The configuration assistant usually launches after the initial setup and after major version upgrades where it updates the database schema and configures new components. The configuration assistant is also used to initialize any new databases.
•Configure a new SMTP action if no SMTP action is current setup

•Setup a new database, including action, if no database actions are currently configured
•Setup and configure an individual database if launched from a database action dialog in the management console
•Install & configure the heartbeat agent
•Install & configure the network services
•Install & configure the ADMonitor component
The configuration assistant is automatically launched after every installation / upgrade. |

Command-Line Parameters
The utility supports a single command line parameter, "/initdb", which needs to be followed by the name of a database action. For example:

This will either initialize the database pointed to by the "Primary Database" action, or update the existing database to the latest schema.
