TAR File

Dbvisit Replicate can be installed with any OS user id except root. It does not have to be the same user id as the Oracle software. However, file system read access to the redo and archive logs is required and that is why the user has to be part of the oinstall or dba group. If ASM is used on mine, a bequeath connection must be made to the ASM instance and the user may also have to be a member of the sysasm group.

1. Unzip the chosen dbvisit_replicate2.*.zip file to a directory on your local PC if you have not done so already.

On the source (mine) server:

2. Create the Dbvisit main install directory on your server (if this does not yet exist).

1. • We recommend : /usr/dbvisit
   • Make sure this directory has the correct owner and permissions.
   • The tar file will create the replicate subdirectory under the main dbvisit directory. This is where Dbvisit Replicate will be installed.

3. Copy or ftp the dbvrep2.x.tar file to the Dbvisit directory (ie /usr/dbvisit).

4. Untar the dbvrep2.x.tar file with the command:

tar xvf dbvrep2.5.tar

This will have created the replicate subdirectory. This is where Dbvisit Replicate will be installed.

5. cd into the replicate directory.

cd replicate

6. Ensure Dbvisit Replicate is executable with the command:

chmod 750 dbvrep 

7. Make sure that the dbvrep executable is in your PATH (modify your PATH settings or create a symbolic link, e.g. from /usr/local/bin).
