Database will be created, mounted and opened

• Sql.bsq is used by create database command. It will create the

following things in the database.

• The SYSTEM tablespace

• A rollback segment named SYSTEM in the SYSTEM tablespace
• The SYS and SYSTEM user accounts
• The dictionary base tables and clusters
• Indexes on dictionary tables and sequences for dictionary use
• The roles PUBLIC, CONNECT, RESOURCE, DBA, DELETE_CATALOG_ROLE,
EXECUTE_CATALOG_ROLE, and SELECT_CATALOG_ROLE
• The DUAL table

• Run the following scripts

SQL> @/u01/app/oracle/product/10.1.0/db_1/rdbms/admin/catalog.sql
SQL> @/u01/app/oracle/product/10.1.0/db_1/rdbms/admin/catproc.sql

Catalog.sql runs the following scripts

• standard.sql Creates a package called STANDARD, which contains the

SQL functions to implement basic language features
• cataudit.sql Creates data dictionary views to support auditing
• catexp.sql Creates data dictionary views to support import/export
• catldr.sql Creates data dictionary views to support direct-path load
of SQL*Loader
• catpart.sql Creates data dictionary views to support partitioning
• catadt.sql Creates data dictionary views to support Oracle objects
and types
• catsum.sql Creates data dictionary views to support Oracle summary
management

catproc.sql creates data dictionary views required for PL/SQL

From the name of a script, you can sometimes identify its purpose. The
following list indicates the categories of scripts.
 • cat*.sql Catalog and data dictionary scripts
• dbms*.sql PL/SQL administrative package definitions
• prvt*.plb PL/SQL administrative package code, in wrapped(encrypted)
form

• uNNNNNN.sql Database upgrade/migration scripts

• dNNNNNN.sql Database downgrade scripts
• utl*.sql Additional tables and views needed for database utilities
