6.3.2.1 Configure the OFS_HM_SCHEMA_IN.xml File

This section describes how to create database schemas, objects within schemas, and assigning appropriate grants.

Specify the database schemas required for the installation in the OFS_HM_SCHEMA_IN.xml file. Update the values of the various tags and parameters available in this file before executing the schema creator utility.

This file must be configured only if the database is RDBMS.

To configure the OFS_HM_SCHEMA_IN.xml file, follow these steps:
  1. Log in to the system as a non-root user.
  2. Navigate to the OFS_HM_PACK/schema_creator/conf directory.
  3. Edit the OFS_HM_SCHEMA_IN.xml file using a text editor.
  4. Configure the values as mentioned in the following table and save the file.

    Note:

    On successful execution of the utility, the passwords entered in the OFS_HM_SCHEMA_IN.xml file are nullified.

    FORALL attribute and also have specified individual passwords for all the schemas, then the specified individual passwords will take precedence.

    Y

    Default N Permissible: Y or N.

    Enter Y if you want to apply the password specified in the DEFAULT attribute for all the schemas.

    If you enter as N, you must provide individual passwords for all schemas.

    Setting this attribute value is mandatory if the DEFAULT attribute is set.
    <SCHEMA>/TYPE

    The different types of schemas that are supported in this release are ATOMIC and CONFIG.

    By default, the schemas types are seeded based on the Application Pack.

    Y ATOMIC/CONFIG

    Only One CONFIG schema can exist in the file.

    Do not edit this attribute value.

    This schema identifies as the CONFIGURATION schema that holds the OFSAA setup detains and other Metadata information.

    Multiple ATOMIC schemas can exist in the file.

    <SCHEMA>/NAME

    The schemas’ names are seeded based on the Application Pack by default.

    You can edit the schema names if required.

    The Schema Name will have a prefix of the SETUPINFO/ NAME attribute.

    Y

    Seeded, with OFSCONFIG as the default value.

    The permissible length is 15 characters and only alphanumeric characters are allowed. No special characters allowed except underscore '_'.

    SETUPOINFO/NAME attribute value is prefixed to the schema name being created.

    For example, if a name is set as 'ofsaatm' and setupinfo as 'uat', then schema being created is 'uat_ofsaatm'.

    .

    Uncomment the tag and edit. ONLY if tablespaces are to be created as part of the installation.

    For details, see the example following the table.

    When TDE is TRUE in ADV_SEC_OPTIONS, then the <TABLESPACES> tag must be present in the XML file.

    <TABLESPACE>/NAME Logical Name of the tablespace to be created. Y

    Name, if specified, must be referred in the <SCHEMA DEFAULTTABLESPACE= "##NAME##"> attribute.

    Note the ## syntax.

    <TABLESPACE>/VALUE Physical Name of the tablespace to be created. Y NA Value, if specified, is the actual name of the TABLESPACE.
    <TABLESPACE>/DATAFILE Specifies the location of the data file on the server. Y NA Enter the absolute path of the file to be created.
    <TABLESPACE>/AUTOEXTEND Specifies if the tablespace must be extensible or have a hard limit. Y ON or OFF Set to ON to ensure that the tablespace does not run out of space when full.
    <TABLESPACE>/ENCRYPT Specifies if the tablespace(s) must be encrypted using TDE Y ON or OFF

    Set to ON to ensure that the tablespaces when created are encrypted using TDE.

    NOTE: Encryption of tablespaces requires enabling Transparent Data Encryption (TDE) on the Database Server.

    Example: The following snippet shows that TDE is enabled and hence the tablespace is shown with encryption ON.
