Creating the IVIG database

You can specify any name for the IBM Verify Identity Governance database, such as itimdb.

Before you begin

  1. You must have IBM® DB2® database installed and configured on your system.
  2. You must be logged in as the DB2 Instance owner.

Procedure

  1. In the DB2 command window, enter these commands (as the DB2 Instance owner) to create the database:
    db2 create database itim_dbname using codeset UTF-8 territory us
    db2 connect to itim_dbname user itim_dbadmin_name using itim_dbadmin_password
    db2 create bufferpool ENROLEBP size automatic pagesize 32k
    db2 update db cfg for itim_dbname using logsecond 12
    db2 update db cfg for itim_dbname using logfilsiz 10000
    db2 update db cfg for itim_dbname using auto_runstats off
    db2 disconnect current

    The value of itim_dbname is a name such as itimdb. For more information about performance parameter tuning for DB2, see the IBM Verify Identity Governance Performance Tuning Guide.

  2. Stop and start the DB2 server to reset the configuration.

    After you created and configured the IBM Verify Identity Governance database, stop and start the DB2 server to allow the changes to take effect. Enter the following commands:

    1. db2stop
      If entering db2stop fails and the database remains active, enter db2 force application all to deactivate the database. Enter db2stop again.
    2. db2start

What to do next

Confirm that TCP/IP communication is specified.
