On this activity we are going to install the sample schemas on a 26ai DB
First we need to download file from here:

https://docs.oracle.com/en/database/oracle/oracle-database/26/comsc/installing-sample-schemas.html

unzip and go to directory you want to install:

[oracle@olinux8 human_resources]$ pwd
/tmp/db-sample-schemas-23.3/human_resources

Connect to the PDB and run the install (it will ask for HR password):

SQL> ALTER SESSION SET CONTAINER=DBTEST23PDB1;
Session altered.
SQL> show con_name
CON_NAME
------------------------------
DBTEST23PDB1


SQL> @hr_install.sql

Thank you for installing the Oracle Human Resources Sample Schema.
This installation script will automatically exit your database session
at the end of the installation or if any error is encountered.
The entire installation will be logged into the 'hr_install.log' log file.

Enter a password for the user HR:


Enter a tablespace for HR [USERS]:
