Cisco MDS 9000 Family Fabric Manager Configuration Guide

Chapter 2 Installing Cisco MDS NX-OS and Fabric Manager
Installing the Management Software
Installing Oracle
Note If you want to use Oracle Database 10g Express, you must install the database and create a user name
and password before continuing with the Fabric Manager installation.
Note We recommend the Oracle Database 10g Express option for all users who are running Performance
Manager on large fabrics (1000 or more end devices).
To install the Oracle database, follow these steps:
Step 1 Click the following link to install Oracle Database 10g Express.
http://www.oracle.com/technology/software/products/database/xe/index.html
Note If you have another instance of Oracle already installed on a PC, we recommend that you do not
install the Oracle database on the same PC. In such cases, Fabric Manager can only use the
PostgreSQL database.
Step 2 Run OracleXE.exe to install the Oracle database. Set the password for the system user. The database
administrator uses the password to manage and administer Oracle Database 10g Express server, which
is installed by the Oracle installer.
Step 3 Finish the installation and verify that both services (OracleServiceXE and OracleXETNSListener) are
running from the Services window.
Step 4 Run the following script to change the default Oracle admin port and to create a database account.
C:\> cd c:\oraclexe\app\oracle\product\10.2.0\server\bin
C:\oraclexe\app\oracle\product\10.2.0\server\bin>sqlplus / as sysdba
SQL> exec dbms_xdb.sethttpport(8082);
SQL> GRANT CONNECT,RESOURCE,UNLIMITED TABLESPACE TO SCOTT IDENTIFIED BY
TIGER;
SQL> EXIT;
Note The Oracle Database 10g Express option is only supported on Microsoft Windows. It is not
supported on UNIX systems.
