Create DB2 for z/OS databases after ND 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.

• DB2 for z/OS authorization prerequisites
  Before you create the IBM BPM databases, you must ensure that the required authorizations are granted for your DB2 for z/OS version. Also ensure that the appropriate storage groups and buffer pools are assigned, and configure clustering if necessary.
• Create databases in the DB2 for z/OS subsystem
  When you use the database design tool (DbDesignGenerator) to define your database configuration, you can generate the database scripts that are required for creating the databases for the IBM BPM components.
• Create the messaging engine data stores
  

  If the messaging engine data stores have not already been created, use the database design tool to generate the database scripts that the database administrator will use to create the tables for the messaging engine data stores.

• Granting table privileges to the JCA authentication alias user ID
  

  If the schema name you are using is not the same as the JCA authentication alias user ID, you must grant a subset of DB2 for z/OS privileges to the JCA authentication alias user ID.

• Setting the correct schema name for the messaging engines
  To ensure that the service integration bus (SIB) messaging engines can access the appropriate DB2 for z/OS tables, the correct schema name must be set for the messaging engines. You can use the administrative console to change the schema names.
