To successfully complete this quicktart, you must have the following:

• A PostgreSQL installation to serve as the source database (Installation instructions follow in Environment set up.)
• Open port 5432 in your VCN's security list.
• Create a connection to Google Cloud Storage.
  Note
  
  Ensure that the GCS bucket and the BigQuery dataset exist in the same location/region.
• Google Cloud Service Account Key.
• Google Cloud Platform BigQuery Permissions.

1. Install PostgreSQL.
   1. Install PostgreSQL server:

      sudo yum install postgresql-server

   2. Install postgresql-contrib module to avoid this SQL exception:

      sudo yum install postgresql-contrib

   3. Create a new PostgreSQL database cluster:

      sudo postgresql-setup --initdb

   4. Enable the postgresql.service:

      sudo systemctl enable postgresql.service

   5. Start the postgresql.service:

      sudo systemctl start postgresql.service

2. By default, PostgreSQL only allows local connections. Allow remote connectivity to PostgreSQL.
   1. In /var/lib/pgsql/data/postgresql.conf, prepare the database for replication:
      1. Locate and uncomment listen_addresses = 'localhost' and change localhost to an asterisk (*):

         listen_addresses = '*'

      2. Set the following parameters as follows:
         • wal_level = logical
         • max_replication_slots = 1
         • max_wal_senders = 1
         • track_commit_timestamp = on

      Note
      
      Configure /var/lib/pgsql/data/pg_hba.conf to ensure that client authentication is set to allow connections from an Oracle GoldenGate host. For example, add the following:

      #Allow connections from remote hosts
      host    all    all    0.0.0.0/0    md5

      See The pg_hba.conf File for more information.
   2. Restart PostgreSQL server:

      sudo systemctl restart postgresql.service

3. If using Oracle Cloud Compute to host PostgreSQL, open port 5432:

   sudo firewall-cmd --permanent --add-port=5432/tcp
   sudo firewall-cmd --reload
   sudo firewall-cmd --list-all

4. Open port 5432 in your VCN's security list.
5. Connect to PostgreSQL.

   > sudo su - postgres
   > psql

6. Set up PostgreSQL.
   1. Download and run seedSRCOCIGGLL_PostgreSQL.sql to set up the database and load the sample data.
   2. Run the following commands to set up the user:

      create user ggadmin with password 'W3lcome@1234';
      alter user ggadmin with SUPERUSER;
      GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON DATABASE ociggll TO ggadmin;
