Provisioning a Pluggable Database

You can provision a pluggable database (PDB) on an existing container database (CDB) running in a provisioned database working copy.

After you create a working copy of a gold image, provision that working copy to a target, and create a database as a multitenant CDB, you can add a PDB to the CDB using the rhpctl addpdb database command.

• The following command example creates a PDB called pdb21c on a CDB called raccdb21c, which is on a working copy called wc_db21c:

  $ rhpctl addpdb database -workingcopy wc_db21c -cdbname raccdb21c -pdbname pdb21c

• Use the rhpctl deletepdb database command to delete a PDB from an existing CDB on a working copy.
  The following command example deletes a PDB called pdb21c on a CDB called raccdb21c, which is on a working copy called wc_db21c:

  $ rhpctl deletepdb database -workingcopy wc_db21c -cdbname raccdb21c -pdbname pdb21c
