Hi Valraj

I written there steps to Configure Cognos8 with Oracle
Database. After read ur's view I come to know that you do
not have single Day exp. in Cognos so you asking ambiguous
things.

My answer was to help Real time working Associate who have
any trouble to configure cognos, Not for any false or fake
candidate to Qualifying Any Interview.

Create any Database on Oracle is not responsibility of a
Cognos Reporting team. Oracle Functional or DBA Associate
will responsible for Database creation in Oracle.
Securities can be Define at Cognos framework manager for
Cognos Reporting.

Being a OCA Certified associate I can tell you few steps
for create Database at Oracle it may help you beco’z I come
to know that u r a beginner in IT industry:
Steps are:

1> Create initialization file spfle &pfile
( '/ora/xyz/int.ora; )

2> Create a database creation script (@crdb.sql)

3> Connect to the instance

4> Decide &set ORACLE_SID

4> Create db Authentication db_name= ...

5> connect to the instance

6> Create a server parameter file

7> start the Instance

8> Issue the create Database

9> create Additional tablespaces

10> Run script to build Data Dictionary view

11> Run script to install any additional reqiered

For Create a password u may write script as:
Create user username identified by passward default
tablespace data quata unlimited on data;

on unix env. you may write as:
$ orapwd file= $ORACLE_HOME/dbs/orapwxyz
password = oracle

having skills so rather than showing urself superior you
should concentrate on bringing others up.

Thanks for your help Vidya.
You have given the details for Cognos Configuration area
only. Can you help me how to create a new database in
oracle? (For example i want to create database name CM).
Also how to give access permission(User-ID and Password) for
that database in oracle. In SQL SERVER 2000, we can create
new database directly(Just Right clicking New database) also
we can give login details in Security area of SQL Server
Enterprise Manager. Like that Can we create in
Oracle Enterprise Manager? The same User ID & Password we have to
give in Cognos Configuration. Pls help me.

Move to framework manager bin and select cogconfigw and
select the content store and name the Database name as orcl
and give the port number related to orcl.And select any
oracle Database and create it in cognos connection.
This is my view.
