Creating the Archive Database

Before performing the following procedures, ensure that you have enabled archiving. See Enabling Archiving for more information. You should also ensure that you have created an external resource for your archive database server and specified this external resource on the Services tab. Process Administrator uses this external resource to connect to the archive database to create the required database tables.

  1. Launch Process Administrator
  2. Select the engine where you are creating the archive database.
    Note: You must create a separate archive database for each engine.
  3. Select the Basic Configuration tab.
  4. Select Manage Database.
  5. Select Create the archiving database and Create the archiving database structure.
  6. Enter the DBA username and password for your database server.
  7. Click OK to create the archive database.

The archive database is created.
