Table 5-1 Table Describing the Steps in the Oracle Data Profiling and Data Quality Upgrade Process
| Step | Description | More Information |
|---|---|---|
|
Install and Configure Oracle Data Integrator 11g |
In 11g Oracle Data Integrator and the Oracle Data Quality products are installed and configured separately. |
For installation steps, refer to Oracle Fusion Middleware Installation Guide for Oracle Data Integrator |
|
Understand the Oracle Data Profiling and Oracle Data Quality Upgrade Starting Points |
Before you upgrade the Oracle Data Profiling and Oracle Data Quality components for Oracle Data Integrator, ensure that your environment meets the installation and configuration requirements. |
See Section 7.1.1, "Understand the Supported Upgrade Starting Points". |
|
Backup the Repository |
Oracle recommends that you create a backup copy of the entire Oracle Data Quality Products Repository before performing the upgrade |
|
|
Install Oracle Data Profiling and Quality 11g |
Use the Oracle Installer to install Oracle Data Profiling and Quality. Do not create any metabases until the upgrade has completed successfully. |
See Section 7.1.3, "Install Oracle Data Profiling and Oracle Data Quality for Data Integrator". |
|
If the Oracle Data Quality 11g repository is not installed on the same server as Oracle Data Quality installation, copy the entire repository directory to the new Oracle Data Quality installation. |
If your Oracle Data Quality installation is on a different server than your previous installation, you must copy the entire existing repository directory (including all subdirectories) to a temporary location on the Oracle Data Quality server. You can delete this temporary directory after you complete the migration task. |
See Section 7.1.4, "Copy the Existing Repository to the Oracle Data Quality Server". |
|
Remove any user-defined metabases, users, or loader connections from the 11g repository |
The 11g target repository must not contain any user-defined metabases, users, or loader connections. Although the upgrade process alerts you if any of these items exist, it is recommended that you check the repository before beginning the upgrade process. |
See Section 7.1.5, "Remove User-Defined Metabases and Users". |
|
Upgrade the Metabase Repository |
Run the Oracle Data Profiling and Quality upgrade executables after all of the pre-upgrade tasks have been completed. |
|
|
Perform any required post-upgrade configurations. |
You may need to reapply custom settings and reconnect to your metabases after the upgrade. |
|
|
Validate the Upgrade Process |
Validate that the metabases and loader connections are available in the Control Admin panel. |
