App. server Certification for OCP DBA

Greetings !!!!!!!!!
I am OCP Database Administrator in 10g,9i,8i and now I am planning to take the certification in App Server.
Can someone please tell me which exam should I write to get app server certified?
Do I need to write two exams or only with one exam I can get the app server certification?
Thanks in Advance !!!!!!!!!!
Regards
null

There are two exams to get OCP Application server 10g DBA similar to the OCP Database 10g exams. The exam names are
Oracle 10g Application server Administration I
Oracle 10g Application server Administration II
If you clear the first exam you get 'Oracle Certified Associate OCA' certificate and after clearing the second exam and attending a Application Server Administration training from Oracle University will fetch you the 'Oracle Certified Professional OCP' certificate.
This is similar to the Oracle Database 10g OCP DBA program.
To get more details you can follow the link,

Office Web Apps Server Certificate For External

Hi guys,
I am requesting a DigiCert certificate for my environment Exchange 2013.
Can I include the SAN name for Office Web Apps server, such as externalowa.domain.com in to the Exchange generated certificate?
From theory wise it seems logic, but kind of uncertain.
Thanks and Regards,
Low.

Hi Nithyanandham,
Thanks for the prompt reply
I will just list down what I did to be more clear.
I generated a CSR from Exchange 2013 with the following
Webmail.domain.com - for Outlook Web Access, Outlook Anywhere, ActiveSync
Autodiscover.domain.com - for AutoDiscover purposes
Can I include the externalowa.domain.com, which is for Office Web Apps server
Reason is because the Exchange server and Office Web Apps server is located differently. Am I doing the correct way?
Thanks and Regards,
Low

High Availibity solution for office web app server 2013 for Sharepoint 2013

I have a scenario with the three nodes SP1 , SP2 and DR-SP with server 2012 standard, each running SharePoint 2013 enterprise, All of three nodes are members of single SharePoint farm that spans two data centers.Primary Data Center have two nodes SP1 , SP2
and DR data center have one node DR-SP of share point 2013.
For Office webapp server i have two nodes OWA1, and DR-OWA with server 2012 standard, that spans between two data centers.Primary Data Center have OWA1 and DR data center have one node DR-OWA of office web app server.
Currently i have configured office web app on primary data center node OWA .How i can enable high availability of office web app server in case of primary data center outage.Please guide.

WAC servers on a single farm must be in the same data center. The WAC configuration you've proposed is unsupported. Build a separate WAC farm in the secondary data center and attach it to the SharePoint farm only in the event of a disaster.

How to prepare for OCP DBA exams

I am a graduate of geology from the University of Ibadan, Nigeria. I got intereted in OCP DBA when i saw Jason Couchman book 'Oracle8i certified professional DBA certificaton Exam Guide' with a friend. i never had any experience in database before but when i started reading the book i could do one or two things.
Now, my goal is to get certified one day but the only constraint right now is how to. Can i prepare and pass by reading this book alone or do i have to get other materials?
If i have to get other material, i will appreciate it if it can be sent as getting them here is realy hard.
Please, mail me soon. Thank you in advance.

There may be several kind of interviews, when I conducted technical interviews I let the guy talk about a topic, and I start asking about particularities. For me it is very important how accurate and documented is. And over all if the person is just trying to answer just to have a sound comming from his mouth, or if the person really knows what he or she is talking about. It is very very important to be honest at all time.

How to make the App Server Listen for HTTPS

I have a web application that needs to be accesible over an HTTPS connection, not HTTP.
When I deploy an application with Java Studio Creator to the App Server it is automatically set to an HTTP URL. How do I setup HTTPS ?
Thank you in advance,
Joe Paladin

Looks like I should have thanked myself in advance....
Turns out its pretty easy. Open the admin console, go to configuration, add and HTTP listener, check the security check box, and fill out the other mandatory fields like the port. Standard SSL port is 443.
Save changes, and restart the App Server. Any deployed apps should be reachable via https://localhost:443/myWebApp
This approach uses a default certificate that comes with the app server. Here is a link if you want to create a certificate :

Integrated ITS in a Separate App Server (DI) for Security and LoadBalancing

Hi Experts,
I have a specific requirement for ITS Configuration.
1. Production Server ( CI + DB ) -> Existing
[ ERP6.0 ]
OS : Solaris 10
DB : oracle 10.2.0.2
H/W: PRIMEPOWER650
Unicode Enabled
2. Application Server ( DI ) --> to be made ( and to be used exclusively for Web users)
OS : Windows2003 sv
H/W: RX200 S3
x64
MEM: 8GB
No. 1 is existing Production Server Environment.
The Customer Requirement.
The Customer wants to use the ITS . But he doesn't want the existing Production Server to be disturbed for the same for 2 reasons. [ Security and Load Balancing ]
We are planning to create a Separate Application Server (DI) to work as ITS.
As the Kernel is 700. The ITS is integrated into the Production Server by Default.
We have written to SAP and have asked whether the Production Server ITS can be disabled and the Separate DI's ITS be enabled so that the NEW ( No.2 ) Application Server will be used for ITS activities.
SAP has replied saying the Integrated ITS cannot be disabled at the Production Server. Instead as an alternative we can create a Logon Group (using transaction SMLG) and divert all the Web users to the Separated DI (No.2). We have decided to go according to SAP.
Now I have the following questions :
1. The Operating Systems of the Production Server (No.1) and the Separate AP (No. 2)
are different. ( Are there any complexities involved or must do points to be taken care. )
2. Brief / MUST DO tasks at the Production Server Environment and Must do tasks at the DI Environment.
I hope someone has already done some few installations on the above combination, if so, request to please share me your ideas.
Thanks in anticipation
Best Regards,
Paguras
PS :
my earlier discussion on the same topic on this community.
ITS Specific Requirement

Hi Markus,
Thanks for the Reply.
We have the following 2 plans :
Plan-01.
As you have advised, we will try to disable ITS of CI and enable ITS of DI.
Plan-02.
If Plan-01 could be worked out successfully, well implement as per SAP suggests. Creating a Logon Group and divert all the web users to the DI alone.
To deactivate ITS on CI, you have mentioned to make sure, that the system does not listen on the HTTP port (transaction SMICM) on the Servers
BTW, I have seen a parameter called <b>ITSP/ENABLE</b>. if we deactivate this parameter at CI & DB and then activate the same parameter at DI.
My questions to you :
1. Shall we go for Plan-01 ignoring what SAP OSS has said. ?
2. Disable ITSP/Enable Parameter -> CI & DB
Enable ITSP/Enable Parameter -> DI has to be implemented .
Thanks & best Regards,
Paguras
PS: Sorry for always pounding you with so many questions on the same topic.
SAP Help on ITSP / enable parameter
itsp/enable
You use this parameter to deactivate (0) or activate (1) the integrated ITS. Even if the integrated ITS is activated, it only accesses system resources when it is actually used. Nevertheless, it can make sense to deactivate it to prevent users from accessing the SAP system with SAP GUI for HTML via special application servers (such as batch or update instances). Since the conversion of SAP screens into HTML pages uses additional CPU time, it makes sense to reserve a number of dedicated application servers to be used with SAP GUI for HTML and to use a special logon group to balance the load between them.

Office web apps server 2013 - launching search on loading page

Hello!
I use Office Web Apps Server 2013 for viewing documents on internal portal (it is not SharePoint, and documents is read only) with automatic generating links. Links are generated according instruction
on http://<OWA host>/op/generate.aspx (for example, http://<OWA host>/op/view.aspx?src=<path to file>).
I have some questions:
1) In some cases, when a document is openedI want
immediately start the search with some terms.
Can I give terms
to search in url params in generated url? For example, http://<OWA host>/op/view.aspx?src=<path to file>#search=<terms>?
Is there any other
way to run a search on page load?
2) I want to use multi-term search (when my search query is 'tame tamed taming', and
all individual words ('tame', 'tamed', 'taming')
are highlighted in document).
Is there a way to do it?
3)I want to use whole-word search (when my search query is'act', and words 'practice' or 'action' are not
highlighted in document).
Is there a way to do it?

How to access JDBC Resource registered in Sun Java System App Server ?

I want to create a stand-alone JDBC application with Java SE using Swing technologies and JNDI technology. The purpose of using JNDI technology is to avoid change of Java Source Code every time I move the database to different location. This Java application will be used in a standalone PC installed with Windows XP Professional with no LAN / WAN connection. Of course, Internet connection is available with the PC.
I use JavaDB to store the data tables and the location of the database is D:\E-DRIVE\SAPDEV. Tomorrow, if I move this database to C:\SAPDEV or any network drive, I do not want to change the Java Source code. I want to use JNDI which, if I am not wrong, helps developers to avoid manual change of Java source code whenever the database location is changed. Changes have to be made only in the JNDI Name which contains all relevant information about the database in order to get connection no matter where the database SAPDEV is stored; it can be placed under D:\E-DRIVE directory or C:\ directory of the hard disk. To implement my intention, I started developing Java application as per the steps mentioned below:
Step 1:
To proceed, first, I sought the help of Sun Java System Application Server Admin Console. I created JNDI object for Connection Pool using the menu path Common Tasks->Resources->JDBC->Connection Pools.
JNDI Name : ABAPRPY
Resource Type : javax.sql.DataSource
Datasource class : org.apache.derby.jdbc.ClientDataSource
Description : ABAP Program Repository
The Connection Pool creation has options for General, Advanced and Additional Settings tabs and I made all the settings relevant to the database I created in D:\E-DRIVE\SAPDEV.
To confirm whether the above settings are correct, I pressed the Ping push button which is available in the General tab of the connection pool creation screen. The system responded with the message Ping Succeeded.
Step 2:
I created a JDBC Resource using the menu path Common Tasks->Resources->JDBC->JDBC Resources.
JNDI Name : jdbc/SAPDEV
Pool Name : ABAPRPY
Description : Database Connection for SAPDEV database
Status : Enabled
I can see all the above settings recorded in the domain.xml which is placed in the folder
C:\Sun\AppServer\domains\domain1\config
Step 3:
I have made sure that Sun Java System Application Server is up and running in the background with JavaDB server. I created a Java Program making sure the following JAR files are included in the classpath:
appserv-admin.jar
appserv-ee.jar
appserv-rt.jar
javaee.jar
fscontext.jar
Plus, the lib directory of JDK 1.6 & C:\Sun\AppServer\domains\domain1\config
Source code of the program is as follows: I used NetBeans IDE to create my project file.
import java.util.logging.Level;
import java.util.logging.Logger;
import javax.naming.*;
import javax.activation.DataSource;
public class JNDILookup {
public static void main(String[] args) {
try {
InitialContext initCtx = new InitialContext();
DataSource ds = (DataSource) initCtx.lookup("java:comp/env/jdbc/sapdev>");
} catch (NamingException ex) {
Logger.getLogger(JNDILookup.class.getName()).log(Level.SEVERE, null, ex);
When I attempted to compile the above program in NetBeans IDE ,no compilation error reported. But while executing the program, I got the following run-time error message:
SEVERE: null
javax.naming.NameNotFoundException: No object bound for java:comp/env/jdbc/sapdev> [Root exception is java.lang.NullPointerException]
at com.sun.enterprise.naming.java.javaURLContext.lookup(javaURLContext.java:224)
at com.sun.enterprise.naming.SerialContext.lookup(SerialContext.java:396)
at javax.naming.InitialContext.lookup(InitialContext.java:392)
at SAPConnect.JNDILookup.main(JNDILookup.java:21)
Caused by: java.lang.NullPointerException
at com.sun.enterprise.naming.java.javaURLContext.lookup(javaURLContext.java:173)
... 3 more
Now, I want to come out of this situation; at the same time, I want to preserve the settings I have made in the Sun Java System Application Server Admin Console. That is, I want to programmatically access the data source using Connection Pool created in Sun Java System Application Server Admin Console.
I request dear forum members to provide me an appropriate solution.
Thanks and regards,
K. Rangarajan.

Bare in mind I am attempting the context.lookup() from inside the container (my code is in a session bean). I have accessed the server and have my bean "say hello" first to verify the bean works OK, then I call a method with this rather standard code:

You are fine here. It works in container because the InitialContext properties have been supplied already. That was the link I forwarded earlier. The InitialContext you create locally needs to locate the container JNDI. That is what the properties specify.
Where I am confused is where you indicate the stack below is from the server log. So, you initiate a standalone (java main method) application, create an InitialContext, and you see the results in your app server log?
LDR5010: All ejb(s) of [EJB_Module_1] loaded successfully!
Programatically acquiring JNDI DataDource: Second_EJB_Module_DataBase
The log message is null.
javax.naming.NameNotFoundException: Second_EJB_Module_DataBase not found
at com.sun.enterprise.naming.TransientContext.doLookup(TransientContext.java:216)
at com.sun.enterprise.naming.TransientContext.lookup(TransientContext.java:188)
at com.sun.enterprise.naming.TransientContext.lookup(TransientContext.java:192)...
at com.sun.corba.ee.impl.orbutil.threadpool.ThreadPoolImpl$WorkerThread.run(ThreadPoolImpl.java:555)
This is strange since I can see this resource (a JDBC connection named Second_EJB_Module_DataBase) is configured on the server from the server's admin console.
That is why you can obtain a lookup from within the container (app server).
For this lookup to work it may be that one must map the name inside an ejb-jar.xml deployed with the application, but I have also read some resources like jdbc connection should have a default name. Does anyone know if my lookup() should work without using an ejb-jar.xml mfile to explcitly map the reource for my application?
Both EBJ's and data sources can be referenced via JNDI. It's a remote lookup (that is normally optimized if it is running in the same JVM). You should not have any dependencies on a JDBC data source being set-up on ejb-jar.xml. That file can of course impact your EJB's. However, data sources are normally set-up on a container-specific basis (e.g., you probably did it through a console, but there is a spec somewhere about how to set up a data source via a resource the app server looks for; it varies from app server to app server). However, once you have that container-specific data source set-up, JNDI operates vendor-neutral. You should be able to take the code above and move it to JBoss or Weblogic or Tomcat or whatever (this is an ideal, in practice, the vendors sometimes put a data source in a name you would not expect, but again, you can use their JMX console to see what the JNDI name is).
(As I stated above if I have to use a deployment discriptor to get at this JNDI datasource, then solution is not "programmatic" as newly configured datasources could not be accessed without redeploying the entire application).
As JSchell alluded to, you will always have at least something vendor-specific. JNDI itself (the code you wrote) is totally portable. However, you have to set the various JNDI environment properties to a given vendor's spec. Ideally, you should not need a vendor's actual InitialContext application, but it's a possibility. Once you can safely cast to Context, you should be vendor-neutral (if not, demand your money back).
So that is exactly where I am stuck, trying to get the lookup to work and wondering if it should work without and xml file mapping the resource for my app.
What we ended up doing for standalone was to provide our own JNDI. If you look at the open source project JOTM, there are examples on how to use that with XBean (if integrating with Spring, as we did), you can easily set up a data source that runs standalone exactly as you get in the container. Another benefit is you get full JTA/JTS support and the ability to run XA transactions. (This might all be alphabet soup, but the app server gives it to you, and this is the way we ended up doing the same: JNDI + JTA + JTS + XA). It ends up the same application code uses a "vanilla" InitialContext and all we have to do is write one or two xml files (one for our app server, a couple for JOTM), and our actual code works the same.
I still think you have a shot at getting to the container's JNDI, just not using their full-blown app server JAR.
I think there must be a simple way to do this with an ejb-jar.xml, I am no expert in JNDI, I could be missing something simple, I will keep at it and post an answer here if I come up with it.
Thanks, jayIt is simple to code. Getting it to integrate with your app server, yes, that can be challenging. But it has nothing to do with EJB's. Write a simple test. Using nothing but DataSource and InitialContext. Let us know where you get stuck.

Security Principal propagation from Web Server to App Server

How would I propagate a customer Principal from weblogic Web Server
to a Weblogic App Server?
For e.g this is what I want to do.
1. User logs in via a login page with UserId and password.
2. After a user is authenticated successfully, I want to fetch
some user credentials like groups he belongs to, his status etc.
basically his profile info (stored in oracle db). I want to store
this as part of a security principal object. How do I let the weblogic
web server know about this principal?
3. I want the Weblogic Servlet container to recognize this principal
and whenever any servlet calls a ejb, the web server should send
this custom principal to the weblogic app server so that the ejb
container can identify it.
4. In the ejb, I should be able to do sessionContext.getPrincipal()
that will return my custom principal object, which would give the
ejb access to the credentials of the logged on user.
Has anyone done this? This is urgent. Can anyone pls shed some
light on this.

Hi,
Basically you need to install the loadbalancer plugin on the web server and then configure the loadbalancer.xml in the config folder. You need to turn the httpsrouting to true. Then all will work fine for HTTPS and HTTPS
for HTTPS on web server and HTTP on app server, you need to turn the httpsrouting to false.

Does moving SP code from DB to App Server help scale an application?

We have an application developed using Oracle 10g Forms / 10g DB? All our processing is done using SPs. So they all run in the DB server. Even our Inserts/updates/deletes to a table are handled by SPs.
The site with the maximum simultaneous users (i.e. concurrent users) is one with 100 concurrent users.
We have prospective customer whose requirement is 300 concurrent users. Our application won't be able to handle it since the DB server is a single processor server with limited memory.
One suggestion was move the SPs to the App Server by moving them to the Form. Since OAS has a PL engine they will run in the App Server and hence remove the workload of the DB.
I don't buy this. My point is, even if SPs are moved to the app. server still the SQLs will run in the DB server, right?
So what is the advantage?

christian, I just modified the original post thinking nobody will reply since it's very long. Thanks a lot for the reply. For others and myself also here is my original question.
I have a problem like this: Take this scenario. We have a TELCO app. It is an E-Business Web Application (i.e. Dynamic Web Site) developed using ASP.Net/C#. App. Server is IAS and DB is Oracle 10g. IAS and the DB reside in 2 servers. Both are single processor servers.
The maximum simultaneous user load is 500. i.e. 500 users can be working in the system at one time.
Now suppose 500 users login at the same time and perform 500 different operations (i.e. querying, inserts, updates, deletes). Now all 500 operations will go to the App Server. From there the C# code will perform everything using Oracle stored procedures (SP). I.e. we first make a connection to the DB, SP is invoked by passing parameters, it will perform the operation in the DB, send the output to the App. Server C# code and we will close the Oracle connection (in App Server. C# code).
Now, the 500 operations will obviously have to wait in a queue and the SQLs will be processed in the DB server.
Now, question is how does CONNECTION POOLING help in this situation?
I have been told that the above method of using DB SP to perform processing will make the whole system very slow since all the load of the processing has to borne by the DB Server and since DB Operations involve disk I/O it will be very slow. They say you cannot SCALE the application with this DB Processing mode and you have to move to App. Server processing mode in order to scale your application. I.e. If the number of users increases to 1000 our application won’t be able to handle it and will get very slow.
What they suggest is to move all the processing to the App. Server (i.e. App. Svr. Memory). They also say that CONNECTION POOLING can help even further to improve the performance.
I have some issues with this. First of all to get all the data to the App server memory for each user process from the DB will not only require disk I/O, it will also involve a network trip. That will obviously take time. Again the DB requests to fetch the data will have to wait in the DB queue. Then we do the processing in the App. Server memory and then we have to again write to the DB server which again will require a network trip and disk I/O. According to my thinking won’t this take MORE TIME than doing it in the DB server??
Also how can CONNECTION POOLING help. In C# we OPEN a connection ONLY just before run the SP or get the data and we close the connection just after the operation is over.
I don’t’ see how CONNECTION POOLING can improve anything?
I also don’t see how moving data into the App. Server from the DB Server can improve the performance. I think that will only decrease performance.
Am I right or have I missed something?

Connecting imqadmin tool to Sun App Server 8

I have been using the Standalone platform edition of MessageQueue on solaris with no problems (V3.5 SP2). I am currently looking up my ConnectionFactory on an LDAP server. This is working fine.
However, I am also trying to connect the imqadmin tool to the JMS Provider bundled with Sun Application Server 8. This must be possible, since the imqadmin tool comes with the install.
What should be the correct settings used for creating the ObjectStore on the imqadmin tool?
Is this even possible?
I also noticed that it was not possible to create generic ConnectionFactory objects in the admin pages of the Sun Application Server 8 JMS Section - I was only able to create a specific QueueConnectionFactory or TopicConnectionFactory object.
Using the imqadmin tool for the standalone platform edition of JMS Server, you can create ConnectionFactory objects no problem.
Why the difference - are they compliant to the same JMS Spec?

I'll answer the second question first:
Why the difference - are they compliant to the same JMS Spec?Mostly. The E2EE spec adds additional behaviors and
restrictions on top of jms (causing some minor behavior
differences) for example
1. look up of jndi resources should all come from the
same context
2. non-rich clients (servlets, mdbs, etc) can not create
more than one session on a connection
3. MDB's can not create JMS transacted sessions
4. EJB's and servlets can not create message listeners
As far as using imqadmin to manage objects ...
In general, you should use the app server tools for creating the connection factory objects used by MDBs and most other clients.
You can continue to use imqadmin to make changes to the
broker (e.g. create physical destinations, etc)
If you want an rich "appClient" to access a client, you should
be able to create your own connection factory (using imqadmin) but export it to the application as a custom resource, see:
http://docs.sun.com/source/817-6088/jndi.html

Initial workflow runs on WFE, then APP server, loses dependency?

I'm still having issues with a WFE deployment to a farm with a WFE, an APP, and a SQL server. I'm trying to get my head around it. Workflow timer jobs run on the APP server, in accordance with Microsoft recommendations.
User adds a list item
When he / she submits their request, an Update workflow is kicked off -
this part of the workflow I believe is still running on WFE because I see my printed messages in the ULS logs on the WFE
If the request to update a list item is approved, the workflow kicks off a timer job.
The SharePoint timer service then picks up the job on the APP server - I know this because I see my printed messages on the APP server instead of WFE.
Submitted request passed on to a database on a different server.
Getting the right solution has been challenging as I've been struggling to ask the right questions. I've confirmed that the SharePoint 2010 Timer Job is started on both servers with same account. I'm thinking that the wsp deploys something to the WFE,
but not to the APP server. For #5 to happen, that something needs to live on the WFE (unless I want to change the service configuration and add Workflow Timer Jobs on both servers.)
I'm thinking that the solution should be to manually add whatever those files are deployed via the wsp to the APP server as well.
Scott

Best practice states that Foundation Web runs on every server in the farm, as solutions must be built around the exception of not running Foundation Web on particular servers. You're encountering that issue, the solution wasn't built to accommodate for
this type of architecture. There is little reason to not run Foundation Web on all servers, including performance.
