Create the SQL Server Change Database
Important
Change Data Capture for Oracle by Attunity is deprecated now. For details, refer to the announcement.
When you start the New Instance wizard, the Create CDC Database page opens. Use the Create CDC Database page to provide information about the new CDC instance and create a new Change database.
When you create a new CDC database it is enabled for SQL Server CDC and this enablement requires a login that is a member of the sysadmin
fixed-server role.
When a user that starts the Create an Oracle CDC Instance wizard is not a member of the sysadmin
fixed-server role, the Connect to SQL Server dialog box opens and requests the credentials for a member of the sysadmin role to carry out the Enable the database for SQL Server CDC task. When the CDC database is created, the sysadmin
login is discarded and work resumes with the original SQL Server login used when the Oracle Designer Console was entered.
Important
For tasks other than Enable the database for SQL Server CDC of, the SQL Server login used for running the New Instance Wizard must have the dbcreator
fixed-server role and UPDATE permissions on the MSXDBCDC database.
For information on entering the data in the Connect to SQL Server dialog box, see SQL Server Connection for Instance Creation.
