Seed Data
Seed data is maintained by Oracle. It is delivered as part of a release and may be updated by software upgrades. In general, customers should not change this data (see the Restrictions on using Seed Data section below).
Restrictions on Using Seed Data
Because Seed Data is maintained by Oracle, it may be modified or even deleted as part of an upgrade. Customers should therefore exercise caution when using seed data in their configuration by abiding these rules:
-
Do not remove (delete) Seed Data rows. A patch may re-insert the row.
-
Do not update columns, other than those indicated as updateble below.
-
Do not make references to rows that may be deleted by Oracle (see table below).
Violations of the rules above (especially rule 3) may lead to failures during the installation of upgrades.
The table below lists the Seed Data tables.
-
Data: The table or logical entity
-
Updatable Columns: The customer may update the values in these columns. They will not be overwritten by upgrade scripts. Other columns should not be updated by the customer.
-
Physical Delete: Upgrade scripts may delete this data. The customer should not create references to this data.
