Go to the GoldenGate installation directory "/u01/gghome" and execute ldd ggsci command.
This command will help us to list out the missing shared library files.

[oracle@ggsource.doyensys.com]$ ldd ggsci
        linux-vdso.so.1 =>  (0x00007fffac7cb000)

Now check the missing library files and create the soft link for those library's.

[oracle@ggsource.doyensys.com]$ cd $ORACLE_HOME/lib/
[oracle@ggsource.doyensys.com lib]$ ls -tlr libnnz12.so
-rwxr-xr-x 1 oracle oinstall 6318657 Aug  1 02:08 libnnz12.so
[oracle@Node 1 lib]$ cd -

[oracle@ggsource.doyensys.com]$ ln -s $ORACLE_HOME/lib/libnnz12.so libnnz12.so
[oracle@ggsource.doyensys.com]$ pwd
/u01/gghome

[oracle@ggsource.doyensys.com]$ ln -s $ORACLE_HOME/lib/libclntsh.so.12.1 libclntsh.so.12.1
[oracle@ggsource.doyensys.com]$ ln -s $ORACLE_HOME/lib/libons.so libons.so
[oracle@ggsource.doyensys.com]$ ln -s $ORACLE_HOME/lib/libclntshcore.so.12.1 libclntshcore.so.12.1

Now invoke the GoldenGate ggsci
$ ./ggsci
