Create a Business Space database design properties file
If your Business Space database type is other than the default, create a database design properties file to simplify the database creation process.
Design file templates for each database type are provided in the INSTALL_ROOT/BusinessSpace/config.bspace/MetadataFiles directory; for example, the design file template for DB2 is called BSpace_DB2-distributed.properties.
Procedure
- Create a new file by making a copy of the template file for your database type.
- Change the values of the property settings in the database design properties file, according to your configuration. Comments are provided in the file to help you choose the correct property values.
What to do next
Supply the full path of your database design properties file in one of the following locations, depending on your product environment and configuration preference:
- If you are using the profile management tool to configure Business Space with a profile, designate the database design file by selecting the Use a database design file option.
- If you are using manageprofiles.sh to configure Business Space with a profile, designate the database design file with the -bspacedbDesign parameter.
- If you are using the configureBusinessSpace command to configure Business Space, designate the database design file with the -bspacedbDesign parameter.
