SameDB—Single database instance for Oracle InForm and Cognos reporting software

The Oracle InForm database and the Oracle InForm reporting database are installed on a single database instance.

Observe the following architecture rules when setting up the database instance for the Oracle InForm software and the Reporting and Analysis module:

  • A single database can hold multiple reporting schemas.
  • The study and reporting schema cannot be installed in the same database as the Content Store database for Cognos Analytics Reporting. No other Oracle products should already reside in or be added to the study and reporting database.
  • The Oracle InForm database is not required to run in archive log mode.
