Managing
Workspaces
The second main function of the Administrators
area is to manage the Workspaces which are used in the system. A
workspace is an area where applications can be developed. Database
schemas are associated with a workspace as well as users. Lastly, a
workspace is assigned some storage space in the database in which to
save data. The interface can manage each of the workspaces.
The Manage Workspaces area can be accessed by
clicking on the Manage Workspaces icon shown in Figure 15.1.
Actions that can be performed here are explained
in Table 15.1. Some of the actions are self-explanatory and will not
be covered in detail.

Creating a Workspace
This function
is used to manually create a workspace. Also, the schema for the
workspace can be defined as well an administrator for the workspace.
1.
To create a workspace, click on the Create Workspace link.
2.
On the Create Workspace page, fill in the name of the
workspace. Optionally a description of the workspace can be given.
Click on Next.
3.
On the next page, the schema and storage requirements will be
given. If a schema already exists to be used, choose YES to re-use an
existing schema. For the Schema Name, supply the name for the
existing schema to re-use or the name of the new schema. This will
become an actual user in the database. Next, provide the password for
that schema.
The Space Quota for the workspace is also
specified here. There are only four choices available: Small (2 MBs);
Medium (5 MBs); Large (50 MBs); or Very Large (100 MBs). The amount
can be augmented later, if needed.
4.
The next page in the wizard is where the administrator for the
workspace is given. This is a user who can administer the particular
workspace through the developers interface. See the Managing
Workspaces section later in this chapter.
5.
This next page is the confirmation page where a summary of the
choices are provided. Create the Workspace by clicking on the Create
button.
The workspace, workspace administrator, and space
will be created at this point.
