Creating the database for Azure SQL or Google Cloud SQL for SQL server for the master domain manager

Instructions for creating and populating the HCL Workload Automation database for Azure SQL or Google Cloud SQL for SQL server for the master domain manager

About this task

This picture describes the steps required for installing the master domain manager. You are now at step 3: creating and populating the HCL Workload Automationdatabase

You can perform a typical database procedure, as described in the following scenarios, or you can customize the database parameters, as described in FAQ - Database customizations.

You can run the configureDb command specifying a typical set of parameters. In this case, default values are used for all remaining parameters.

For more information about all parameters and supported values of the configureDb command, see Database configuration - configureDB script.

Default values are stored in the configureDbMSSQL.properties file, located in image_location/TWS/interp_name.

If you need to modify any of the default values, edit the configureDbMSSQL.properties file, but do not modify the configureDbMSSQL.template file located in the same path.

To create the HCL Workload Automation database and schema, perform the following steps:

Procedure

  1. Specify the path for the tablespaces when running the configureDb command or when filling in the configureDbMSSQL.properties properties file with the following parameters:
    • --iwstsname PRIMARY
    • --iwslogtsname PRIMARY
    • --iwsplantsname PRIMARY
    You can optionally modify the PRIMARY default values when running the configureDb command.
  2. On the server where you plan to install the master domain manager, extract the HCL Workload Automation package to a directory of your choice.
  3. Browse to image_location/TWS/interp_name.
  4. To populate the HCL Workload Automation database with typical settings, type the following command:
    On Windows operating systems
    cscript configureDb.vbs --rdbmstype MSSQL --dbname db_name
    --dbhostname db_hostname --dbadminuser db_administrator
    --dbadminuserpw db_administrator_password
    --iwstsname DATA_tablespace_name
    --iwslogtsname LOG_tablespace_name
    --iwsplantsname PLAN_tablespace_name
    On UNIX operating systems
    ./configureDb.sh --rdbmstype MSSQL --dbname db_name
    --dbhostname db_hostname --dbadminuser db_administrator
    --dbadminuserpw DB_administrator_password
    --iwstsname DATA_tablespace_name
    --iwslogtsname LOG_tablespace_name
    --iwsplantsname PLAN_tablespace_name
    where:
    --rdbmstype
    The database vendor.
    --dbhostname db_hostname
    The host name or IP address of database server.
    --dbname db_name
    The name of the HCL Workload Automation database.
    dbuser db_user
    The user to be granted access to the HCL Workload Automation tables on the database server.
    --dbadminuser db_admin_user
    The database administrator user that creates the HCL Workload Automation schema objects on the database server.
    --dbadminuserpw db_admin_password
    The password of the DB administrator user that creates the HCL Workload Automation schema objects on the database server. Special characters are not supported.
    --iwstsname|-tn table_space_name
    The name of the tablespace for HCL Workload Automation data. This parameter is required.
    --iwslogtsname|-ln log_table_space
    The name of the tablespace for HCL Workload Automation log. This parameter is required.
    --iwsplantsname|-pn plan_table_space
    The name of the tablespace for HCL Workload Automation plan. This parameter is required.

Results

You have now successfully created and populated the HCL Workload Automation database.

You can now proceed to Creating and populating the database for Azure SQL or Google Cloud SQL for SQL server for the Dynamic Workload Console.
