Preface

On the IBM z/OS platform, Oracle GoldenGate for DB2 runs natively on UNIX System Services (USS), also known as Open MVS (OMVS). With Oracle GoldenGate, you can move data between similar or dissimilar supported DB2 for z/OS versions, or you can move data between a DB2 for z/OS database and a database of another type, such as Oracle or DB2 for LUW. Oracle GoldenGate for DB2 on the z/OS platform supports the filtering, mapping, and transformation of data, unless otherwise noted in this documentation.

This guide helps you get started with installing Oracle GoldenGate on a DB2 z/OS database system and performing initial setup. Refer to the other Oracle GoldenGate documentation listed in this Preface for additional information to configure, run, and manage your Oracle GoldenGate environment.

Audience

This guide is intended for installers, database administrators, and system administrators who are installing, configuring and running Oracle GoldenGate.
