Register Oracle Sources
To start protecting your Oracle Databases, you need to register your Oracle servers and hosts as Cohesity Cloud Protection Service sources. Confirm you've met the Oracle requirements and then register your Oracle sources.
You'll need to use a SaaS Connection (or create one) to connect with sources in your data center to establish connectivity between the sources and the Cohesity Cloud Protection Service.
To register an Oracle Server as a Cohesity Cloud Protection Service source:
-
Confirm that you meet the Oracle requirements for software version and the required credentials and privileges.
-
In Cloud Protection Service, navigate to Sources and click + Register Source.
-
In the Select Source dialog box, select Oracle and click Start Registration.
-
In the Register Oracle Server dialog box, select an existing healthy SaaS connection marked Unused, or click Create SaaS Connection, follow the instructions in Deploy SaaS Connection and then click Continue.
-
-
Enter the Hostname (FQDN) or IP address of the Oracle server you’re registering. We recommend that you use the FQDN.
-
Choose your Oracle authentication method: OS Authentication (the default) or DB Authentication.
If you choose DB authentication, then all the databases on the system should have the same username and password.
-
Click Complete.
Your Oracle server appears under Sources in Cohesity Cloud Protection Service.
