3.5.1 MxDB-Oracle-HiAv Installation and Administration Guide

Chapter 2: Operations 17

Configure Net Services (SQL*Net)

Select how Net services should be configured in the Net services

(SQL*Net) section of the Configuration GUI.

MxDB-Oracle-HiAv will configure listener.ora and tnsnames.ora only if

there is not a current set of these files generated by the Oracle Net

Services configuration utilities (e.g., netca, netmgr).

If you want MxDB-Oracle-HiAv to configure the files, click the “Allow

solution pack to configure the default Net Services configuration” button,

and then examine the tunable location (

$ORACLE_HOME/network/admin,

by default) and port (1521, by default) specified for

TNS_ADMIN. If the

values are acceptable, click the Configure button.

If you will be using Oracle Tools such as netca or netmgr to maintain Net

Services files, click the button labeled “Entries already exist/I will use

netca/netmgr.” A pop-up window will appear instructing you to execute

netca or netmgr in another session. After the listener and TNS service are

configured, you can return to the configuration GUI and close the pop-up

window.

NOTE: Do not close the window until you have configured listener.ora and

tnsnames.ora. Regardless of whether you decide to use netca to

configure the listener.ora and tnsnames.ora files for

PILOT, you must

tell MxDB-Oracle-HiAv where the files reside. The default

location is

$ORACLE_HOME/network/admin.

When all the fields are complete, click on the Apply button.
