Replication Agent for Oracle 15.7.1 must be installed on the same host on which the
primary Oracle server is running.
Using any of the upgrade procedures described
here, the new Replication Agent for Oracle 15.7.1 instances will have the same
configuration as previously existing instances, including instance names, administrative
user IDs and passwords, and administrative port numbers.
Replication Agent for Oracle 15.7.1 does not have to be installed on the same machine as
the primary Oracle data server. However:
- Replication Agent for Oracle must be installed on a host that has access to
Oracle LogMiner.
- If Replication Agent for Oracle is configured to automatically truncate Oracle
logs, it must be installed on a machine that has direct access to the Oracle
logs.
Note:
For upgrades within a common release level, as in the
case of an ESD applied to a particular version of Replication Agent,
use the ra_admin -u option
applied to a particular instance of Replication Agent or to all
instances of Replication Agent. See the Replication Agent
Administration Guide.
