To enable archiving, you must create an archive database.
Before you can enable archiving, you should have added the external
resource reference so that the process engine knows where it is. See Adding the
Archive Database External Resource.
The following instructions assume you are logged in to Process
Administrator
To create an archive database:
- Click on
Engines.
The
Engines page appears.
- Click on the name of the engine you want to create an
archiving database for.
The
Edit Engine page appears.
- In the
Advanced Properties section, click
Manage Database.
The
Manage Database page appears.
- Select the
Create the database and
Create the data structure options.
- 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.
- 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.
- 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.
