How to Start the Oracle Database

Prior to starting the Oracle database, the plug-in does not check any dependencies. After the startup, the plug-in verifies that the main processes are running. The main processes for the Oracle database are:

• At least one oracleSID process

• ora_pmon_SID process

Steps

1. In the Common Tasks section of the N1 SPS browser interface, click SAP.

2. In the Oracle Database section of the SAP Tasks page, click Start.

3. Click Run.

4. Select a target host or target host set.

5. Provide the plan variables.

   Install path of the Oracle component to start

   This is a required field. If you do not know the install path, return to the SAP Tasks page and click the View All link.

   Force start the Oracle database

   This option is required when the target host does not meet the SAPS requirement to start the SAP instance. See the SAP installation guide for minimum requirements for starting the SAP instance.
