The complete Dbvisit Standby installation and configuration should take less than 30 minutes (excluding creation of the standby database). The server or the database does not need to be restarted.
The complete installation and configuration for Linux/Unix is a 4-step process. The steps are:

  1. Configure secure shell – SSH (step 1) – Linux/Unix
  2. Dbvisit Standby installation (step 2) - Linux/Unix
  3. Configure Dbvisit Standby (step 3) - Linux/Unix
  4. Create Standby Database (step 4) – Linux/Unix

Ensure all Installation Prerequisites are met before continuing with installation. It is recommended that Dbvisit Standby is installed and run as the Oracle software user.

 

Dbvisit Standby software must be installed with the same account that is running the Oracle Database software.

Example on most UNIX systems the operating system user used to install and run the Oracle database software is "oracle" .

You must install Dbvisit Standby as this user. Keep in mind that Dbvisit Standby needs to stop/start the databases during Graceful Switchover and using a different user can have side effects.
