When setting up SharePlex to work with an Oracle database, you provide the ORACLE_SID and then SharePlex gets the ORACLE_HOME from the oratab file on Unix/Linux. Both values are stored in the SharePlex environment. SharePlex uses the Oracle libraries that are in the location specified with ORACLE_HOME.
To determine the ORACLE_SID and ORACLE_HOME being used by SharePlex:
Issue the orainfo command in sp_ctrl.
sp_ctrl (mysysl11:2101)> orainfo
Oracle instance #1:
Oracle SID ora12
Oracle HOME /oracle/products/12
Oracle Version 12
Oracle instance #2:
Oracle SID ora12
Oracle HOME /oracle/products/12
Oracle Version 12
To determine the default ORACLE_SID and ORACLE_HOME on UNIX and Linux:
On most Unix and Linux systems the oratab file is under /etc/oratab. On Oracle Solaris systems, it is under /var/opt/oracle, but sometimes there is an oratab file in the /etc directory as well.
The entry in the file looks like the following example:
qa12:/qa/oracle/ora12/app/oracle/product/12.0
In the example, qa12 is the ORACLE_SID and /qa/oracle/ora12/app/oracle/product/12.0 is the ORACLE_HOME.
The Database Setup utilities automatically configure a source or target database to allow SharePlex connections and to establish required database components that support replication.
Run the Database Setup utility for HANA (hana_setup) on a target HANA system to establish a user account, schema, and tables for use by SharePlex.
HANA on supported platforms
The only supported connection method to HANA is by connect string. Connection through a DSN is not supported.
The setup utility must be run as a HANA Administrator in order to grant SharePlex the required privileges to operate on the database and to create the SharePlex database account.
Run the hana_setup program from the bin subdirectory of the SharePlex product directory.
Important! If you installed the SharePlex instance on any port other than the default of 2100, use the -p option to specify the port number. For example, in the following command the port number is 9400.
$ /users/splex/bin> hana_setup -p9400 |
Table 6: Setup Prompts and Responses
Prompt | Response |
---|---|
Enter the HANA connection string [] : |
Enter a connection string that connects to the HANA database system. The required components of a connection string for SharePlex to connect to HANA are:
Example: SERVERNODE=server1.dept.abc.corp:30015;DRIVER=/usr/sap/hdbclient/libodbcHDB.so;CHAR_AS_UTF8=1 You do not have to supply a user, password, and default database, because the setup utility prompts for those. |

Enter the password for the Administrator account : |
Enter the password of the Administrator. |
Enter the name of the database : |
Enter the name of the database that you want to contain the tables and other objects for use by SharePlex. You can enter the name of a new or existing database. |
Database name database does not exist. Would you like to create it? [y] : |
If this prompt is displayed, the specified database does not exist. Press Enter to have the setup utility create it for you. |
Would you like to create a new SharePlex user [y]: |
Press Enter to accept the default to create a new SharePlex database user account and schema of the same name in the specified database, or enter n to use an existing SharePlex account. |
Enter the name of the new SharePlex user: Enter the name of the existing SharePlex user: |
One of these prompts is displayed depending on whether you elected to create a new user or use an existing user. Enter the name of the SharePlex user.
|
Enter the password of the SharePlex user : |
Enter the password of the SharePlex user account. |
Re-enter the password for the SharePlex user : |
This prompt is only shown if you created a new user. Enter the SharePlex password again. |
A successful setup terminates with a message similar to the following:
Completed SharePlex for HANA database configuration
SharePlex User name: splex
Database name: ndb5
Target specification in SharePlex configuration: r.ndb5
Before you start SharePlex replication to a HANA target, grant the following privileges to the SharePlex database user in that target (where SP_USER is the name of the SharePlex database user):
Additionally, log in as the owner of each schema that contains objects that you want to replicate, then make the following grants on the schema:
Run the Database Setup utility for MySQL (mysql_setup) on a MySQL system to establish SharePlex as a MySQL database user.
This utility creates the following:
MySQL on Linux. For supported Linux platforms and versions, see the SharePlex Release Notes.
Review the following requirements to ensure that the setup succeeds:
Perform the following steps to to run database setup for MySQL:
Run the mysql_setup program from the bin subdirectory of the SharePlex product directory.
Important! If you installed the SharePlex instance on any port other than the default of 2100, use the -p option to specify the port number. For example, in the following command the port number is 9400.
C:\users\splex\bin> mysql_setup -p9400

See the example. Example connection string DRIVER=/usr/lib64/libmyodbc5.so;socket=/var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock;character-set-server=utf8;collation-server=utf8_general_ci;max_allowed_packet=2G;wait_timeout= 6000;Server=servername.amazonaws.com |
