Creating a Database

Objectives
At the end of this chapter, you should be able to:
• Understand Oracle services (configuration and migration tools and
application development tools)
• Use DBCA to create database
• Use DBCA to configure database
• Use DBCA to create template
• Use DBCA to create database using template
• Use DBCA to delete database
• Use DBCA to delete template
• Usage of administration tools
Introduction
In this chapter we shall learn how to create and navigate the available
resources that are used by the database administrators. The exploration of
key features of the DBCA and the administrative tools that are coupled with
each database instance created by the administrators.
Oracle Services
Under the directory, Start menu> All programs> Oracle- Oradb12Home1 , the following
services are available;

Application development tools


• sqlplus- a command line based interface to access the database
• Sql developer – a graphical user interface to access the database

Configuration and Migration tools


• Database configuration assistant(DBCA)- used to create the database, delete and modify
the configuration settings, manage templates
• Net configuration assistant – used for configuring Oracle Net services
• Net manager -used for configuring Oracle Net services
Oracle Services
Application development tools
Sqlplus
• Is a command line tool that is used to connect to the created database.
• Administrator will be required to have sound knowledge of SQL commands in order
to use this tool

Sql developer
• A graphical user interface to access the database.
• Used to perform activities in the Oracle databse and has predefined functions that
reduce the need to recall Sql syntax.
• We shall be using the tool to manipulate the database objects
Oracle Services
Configuration and Migration tools

• Database configuration assistant- this service suite is used to create the database, delete and
modify the configuration settings, manage templates

• Net configuration assistant & Net manager- used for configuring Oracle Net services, this is
because the oracle 12c database application is used to configure connectivity services that
enable connectivity for the client to the server and local connectivity. You will be configuring
listeners for local access and name resolution for remote access to the database
Oracle Database Creation
Using DBCA

Refer WorkingwithDBCA.doc uploaded in blackboard.


Activity 1
Database Creation Activity 1

Now attempt to create a database called MIS and assign passwords


to the DBA accounts
Oracle Template Creation
Using DBCA

Refer WorkingwithDBCA.doc uploaded in blackboard.


Activity 2
Database Template creation

In this section you will be required to create a template from the base
database called MIS and name the template MIS_template
Oracle Services- Database Creation from
template
Using DBCA

Refer WorkingwithDBCA.doc uploaded in blackboard.


Oracle Services- Database Deletion
Database Deletion – at times you will need to delete the database and its related physical
files and for this process you shall also use the DBCA services to perform the action. By
now you should be able to able the services within the start menu links. Configuration and
migration tools and then run Database configuration assistant then select the Delete
Database, after which select the database being deleted in order to perform the action. Then
provide the credentials of the SYS DBA account of the specific database. Then click on
next until it is finished and await for the system to remove it and its related files.
Template Deletion- the deletion of the database can also be done on the database
templates. For this action you will use the Database Configuration Assistant and within it
select Manage Templates, then select delete a database template and then select the created
template. After which complete the process by continually clicking on next until it prompts
you to finish the action.

Note: Refer WorkingwithDBCA.doc uploaded in blackboard.


Activity
Database Deletion Activity(s)

Now that you have learnt how to create databases and templates. You can
start of by removing the database called MIS and then attempt to also
remove the template called MIS_template
Oracle Services- Administrative Tools
SQLPLUS

You will now learn how to use the command line application by locating the
Application Development sub menu and then select the SQL PLUS link.

Login as SYS DBA to the default database then provide the password

Or

Scott@ORCL then input the password


Oracle Services- Administrative Tools

SQL DEVELOPER
• With this application every user is created a logical link to the database.
• It is installed and every database and users require linking.

ENTEPRISE MANAGER CONSOLE


• This is as web based application based at the management of the database
instance even though it can manage and create some or most of the
database objects without the need of writing SQL commands.
• It monitors performance of the Instance and provides interfaces that can
be used to manage the initialization parameters of the database.
• In order to access you will need to input the url provided when creating a
database within the url text field on any browser.
SUMMARY

Now you will be able to create a database and manipulate its structure.
Either by cloning it or deleting it and using the related application interfaces
to modify the database objects. In order for you to be able to recall the
processes and the location of the Oracle services. Practice should be your
primary objective.

In the next chapter you will learn about Oracle Net Services which are used
to gain access to the database by the users
