Running the script to configure your database for IBM Content Navigator
Information about your IBM Content Navigator web application is stored in a database. After you install IBM Content Navigator, you use the IBM Content Navigator Configuration and Deployment Tool to update the sample script for your database environment. Then, you run the script on your database to configure the database for IBM Content Navigator.
Before you begin
Before you can configure your database for IBM Content Navigator, you must make the script
available to your database server. You can make the scripts available
by:
- Copying the script to your database server
- Making the script available to your database server from a shared network drive
By default, the updated script is in the \configure\dbscripts subdirectory
of the IBM Content Navigator installation
directory.
| Operating system | Default location |
|---|---|
| AIX® | /opt/IBM/ECMClient/configure/dbscripts |
| Linux® | /opt/IBM/ECMClient/configure/dbscripts |
| Linux for System z® | /opt/IBM/ECMClient/configure/dbscripts |
| Windows | C:\Program Files (x86)\IBM\ECMClient\configure\dbscripts |
The updated script for each type of database is in the following subdirectory of the dbscripts directory: \database_type\modified. Use the modified files for your database type, for example, use the script in the \db2\modified directory if your database is a Db2® for Linux, UNIX and Windows database.
Important: Do not use the scripts in the database
subdirectories (db2, db2zos, oracle,
and sql). The scripts in the database subdirectories
do not include the information that you specified in the IBM Content Navigator Configuration and Deployment
Tool.
