Creating and populating the database

Before you install the Dynamic Workload Console for the first time, ensure you have a supported database installed. You can choose to use any of the supported relational database management systems (RDBMS).

Create and populate the database tables for the Dynamic Workload Console by following the procedure appropriate for your RDBMS:

• Creating and populating the database for DB2 for the Dynamic Workload Console
• Creating and populating the database for DB2 for z/OS for the Dynamic Workload Console
• Creating the database for Oracle for the Dynamic Workload Console
• Creating and populating the database for MSSQL for the Dynamic Workload Console
• Creating and populating the database for MSSQL cloud-based databases for the Dynamic Workload Console
• Creating and populating the database for PostgreSQL for the Dynamic Workload Console

Note: If you use Db2 for z/OS with Dynamic Workload Console version 10.2.4 or later, transfer the drivers in binary mode from your Db2 for z/OS installation to a directory of your choice. Specify this directory using the dbdriverspath parameter when running the configuredb or dwcinst scripts.

Next, install the Dynamic Workload Console servers, as described in Dynamic Workload Console installation - dwcinst script.
