Creating the database

When creating the database for your messaging engine using a data store you must do it according to your Relational Database Management System (RDBMS) .

Before you begin

Choose which Relational Database Management System (RDBMS) you want to use for the data store. Unless you are using the embedded Cloudscape Version 10.1.x (Derby) provider, create the database before you create a messaging engine. Make a note of the database parameters that you need for configuring the data source. Refer to Configuring a JDBC data source for a messaging engine for more information.

Procedure

Refer to the documentation for your chosen RDBMS for information about how to create a database.

The default database is an embedded Cloudscape Version 10.1.x (Derby) for a data store. If you have chosen to configure the bus member to use a data store with default settings, it can only be a server. Unless the data store database exists already, the messaging engine creates the database automatically when the messaging engine makes its initial connection.

Sybase tips:
  • Ensure that you create the database server with a page size of at least 4k.
  • Ensure that you set the lock scheme property on your server to the value datarows. This avoids the possibility of a deadlock on the data store tables.
  • Ensure that you set the enable housekeeper GC property on your server to the value 5. This improves the ability of the server to reclaim redundant space within your database when it is under heavy load.
  • Ensure that you select the allow nulls by default option for your database instance. This is required for the correct operation of the messaging engine.
Informix tip: The one-to-one relationship between a messaging engine and a data store means that every messaging engine must have its own database tables. If you are using the Informix® RDBMS, configure a separate database instance for each messaging engine. Problems have been observed in this environment when the data stores for multiple messaging engines were configured to use separate schemas in the same database.
