Configure a stand-alone environment with a DB2 for z/OS database server on Linux
You can configure a stand-alone environment for IBM BPM using a DB2 Universal Database for z/OS database server.
- Create database design files and database scripts for DB2 for z/OS
You can specify the design of your database configuration by using the database design tool. The design can be for a specific component or for an enterprise-level database configuration supporting the full functionality of IBM BPM.
- Create or augment stand-alone profiles with a DB2 for z/OS database server
You can create profiles using PMT or manageprofiles.sh. You can augment an existing profile instead of creating a new one if you have an existing WebSphere Application Server V8.0 profile.
- Create DB2 for z/OS databases after stand-alone profile creation
After creating or augmenting profiles, you or your database administrator must create the databases and their tables manually, and you must also run the bootstrapProcessServerData command before you try to start or use the IBM BPM server.
