Selecting a subsystem for the BMC Workbench repository

Product information, such as user preferences and workspaces, is saved in a repository on a DB2 subsystem.

Only BMC Workbench superusers (see Managing user access) can select the DB2 subsystem where the repository is installed.

Tip

After you have stored user preferences and workspaces, BMC recommends that you do not change where the repository is installed. If you have to change your repository, contact BMC Support for advice.

Note

Consider the following guidelines if you have BMC Workbench installations sharing a single BMC Workbench repository:

  • You should have only one UIM HFS data set per BMC Workbench repository. If multiple UIMs share a BMC Workbench repository, they must also share the UIM HFS data set.

  • All BMC Workbench installations must have the same maintenance level (that is, the same PTFs applied).

To select the subsystem

  1. On the New BMC Workbench console's main menu, click Signed in as > Repository.
  2. Select a DB2 subsystem.
  3. Click OK.
  1. On the Classic BMC Workbench console's main menu, click Settings > Server Setup.
  2. Select Workbench Repository.
  3. Select a DB2 subsystem and click OK.
