IMPORTANT: Support for Oracle database is optional in Aware IM. Before integrating this database with Aware IM make sure that this option is available in your Aware IM edition.

You need to install Oracle database prior to using Aware IM as it is not included in the Aware IM installation. Before you can start using Aware IM with the Oracle database make sure you do the following:

1. Aware IM manages two databases named BASDB and BASDBTES. The databases must be created manually before using Oracle with Aware IM. Aware IM will NOT create the databases automatically. It is enough to create empty databases without creating any tables – Aware IM will create all the required tables automatically on the first startup.
2. Perform the steps to setup Aware IM connection with the Oracle database using the Aware IM Control Panel in a similar way as for MySQL or SQL Server databases described above. Or if Aware IM is installed as a service, perform manual integration in a similar fashion as described for MySQL and SQL Server databases.
