Prerequisites

This section lists the prerequisites for installing the MDB on Oracle 11g:

• Install Oracle 11g Server on the computer where you are planning to install or upgrade the MDB. This release supports Windows, Solaris, and Linux servers for Oracle 11g MDB.
• Create an Oracle instance using the Oracle Database Configuration Assistant. Consider the following factors while creating the instance:
  • The database instance name (SID) must be the same as the Oracle service name (global name).
  • Appropriate values must be entered in the SGA Size and PGA Size fields on the Memory tab of the Oracle Database Configuration Assistant.

    A minimum of 2 GB is recommended for SGA.

• Install Oracle 11g Client on the computer where you are planning to install or upgrade the CA ITCM DSM manager.

Note: For detailed installation instructions, see the appropriate Installation Guide available in the Oracle Documentation Library.
