V. Use of RDA
In UNIX operating systems, Oracle recommends execution under the database creation user (typically Oracle users), and the first use requires a collection of initial configuration.
To execute a command:
$./rda.sh-s
After the command is executed, a wizard interface allows you to complete the initial configuration based on the actual installed product of the current database. Configuration files Setup.cfg, Setup.bak are generated in the RDA directory after the configuration is completed, and can be modified directly if the configuration parameters need to be readjusted.
The configuration process is typically a default value, or if you are prompted to enter parameters, special places are as follows:
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Enter an Oracle User ID (userid only) to view Dba_ and v$ tables
If RDA would be run under the Oracle software owner ' s ID, enter a '/' here,
