Currently, MediationZone supports only Oracle Database 19c or older JDBC drivers. Ensure that you are in the correct version prior to the installation to avoid any failure in starting up the platform.
The following steps are applicable when using an Oracle database. For configuration of Oracle RAC, skip to Oracle RAC Connection.
- Go to the Oracle JDBC driver download page:
http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/database/features/jdbc/index-091264.html. - Download the JDBC driver (
ojdbc<version>.jar
) for Oracle database version 12.1. This driver also works with Oracle database version 11.2. - Store the JDBC driver in a directory that is available on the Platform Container host.
If you are using Oracle 12, it is recommended that you set the property jvmargs.args
to -Djava.security.egd=file:///dev/urandom
for all pico instances that are expected to open connections towards Oracle. The jdbc driver has performance using /dev/urandom
.
