Verify that you have enough disk space (approximately 30% of the source database size) on the machine you are working from (CA Business Service Insight source database or the BI Installation machine) for the dump file.
Verify that the machine you are working from (CA Business Service Insight database or the BI Installation machine) has Java Runtime Environment, version 1.5 or later, installed on it. This is required so that the batch files for installing the replication environment can be executed. Additional information on how to install and set up the Java Runtime environment can be found at the Java web site.
Verify that you have a connection from the machine you are working from (the BI Installation machine) to the CA Business Service Insight database for sys user (e.g. sys/sys as sysdba) and check for proper connectivity to this instance using SQLPLUS (e.g. conn sys/sys@<DBNAME>).
Stop all CA Business Service Insight services if any exist. Verify that there is no mechanism that can start them up automatically.
