Creating The Database

Follow the steps below to set up a Remote H2: database:

Preparing the remote H2 database

Download and install the H2 database engine on your computer as follows.
Info
For instructions on installing, see the H2 installation guide.

Go to the <H2_HOME>/bin/ directory and run the H2 network server starting script as follows, where <H2_HOME> is the H2 installation directory:
Image Removed
Run the H2 database server with the following commands:
- For Linux:
```
$ ./h2.sh
```
- For Windows:
```
$ h2.bat
```
Info
The script starts the database engine and opens a pop-up window.
Click Start Browser to open a web browser containing a client application, which you use to connect to a database. If a database does not already exist by the name you provided in the JDBC URL text box, H2 will automatically create a database.

Setting up drivers

WSO2 currently ships H2 database engine version h2-1.2.140.* and its related H2 database driver. If you want to use a different H2 database driver, take the following steps:

Delete the following H2 database-related JAR file, which is shipped with WSO2 products:
<PRODUCT_HOME>/repository/components/plugins/h2-database-engine_1.2.140.wso2v3.jar
Find the JAR file of the new H2 database driver (<H2_HOME>/bin/h2-*.jar, where <H2_HOME> is the H2 installation directory) and copy it to your WSO2 product's <PRODUCT_HOME>/repository/components/lib/ directory.

Creating database tables

Create the database tables either manually by running a script or automatically by using a startup parameter as follows:

...

You can create database tables manually by logging into the created database and executing the following scriptss in H2 shell or web console:

shared:Setting up Remote H2 (V1)
	shared:Setting up Remote H2 (V1)

Changing the identity/storage databases

The topics above show how to change the WSO2_CARBON_DB, which is used to store registry and user manager information. If you set up a separate database for identity/storage related data, the instructions are the same. In summary:

Add the datasource to the master-datasources.xml file.
Create the database tables using the following scripts:
For the identity database
Use <PRODUCT_HOME>/dbscripts/identity/h2.sql
For the storage database
Use <PRODUCT_HOME>/dbscripts/storage/h2.sql

...

Follow the steps below to run the script in web console:

Run the ./h2.sh command to start the web console.
Copy the script text from the SQL file.
Paste it into the console.
Click Run.

After setting up the database tables, start the server by executing one of the following commands:

For Linux:
```
sh wso2server.sh
```

For Windows:
```
wso2server.bat
```

...

You can create database tables automatically when starting the product for the first time by using the -Dsetup parameter as follows:

For Linux:
```
sh wso2server.sh -Dsetup
```

For Windows:
```
wso2server.bat -Dsetup
```

Creating A Datasource For The Database

After creating the database, you create a datasource to point to it in the following files:

Edit the default datasource configuration defined in the master-datasources.xml file, located in the <PRODUCT_HOME>/repository/conf/datasources/ directory instance, as follows. The database configurations in registry.xml and user-mgt.xml refer to this datasource.

Info
Replace the `url`, `username`, `password` and `driverClassName` settings with your custom values and also the other values accordingly in the `master-datasources.xml` file as shown below.

Code Block

language	html/xml

<datasource>
      <name>WSO2_CARBON_DB</name>
      <description>The datasource used for registry and user manager</description>
      <jndiConfig>
           <name>jdbc/WSO2CarbonDB</name>
      </jndiConfig>
      <definition type="RDBMS">
           <configuration>
               <url>jdbc:h2:tcp://localhost/~/registryDB;create=true</url>
               <username>regadmin</username>
               <password>regadmin</password>
               <driverClassName>org.h2.Driver</driverClassName>
               <maxActive>80</maxActive>
               <maxWait>60000</maxWait>
               <minIdle>5</minIdle>
               <testOnBorrow>true</testOnBorrow>
               <validationQuery>SELECT 1</validationQuery>
               <validationInterval>30000</validationInterval>
           </configuration>
      </definition>
</datasource>

Following are the datasource configuration options:

url - The URL of the database.
username - The name of the database user.
password - The password of the database user.
driverClassName - The class name of the database driver.
maxActive - The maximum number of active connections that can be allocated from this pool at the same time, or enter a negative value for no limit.
maxWait - The maximum number of milliseconds that the pool will wait (when there are no available connections) for a connection to be returned before throwing an exception. You can enter zero or a negative value to wait indefinitely.
minIdle - The minimum number of active connections that can remain idle in the pool, without extra ones being created, or enter zero to create none.
testOnBorrow - The indication of whether objects will be validated before being borrowed from the pool. If the object fails to validate, it will be dropped from the pool, and another attempt will be made to borrow another.
validationQuery - The SQL query that will be used to validate connections from this pool before returning them to the caller.
validationInterval - The indication to avoid excess validation, and only run validation at the most, at this frequency (time in milliseconds). If a connection is due for validation, but has been validated previously within this interval, it will not be validated again.
Info
For more information on other parameters that can be defined in the master-datasources.xml file, see Tomcat JDBC Connection Pool .

If you changed the databases used for identity and storage , copy the WSO2_CARBON_DB datasource configuration for each of them in < PRODUCT_HOME>/repository/conf/datasources/master-datasources.xml file and replace its default values with your custom values.
Replace the default values in the datasource configurations of the following files with your custom values accordingly, to point to the created registry and user manager, identity and storage databases.
<PRODUCT_HOME>/repository/conf/identity.xml
<PRODUCT_HOME>/repository/conf/user-mgt.xml

<PRODUCT_HOME>/repository/conf/registry.xml
