This section describes how to install ECDA to replicate into Oracle.
To prepare the environment for ECDA Option for
Oracle software
Prepare the environment for installation:
Review the Enterprise Connect Data Access Installation Guide, Chapter 6, for hardware, software, and operating system software requirements.
Review sections 4 and 5 in the Enterprise Connect Data Access Release Bulletin for any recent updates to requirements for installation.
Identify an Oracle standby database. To do so, obtain the Oracle SID, which is usually the value $ORACLE_SID, and record the Oracle database name.
To verify that the Oracle version is certified to use
with ECDA 15.0, see the certification reporthttp://certification.sybase.com/ucr/search.do.
Verify the complete path name to the tnsnames.ora file, for example:
$ORACLE_HOME/network/admin/tnsnames.ora
The tnsnames.ora file must be accessible to the machine where installation is taking place, because ECDA makes another copy of the tnsnames.ora file and places it under the $SYBASE/DCO-15_0 directory structure during installation.
