2 Configuring the Planning Database in Oracle
Overview
Overview
This chapter discusses configuration issues relating to the use of Oracle with
Business Objects Planning. It is assumed that you already have an
operational Oracle server.
The following basic steps are required to configure an Oracle system for use
with Business Objects Planning:
1. Create a new database. You can also use an existing database if the
Business Objects Planning schema fits into the existing database.
2. Create new users.
3. Create tablespaces.
4. Import a database provided by your implementation consultant.
Creating tablespaces
To create the tablespaces required by Business Objects Planning, use the
script named CreateTableSpaces.sql. A copy of this script can be found
on your Business Objects Planning product distribution, in the folder
\Resources\Enterprise Scripts\Oracle.
The CreateTableSpaces.sql script must be edited as follows:
• Replace the <File Location> parameter with the path to the files in
your environment.
• Update the tablespaces size parameter <Size> with the sizes specified
in Appendix A: Oracle Installation Parameters or as recommended by
your implementation consultant. If your system will have over 150,000
records, please speak with your implementation consultant regarding
proper tablespace sizes.
The “SRC” tablespaces have been created to assist you in optimizing the
performance of Business Objects Planning. A brief explanation of each
tablespace is shown below:
Tablespace Description
SRCTLARGE This tablespace contains only a few, large tables. A
separate tablespace is used for performance reasons.
SRCTSMALL This tablespace contains all of the remaining tables,
whose sizes are relatively small.
SRCILARGE This area is the corresponding index area for the larger
tables.
Tablespace Description
SRCISMALL This area is the corresponding index area for the smaller
tables.
SRCTemp This tablespace is used for temporary tables created and
removed by the Business Objects Planning program
code.
Archiving files
It is strongly recommended to disable archive logging for the Business
Objects Planning database. This feature is unnecessary for Business Objects
Planning due to the nature of updates to the database (low volume of large
transactions that are easily repeatable).
If you choose to enable archive logging, the archive file sizes should be
monitored initially for disk space consumption. You should also schedule the
automatic backup and removal of the archive log files.
