Oracle GoldenGate Programs

8 Oracle GoldenGate Programs

This chapter describes the programs issued directly from the native command line of the Linux, UNIX, or Windows platforms.

Note:

Extract and Replicat typically, run from Admin Client. However, in some situations, such as initial load procedures, require running them from the command line of the operating system.

The following environment variables need to be set up from the bash prompt to be able to use command line utilities such as defgen:

OGG_HOME: This value is usually present after Oracle GoldenGate installation. However, you can preset this value on the bash prompt. Example:
```
export OGG_HOME=/u01/ogg
```
OGG_VAR_HOME: This is the location in which the processing artifacts for logging and reporting, for each deployment are stored. Example:
```
export OGG_VAR_HOME=/u02/Deployment/var
```

OGG_SERVICEMANAGER_ID: This is the value of the Service Manager deployment ID which is used for encryption. Example:

OGG_SERVICEMANAGER_ID=e5d29c3d-3d73-48be-95e6-b04eb9a1d407

To obtain the Service Manager deployment ID, you can use either one of the following commands:

strings /proc/$(pgrep adminsrvr)/environ | grep -E '(OGG_VAR_HOME|OGG_SERVICEMANAGER_ID)'

curl -su ggma:P@ssW0rd http://127.0.0.1:9011/services/v2/deployments/ServiceManager | jq .response.id,.response.oggVarHome
