Shared Databases

Shared databases are sent to all Design Studio clients being activated by (getting license from) the Management Console.

To simplify the user interface, these databases are configured on a cluster.

  • To make databases available in a certain cluster and in Design Studio clients, select the cluster in the Shared Databases window and make sure a database mapping exists that points to this database. You can check database mappings on the Repository > Databases tab. Choose All Clusters to make databases from all clusters available in Design Studio clients.

  • To define a special set of databases that are available for Design Studio, you can create a special cluster. This approach may be useful if you prefer not to send production databases to Design Studio.

The default cluster named Production is automatically created for shared databases.
