Hi ,
I am trying to install Metadata repository on the same machine where engine and domain will be installed. Version is 8.7 on Windows. In earlier version repository was on Oracle server outside this machine .
What should be my initial steps to setup metadata repository on the same machine ?

Any help is appreciated !

Thank you

Follow precisely the instructions in the Planning, Installation and Configuration Guide.

The answer varies quite a bit depending on what database you are trying to use. If you are going to use the included, free copy of DB2, then it is installed automatically as part of the process. If you are going to use a local copy of Oracle, then you'll need to install the Oracle software and then setup the Oracle database prior to performing the install.

Note: Please read the Planning, Installation and Configuration Guide sections on Oracle before setting it up. Please make sure it is a supported revision as well.

Here's the procedure to pre-install the Oracle Database
