Oracle Fusion Applications Installation: Creating a new Provisioning Plan

Previous: Preparing Identity and Policy Store

In order to create a new fusion applications provisioning plan we should launch the provisioning wizard again from <framework_location>/provisioning/bin

<framework_location> is same what we mentioned in previous post. i.e. /app/fusion

[oracle@fusion $ cd /app/fusion/provisioning/bin

[oracle@fusion bin]$ ./provisioningWizard.sh

On Welcome screen, click Next

Select “Create a New Applications Environment Provisioning Plan” and click Next

Deselect Security updates notification and click Next

Please note that in Fusion Applications each Applications will include multiple Weblogic Managed Servers, admin servers etc and since our Virtual Machine is not having sufficient capacity to host all these applications, we selected “Oracle Human Capital Management”. You can select any product which you wish to configure first. Click Details to see the topology details for the selected module.

Click Close and then Next on configurations screen.

In this screen provide any name to this provisioning plan. Click Next

Since we entered “weblogic” as Node Manager login earlier, provide its credentials.

Installers Directory Location: The stage or repository location. In our case /mnt/fusion

Oracle Fusion Applications Home: Provide base location for the installation. /app/fusion

Enter /app/fusion/instance for Application Configuration Directory.

As we have noted the location for Webgate Library earlier in Previous post, enter /app/fusion/oam_lib

We had created IDM Properties file /app/fusion/bea_default/Oracle_IAM/idmtools/bin/idmDomainConfig.param in previous post.

RDP Password: oracle123

Click Next

Accept default values. Click Next

Enter database details in this screen. Click Next

Enter same password. Lets’ keep oracle123 again J

This will only accept earlier entered ODI Supervisor password. In our case, nothing to worry since we have all passwords as oracle123

Password: oracle (it validated this password)

We are going to have single host for all domains. Enter our hostname “fusion” and click Next

Deselect DMZ, enter host as fusion, domain as fusion.local. Click Next

Change at least the internal names as above to keep it simple. Click Next

Since we are going to have the simplest installation, deselect Load Balancing. Click Next

Deselect Proxy. Click Next

Entered following values only, remaining were populated from idmDomainConfig.param file

Super User Name: orcladmin

Checked “Create Administrators Group”, “Create Monitors Group”, “Create Operators Group”

Entered oracle123 in both password fields

Unchecked “Identity Store Enabled SSL”, “OIM Endpoint Enabled SSL”

OIM Administrator User Name: xelsysadmin

OIM Administrator Password: oracle123

OIM Managed Server port: 7004

OIM Endpoint Host: fusion (this is because we did not configure load balancing)

OIM Endpoint Port: 7777 (again because we didn’t configure load balancing)

IDM Keystore file: Create a dummy file anywhere on Linux and enter its path here.

[oracle@fusion]$ touch /app/fusion/provisioining/dummy

IDM KeyStore Password: Enter any value

OAM Administrator User Name: oamadmin

OAM Administrator Password: oracle123 (as defined earlier)

OAM AAA Server Host: fusion

OAM AAA Server Port: 5575 (Default and also defined earlier)

Access Server Identifier: wls_oam1

Unchecked OPSS Policy Store SSL Enabled

Deselect Secondary OAM.

OAM Security Mode: Open

Webgate password: oracle123 (as entered earlier in previous post)

Remaining fields already poputed due to idmDomainConfig.param file. Deselect last 2 options. Click Next

Enter Database Details. Also enter DEV_MDS and password (defined earlier during installation in previous post). Click Next

Click Finish to complete creating the plan.

Next: Provisioning an Applications Environment

Installing Oracle Fusion Applications – steps

1. Installing Fusion Applications Provisioning Framework
   
2. Installing Oracle 11g Database (Applications Transactional Database)
   
3. Running Oracle Fusion Applications Repository Creation Utility (Applications RCU)
   
4. Creating another database for Oracle  Identity Management Infrastructure (optional)
   
5. Running Repository Creation Utility (RCU) for Oracle Identity Management components
6. Installing Oracle Identity and Access Management Components
   
7. Configuring Oracle Identity and Access Management components
   
8. Preparing Identity and Policy Stores
   
9. Creating a New Provisioning Plan
   
10. Provisioning an Applications Environment

Oracle Fusion Applications installation: Running Repository Creation Utility (RCU) for Oracle Identity Management Components

Previous: Running Oracle Fusion Applications Repository Creation Utility (Applications RCU)

Important Note: We are NOT creating a separate database to host Oracle Identity Management schemas. Instead we will create these schemas in our Fusion Database (fusiondb) itself since the schema names are distinct compared to Fusion Application schemas. We will save a lot of Memory for our Virtual Machine.

In order to run RCU for Identity Management on same database, we must set the open_cursors parameter to 800.

Open a new database session and set following values.

SQL> show parameter open_cursors

NAME TYPE VALUE

———————————— ———– ——————————

open_cursors integer 500

SQL> alter system set open_cursors=800 scope=both sid=’*';

System altered.

Launch Repository Creation Utility for Oracle Identity Management from <Framework_location>/fmw_rcu/bin location

[oracle@fusion bin]$ /app/fusion/provisioning/fmw_rcu/bin/rcu &

Click Next

Select Create and click Next

Enter the database information (for same fusiondb database as entered earlier. Click Next

Next it will check for required prerequisites. Upon successful check click OK

Click Idnentity Management. It will select few other required components also automatically. Click Next

Again it will check prerequisites for the selected components. Upon successful check click OK

Enter same password oracle123 for ease of remembering. Click Next

No need to change anything in this screen. Click Next

Click OK

It will create the required tablespaces. Once finished click OK

On this summary screen click Create to create required schemas and load data.

This will be quicker than earlier RCU. Once finished proceed to next screen.

Finally it will display Completion Summary. Clock Close

Many users face issue running Oracle forms on Microsoft Internet Explorer 8 (IE8) which causes the page to redirect to following url

res://ieframe.dll/acr_depnx_error.htm#<domain>,http://<server>:<port>/forms/frmservlet?config=<config>

It displays following error.

Internet explorer has closed this webpage to help protect your computer

A malfunctioning or malicious add-on has caused Internet Explorer to close this webpage.

Solution:

Goto Internet Explorer -> Tools -> Internet Options -> Advanced -> Scroll down to Security -> Uncheck “Enable memory protection to help mitigate online attacks*”

Close all browser windows and restart the browser. The issue should have been fixed

Edit: Alternatively you can use either of following 2 alternate solutions.

Alternate 2:

Open registry using start->Run->regedit->ok

Go to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main

On the right hand side you will see a DWORD key called DEPOff. IF this is set to value 0, just change it to 1 and close registry editor.

Restart Internet Explorer and check if the problem has been fixed or not.

Alternate 3:

Right click on My Computer->Properties (or start->Run->sysdm.cpl->ok)

Click on “Advanced” Tab. Click on “Settings” button next to Performance.

Click on last tab “Data Execution Prevention”

Select Second option and then select “Internet Explorer” from the bottom pan.

(If “Internet Explorer” is not already present there then just click on “Add” and then select “c:\Program Files\Internet Explorer\iexplore.exe”)

Click OK and restart internet explorer. The problem should have been fixed.
