If your database software is installed and
the database
server is running, you can create and configure a database either
prior to installing IBM® Rational® Asset Manager,
or while using the Rational Asset Manager server
setup application. If you are using IBM DB2®, the server setup application
can create the databases for you.

If you are using IBM WebSphere® Application Server and DB2 and choose to create your database
with the Rational Asset Manager server
setup application, skip this section.
