Migrating Oracle GoldenGate from the Classic Architecture to the Microservices Architecture within the same version (19c)
Migrating Oracle GoldenGate from the Classic Architecture to the Microservices Architecture within the same version (19c) involves several steps and considerations. Below is a step-by-step guide on how to perform this migration:
### Pre-Migration Checklist
1. **Backup Data**: Before beginning the migration, ensure all your configurations, trail files, and databases are fully backed up.
2. **Check Compatibility**: Ensure your current environment and all components are compatible with the Microservices Architecture.
3. **Documentation and Planning**: Review Oracle's official documentation for any specific prerequisites and considerations for migration.
### Migration Steps
#### Step 1: Prepare the Environment
- Install the Oracle GoldenGate Microservices Architecture (OGG MA) on the desired system. This can be the same system where Classic is installed or a different one.
```bash
# Example command to install OGG MA
unzip <OGG_ZIP_FILE>.zip
cd <OGG_DIRECTORY>
./oggca.sh
```
#### Step 2: Configure the Service Manager
- Start the Service Manager, which is the core component of the Microservices Architecture.
```bash
# Navigate to the OGG MA home directory
cd /path/to/ogg_microservices
# Start the Service Manager
./bin/ServiceManager
```
#### Step 3: Set Up the Microservices Deployment
- Access the Service Manager web interface (default URL is `http://hostname:port` where `port` is usually 9000).
- Configure the Deployment and create the necessary Distribution Paths and Receivers.
#### Step 4: Export and Import Configuration
- Use the Oracle GoldenGate Admin Client to export the configuration from the Classic architecture.
```bash
# Connect to the Classic deployment
./ggsci
# Export configuration
DBLOGIN USERIDALIAS <alias>
EXPORT CONFIG TOGGSCHEMA.xml
```
- Import the configuration into the Microservices deployment.
```bash
# Use the Admin Client for Microservices
./adminclient
# Connect to the Microservices deployment
CONNECT TO http://hostname:port
# Import configuration
IMPORT CONFIG FROMGGSCHEMA.xml
```
#### Step 5: Validate and Start Processes
- Ensure all paths are correctly set up and validate the configuration.
- Start the processes and begin the data replication.
```bash
# Start Extract and Replicat processes
START EXTRACT <extract_name>
START REPLICAT <replicat_name>
```
#### Step 6: Monitoring
- Use the Oracle GoldenGate Performance Metrics and the web interface to monitor the replication and handle any errors.
### Post-Migration
- Validate the data synchronization status.
- Decommission the old Classic architecture components after ensuring the Microservices deployment is stable.
