Step 1 - Describe databases
========================================
The first step is to describe databases used in the replication. There are usually two of them (source and target); however,
there can be just one (when source and target is the same) or more than two (one-to-many or other complex configurations.)
Let's configure the database, describing it's type, connectivity, user names etc.
What type of database is this? (Oracle/MySQL/MSSQL): [Oracle]
Please enter database TNS alias: [] reptest2
Please enter SYSDBA user name: [SYS]
Please enter password for this user: [change_on_install] odb10gpassword

Please enter user with DBA role: [SYSTEM]
Please enter password for this user: [manager] odb10gpassword

Connecting to database reptest2 as SYSTEM to query list of tablespaces and to detect ASM (by looking whether any redo logs
or archived logs are stored in ASM).
Enter the Dbvisit Replicate owner and apply user (this user will be created by this script): [dbvrep]
Please enter password for this user: [dbvpasswd]

Permanent tablespaces detected on the database: USERS.
Please enter default permanent tablespace for this user: [USERS]
Temporary tablespaces detected on the database: TEMP.
Please enter default temporary tablespace for this user: [TEMP]
Following databases are now configured:
1: Oracle reptest2, SYS/***, SYSTEM/***, dbvrep/***, USERS/TEMP, dbvrep/, ASM:NO, TZ: +00:00
Enter number of database to modify it, or "add", or "done": [add]

Let's configure the database, describing it's type, connectivity, user names etc.
What type of database is this? (Oracle/MySQL/MSSQL): [Oracle] MSSQL
Please enter server name (as specified in "sqlcmd -S", e.g. WINSVR1\SQLEXPRESS): [localhost] dbvisit420
Please enter database ODBC DNS: [] ms
Please enter user name of an administrator: [SA] dbvuser
Please enter password for this user: [password] odb10gpassword??

Enter the user to log into apply database: [SA] dbvuser
Please enter password for this user: [password] odb10gpassword??

Enter the database to use: [dbvrep]
Enter the schema the table are created by the user specified: [dbo]
Enter the database with the user data: [] w420g
Following databases are now configured:
1: Oracle reptest2, SYS/***, SYSTEM/***, dbvrep/***, USERS/TEMP, dbvrep/, ASM:NO, TZ: +00:00
2: MSSQL ms, dbvuser/***, dbvuser/***, dbvuser/***, /, dbvrep/dbo, ASM:n/a, TZ:
Enter number of database to modify it, or "add", or "done": [done]

These steps are required after the reptest2-all.bat script runs:
1) Create the necessary directory(ies) on the servers:
DBVISIT410: C:\Users\oracle\Documents\reptest2
dbvisit420: C:\Users\oracle\Documents\reptest2
2) Copy the DDC files to the server(s) where the processes will run:
dbvisit420: C:\Users\oracle\Documents\reptest2\reptest2-APPLY.ddc
DBVISIT410: 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-DBVISIT410.bat
C:\Users\oracle\Documents\reptest2\reptest2-run-dbvisit420.bat
4) Review and run the scripts for Windows to create services (run with Administrator privileges):
C:\Users\oracle\Documents\reptest2\reptest2-win_services-DBVISIT410.bat
C:\Users\oracle\Documents\reptest2\reptest2-win_services-dbvisit420.bat

5) Copy the run script to the server(s) where the processes will run:
C:\Users\oracle\Documents\reptest2\reptest2-run-DBVISIT410.bat
C:\Users\oracle\Documents\reptest2\reptest2-run-dbvisit420.bat
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-DBVISIT410.bat
C:\Users\oracle\Documents\reptest2\reptest2-run-dbvisit420.bat
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.
