Hi,

I just installed Oracle 10g. On one of the installation screens, I
unchecked the box prompting to 'Create a starter database'. Later,
after the prerequsite checks, a screen appeared with the title 'Select
configuration option' with the following options:

 [] Create a database
 [] Configure ASM
    [] Some other options
 [] Install database software only

I selected 'Create a database' thinking that it would prompt me to
enter the type e.g. general-purpose, transaction-processing, etc.
Instead, it prompted me to give the database a name, character set,
whether I wanted the sample schemas or not, and later, the passwords.

The first time I installed it, I must have opted for 'Create the
starter database' option. I ran DBCA, selected the option to configure
an existing database, and selected the database I just created, however
all of the options were greyed out. My question is... how do I view
edit the settings for making the DB general-purpose,
transaction-processing, etc?

I realise that these are just default setting that need to be tweeked
anyway, but I'd like to know...

Thanks in advance for any replies.

- Best regards,
 Lee
