Post-installation Tasks

Learn about any post-installation tasks that may be required after installing Oracle GoldenGate Microservices Architecture for your database.

Install the DataDirect Driver for PostgreSQL

After installing Oracle GoldenGate for PostgreSQL, the Extract and Replicat processes use a DataDirect ODBC driver to connect to a PostgreSQL database. This driver is packaged with Oracle GoldenGate and needs to be installed and configured separately.

Installing for Linux

After installing Oracle GoldenGate for PostgreSQL on Linux, the DataDirect driver is automatically installed, but an ODBCINI variable needs to be set, if it has not already been done.

  1. Create the ODBCINI variable for the Deployment from the deployment’s Configuration tab of the Service Manager Overview page.

  2. Set Value to the full path location of the odbc file where you will configure the database DSN connections. For example:

    Value equals: /etc/odbc.ini

  3. Restart the deployment.
