You can follow seven basic steps to install Dbvisit Standby version 7.  This section covers the installation of Dbvisit Standby on a single server environment. The same process can be followed for a Oracle RAC environment, and where applicable, notes will indicate specific steps to be performed for Oracle RAC installations.

In the examples below the Dbvisit Base will be the default, which is: 

/usr/dbvisit

 

 

The Dbvisit Standby software is available for different Operating Systems and versions as noted on the download web page.

In summary:

  • Files with -el4- in the name can be used for Oracle Linux and Red Had Enterprise Linux 4 (example - dbvisit-standby7.0.04-el4.zip)
  • Files with -el5- in the name can be used for Oracle Linux and Red Had Enterprise Linux 5 (example - dbvisit-standby7.0.04-el5.zip)
  • Files with -el6- in the name can be used for Oracle Linux and Red Had Enterprise Linux 6 (example - dbvisit-standby7.0.04-el6.zip)
  • IF the name also include -x86_64 then it indicates it is for 64bit installations, and if -i686 is part of the name, then it is for 32bit installations (example dbvisit-standby7.0.04-el6-x86_64.zip indicates a download file for Oracle Linux 6 (as well as RHEL6) 64bit installation). If there is no -i686 or -x86_64- then the installation is for both 32bit and 64bit environments.
