Installing EDB OCL Connector on RHEL 7 or OL 7 x86_64 v15.2.0.1

Prerequisites

Before you begin the installation process:

  • Install EDB Postgres Advanced Server on a host that the product can connect to using a connection string. It doesn't need to be on the same host. See Installing EDB Postgres Advanced Server.

  • Set up the repository

    Setting up the repository is a one-time task. If you have already set up your repository, you do not need to perform this step.

    To set up the repository, go to EDB repositories and follow the instructions provided there.

  • Address other prerequisites

    # Install the EPEL repository:
    sudo yum -y install https://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/epel/epel-release-latest-7.noarch.rpm
    # Enable additional repositories to resolve dependencies:
    subscription-manager repos --enable "rhel-*-optional-rpms" --enable "rhel-*-extras-rpms"  --enable "rhel-ha-for-rhel-*-server-rpms"

Install the package

sudo yum -y install edb-oci
sudo yum -y install edb-oci-devel
