INSTALL THE ORACLE DATABASE CLOUD BACKUP MODULE

1.a DOWNLOAD opc_installer.zip FROM:

http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/database/availability/oracle-cloud-backup-
2162729.html

1.b UNZIP THE opc_installer.zip TO A FOLDER ON YOUR WINDOWS PC

2.LOGIN TO THE DBCS VM AND CONFIRM JAVA VERSION ON THE DBCS CLOUD VM - SHOULD BE
1.5 OR HIGHER

[oracle@KCB1 ~]$ java -version

java version "1.7.0_75"
OpenJDK Runtime Environment (rhel-2.5.4.0.0.1.el6_6-x86_64 u75-b13)
OpenJDK 64-Bit Server VM (build 24.75-b04, mixed mode)
[oracle@KCB1 ~]$

3. USE WINSCP TO UPLOAD THE opc_install.jar FILE TO THE DBCS VM (YOU MAY CREATE A
DIRECTORY IN THE oracle HOME)

4. CONFIGURE THE CLOUD DATABASE BACKUP SYNTAX. e.g.

[REFER TO: https://docs.oracle.com/cloud/latest/dbbackup_gs/CSDBB/GUID-4E945356-
