Is it still possible to initialise an external database with Spring Batch 6 and Spring Boot 4?

The docs of Spring Boot Initialize a Spring Batch Database still say you should set

spring:
  batch:
    jdbc:
      initialize-schema: "always"

But there is no property there anymore. And I haven't found a way to do it? Maybe more of a Spring Boot question, but I believe here is the best place to ask.

Found the problem. I used spring-boot-starter-batch instead of spring-boot-starter-batch-jdbcas starter. You need to read the migration guide and the how-to section to find this. I don't know if this is the best experience for a first time user.
