Installing and Configuring the Database

Install the database and complete the preliminary configuration before installing the Environment. Create databases to hold GEN, LOGAN, and applications data using tools provided by the database vendor.

Make the following decisions. Will you:

  • Use multiple instances of the database?

  • Put Lawson applications and the database on the same system?

  • Use SMS or DMS tablespaces?

  • Use bufferpools?
