This chapter describes how to install the necessary database.
Many of the Oracle Fusion Middleware components require the existence of schemas in a database prior to installation. These schemas are created and loaded in your database using the Repository Creation Utility (RCU).
See Repository Creation Utility documentation for more information:
http://docs.oracle.com/middleware/1213/core/RCUUG/toc.htm
RCU is available with the Oracle Fusion Middleware Infrastructure distribution in 12c (12.2.1.3).
The repository for Oracle Service Bus (OSB) must be created using RCU tool. The repository must contain SOA Infrastructure (SOAINFRA) schema and all schemas under AS Common Schemas label.
While creating a schema using RCU tool, user must select/mention a prefix which is added to all the schemas created by RCU. In the following example, RCU tool is used to create a repository with SOA Infrastructure schema as <prefix>_SOAINFRA, Metadata Services schema as <prefix>_MDS etc.
Run rcu executable from <wlsHome>/Oracle_Home/oracle_common/bin
cd <wlsHome>/Oracle_Home/oracle_common/bin
rcu
