Creating the BAM or Data Mart Database

Before enabling BAM or the Data Mart, you must create their respective databases. You can use Process Administrator to either create the database directly, or to generate an SQL script for execution by a database administrator.

Before you can create a BAM or Data Mart database, you should have added the external resource for it. See Adding the BAM or Data Mart Database External Resource.

The following instructions assume you are logged in to Process Administrator. You must perform these steps for each service you will use (BAM and Data Mart).

To create a BAM or Data Mart database:

  1. Click on Process Monitoring. The Process Monitoring page appears.
  2. Select the BAM or Data Mart tab.
  3. In the Advanced Properties section, click Manage Database. The Manage Database page appears.
  4. Select the Create the database and Create the data structure options.
  5. If you have administrator access to the database, enter the database administrator user and password, and click OK. If Process Administrator reports that the database has been created successfully, you are done. The instructions below are for users without administrator access to the database.
  6. If you do not have administrator access, click Show SQL Statements. Your web browser will ask you if you want to save the sql.txt file.
  7. Save the file to any location, and send it to the database administrator, who will run the SQL statements in the file, creating the database.
