Chapter 5 Setting up the Repository on any DBMS

Creating a database on the server

The database is the place where the repository will be stored on the DBMS server. The database creation procedure may change from one DBMS to another.

• Use the standard database creation procedure for your DBMS.

Database size

Model versions are usually stored as a set of differences from the previous version. They share the unmodified object versions with the previous version. This does not apply to the first versions (v1 or v1.1), or the baselined versions, that are both stored as a set of fully independent objects. As a rule of thumb, such an independent version takes in the database twice the size of the corresponding model stored in an XML file.
