Configuring Installation Parameters in the obparameters File
Installing Oracle Secure Backup on Linux or UNIX 2-7
■
Enter
yes
to start the
installob
script. The steps for running
installob
are described in "Installing Oracle Secure Backup on Linux or UNIX with
installob" on page 2-8.
Configuring Installation Parameters in the obparameters File
The setup script creates a file called
obparameters
in the install subdirectory of the
Oracle Secure Backup home. For example, if the Oracle Secure Backup home is in the
default location
/usr/local/oracle/backup
, then the
obparameters
file is
located at
/usr/local/oracle/backup/install/
.
During the installation process the setup script gives you the choice of accepting the
default settings in the
obparameters
file or customizing those settings. In most
cases, it is not necessary to change the defaults in the
obparameters
file. However,
you should review the parameters you can control in this file as part of planning your
installation, and determine whether any of them should be changed.
The
obparameters
file is plain text that can be edited using any standard text editor.
Reasons to change the parameters in the
obparameters
file include:
■
You can specify a different key size for enhanced security or performance
■
You can customize installation directories and symbolic links created during
installation on different platforms.
■
If you are using Oracle Secure Backup to back up Oracle Database files to tape,
then you can create an Oracle Secure Backup user named
oracle
for use in
RMAN backups. You can associate this user with Linux or UNIX operating system
credentials by setting parameters in
obparameters
.

"Installing Oracle Secure Backup on Linux or UNIX with
installob" on page 2-8 for instructions on starting
installob
Note: If the setup script is interrupted, then some temporary files,
named
OB nnnn
or
OB nnnn .Z
, might remain in
/usr/tmp
. You can
safely delete these files.

"Setting the Key Size in obparameters" on page 6-18
Note:
■
You can also configure a preauthorized
oracle
user later. Before
electing to create an Oracle Secure Backup
oracle
user, be aware
that this choice involves a trade-off between convenience and
security.
■
If you intend to use Oracle Secure Backup to perform one-time,
RMAN-initiated, or
unprivileged backup operations on Windows
clients, then you must modify the Oracle Secure Backup
admin
and
oracle
users to assign them Windows credentials (a domain,
user name and password) that are valid at the client with
required privileges after you complete the Oracle Secure Backup
installation. Otherwise, Oracle Secure Backup cannot perform
these types of backup operations. This requirement applies
regardless of the platform that acts as the administrative server.
