Loading the Sample Siebel Database

This topic is part of Configuring and Running the Siebel Applications.

At this stage, you have a running database and a set of running Siebel containers. Now you must provide the Siebel database to connect to, such as the sample database provided.

1. Change directory as follows:

   cd ~/siebel/ConfiguringSiebel/Containerization/Docker/oraclelinux/classic-mde/manage/
   scripts/automate-architecture/db

2. Inspect the content of the script dropDB19. Make sure that the dbFileLocation parameter, which specifies the persistence volume directory location for the database, is set correctly. For example:

   dbFileLocation=/var/lib/docker/volumes/persistence/ORCL19/ORCLCDB

3. Double-check the exact name of the deploy-db container by using the following command:

   docker images

4. Drop the database into location, adjusting for the name of the container you see in your list. Use a command like the following, where 22.x stands for the actual version number, such as 22.6:

   bash dropDB19 store/oracle/siebel/deploy-db/sample:22.x

   The progress of this operation is shown in several lines of output. At the end of the process, you are returned to the UNIX command line.
