Oracle GoldenGate 12c: Silent Install

November 11, 2014 by Natik Ameen   /  Goldengate, GoldenGate 12c, OraFAQ, ToadWorld

Starting with GoldenGate 12c, Oracle has moved the installation mechanism into the familiar Oracle Universal Installer framework. It’s a good move not only in terms of the ease of use but also for the uniformity of the install process across all Oracle products. The effect of the ease with which these installs can be completed is more noticeable when multiple installations are to be performed or remote installation is required. The silent option eases this and standardizes the installs further.


In this article we will look at Oracle GoldenGate 12c silent install.

Preparing the Response File

Similar to other Oracle products, the first thing you need to do is to prepare a response file. The response file basically contains the values of all the required and optional parameters to be used during the install. To ease the process of actually creating a response file, Oracle also provides a template which you can use to insert custom parameter values required for the installation. The template for response file can be found at location below.

/opt/app/oracle/gg>ls -lrt /Disk1/response

Alternatively you can copy/paste the lines below into a text editor and save it as an .rsp file. Do remember to change the values of parameters according to your environment.

oracle.install.responseFileVersion=/oracle/install/rspfmt_ogginstall_response_schema_v12_1_2

INSTALL_OPTION=ORA12c
SOFTWARE_LOCATION=/u01/app/oracle/golden_gate
START_MANAGER=true
MANAGER_PORT=8001
DATABASE_LOCATION=/u01/app/oracle/product/12.1.0/dbhome_1
INVENTORY_LOCATION=/u01/app/oraInventory
UNIX_GROUP_NAME=oinstall

You should not change the first parameter. Install option parameters let’s you specify which version of GoldenGate you want to install. The values can be ORA12c for 12c version and ORA11g for 11g version. Provide the value of Start_Manager as true if you want to start the GoldenGate after installation and false if otherwise. You also need to provide a value for the Port parameter, if Start_Manager has been set to true. The other three parameters are straight forward, asking you to provide the database home, the Oracle Inventory path and the OS group who owns the inventory.

Installing GoldenGate

Once the response file is ready you can now install the GoldenGate Software by running the OUI with the -silent option. The only other option you need to specify is path of response file you created above.

$ ./runInstaller -silent -responseFile /home/oracle/ggresp.rsp
