3 Release installation

In this chapter, the generic process for Installing an OHI Components application release is described.
Release specific instructions are documented in the Release Notes for that specific release.

3.1 Install Database Objects

3.1.1 Change Installation Configuration

1. In <OHI_ROOT>/util/install, make a copy of ohi_install.cfg.template and name it ohi_install.cfg.
2. Edit ohi_install.cfg to contain your specific database connection data and other configuration settings. The settings are explained in the file itself.

By default, the schema passwords will be similar to the schema user names. The ohi_install.cfg files allows the specification of different passwords. Alternatively, specify empty string passwords to have the option of entering the passwords at the command prompt. In the latter case, the passwords will not end up in a configuration file.

Default schema passwords should not be used.

Oracle recommends that schema passwords are entered at the command prompt. Never store passwords in configuration files.
