The requirements can directly be derived from the above paragraph and the
intended goal: First, you need an Oracle Database Server up and running,
otherwise you won't need any of the IZ_Migration scripts :) Second, the instance(s)
of this Database Server you want IZ_Migration to work on need to have PL/SQL
installed, otherwise the package cannot be processed by them. And last but
not least, you need a Unix Shell (the IZ_Migration installation script has
been successfully tested with the Bash Shell). This does imply that the
IZ_Migration installation script runs in *nix environments (Linux, Solaris,
AIX, etc. - but it is not tested on all platforms, so reports are welcome).
There are Shell environments available for Windows as well, like CygWin - but
since I didn't test any scripts in those environments I cannot guarantee that
they will run with those; again, reports are welcome. In the worst case,
if you are running Windows only you can take the Shell script and extract the
SQL code from it. There are just very few variables to replace.
