A setup wizard is included to generate the required commands to configure the environment and start the replication.The wizard does not make changes to the database, it creates text-based scripts (for SQL*Plus, dbvrep and shell/cmd.exe) that do the actual work. These scripts can be edited to tailor it for specific needs before running them. More information on setup wizard is available here

The setup wizard is logically split into four parts: 

  1. Describing the individual databases that are taking part in the replication.
  2. Setting up the replication pairs to determine which are the source and target databases.  (Note: target schema should be created with Oracle system grants, i.e. create session, create table,etc)
  3. Choosing what to replicate, this can be tables and schemas.
  4. Process configuration which includes hostnames, port numbers and notification settings.
