Create the MDM Hub Master Database

After you install IBM DB2, create an

MDM Hub Master Database

If you want to create multiple MDM Hub Master Databases, ensure that you create each MDM Hub Master Database in a different schema.

The default name of the MDM Hub Master Database is

CMX_SYSTEM

, but you can use a custom name.

If you change the folder names in the distribution directory, metadata import fails.

Open a command prompt, and navigate to the following directory:

MDM Hub distribution directory

>/database/bin

To create the MDM Hub Master Database, run the following command:

On UNIX.

./sip_ant.sh create_system

On Windows.

sip_ant.bat create_system

Answer the prompts described in the following table:

The prompt displays default text in brackets. Press

Enter

to use the default value and go to the next prompt.

Prompts	Description
Enter the database type (ORACLE, MSSQL, DB2)	Database type. Specify DB2 . DB2 datasources are case-sensitive. To avoid issues related to case-sensitivity, Informatica recommends that you use uppercase letters to define names, such as the schema names, column names, and triggers.
Enter the database host name [localhost]	Name of the host that runs the database. Default is localhost . In cluster environments, specify the absolute host name or the IP address to avoid caching issues.
Enter the database port number [50000]	Port number that the database listener uses. Default is 50000 . You cannot create the DB2 database if the port number is not the default 50000. You must manually change the port number in the DB2 properties file.
Enter the database instance name [SIP97]	Name of the database instance. Default is SIP97 .
Enter master database name [cmx_system]	Name of the MDM Hub Master Database schema. Default is cmx_system .
Enter master user name [cmx_system]	User name to access the MDM Hub Master Database. Default is cmx_system .
Enter master database user password	Password to access the MDM Hub Master Database.
Enter locale name from the list: de, en_US, fr, ja, ko, zh_CN. [en_US]	Operating system locale. Default is en_US .
Enter the DBA user name [DB2ADMIN]	User name of the administrative user. Default is DB2ADMIN .
Enter the DBA password	Password of the administrative user.

To verify that the MDM Hub Master Database was created successfully, review

sip_ant.log

in the following directory:

MDM Hub distribution directory

>/database/bin

The

sip_ant.log

file logs any errors that might occur when you run the

sip_ant

script to create the

MDM Hub Master Database

If you intend to configure single sign-on authentication for other applications such as Salesforce, increase the BLOB column length. Run the following command on the MDM Hub Master Database:

SET SCHEMA CMX_SYSTEM; ALTER TABLE C_REPOS_SAM_PROVIDER_FILE ALTER COLUMN PROVIDER_FILE SET DATA TYPE BLOB (10240000); CALL ADMIN_CMD('REORG TABLE C_REPOS_SAM_PROVIDER_FILE');
