Managing
metadata
repository
partitions
In an MDS repository, each application (that is, Oracle SOA Suite, Oracle Web
Services Manager, and Oracle Business Process Management) is deployed to its
own partition so that they can be logically separated. This is not to be confused
ations
. A
metadata repository partition
is an independent logical directory with-
in a physical MDS repository that is used to manage metadata of these different
Oracle Fusion Middleware components and applications. You can create, clone,
delete, import, and export metadata from a specified partition. Either Oracle En-
terprise Manager Fusion Middleware Control or WLST command line scripting
can be leveraged for all partition management activities which will be covered
in detail in this section. To view the existing metadata repository partitions avail-
able for the domain, simply log in to Oracle Enterprise Manager Fusion Middle-
ware Control, navigate to
Farm_[Domain_Name]
|
Metadata Repositories
and
click on one of the repositories. Alternatively, you may execute the
listPartitions
MBean operation (discussed shortly).
Creating a new metadata partition
Partitions in a metadata repository can be created by accessing the MDS domain
runtime MBean and invoking the
createMetadataPartition
operation from
the Oracle Enterprise Manager Fusion Middleware Control console. The following
sequence of steps listed describes the order to browse to the
MDSDo-
mainRuntime
MBean and then invoke specific operations that it exposes:
1.
Log in to Oracle Enterprise Manager Fusion Middleware Control.
2.
Expand
Farm_[Domain_Name]
|
WebLogic Domain
, right-click on your
SOA domain and click on
System MBean Browser
.
3.
Navigate to the
MDSDomainRuntime
MBean located under
Application
Defined MBeans

MDSDo-
mainRuntime
and click on the
Operations
tab.
