Creating or upgrading Content Manager databases
Before you install or upgrade the Content Manager application server, you must either create or upgrade some Content Manager databases.
The Content Manager databases can reside on either a Microsoft SQL Server or Oracle database server. Your database server must be installed with the approved version of database software before beginning with these procedures.
Depending on the version from which you are upgrading, do one of the following:
- If you are upgrading from a version older than Tridion Docs 15, you need to create the following new databases: for Backend for Frontend (BFF), Access Management, Tridion Docs Identity Provider and Metrics.
- If you are upgrading from Tridion Docs 15, you only need to upgrade your Access Management database and create the Metrics database.
- If you are applying Tridion Docs 15.1 Update 1 to your Tridion Docs 15.1 implementation, you only need to run a database update script.
