Installing client software
Bravura Security Fabric communicates with the Oracle server via OCI. Before you can target Oracle database, you must install the Oracle Client (Administrator) on the Bravura Security Fabric server.
The 64-bit version of the Oracle Client is required for Connector Pack 3.0 and higher.
Add a TNS entry for the Oracle database on which Bravura Security Fabric will manage accounts. To do this:
On the Bravura Security Fabric server, launch Oracle Net Configuration Assistant.
Select Local Net Service Name.
Click Next .
Click Add on the page.
Click Next .
Type the Oracle service name on page.
Click Next .
Select a network protocol on page.
Click Next .
Type Oracle database server’s Host Name and Port Number.
Ensure that you can connect to the database using a valid user name and password during testing.
Click Next .
Type the Net Service Name .
Remember this Net Service Name for the local naming method connection which will be needed when adding the target system to Bravura Security Fabric .
Click Next to finish.
Alternatively, you can setup connection to Oracle database server by using a tnsnames.ora file provided by your Oracle database administrator. See your Oracle documentation regarding how to specify a connection by configuring a tnsnames.ora file without using Oracle Net Configuration Assistant (NetCA) for more information.
Ensure that the ORACLE_HOME environment variable is set to a valid Oracle home directory which contains OCI.dll. The value of this environment variable must be set either system-wide or for the psadmin local user.
