DBCA
The DBCA is a Java based tool used to create a database, either from a template
or from scratch. This tool is useful to perform ASM configuration and manage
RAC services.
The available options are as follows:
Create
a
Database
: This option guides you through the steps of database creation. A
database can be created from an existing template, which may or may not include the
database files. This option allows you to not only create the database, it also allows
you to save the database configuration as a new template. It can save the database
creation and configuration as scripts which can be used for future reference, or to
manually create the database.
Conigure
Database
Options
: This option is used to configure additional options
after database creation. This option is disabled if there are currently no databases.
The options you can configure here are Data Mining, Text, OLAP, Spatial, Ultra
Search, and Label Security. If you have not already configured Enterprise Manager,
you can also do it from this option, and you can also configure the Sample Schemas.
Other options available are the Standard Database Components, the JVM, XML DB,
and Intermedia.
Delete
a
Database
: This option removes the physical database files. You must only
use this if you are certain you want to delete the database, as this operation cannot be
undone. Make sure you have a backup prior to deleting anything of even small value.
