example, IBM Business Process Manager and IBM Business Monitor can both have a table definition for Business Space), the system would use the Business Space database definition of database configuration document for feature, as opposed to the compatible feature. So, for database design documents that include common tables, the table associated with the feature takes precedent over the table associated with the compatible feature.
Note: The database design document that you import for the deployment environment does not change the commonDB created at Profile Creation time.
