DOWNLOAD AND UNZIP GG SOFTWARE - STEP 2

I WILL BE CALLING ORACLE GOLDEN GATE AS OGG THRU THIS TUTORIAL

You can download the oracle GG software from below link :

http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/middleware/goldengate/downloads/index.html

 

You will need an oracle account for this. This is a free account, so if you don't have one you can register for one.

I have downloaded it from above link.In my case I have to download software for Linuxx86-64 as this will be my host OS and oracle 12c is my source DB.

[gguser@Linux03 Desktop]$ cd
[gguser@Linux03 ~]$ pwd

[gguser@Linux03 app]$  cd /u01/app
[gguser@Linux03 app]$ mkdir GGHOME

I AM COPYING MY GG SOFTWARE to GGHOME:
[gguser@Linux03 app]$ cd OGG_SFTW

fbo_ggs_Linux_x64_shiphome.zip
[gguser@Linux03 OGG_SFTW]$ cp fbo_ggs_Linux_x64_shiphome.zip /u01/app/GGHOME

JUST TO MAKE LIFE SIMPLE export GGHOME PATH SO WE CAN USE IT IN FUTURE:
[gguser@Linux03 GGHOME]$ export GGHOME=/u01/app/GGHOME
[gguser@Linux03 GGHOME]$ echo $GGHOME
/u01/app/GGHOME
[gguser@Linux03 GGHOME]$ cd $GGHOME
