When you install the Oracle Life Sciences Data Hub (Oracle LSH Release 2.1.4) , you will need to enter a parameter value for Company ID. The company ID serves as part of the primary key for all the Oracle LSH objects you define in this instance of Oracle LSH. If your company ever merges with another company and your Oracle LSH data and meta-data are merged with the other company's, the company ID distinguishes the objects created in each original company and prevents duplicate object primary keys.
In order to ensure that you have a unique number relative to other Oracle LSH customers, Oracle recommends that you use a number assigned to you by Oracle. Company IDs are tracked in an Oracle bug that is not publicly viewable. Contact Oracle Support or ask your consultant to reserve a range of ten numbers for your company. You can use these numbers for:
Your company ID. If you have multiple instances of Oracle LSH, Oracle recommends using a different company ID for each instance.
The tech type ID of any adapters your company may create.
This document includes information on all upgrades and patches required as of the data of publication. Check My Oracle Support to see if there are any updates. See "Searching for Knowledge Articles by ID".
