Create a table space for the Content Platform Engine global configuration
database on Oracle.
Before you begin
At least two Oracle table spaces must be created for the Content Platform Engine. One table space is needed for the global configuration
database user and one for a single object store user. Do not share the database user for the GCD
with the object store database or with the IBM® Content Navigator.
Procedure
- Create a user (cpe_db_user), password,
and default table space in the Oracle database for the global configuration
database (GCD). See Creating Content Platform
Engine database accounts for information about the user and
required permissions.
- Table space names must contain only alphanumeric
and underscore characters. Names must start with an alphabetic character
and must be at most 30 characters long.
For performance
reasons, specify locally managed, instead of dictionary managed, table
spaces. (The table spaces you create with Oracle Enterprise Manager
are locally managed by default.)
The following table shows the
recommended minimum sizes of the permanent and temporary table spaces
for the GCD. (The table space names shown in the table are arbitrary.)
Table 1. Recommended table sizes for the GCD table spaces

- Record the values for the
Database user name, the Database password, and the table space names
in your customized Installation and Upgrade Worksheet.
To find these properties, set the Autofilter for Column E Installation
or Configuration Program for CM: Configure
GCD JDBC Data Sources. Then set the Autofilter for Column
D ISV Component Vendor to
