The Generic Oracle Backend is a [Generic SQL backend](backend-generic-sql.md).
The default setup conforms to the following schema, which you should add to an
Oracle database. You may need or want to add `namespace` statements.

```
!!include=../modules/goraclebackend/schema.goracle.sql
```

This schema contains all elements needed for master, slave and superslave operation.

Inserting records is a bit different compared to MySQL and PostgreSQL, you should use:

```
INSERT INTO domains (id,name,type) VALUES (domains_id_sequence.nextval, 'example.net', 'NATIVE');
```

# Settings
## `goracle-tnsname`
Which TNSNAME the Generic Oracle Backend should be connecting to. There are no
`goracle-dbname`, `goracle-host` or `goracle-port` settings, their equivalent is
in `/etc/tnsnames.ora`.

## `goracle-dnssec`
Enable DNSSEC processing for this backend. Default=no.
