Recommended Postinstallation Tasks
Oracle recommends that you perform the tasks in the following sections after completing an installation:
- Configuring Instant Client Light
To configure Instant Client Light, you must make it the default instead of Instant Client. - Connecting Oracle Database Client to an Oracle Database
After you run Oracle Universal Installer to install Oracle Database Client, you must use Oracle Net Configuration Assistant (NETCA) to configure Oracle Database Client to connect to an Oracle database. - Connecting Instant Client or Instant Client Light to an Oracle Database
Before you can connect Instant Client or Instant Client Light to an Oracle Database, ensure that the PATH environment variable specifies the directory that contains the Instant Client libraries. - Changing the Oracle Home User Password
Oracle Home User Control is a command-line utility that allows an administrator to update the password for an Oracle Home User. - Creating the OraMTS Service for Microsoft Transaction Server
Oracle Services for Microsoft Transaction Server (OraMTS) permit Oracle databases to be used as resource managers in Microsoft application coordinated transactions. - Creating the Scheduler Agent
The Oracle Scheduler Execution Agent permits Oracle Database clients to run Scheduler jobs at the request of an Oracle instance which can be located on a remote host.
