If your organization already has established a database server with Oracle or Microsoft SQL Server and you have the permissions necessary to create databases on the server, you can create a new Synthesis enterprise repository by choosing File > Manage Repository > New Enterprise Repository.
Tip: If you need to be able to create an enterprise database without using a Synthesis desktop application (i.e., without taking up one of the available license seats), you can access this same feature from the Synthesis Admin tool.
You can choose to create the new database in either Oracle or Microsoft SQL Server.
If you choose SQL Server, you will be required to enter:
Server Name: The name of the Microsoft SQL Server implementation where the new database will be created. Note that if you are using SQL Server Express, the server name is usually your login for that computer followed by \SQLEXPRESS (e.g., Username\SQLEXPRESS).
Database Name: The name of the new database that will be created.
If you choose Oracle, you will be required to enter:
Port, Host and Service identifiers for the Oracle server where the new database will be created.
The Schema of the new Enterprise database.
The Password for the new enterprise database schema.
The administrative username and password for the Oracle server (entered in the Admin Information area).
For either server type, select the Import from existing repository check box if you want to import entire projects and other data from an existing database.
Click OK to create the database. The database will not open automatically; you must connect to it. (See Connecting to an Existing Enterprise Repository.)
