5.3 Profiles

A profile is a set of global processing parameters, each containing unique settings for a specific purpose. Oracle GoldenGate Veridata provides a default profile, but you can create your own profiles. You can create as many profiles as needed and associate them with any job or compare pair (to override the job profile; see Compare Pairs). You can override profile assignments at run time.

You must have the Administrator or Super User role to create, edit, or delete a profile.

You can create, edit, clone, delete, and view profile information from the Profiles page.

  1. Click Profiles in the navigation pane.
  2. On the Create a Profile page, click Create.
  3. Enter the name and descriptoin for the new profile.

  5. Click Submit

    See Editing Profile Settings.

To clone a Profile:

  2. Enter a name and a description for the new profile. Click Clone. You can now see the cloned profile in the profiles list.

Change the default profile

Oracle GoldenGate provides a default profile (see Using the Default Profile) that is used for all of the compare pairs and jobs that are not linked to a user-defined profile. This profile is used automatically unless another profile is selected when creating a compare pair or a job, or when running a job. You can change the settings of the default profile by editing it.
