Optional creation of databases
If we want to activate the option to install the Application Center when you run the MobileFirst Server installer, you need to have certain database access rights that entitle you to create the tables required by the Application Center.
If you have sufficient database administration credentials, and if you enter the administrator user name and password in the installer when prompted, the installer can create the databases for you. Otherwise, you need to ask your database administrator to create the required database for you. The database needs to be created before you start the MobileFirst Server installer.
The following topics describe the procedure for the supported database management systems.
- Create the DB2 database for Application Center
During IBM MobileFirstâ„¢ Platform Foundation installation, the installer can create the Application Center database for you.- Create the MySQL database for Application Center
During the MobileFirst installation, the installer can create the Application Center database for you.- Create the Oracle database for Application Center
During the installation, the installer can create the Application Center database, except for the Oracle 12c database type, or the user and schema inside an existing database for you.
