Chapter 4 Installing Virtual Network Data Server

Installing Virtual Network Data Server

Note Virtual Network Data Server can operate with either a local or remote Oracle database. If a local database is present, you have the option of using this database. You can also choose to use a remote database. In either case, the installer displays a panel which requests database access information. If a local database is not found, but an Oracle client installation is detected, the installer displays a panel requesting access information about the remote database. While the Oracle database may be installed on a remote system, the Virtual Network Data Server and Oracle database cannot be separated by a WAN. This means that they must be co-located and connected via a high speed local link. This connection should be unimpeded by an intervening firewall.
