Installing and Setting Up Oracle BI Applications

DAC Configuration Handled by the DAC Installer
The DAC installer handles the following configuration:
In the config.bat file, the DAC installer configures the JAVA_HOME and DAC_
HOME variables.
In the dac_env.bat file, the DAC installer creates an environment variable named
INFA_DOMAINS_FILE and sets the value to the directory path of the domans.infa
file.
The DAC installer adds the directory path to Informatica PowerCenter binaries to
the PATH environment variable.
4.7.2 Installing the DAC Server on UNIX
The DAC Server can run on Linux, but it must first be installed on a Windows
machine, then copied over to a Linux machine, as described in the steps below. Oracle
does not provides an installer for DAC on UNIX.
When installing a DAC Server, note the following prerequisites:
On the UNIX machine, make sure the following are installed:
JDK version 1.6.0 or higher
Zip and unzip utility
Make sure that Informatica PowerCenter Services is co-located on the machine
that will host the DAC Server. For more information, see
Section 4.6, "Installing
and Setting Up Informatica PowerCenter."
Make sure that Informatica has been configured according to the instructions in
Section 4.6.6, "Configuring Informatica PowerCenter Components."
