2 OSM System Requirements
This chapter describes the Oracle Communications Order and Service Management (OSM) system requirements. It also describes information you need during the installation procedure.
Software Requirements
For details about the software required to support the OSM components for traditional deployment, see "OSM Traditional Deployment Software Compatibility" in OSM Compatibility Matrix.
Information Requirements
You must supply configuration-related information when you install OSM. Some of this information is determined during the installation. However, some information should already have been determined before the OSM installation is begun. Gather this information in advance.
Note:
You can obtain most of the required configuration information from your Oracle database administrator (DBA) and your system administrator.
Oracle Database Information
The information in Table 2-1 is needed to connect to an Oracle database instance.
Table 2-1 Oracle Database Connection Information
| Information Type | Description |
|---|---|
|
Database Instance Host |
The IP address or DNS name of the database instance on which the OSM schema will be installed. If you plan to use an Oracle RAC database, you need the Single Client Access Name (SCAN) for this field. |
|
Database Instance Port |
The port on which the database instance to which the OSM schema will be installed is listening. |
|
Database Instance SID |
The SID of the database instance on which the OSM schema will be installed. |
|
Database Service Name |
The name of the service used for OSM client connections. |
If the OSM database users have been created prior to the OSM installation, you must gather the information in Table 2-2 before installing OSM. If they have not been created, you can determine the following information during the installation.
Table 2-2 Oracle Database Credential Information
| Information Type | Description |
|---|---|
|
Core Schema User name |
The OSM core schema username. |
|
