UNIX with Oracle Database

Before creating an Oracle database, verify:

• The ORACLE_HOME environment variable is set
• The $ORACLE_HOME/bin directory is in your PATH environment variable
• The UNIX account that is used to install the CSE is in the Oracle database administrator group

The create database process for UNIX is similar to the process for Windows. The cse/cse oracle directory includes example parameter files and database creation scripts. There is no equivalent to oradim on UNIX platforms. An Oracle DBA can run the script to create the Oracle database instance with the following commands:

export ORACLE_SID=DBCSE

or

setenv ORACLE_SID DBCSE
sqlplus /nolog
sql> connect sys/<password> as sysdba
sql> start crdbcse.sql
