Environment Variables

Environment variables define parameter values used by the Oracle database and BR*Tools. This section describes the variables used in the Windows operating system.

• ORACLE_SID

  This variable is the System ID of the database instance.

• ORACLE_HOME

  This variable is the home directory of the Oracle software. This variable no longer needs to be set. If not set, the SAP tools determine its value from the registry.

• SAPDATA_HOME

  This variable is the directory of the database files.
