Issue
With a standalone FIM is derby internal with no url and port?
It is needed for a cluster install!
Is it always external with url and port?
Resolution
The Connection URL is like: jdbc:derby:rsa-fim-config/demoDB;create=true
But during installation, install script will ask for the DB FQDN and Port. We can specify default value as follows, but it will not be used.
DB_FQDN= <Standalone_Machine_fqdn>
DATABASE_PORT=1527
In case of Cluster and derby, we need to specify Admin server FQDN and Port pointing to the internal DB (Derby), as all the managed node will be pointing to same Admin server DB
The Connection URL is like: jdbc:derby://{FIM_AdminServer_FQDN}:{DB_Port}/rsa-fim-config/demoDB;create=true
For cluster during installation, the install script will ask for the DB FQDN and Port and there we can specify values as follows:
DB_FQDN= <Admin_Machine_fqdn>
DATABASE_PORT=1527
