The MRO installation process is a simple process that creates a directory structure containing the MRO binaries, scripts, JRE and associated files. There are no configuration steps during installation.
To install MRO software
Verify that the operating system (OS) patch levels are at the current level required to support Java 1.4.2. This is needed to support the java runtime environment (JRE) that is installed with MRO.
For more information about this requirement, see the Mirror Replication for Oracle Installation Guide.
Download the MRO product from either the Sybase download site or from the CD that is provided.
From the download site, navigate to the directory where the MRO software has been downloaded, uncompressed, and extracted. Download the Mirror Activator for Oracle 12.6 for Sun Solaris (CD20119-55-1260-01.tgz).
From the CD – insert the MRO CD into your CD drive.
Launch InstallShield by executing the setup routine for Solaris:
./setupsolaris
If you see an error message saying that there is not enough temporary disk space, add the following to your setup command:
./setupsolaris –is:tempdir someDirectory
where someDirectory is a directory with at least 100MB of disk space that the installation program can use.
If you are installing from a remote machine and do not
have an
X-windows client, execute ./setupsolaris –console,
to run in console mode.
On the Welcome window, click Next.
Select a geographic location that displays the license agreement. Select I agree and click Next.
Enter the directory where you want to install MRO:
If the directory does not exist, the installation program prompts you to create it. Click Yes to create it.
If the destination directory exists, you receive a warning message that you are installing into an existing directory. Click Yes.
Select Typical for the installation setup type and click Next.
The installation program displays a summary of what is to be installed. Click Next.
The installation program starts to install MRO, displaying the progress status. If you see a message, “there are newer files already installed and do you want to replace them?” Click No, to all.
When you receive a message that indicates that the installation was successful, click Next.
When you receive a message indicating that MRO was successfully installed, click Finish.
For additional information about the installation process and the installation program, see the Mirror Replication Agent for Oracle Installation Guide.
