This chapter provides general information about gateway installation that is specific to this release of the Oracle Transparent Gateway for DRDA for Microsoft Windows. This chapter includes the following sections:
The complete Oracle Transparent Gateway for DRDA for Microsoft Windows installation process is divided into installation and configuration tasks. This process is described in Chapters 4 through 8. If this is the first time the gateway has been installed on your Pentium-based host, then you must perform all the steps documented in these chapters.
The installation tasks include:
Ensuring that your hardware and software requirements are met
Loading and installing the gateway software from the distribution medium into your system
Determining your gateway system identifier
Reconfiguring your network
An installation checklist follows, which you can use to check off each completed step in the process.
This chapter requires you to enter parameters that are unique to your system in order to properly configure the gateway. Refer to Appendix E, "Configuration Worksheet" for a worksheet listing all the installation parameters that you will need to know in order to complete the configuration process. Ask your network administrator to provide these parameters before you begin.
You will also need to confirm that all hardware and software requirements have been met. Refer to Chapter 3, "System Requirements" to verify these requirements.
The primary installation tasks are presented with the assumption that you will configure the gateway with a single Oracle integrating server and a single DRDA database. The steps for expanding the configuration to multiple integrating servers and multiple DRDA databases are described in Chapter 10, "Configuring the Gateway".
For general information about installing Oracle products and how to use the Oracle Universal Installer, refer to the Oracle Database Installation Guide for Microsoft Windows (32-Bit).
ORACLE_HOME is the root directory in which Oracle software is installed.
Throughout this book, ORACLE_HOME is used to refer to the home directory of the Oracle Transparent Gateway for DRDA for Microsoft Windows, unless specifically stated otherwise.
The Oracle Universal Installer for Microsoft Windows is provided on the installation media with the gateway.
Log on to your host computer as a member of the Administrators group.
Use any CDEROM drive that is attached to the Pentium-based host (either locally or as a shared resource) as a logical drive to install the gateway. If the CDEROM drive cannot copy files to your hard disk, then refer to your CDEROM documentation. The installation steps are presented with the assumption that the CDEROM drive is mapped to the G: drive.
To load the gateway distribution CDEROM:
Insert the gateway distribution CDEROM into the CDEROM drive.
Verify that the drive is assigned to the logical drive that you selected and that you can access files on the CDEROM.
If you previously installed another Oracle Microsoft Windows product, such as an earlier version of the Oracle server or the gateway, then Oracle Universal Installer has already been set up in the Microsoft Windows program menu.
Start the Oracle Universal Installer from the Start menu rather than by using Microsoft Windows Explorer.
From the Start menu, click Run.
Enter the path and executable file name:
G:\SETUP.EXE
Click OK.
The Oracle Universal Installer is a menuEdriven utility that guides you through installation of the gateway by prompting you with action items. The action items and the sequence in which they appear depend on your platform. Use the following table as a guide to the installation, following the instructions in the Response column.
