      Note: If you specify an Oracle SID value, then no additional post-installation changes are required. However, if you specify an Oracle Service Name value, then you must perform the additional configuration steps as described in How to Configure Access to Oracle RAC Databases Using a Service Name Value.

      If you should need to change the Oracle SID value in the future (after iDP has been installed), then you must perform the configuration steps as described in How to Configure Access to Oracle RAC Databases Using a System ID (SID) Value.

    Since WebFOCUS Release 8.0 Version 08 does not support TERADATA as a repository database, Derby is being used. Derby comes with WebFOCUS Release 8.0 Version 08 Client as an in-build database.

  35. In the Database Name field, enter the database name which, by default, is WebFOCUS80.
  36. Enter a valid username and password to access your derby database.
