    Cretate database from template [SOLVED]

    Running Oracle 9...

    I've generated a databasetemplate under ../asssistants/dbca/templates/TEMP.dbt
    Is there anyway NOT using dbca to create a database from
    templates?

    Added:
    What I did was creating this template using dbca.
    I've read in a newsgroup that during this process you have a checkbox
    for creating scripts. But I didn't find any checkbox for this..
    I want a shellscript!!!

    Found that you can run dbca in silent mode...

    dbca -help

    use dbca but at the end dont create the database, but save it as a script. Then you have a bunch of scripts you can edit each time and run again and again

    Select new database option, only with this option, you can find check box option to create DB scripts, You can find this option just before proceeding for DB creation. Scripts will be created under $ORACLE_BASE/admin/SID/scripts.

    Hope this helps.

    davey23uk, OK you mean that I should skip the -createDatabase option ?

    # dbca -silent -createDatabase -templateName BUZZ.dbt -gdbname BUZZ -sid BUZZ -datafileJarLocation /SSW/oracle/product/9.2/assistants/dbca/templates -datafileDestination /local/db/oracle/oradata -responseFile NO_VALUE -characterset WE8ISO8859P1

    and add a redirect >myscript.sh ??

    no, i mean use dbca as normal with the gui, go through the options and select save to script at the end (its a tick box)

    I've never used the silent mode so I dont know if that will work

    I don't want to use the GUI, thats the point....


    And I can't find the "tickbox" for this...

    The template-generation is a 8 step procedure..

    I start dbca
    1. Manage Templates
    2. From Existing Template
    3. New Database (No database files)
    4. Specify a name
    5. Database features
    6. Database Connection options (Shared Server Mode)
    7. Initialization Parameters
    8. Database Storage (file locations)

    No "tickbox"....

    The above will create a .dbt fil under assistants/dbca/templates/

    Well anyway this seems to be the solution to my problem.

    # dbca -silent -createDatabase -templateName BUZZ.dbt -gdbname BUZZ -sid BUZZ -datafileJarLocation /SSW/oracle/product/9.2/assistants/dbca/templates -datafileDestination /local/db/oracle/oradata -responseFile NO_VALUE -characterset WE8ISO8859P1
