The Maximo contains an extremely useful command to create a demo database filled with a sample data. This can be really helpful when learning haw Maximo works.
Tho create the demo database perform these steps.
- Stop the application server (MXServer)
- Open a command prompt
- Move to:[SMP_DIR]\maximo\tools\maximo
- Issue the following command:
maxinst -s[INDEXTABLESPACE] -t[DATATABLESPACE]
By default both tablespaces are equals to MAXDATA so the following command should work.
maxinst -sMAXDATA -tMAXDATA
To create an empty databasse add the -imaximo parameter.
maxinst -imaximo -sMAXDATA -tMAXDATA
For further details about the maxdemo command see this IBM technote.
