Installer Execution

Specifies the steps for installing Oracle Airlines Data Model.

Installer Execution

Before you install Oracle Airlines Data Model, perform the necessary pre-installation tasks.

Note:

You must install Oracle Airlines Data Model on the "localhost" where the database server is located. You can determine the value of your "localhost" by issuing the following command where db-name is the name of your Oracle Database:

tnsname db-name

Follow these steps to install Oracle Airlines Data Model:

  1. Log in using the user id that you plan to use to run the installation. You should use the same user id to install Oracle Airlines Data Model as used to install the Oracle Database and Oracle Business Intelligence Suite Extended Edition.
  2. Set the ORACLE_HOME environment variable to the location of the Database on which to install Oracle Airlines Data Model.

    For example, suppose that Oracle home is in the directory /loc/app/oracle/product/12.1/

    In a Bourne, Bash, or Korn shell, use these commands to set ORACLE_HOME:

    $ ORACLE_HOME=/loc/app/oracle/product/12.1/
    $ export ORACLE_HOME
    

    In a C shell, use this command to set ORACLE_HOME:

    % setenv ORACLE_HOME /loc/app/oracle/product/12.1/
    
  3. Start the installer from the directory that contains the Oracle Airlines Data Model installation files:
    cd directory-containing-OADM_installation-files
    ./runInstaller
    
  4. The Welcome page is displayed. Click Next.
  5. In the Select Installation Type page, select the type of Oracle Airlines Data Model installation that you want to perform:
    • If you want to install the Oracle Airlines Data Model component, select Airlines Data Model.

    • If you want to install the Oracle Airlines Data Model sample reports and sample data, select Sample Reports.

    Oracle Airlines Data Model supports English and 9 other languages. To add support for one language in addition to English, click Product Languages and select the language.

    Click Next.

  6. In the Specify Home Details page, verify that the Name and Path correspond to the Database in which you want to install Oracle Airlines Data Model. You can click Browse to navigate to any valid local data file path.

    Click Next.

  7. In the Product-Specific Prerequisite Checks page, if one or more items are flagged, manually verify that your environment meets the minimum requirements. For details about performing this manual verification, click the flagged item and review the details in the box at the bottom of the page.

    When the status of all items are checked as Succeeded, click Next.

  8. In the Specify Database Connection Information page, provide the following information:
    • Select the Net Service Name which is the alias used for a connect descriptor to connect to the Oracle Database where Oracle Airlines Data Model is installed.

      Note:

      In a multitenant environment, select PDB as the Net Service Name, not CDB. For example, use pdborcl for the Net Service Name.

      Tip:

      A net service name is a simple name for a service that resolves to a connect descriptor. Net service names are populated from the OracleHome/network/admin/tnsnames.ora file.

    • Enter the Password for SYSTEM user of the Oracle Database where Oracle Airlines Data Model will be installed.

    Click Next.

  9. The Specify Schema Information page shows when you select to install the component, Airlines Data Model. In this dialog specify where all of the data files that correspond to the Oracle Airlines Data Model tablespace should reside:
    • If you do not want to use the Automatic Storage Management (ASM) feature in Oracle Database, but instead want to explicitly specify a folder name, then select File System and enter a folder name (ensure that the location you select is one where the database can create data files). Click Browse to navigate to any valid local data file path.

      Click Next.

    • If you store your Oracle Database files using the Automatic Storage Management (ASM) feature, and also intend to store Oracle Airlines Data Model data files using ASM, then select Automatic Storage Management (ASM).

      Click Next.

      In the Select ASM Disk Group page, select the disk group in which you want to install the Oracle Airlines Data Model data files.

      Click Next.

  10. The Specify Sample Schema Information page shows when you select to install the Sample Reports.
    • If you do not want to use the Automatic Storage Management (ASM) feature in Oracle Database, but instead want to explicitly specify a folder name, select File System and enter a folder name. Click Browse to navigate to any valid local data file path.

      Click Next.

    • If you store your Oracle Database files using the Automatic Storage Management (ASM) feature, and you also intend to store Oracle Airlines Data Model data files using ASM, select Automatic Storage Management (ASM).

      Click Next.

      In the Select ASM Disk Group page, select the disk group in which you want to install the Oracle Airlines Data Model data files.

      Click Next. When you install the sample reports, the next page shows the installer Summary that summarizes the information that you specified, as shown in step 12.

  11. In the Specify Calendar Date Range page, specify the calendar date range by providing values for Start Date and Number of Years. The installer uses this information to populate the calendar data. A recommended Number of Years value is 15. Specifying larger Number of Years values proportionally increases the time it takes to implement the partitioning portion of Oracle Airlines Data Model install activity. The start year specified with Start Date should be the lowest possible dates from your historical data load. There is no easy method to incrementally extend the time dimension, so your initial choice for Number of Years should be specified to meet your needs for a reasonably long time.

    Start Date must be in the format YYYY-MM-DD; for example, 2011-01-20 stands for January 20, 2011. Number of Years must be a whole number.

    Note:

    These calendar dates have nothing to do with the number of years you will effectively keep the data. The calendar as such is totally independent of the Information Lifecycle Management process you may use.

    Click Next.

  12. The installer summarizes the information that you specified on the Summary page. Check that this information is correct. If necessary, click Back to return to previous screens and make corrections. When you are satisfied with the information, click Install.
  13. The Oracle Airlines Data Model component or sample reports are installed. If there are any problems, messages are displayed. After the installation finishes, the end of installation screen appears. Click Exit to end the installer.

After you exit the installer, perform any necessary post-installation tasks. Then install the other components that you need to create an Oracle Airlines Data Model warehouse.
