In Oracle to SQL Server replication, if source Oracle database is running on Linux then setup wizard is executed on target Windows machine where SQL Server database is running. 3rd party products such as MS SSMA or Navicat Premium can (Navicat is recommended only for small tables) can be used to load data from oracle to SQL Server in order to sync source and target environment before initiating replication.

Running the reptest2-all.sh bat script will configure and initiate the replication. It does the following:
- Create the Dbvisit Replicate schemas in the source and target databases.
- Grant the necessary privileges to the Dbvisit Replicate schema.
- Create the Dbvisit Replicate repository in the source and target databases.
- Load the Dbvisit Replicate configuration file (DDC) into the Dbvisit Replicate repository. The DDC file is like the init.ora for Oracle and contains the settings for the replication.
- Prepare the schemas or objects for replication.

These steps are required after the reptest2-all.bat script runs: 1) Create the necessary directory(ies) on the servers: dbvisit420.dbvisitdomain.dbvisit.com: C:\Users\oracle\Documents\reptest2 dbvldemo102: /home/oracle/reptest2 2) Copy the DDC files to the server(s) where the processes will run: dbvisit420.dbvisitdomain.dbvisit.com: C:\Users\oracle\Documents\reptest2\reptest2-APPLY.ddc dbvldemo102: C:\Users\oracle\Documents\reptest2\reptest2-MINE.ddc 3) Review that path to dbvrep executable is correct in the run scripts: C:\Users\oracle\Documents\reptest2\reptest2-run-dbvisit420.dbvisitdomain.dbvisit.com.bat C:\Users\oracle\Documents\reptest2\reptest2-run-dbvldemo102.sh 4) Review and run the scripts for Windows to create services (run with Administrator privileges): C:\Users\oracle\Documents\reptest2\reptest2-win_services-dbvisit420.dbvisitdomain.dbvisit.com.bat 5) Copy the run script to the server(s) where the processes will run: C:\Users\oracle\Documents\reptest2\reptest2-run-dbvisit420.dbvisitdomain.dbvisit.com.bat C:\Users\oracle\Documents\reptest2\reptest2-run-dbvldemo102.sh 6) Ensure firewall is open for listen interfaces 0.0.0.0:7902, 0.0.0.0:7901 used by the processes. 7) Make sure the data on apply are in sync as of time when setup was run. Scripts for Data Pump/export/DDL were created as requested: C:\Users\oracle\Documents\reptest2\APPLY.sql Create referenced database links (if any) before running the scripts. 8) Start the replication processes on all servers: C:\Users\oracle\Documents\reptest2\reptest2-run-dbvisit420.dbvisitdomain.dbvisit.com.bat C:\Users\oracle\Documents\reptest2\reptest2-run-dbvldemo102.sh 9) Start the console to monitor the progress: C:\Users\oracle\Documents\reptest2\start-console.bat The above list is stored in C:\Users\oracle\Documents\reptest2\Nextsteps.txt.
