4> Create db Authentication db_name= ...
5> connect to the instance
6> Create a server parameter file
7> start the Instance

You have given the details for Cognos Configuration area

oracle? (For example i want to create database name CM).

Oracle Enterprise Manager? The same User ID & Password we have to
