NoteItem 5c must equal the database name. For Oracle, this must be the Oracle_SID value. Item 2b may have a different value than the Oracle SID, but this value should match the Oracle SID, not item 2b.

5d

This is the user ID that Mirror Replication Agent uses to log in to the primary database.

pds_user

pds_password

This is the password for pds_username.

5f

This is the Java-equivalent of the primary database character set.

NoteUnless you want to override the default character set that the JVM finds on your system, you do not have to explicitly set the character set-related environment variable RA_JAVA_DFLT_CHARSET. However, the system default character set must match the character set of the primary database.
