System-initialized databases
When you initialize an ObjectServer, a number of default databases are created.
The following table describes these system-initialized databases.
| Database name | Type of database | Description |
|---|---|---|
| security | System | Contains information about the security system, including users, roles, groups, and permissions. |
| catalog | System | Contains metadata about ObjectServer objects. |
| alerts | User | Contains alert status information, forwarded to the ObjectServer by probes and gateways. |
| service | User | Used to support IBM Tivoli Composite Application Manager for Internet Service Monitoring. |
| custom | User | Can be used for tables added by users. |
| persist | System | Records internal ObjectServer state information. |
| transfer | System | Used internally by the ObjectServer unidirectional and bidirectional gateways to synchronize security information between ObjectServers. |
| master | User | Used for compatibility with prior releases of Tivoli Netcool/OMNIbus. Tables in the master database also support the desktop ObjectServer architecture. |
| tools | User | Used for compatibility with prior releases of Tivoli Netcool/OMNIbus. |
| registry | User | Contains information about distributed Tivoli Netcool/OMNIbus configurations. |
| iduc_system | User | Contains all of the required IDUC application support tables for accelerated event notification, sending information messages, and invoking commands. |
| precision | User | Used by IBM Tivoli Network Manager IP Edition to implement the service-affected events application. |
Restriction: The ObjectServer maintains system databases.
You can view, but cannot modify, the data in them.
