## Topology

Databases:
  - source: CDB: NABOOPRD@wayland, PDB: EREP
  - target: CDB: GENOSISPRD@togoria, PDB: GERISS

## Databases setup for Golden Gate

In **both** databases, create Golden Gate admin user in `CDB$ROOT`:

	create user c##oggadmin identified by "Secret00!";
	alter user c##oggadmin quota unlimited on USERS;
	grant create session, connect,resource,alter system, select any dictionary, flashback any table to c##oggadmin container=all;
	exec dbms_goldengate_auth.grant_admin_privilege(grantee => 'c##oggadmin',container=>'all');
	alter user c##oggadmin set container_data=all container=current;
	grant alter any table to c##oggadmin container=ALL;
	alter system set enable_goldengate_replication=true scope=both;
	alter database force logging;
	alter database add supplemental log data;
	select supplemental_log_data_min, force_logging from v$database;

> On **target** database I had to add extra grants:

	grant select any table to c##oggadmin container=ALL;
	grant insert any table to c##oggadmin container=ALL;
	grant update any table to c##oggadmin container=ALL;
	grant delete any table to c##oggadmin container=ALL;

Create schemas for replicated tables on source and target PDB:

	alter session set container=EREP;
	create user R2D2 identified by "Secret00!";
	alter user R2D2 quota unlimited on USERS;
	grant connect,resource to R2D2;
	connect R2D2/"Secret00!"@wayland/EREP;


	alter session set container=GERISS;
	create user C3PO identified by "Secret00!";
	alter user C3PO quota unlimited on USERS;
	grant connect,resource to C3PO;
	connect C3PO/"Secret00!"@togoria/GERISS;

## Setup `exegol` Golden Gate deployment

> My Root CA (added to truststore host) has not be recognized by `admincmient` resulting OGG-12982 error while `curl` works perfectly.  

Solution: define `OGG_CLIENT_TLS_CAPATH` environement variable to my root CA certificate prior to using  `admincmient`

	export OGG_CLIENT_TLS_CAPATH=/etc/pki/ca-trust/source/anchors/rootCA.pem

Add in the credentialstore enteries for database connections:

	adminclient
	connect https://exegol.swgalaxy:2000 deployment ogg_exegol_deploy as OGGADMIN  password "Secret00!"

Optionaly store credentials to connect to deployement:

	add credentials admin user OGGADMIN password "Secret00!"

Now we can hide the password when conecting to deployement:

	connect https://exegol.swgalaxy:2000 deployment ogg_exegol_deploy as admin

Add in the credentialstore enteries for database connections:

	create wallet
	add credentialstore
	alter credentialstore add user c##oggadmin@wayland/NABOOPRD password "Secret00!" alias NABOOPRD
	alter credentialstore add user c##oggadmin@wayland/EREP password "Secret00!" alias EREP
	info credentialstore

Test database connections:

	dblogin useridalias NABOOPRD
	dblogin useridalias EREP

To delete a user from credential store:

	alter credentialstore delete user NABOOPRD

> IMPORTANT: in a database **MULTITENANT** architecture, Golden Gate is working at `CDB$ROOT` level.  

Create the checkpoint table:

	dblogin useridalias NABOOPRD
	add checkpointtable EREP.c##oggadmin.checkpt

Set **global** parameters:

	edit GLOBALS

Put:

	ggschema c##oggadmin
	checkpointtable EREP.c##oggadmin.checkpt


## Setup `helska` Golden Gate deployment

	adminclient
	connect https://helska.swgalaxy:2000 deployment ogg_helska_deploy as OGGADMIN  password "Secret00!"

Optionaly store credentials to connect to deployement:

	add credentials admin user OGGADMIN password "Secret00!"

Now we can hide the password when conecting to deployement:

	connect https://helska.swgalaxy:2000 deployment ogg_helska_deploy as admin

Add in the credentialstore enteries for database connections:

	alter credentialstore add user c##oggadmin@togoria/GENOSISPRD password "Secret00!" alias GENOSISPRD
	alter credentialstore add user c##oggadmin@togoria/GERISS password "Secret00!" alias GERISS
	info credentialstore

Test database connections:

	dblogin useridalias GENOSISPRD
	dblogin useridalias GERISS

Create the checkpoint table:

	dblogin useridalias GENOSISPRD
	add checkpointtable GERISS.c##oggadmin.checkpt	

Set **global** parameters:

	edit GLOBALS

Put:

	ggschema c##oggadmin
	checkpointtable GERISS.c##oggadmin.checkpt
