Load Balancing for EBS R12

Hi husssein,
I have a pc shuttle with test EBS R12 on RHEL4.6.
I want to practise/test installing "appsTier Load Balancing" because this is one of our client's requirement.
I have 1 laptop and i can borrow another from my officemate. I will install rhel4.6 both on the 2 laptops.
Is it possible to simulate testing on "appsTier Load Balancing" using the 2 laptops? and the dbTier resides on the
shuttle pc?
Thanks a lot

Hi,
Well, from your experience, which is difficult to setup/configure > Load Balancer or RAC?I would not compare, but personally I believe configuring load balancing is more straightforward.
By the way the term "RAC" is quite misleading. It means "Real Application Cluster" and yet it is used or point to the database Tier, when is should be on tha AppsTier because of the word "Application".
So why cannot they RAC the AppsTier?As mentioned above, RAC is a database feature which means you will need to have an Oracle database installed (Enterprise Edition) to configure RAC. For the application tier, you will have to use load balancing. Both RAC and Load balancing are forms of Clustering.

Hussein

BI applications for EBS R12 release in OBIA 7963 release

Hi all,
Can anybody list the BI applications for EBS R12 release which supported in OBIA 7.9.6.3?
Thanks
Ram

Are you referring to the EBS functional modules? BI Apps has a numbe of product families (Financial Analytics, HR Analytics, CRM Analytics..etc) that can source from EBS as well as other ERP systems (PeopleSoft, Siebel, JDEdwards..etc). If you are looking for the functional areas, I would suggest asking your Oracle rep for the "Product Guides" for the package you need (e.g Financial Analytics, HR Analytics..etc). Also there is a "Content Guide" you can find on metalink that lists the OOTB reports, dashboards, and Metadata content (RPD attributes).
Here is the list of DAC subject areas under the vanilla EBS container..it may help for now until you have the other docs:

Reverse Proxy and Load Balancer for SMP 2.3 and Agentry Application

Hi Expert,
I'm putting in place a mobile solution composed by SMP 2.3 SPS 4 and SAP ECC 6.0. In the SMP 2.3 I created the agentry server and I have deployed my agentry application.
My SMP/Agentry infrastructure is composed by two servers therefore I need a load balancer for balance the load into the several servers. Furthermore I need to use a reverse proxy in my DMZ zone.
Based on what indicated in the SAP note "1904213 - SAP Mobile Platform Server Release Information" the Apache Reverse Proxy is not supported for Agentry clients. Agentry uses nginx for Reverse Proxy.
I also found the following document How-to-Guide for Reverse Proxy and Load Balancing in SAP Mobile Platform 3.x that explain how to set-up a reverse proxy and load balancer with nginx and apache.
Both the SAP note and the HOW to document are refereed to SMP 3.0 and not to SMP 2.3.
I would know if the NGINX must be used also for SMP 2.3.
Any suggestion/information is appreciated.
Thanks in advance

Installing 2 Application server and 1 DB server and load balancing for 11i

Hi,
I need info on how to install and configure load balancing for 11.5.8 on Win2000. The scenario: 1 db server DB, 2 apps/web/forms servers AP1 and AP2. Using rapid install you can only specify one db server A and one form server in multi node installations, right? How do I install the form server on AP2? Can I use the same config.txt? The computer name for AP2 is different.
Thanks & Regards,
Jagal

I have the very same issue. We want to install 4 web/form servers on a hardware load-balancer and the issue is we can only specify one forms server.
Does anyone know the secret bullet here?
Thanks

Setting up Load Balancing for 11i for Intranet & Internet Access

Our current environment for 11i (11.5.5) is accessed only internally (via Intranet). We need to allow outside access (via Internet) also for self-service apps (ie. HR). Oracle Support/Metalink has stated that Load Balancing (note 148155.1) is the only supported method to have multiple (Apps Servers) systems access a single database. Could I get feedback from anyone who has implemented Load Balancing for 11i? Additionally if someone has implemented this for both intranet and internet access how has your company setup? Do the secondary server(s) from the Load Balancing note reside in the DMZ? And thus the primary app server and database reside inside the firewall? Thanks....

Hi,
We are using 6 middle tiers for internal access for intranet access and 2 middle tiers in External DMZ with only web server running for Extrenal Access over Internet for Self Service.
You Implement one Load Balancer for first 6 internal Middle Tiers with site level profiles pointing to Internal .
You implement second Load balancer for external 2 middle tiers with server level profile options for these two servers pointing to External Load balancer .

Load Balancing for Microsoft Orchestrator application

Hi Folks,
We are trying to configure Load Balancing for Orchestrator Server.
We have closely 200 users running a workflow.. so in that case, we need to configure the Runbook Server as a application load balancing cluster, so please do share me the configuration guides..
Regards,

Best regards, Venu.

I'm in the middle of doing this right now. There is a doc on metalink (233428.1) that details the process. I would highly recommend trying this in dev/test env first. Even though the instructions are very straight forward and not very complicated, I'm still having configuration issues.

Recommendation for setting up Data Guard for EBS R12 12.1.3

Hello Experts,
I would like to get some experts opinion and recommendation on setting up Data GUARD for EBS R12.1.3 running on Linux based systems.
Firstly I would wanna let you all know that I am just geek in this subject matter so do excuse me for any mistakes.
While we are planning on setting up Data Gurad fro R12 what are the best practices to consider ?.
We have 2 node rac enabled database and would wanna have non-rac based physical standby, based on this I believe that having db tier on remote or standby site is enough ?
if db node is enough for standby location what are things to be done when a fail over / switch over / role transitioned to standby for the app node from primary site to point db on the
standby location or do we have to have both apps and db tier @ stand by location
--However having a apps tier/node at standby will be of no use as we are planing to run db on mounstate meaning not a active data guard setup.
Please do reply with your recommendation/suggestions/pointers
Thanks in Advance.

Backup strategy for ebs R12?

Hi,
I have a couple of questions regarding to backup strategy for ebs R12.
Let's say that we have one application server and one database server running, and we would like to have a backup periodically for both servers.
This means that we want to have the exactly same backup of configurations and other files for the application server and the database server in case of any fatal crashes in the servers.
I went through some discussion threads and it seems common way is to use RMAN for the data of database and file system copy for application and database servers. But, I would like to know what's the best way or recommended way for the backup strategy for data and server files of Oracle e-business suite.
Do you guys have any suggestion for this?
Thanks in advance.
Cheers,
SH

Hi SH;
I suggest check first our previous discussion
backup and recovery startegy for EBS
Re: Backup System
Backup Policy for EBS can
If you make search you can find many other thread which is mention same question
For your issue basicly what we do
1. For our prod db, if possible we take weekly cold backup(sunday) and take rman backup also daily(full backup, but it depends system you can prefer to take incremental)
2. For our system we take file system backup weekly(OS base)
3. For application we take backup every sunday(for some system 15 days or 30 days period). The most important point here if your system prod, and if you need to apply patch to your system you need to have valid backup and also need backup for after patching
One other important issue is we run preclone sh before take backup for apps and db tier

Pre-requisite checker script for EBS R12 and R12.1

hi
is it possible to make a pre-requisite checker script (in perl or shell) for EBS R12 and R12.1 in RHEL5 or sun OS??
can anyone help / guide me to do so??
rgrds

I don't know about EBS R12, but apparently the Oracle Universal Installer can use options to just run the prerequisite checks without having to install the product.
E.g. /runInstaller -prereqChecker or -executeSysPrereqs

Network load balancer for Agentry applications

Hi Expert,
I'm going to implement a SAP Mobile Platform solution that will use an agentry application and I need some clarification about the HA configuration and the usage of the network load balancer and relay server. Just for information I'm going to use SMP 2.3 SP4.
My understanding is that Relay server is a reverse proxy and load balancer for SMP but It can't be used for the agentry applications. Is this correct?
Based on the standard configuration in order to balance the load of the client devices in the SMP cluster I have to use a Network load balancer, therefore the technical architecture of my solution should be the following:
|Agentry Client device| ----> | Network Load Balancer | ----> | SMP and Agentry Cluster| -----> |Back end systems|
Is this correct? I didn't find specifications about the Network load balancer.. Is there a list of the Network load balancer products supported from SAP for agentry application. Is there any best practice on the network load balancer?
Thank you in advance for you collaboration.

Because we don't test any directly with our QA we don't have have a preferred products. Talking to our consulting group they normally just use what the customer already has installed in their network. Both Software or hardware load balancers has been used.
The key part needed for the load balancer for Agentry 6.0.x and SMP 2.3 (not SMP 3) that it is set to TCP Pass through.

Does Traffic Manager provide database load balancing for MySQL?

I need two VMs to implement MySQL Cluster in Windows Azure. VMs allow configure endpoint load balance set for Mysql, but I did not find tcp protocol in Traffic Manager. Does it provide this service for database
load balancing?

Hi,
Traffic Manager works on the DNS level and routes traffic between public endpoints that sit behind a common DNS name. So you can't use this for your scenario.
However, You can implement
load balancing for VMs in another way.

Jdeveloper for EBS R12

Hi!
I'm looking for JDeveloper for EBS R12. I tried to download it from Metalink ( https://metalink2.oracle.com/metalink/plsql/f?p=130:14:8543317434215624048::::p14_database_id,p14_docid,p14_show_header,p14_show_help,p14_black_frame,p14_font:NOT,787209.1,1,1,1,helvetica ), but archives there are corrupted. Can anyone help me?
And one more question: I need only to develop GUI for application. Can I do this on machine with JDeveloper only installed (without EBS, Database, AS etc.) ?

eoipso,
I cannot really answer that question (it's too vague).
Let me attempt some guidelines:
1). If you are trying to modify parts of EBS which were built upon OAF: use OAF.
2). if you are writing a new page/new function in EBS, and that new page/function fits into a part of EBS that was built using OAF: use OAF.
3). If you are writing a new application that needs to use data/API's from EBS - you have lots of choices, including ADF/OAF. If the application was separate to EBS, I personally would use ADF instead of OAF, because ADF is more flexible, and I find developing UI's in OAF tedious, but that's just my experience. If you were an OAF wizard, you might feel otherwise.
