2.8 Reviewing the Windows Server Registry Content

The Windows Server Registry is the repository for all hardware, software, and application configuration settings for the Windows system. During the Oracle Tuxedo installation, the installer program writes general installation information as well as IPC Resource values to the Registry. The structure of the Registry relevant to Oracle Tuxedo is as follows:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\ORACLE\Tuxedo\<version>\...

  • Developer
  • Environment
  • Security

To view this structure, choose Start → Run to launch the Run dialog box, enter Registry Editor, and click OK to launch the Registry Editor window.
