Once an environment is added with the Delphix Admin application, all database installation homes on it are automatically discovered. However, if a database installation home is not automatically discovered, add it manually to the environment.

To add a dataset home installation manually, follow these steps:

  1. Log in to the DCT instance.

  2. On the Infrastructure Connections page, select any instance and click View.

  3. Select the Data tab and click +Add Installation.

  4. On the Add Installation page, enter the following details:

    • Database Type: Select Oracle from the drop-down menu.

    • Installation path: Enter the Oracle installation home path

    • Version: Enter the version of the Oracle installation home.

    • Oracle Base: Enter the Oracle Base path of the installation home.

    • Bits – Select the 64 bits encryption option of the Oracle Home.

    • Click Save.

    add oracle dataset home

    If an Oracle Home is not automatically discovered, we recommend troubleshooting the failure before restorting to manually added the home. A manually added home requires additional management steps. Once a home has been manually added, it cannot be converted to discovered.
