Identity Governance requires that you have a database server or a database instance running the specific version of the supported database platform before starting the Identity Governance installation. You can use an existing database server or instance, however, you or the database administrator must be able to create the required databases for Identity Governance and Identity Reporting.
Ensure that you have a supported database installed and running that meets the system requirements. For the supported databases, see Section 2.4.2, Database Requirements.
Identity Governance and Identity Reporting require that specific databases exist with specific names to have these products function. There are multiple ways to create specific databases. For more information, see Section 5.0, Creating Databases for Identity Governance and Components.
