Installing Oracle Times ten In-Memory Database
NOTE: If you are configuring TimesTen for use with Oracle Clusterware, the
daemon port number must be the same across all TimesTen installations
managed within the same Oracle Clusterware cluster.
NOTE: All installations that replicate to each other must use the same daemon
port number that is set at installation time. The daemon port number can
be verified by running 'ttVersion'.
The default port number is 53396.
Do you want to use the default port number for the TimesTen daemon? [ yes ]
The daemon will run on the default port number (53396).
NOTE: For security, we recommend that you restrict access to the
TimesTen installation to members of a single OS group. Only members of
that OS group will be allowed to perform direct mode connections to
TimesTen, and only members of that OS group will be allowed to perform
operations that access TimesTen data stores, TimesTen files and shared
memory. The OS group defaults to the primary group of the instance
administrator. You can default to this group, choose another OS group
or you can make this instance world-accessible. If you choose to make
this instance world-accessible, all database files and shared memory
are readable and writable by all users.
Restrict access to the the TimesTen installation to the group 'oinstall'? [ yes ]
Please enter a value for TNS_ADMIN (s=skip)? [ ] /u01/app/fmw/Oracle_BI1/network/admin
TNS_ADMIN will be set to /u01/app/fmw/Oracle_BI1/network/admin
You can change TNS_ADMIN later by running <install_dir>/bin/ttmodinstall.

NOTE: It appears that you are running version 4 or higher of the g++
compiler. TimesTen ships with multiple sets of client libraries and server
binaries : one built for compatibility with g++ 3.4.6 and one with
g++ 4.1.0. The installer has created links to the 4.1.0 library in the
<install_dir>/lib directory and to the 4.1.0 server binary in the
<install_dir>/bin directory. If you want to use a different compiler,
please modify the links to point to the desired library and server binary.
