Windows stand-alone: Create Oracle or Oracle RAC database schemas and users
To create database schemas and users, we can create a copy of the template SQL scripts and edit this copy to manually create the database schemas and users. The template SQL scripts should be used as a guide for creating executable scripts and contain invalid SQL syntax.Before beginning:
- You should have installed Oracle.
- If WebSphere Portal v8.0 and an earlier version of WebSphere Portal coexist, the database user IDs for WebSphere Portal v8.0 must be different than earlier versions to avoid conflicts during installation.
Create users and grant the appropriate privileges in Oracle before configuring WebSphere Portal to work with Oracle.
Take care to create users in an environment that has the same settings as the actual runtime environment.
For example, avoid creating a user in an English environment if you plan to use that user in a Turkish environment.
