Installing Workspace Manager
Important Note: If you are upgrading from a previous version of
Oracle Workspace Manager, do not follow the instructions in this section;
instead follow the upgrade instructions in "Upgrading
Workspace Manager".
-
Create a directory (for example, wm_kit) in which to uncompress the Workspace
Manager kit. (The remaining instructions and examples assume that this
directory is named wm_kit.)
- Uncompress the source wmkit.zip; that is, unzip the compressed source files
to the directory wm_kit.
-
Change the current directory to wm_kit:
cd wm_kit
-
Start a sqlplus session as the Oracle user SYS:
sqlplus 'SYS/<SYS_PASSWORD> as sysdba'
(where <SYS_PASSWORD> is the password for the user SYS)
-
Invoke the installation script:
SQL> @owminst.plb
