Creating the ActiveMatrix Administrator Database Using DB2

Create a DB2 database, configure it, and create an operating system user account to access it.

Procedure

  1. Create a new, empty database that will be used to hold the ActiveMatrix Administrator database tables - for example, amx.
    Note: The ActiveMatrix BPM database tables (for each BPM system) and ActiveMatrix Administrator database tables must be stored in separate databases.
  2. Set the database page size to 32768.
  3. Make sure that the DB2 cur_commit database configuration parameter is set to ON.
  4. Create an operating system user account for the system to use to connect to the ActiveMatrix Administrator database - for example, amx_db_user. (Alternatively, you can identify an existing operating system account to use.)

    You will specify this user in the Username field of the Administrator Server Configuration: Database Details screen when you run the Create TIBCO ActiveMatrix BPM Server Wizard or Create TIBCO ActiveMatrix Administrator Server Wizard.

  5. Make sure that the database is available.
