This topic provides information on target distribution path.

The target receiver server must establish a connection path to the source distribution server. This setup enables the OCI GoldenGate deployment to pull trail files from the source to the target OCI GoldenGate environment.

To create a Target-Initiated Distribution Path, follow the steps below:

1. In the OCI GoldenGate self-service console, go to the Receiver Service section.
2. Under the Receiver Service page, locate and select the Target-Initiated Path option.
3. Click on the “+” symbol to create a new Target-Initiated Path.
4. Enter the Path Details as shown in the images below, and then click Create Path to complete the configuration.
   1. Path Name – Enter a unique name for the path.
   2. Source Host / Endpoint – Specify the source distribution server hostname or IP.
   3. Port – Enter the listener port of the source distribution service.
   4. Authentication Details – Provide the Operator username and password from the source deployment.
   5. Encryption Profile – Select the required encryption profile (OCI Vault or Local Wallet).
