Note:
If your machine configuration already meets the criteria specified in this chapter, proceed to Installing Oracle GoldenGate Monitor.
The certification matrix and system requirements documents should be used in conjunction with each other to verify that your environment meets the necessary requirements for installation.
Make sure that you are installing your product on a supported hardware or software configuration. For more information, see the certification document for your release on the Oracle Fusion Middleware Supported System Configurations page.
Oracle has tested and verified the performance of your product on all certified systems and environments; whenever new certifications occur, they are added to the proper certification document right away. New certifications can occur at any time, and for this reason the certification documents are kept outside of the documentation libraries and are available on Oracle Technology Network.
The Oracle Fusion Middleware System Requirements and Specifications document should be used to verify that the requirements of the certification are met. For example, if the certification document indicates that your product is certified for installation on 64-Bit Oracle Linux 5, this document should be used to verify that your Oracle Linux 5 system has met the required minimum specifications, like disk space, available memory, specific platform packages and patches, and other operating system-specific items. System requirements can be updated at any time, and for this reason the system requirement documents are kept outside of the documentation libraries and are available on Oracle Technology Network.
The target machine is that computer on which you are running the Oracle GoldenGate Monitor instance. Download and install Java SE, JDK 8u40 and greater, on your target machine using the instructions at:
http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/downloads/index.html
After you complete the installation, add entries for the JDK bin
directory (for example, jdk1.8.0_40/bin
) to your JAVA_HOME
and PATH
environment variables.
Install Oracle WebLogic Server 12c (12.2.1) with JRF or Oracle WebLogic Server 12c (12.2.1) with JRF and JDBC. Oracle GoldenGate Monitor runs as an Oracle WebLogic Server plugin and requires one of these Oracle WebLogic Server products to be installed.
Install Oracle WebLogic Server into the directory in which you are installing Oracle GoldenGate Monitor. Installing either of these Oracle WebLogic Server products will create an Oracle Middleware home (ORACLE_HOME
). An (ORACLE_HOME
) is required for installing Oracle GoldenGate Monitor.
For more installation instructions and downloads, see the Oracle WebLogic Server web site:
http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/middleware/weblogic/downloads/index.html
Oracle GoldenGate Monitor supports these databases:
Table 2-1 Supported Database
Database | Version | Documentation |
---|---|---|
Oracle |
11gR2, 12c |
|
SQL Server |
2012 |
2012: |
The SQL Server databases do not support the Oracle Platform Security Service (OPSS) so configuring them requires different steps than the Oracle database. If you are installing either of these non-Oracle databases, you should familiarize yourself with these additional steps, see Configuring Oracle GoldenGate Monitor Server for SQL Server Databases.
Oracle Fusion Middleware only supports schemas in a byte-mode database. The nls_length_semantics
initialization parameter on the database where the schemas reside must be set to BYTE
; setting this parameter to CHAR
is not supported.
To check the values of this parameter using SQL*Plus, you can use the show parameters command:
prompt> sqlplus "sys/password as sysdba"SQL> show parameters nls_length_semantics
Replace password with the actual password for the SYS user.
Alternatively, you can check the values by querying the V$PARAMETER
view:
prompt> sqlplus "sys/password as sysdba"SQL> select name,value from v$parameter;
With the prerequisites met, you will now install Oracle GoldenGate Monitor. For instructions, see Installing Oracle GoldenGate Monitor
