Create or augment ND profiles with an Oracle database server
You can configure an ND environment for IBM BPM using an Oracle database server.
- Prepare the Oracle database server
During the profile creation or augmentation process, you can configure the Common database that is used by selected components, or you can postpone the database configuration by producing scripts that must be run manually by you or your database administrator (DBA). The other required databases are configured during ND.- Create or augment dmgr profiles
To start the ND configuration, create or augment a dmgr. You can create profiles using PMT or manageprofiles.sh.- Create or augment custom profiles
As part of the ND configuration, create or augment at least one custom profile. A custom profile contains an empty node that you must federate into a dmgr cell to make operational. Federating the custom profile changes it into a managed node.
