System: Database Server
This section covers the creation of the NetBackup IT Analytics database. Follow these steps on the same server you installed the Oracle application binaries.
Note:
This step is required only if you have not opted to run create_itanalytics_database.sh as a part of the Itanalyticsinstaller.sh script.
Log in as to your NetBackup IT Analytics Database server.
You must be logged in as a database user. If you already are logged in as root:
Run the NetBackup IT Analytics database installation script to install the NetBackup IT Analytics database objects and schema:
mnt/portal/create_itanalytics_database.sh
Note:
The following dialog will only appear if you are re-installing the NetBackup IT Analytics database (e.g., after a failed attempt)
The installer launches and prompts you to enter the domain name:
Enter your IT Analytics Portal Domain Name: yourcompany.com You entered the following of your IT analytics domain name: yourcompany.com Your IT Analytics Super User Login Account will be admin@yourdomain Is this the correct domain name (y/n)? y
Database files will be extracted and the database schema will be created. This step will take between 5 - 10 minutes to complete.
Next, the installer will load the database with Oracle packages. This step will take between 30 - 60 minutes to complete, depending on your system performance.
The Portal user and the database schema are now created. During this step Oracle may produce messages similar to the following:
mv: cannot stat `/opt/aptare/oracle/lib/EVENT_PACKAGE__PORTAL__2.so': No such file or directory
Note:
These messages can be ignored. Any other exceptions or errors however indicate a potential issue with the installation.

(EACH STEP LOGS TO THE CONSOLE...) ... Completed creation of the NetBackup IT Analytics base schema tables Creating NetBackup IT Analytics <backup product> schema tables ...
The Packages are now validated:
If you do not see the message "Successfully validated ALL Packages" at the end of this step, there is a possible problem with the install and you should save a copy of the installer log and contact the Veritas Support.

The database creation is now complete.
Creation of NetBackup IT Analytics Database completed at Nov 11 18:31:46 PDT 2021 A complete log of this session can be found in the file: /opt/aptare/logs/install/create_itanalytics_database_xxxxx.log
Note:
If the installer reports errors during the install and you are unable to resolve the problem, you should save a copy of the installer log and contact the Veritas Support.
If you do not have a NetBackup IT Analytics license, you can install a trial license which is valid for 60 days with the this command as a root user:
/opt/aptare/utils/installlicenseUI.sh /mnt/portal/foundation_license.slf
Installation of the Database components is now complete.
The NetBackup IT Analytics database is a container database with the pluggable database SCDB attached to it. The data files for the tablespaces are stored in the /data01-06/oradata/scdbpdb directory.
