2.2.1 Prerequisites

Before configuring True Cache, complete the following prerequisites.

  • Set up a network path to access the primary (source) database with an Easy Connect (EZConnect) string from the True Cache node.
  • Install the Oracle Database software on the True Cache nodes.

  • Ensure that a primary database is running on the primary node in archive logging (ARCHIVELOG) mode.

    The primary database must be in ARCHIVELOG mode to ship redo log files to the True Cache node. Oracle DBCA verifies that the primary database is in ARCHIVELOG mode.

    If the primary database is not in ARCHIVELOG mode, restart it in mount mode, run the ALTER DATABASE ARCHIVELOG command, and open the primary database again.

  • Don't set LOG_ARCHIVE_CONFIG and LOG_ARCHIVE_DEST_n on the primary database. True Cache automatically configures these for the primary database.
