NOTE: You must install the Oracle JDBC driver, version 11.2.0.4. You can download
this driver from the Oracle website at http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/database/
enterprise-edition/jdbc-112010-090769.html.
NOTE: The Oracle database must be created with Unicode character set of AL32UTF8
and national character set of AL16UTF16 before installing HP SIM. The NLS Length must
be set to BYTE. You must also specify the thin client .jar file location. HP SIM requires
Oracle database and Transparent Network Substrate (TNS) listener services to be up and
running when system is restarted. Oracle by itself does not start the Oracle database and
TNS listener automatically. An Oracle database administrator (DBA) must set these services
to be restarted when the server is reset. See the Oracle documentation for details on how
to auto start these services at http://docs.oracle.com/html/A96167_01/post-inst.htm.
Access to this link requires registration. The Oracle DBA who manages the Oracle
installation must perform this task.
