Get Your Company ID from Oracle

When you install Oracle LSH, you need to enter a parameter value for the 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 metadata are merged with the data of another company, the company ID distinguishes the objects created in each original company and prevents duplicate object primary keys.

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.
