Yes, you should be able to do that. I've done it using PostgreSQL. You should only need to adjust the 'db.url' found in config/dspace.cfg to point to the database server instead of 'localhost'. So, if you install DSpace on (let us say) ir.example.com, using a PostgreSQL database named 'irdb', and your DBMS is running on dbms.example.com then you might configure: db.url = jdbc:postgresql://dbms.example.com:5432/irdb I've not yet used Oracle, so I hesitate to provide an example of that, but if you are familiar with Oracle then you should be able to work out the corresponding adjustments to db.url. No other changes to DSpace should be required. Of course you need to ensure that your DBMS is configured to permit access to the requested database from the requesting host using the configured credentials (db.username, db.password), and that any firewalls permit the packets to pass between the two hosts. -- Mark H.
