Clean Setup with Oracle RAC

If you are setting up a new Key Manager Server against a database provided by Oracle RAC, ssh-mgrsetup must be run in non-interactive mode (by providing the required settings in the command).

Oracle RAC connection parameters must be provided with --db-name in connect descriptor format. Also note that you must not provide the database URL with --db-host nor --db-port.

Example ssh-mgr-setup command for Oracle RAC:

# /opt/sshmgr/bin/ssh-mgr-setup --install-dir=/opt/sshmgr --db-type=Oracle \
--fqdn=keymanager.example.com --superuser-password=example-password \
--db-name='(DESCRIPTION = (FAILOVER=on)(LOAD_BALANCE=off)
(TRANSPORT_CONNECT_TIMEOUT=5)(CONNECT_TIMEOUT=5)(RETRY_COUNT=10)
(ADDRESS_LIST = (ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = oraclerac1.example.com)
(PORT = 1521)) (ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = oraclerac2.example.com)
(PORT = 1521)))(CONNECT_DATA = (SERVER = DEDICATED)
(SERVICE_NAME = oracleracdb)))' \
--db-user=database_username --db-user-password=example-password \
--encryption-passphrase=example_passphrase --accept-eula

Replace the example values as appropriate for your environment. Particularly, note that the connect descriptor for your Oracle RAC may require completely different parameters than shown in the example.
