Creating a production database

Disponible con licencia de Production Mapping.

All the databases that contain data used for your product are displayed at the Production Data level, whether they are production databases or not. The Create Production Database command is activated if your database doesn't have any of the tables necessary for your geodatabase to perform as a production database and adds them if you choose to upgrade.

A regular database
Example of a database that doesn't have the production database schema; there is no production icon next to the database icon.

If you are working with an geodatabase corporativa, you can only access the Create Production Database command if you connect as the schema owner for the workspace.
