Change Management without Oracle Change Management Pack

Hello,
is there a possibility to define a change management process without having access to the enterprise manager?
The administration of the databases in our company is done by an outsourcing partner. So the developers can't access the enterprise manager.
siret

You are going to have to provide a lot more information for anyone to help you from the basic ... like in what version ... to the specific ... what functionality do you want?
In general none of the "packs" run any code not in the database in the form of built-in packages. For example much of the functionality of OEM Grid is implenented in DBMS_ADVISOR, DBMS_MONITOR, DBMS_SERVER_ALERT, etc.
But without specific questions no specific answer is possible.
You can find demos of the above referenced packages here:

Difference: Oracle Access Manager and Oracle Access Management

Dear,
What is the difference between Oracle Access Manager and Oracle Access Management, both 11g
thanks

Oracle Access Manager is the foundation(main product), of the new Oracle Access Management platform. Access Manager provides the core functionality of Web Single Sign On(SSO), authentication, authorization, centralized policy administration and agent management, real-time session management and auditing. Built as a 100% Java solution, Access Manager is extremely scalable to handle Internet scale deployments and works with existing heterogeneous environments in the enterprise with agents certified on hundreds of web servers and application servers. Access Manager provides rich functionality, extreme scalability and high availability thereby increasing security, improving user experience and productivity and enhancing compliance while reducing total cost of ownership.
Oracle Access management solution provides: Comprehensive Web Access Management, Web Single Sign-On, Identity Propagation, and Federation;Mobile and Social Sign-On;Real-time External Authorization;daptive Access and Fraud Detection
So basically one is a product and the other one is an entire solution.
I hope this helps,
Thiago Leoncio.

Restrict creation of Change Document without a change request

Hello Experts,
Is there a way within Charm to restrict the creation of a change document through crmd_order or a business transaction and instead force the creation of all change documents to start from a change request? Some users are bypassing the approval process through sdcr and are using the push button in crmd_order to create a normal correction without having the change approved.
Please advise on a possible solution to fixing this issue.
Thanks
Mike

Hi Raquel,
Thanks for the quick reply. The problem is that the individuals that have access to create an SDMJ or SDHF are the ones creating them directly from crmd_order instead of through the sdcr approval process. From what you are saying I guess there is no way to force them to go through sdcr instead of creating an sdmj directly from crmd_order if they already have access to create a change document?
Thanks
Mike

Session management in Oracle access manager

Hello,
Two applications are protected by OAM by global session timeout and idle timeout. User is logged into both applications after logging in through OAM SSO login page. Global logout is enabled. When user clicks on global logout link, user will be logged out of that application. But, when he tries accesses the other application he will be prompted for re-login. Is there a way around so that OAM does not throw a login page again for second app? We would like OAM to delete only first application's session. Please provide your thoughts. Thanks. SJ

Hi , Which version of OAM you are using . If it is 11G R1, we have a common global session timeout for all WebSSO enabled applications.
I hope we don't have any way to implement application specific session timeouts in OAM 11G R1. You can just clear you application specific sessions during the logout event (don't invoke/call OAM logout page) , In this way the SSO session reamins active and you access any other protected app without re-authentication.
Also the other option :- In your logout page try to keep two options 1. To clear both SSO & Application session 2. To clear application specific session alone . This gives the options to end users and navigate between diffrent applications.I hope this helps.

Lightroom 5 Export TIFF tonal change, even without making changes in Photoshop

Hi there,
I seem to experience a mysterious issue when Lightroom creates an Edit Tiff for external editing. I have this issue only with one picture it seems. I tried to replicate it with another, but it doessn't happen.
So here's what happens. I already had an Edit.tif of a DNG. Then I noticed I wanted to do some final retouching in Photoshop with the healing brush, but I also did some minor adjustments in Lightroom on the Edit.tiff, so I decided to create an Edit-Edit.tif.
Then when I went back to Lightroom, I noticed the Edit-Edit.tif was all of a sudden lighter in the shadows than my Edit.tif.
I tried some trial and error investigation myself, to replicate the issue. I couldn't replicate it with other pictures. But when I tried to do the same thing again, except this time no Photoshop editing to the Edit-Edit.tif (so Photoshop didn't ask me to save), same thing happened. So at least I found out it doesn't have anything to do with Photoshop.
Anyone any idea what this could be? I would greatly appreciate any help! Thanks in advance!
Kind regards,
Dennis

Problem is solved. It turns out, it probably has to do with the interpolation mechanism of Lightroom displaying dark area's with color noise a litte different.
Thanks anyway for reading!

Fresh install of Oracle VM Manager Template into Oracle VM Server

Hi,
I am trying to install the Oracle VM Manager template and then
create an Oracle VM Manager client.
I have already done a 'fresh install' of Oracle VM Server.
I do not have another machine available to use to contain the
'Oracle VM Manager', therefore, I am attempting to install the
Oracle VM Manager template directly into an Oracle VM Manager Server and
run the client.
I am following the instructions of the Oracle VM Server Users Guide
in section 4.3.
When I extract the zip file contents into the
/OVS/seed_pool directory, I get the following files.
Deploy_Manager_Template.sh
OVM_EL5U3_X86_OVM_MANAGER_PVM.tgz
So far, so good.
Next, I used 'tar' to help me extract the directories of the .tgz file.
So far, so good.
Next, as instructed, I used 'python' and 'print randomMAC()' to create a new MAC address.
Inside the /OVS/seed_pool/OVM_EL5U3_X86_OVM_MANAGER_PVM/vm.cfg file
I modified the vif MAC address. I replaced the
xx:xx:xx with the 'last three' that were generated by the python randomMAC
function from above.
vif = [ 'mac=00:16:3E:<my generated numbers>', ]
So far, so good?
In the Oracle VM Server Users Guide in section 4.3.,
The next step, expains that I should run
xm create mv.cfg
I did this. When I ran this I received back the error.
Using config file "./vm.cfg"
Error disk is not accessible.
When I peek inside my vm.cfg file.
I see file references starting with the following
file:/OVS/running_pool/ ...
Of, course my running_pool directory is empty.
(Again, this is a fresh install of Oracle VM Server).
My first question is the following.
Sometime in this process was I supposed to run
the the following executable?
./Deploy_Manager_Template.sh
If so, should I have done this early?
Was the modification of the vif (of adding the MAC address
into the vm.cfg file, something I 'should have not done'
or 'something that could be ignored' because the
'./Deploy_Manager_Template.sh' would have done this for me?
My second question is the following.
Would the following process be 'more correct?'
..1 Not modify the vm.cfg' file.
..2 run ./Deploy_Manager_Template.sh.
..3 In the /OVS/running_pool/ directory find my
vm.cfg file of interest, then modify the vif with a new MAC address.
..4 In /OVS/running_pool/Change my current location to my directory of interest
run xm create vm.cfg (to run my Oracle VM Manager)?
Any help or ideas whould be appreciated.
Thank you very much,
AIM

Hi,
This is the README file for Oracle VM Manager 2.2.0
Readme for Media Pack B57738-01
Print: Access key=P Close: Access key=C
Oracle VM Templates for Oracle VM Manager 2.2.0 Media Pack v1 for x86 (32 bit)
=====================================================================
Template Version 2.3
Oracle VM Manager Version 2.2.0
This document contains:
1. Prerequisites for Oracle VM Manager virtual machine (VM) deployment
2. Oracle VM Manager Template description
3. Creating an Oracle VM Manager Virtual Machine from
Oracle VM Manager Template
4. Deployment Interview
5. Known Issues
For more information on Oracle VM Manager, please refer to
the "Oracle VM Manager Installation Guide" and the "Oracle VM Manager
User's Guide" available at:
http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E15458_01/index.htm
1. Prerequisites
================
- A new install of Oracle VM Server 2.2 that has NOT been managed by another
Oracle VM Manager. Manager Template 2.2 is intended to be installed on Oracle
VM 2.2 server. If you have a new Oracle VM 2.1.5 server and want to deploy
Oracle VM Manager template, please use the Oracle VM 2.1.5 Manager template.
Note: root access to the server's dom0 is required.
- It's highly recommended that you upgrade the default agent (ovs-agent-2.3-19)
to ovs-agent-2.3-27 or later. You can get the latest Oracle VM 2.2 packages
from Oracle's Unbreakable Linux Network (http://linux.oracle.com).
Note: Alternate location to get Oracle VM agent 2.3-27 is
http://oss.oracle.com/oraclevm/server/2.2/RPMS/ovs-agent-2.3-27.noarch.rpm
- A working directory of the Oracle VM Server 2.2 has at least 4GB free space
for downloading and installing the template. The working directory can be any
directory on the Oracle VM server except /OVS/running_pool.
Note: The /root partition of the default Oracle VM server install may not have
enough space to temporarily host the template installation. Please use other
directory that has sufficient free space.
- At least 15GB of free space in the cluster root storage repository. For storage
and repository configuration, please refer to Oracle VM 2.2 Server User Guide:
http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E15458_01/doc.22/e15444/storage.htm
and
http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E15458_01/doc.22/e15444/repository.htm
- At least 2GB of free memory on the Oracle VM Server
- A static IP address for the Oracle VM Manager
- If enabling HA (high availability) for the Oracle VM Manager,
mount a clustered OCFS2 or NFS filesystem on /OVS. If ext3 or a
local OCFS2 filesystem is used, enabling HA will cause the high availability
prerequisite checking to fail. The Oracle VM Manager configuration
process will exit without completing the configuration.
- The Oracle VM Manager will register the first VM that it detects.
To have Oracle VM Manager be the first VM registered,
make sure there are no virtual machine images besides the Oracle VM Manager
virtual machine in the /OVS/running_pool directory on the Oracle VM Server.
- A desktop or other system with a VNC Viewer installed
The steps below assume that the Oracle VM Server used is not currently
or was not previously managed by another Oracle VM Manager. If this is not
the case, the instructions below will ask user clean up Oracle VM Agent DB
before running the Oracle VM Manager.
2. Oracle VM Manager Template Description
=========================================
The Oracle VM Manager Template is distributed as one archive file which
includes:
File Version
OVM_EL5U3_X86_OVM_MANAGER_PVM.tgz 2.3
Deploy_Manager_Template.sh 2.3
The OVM_EL5U3_X86_OVM_MANAGER_PVM.tgz archive contains two disk images,
a VM configuration file and a readme file:
- Oracle Enterprise Linux 5.3 x86 system disk image
- Oracle VM Manager 2.2 disk image
- vm.cfg
- README
The system image is a JeOS (Just enough OS) installation of Oracle
Enterprise Linux 5.3. It is a smaller footprint install that contains
the only packages needed by Oracle VM Manager.
Oracle VM Manager is configured to use Oracle Database 10g
Express Edition (included).
Deploy_Manager_Template.sh is used to check the prerequisite and
create virtual machine.
During the first boot of the Oracle VM Manager virtual machine,
the Oracle VM Manager configuration process will create server pool
and import the Oracle VM Manager virtual machine.
Two OS user accounts are created by default:
user: root password: ovsroot
user: oracle password: oracle
The user 'oracle' belongs to the 'oinstall' and 'dba' groups.
The default vnc console password is 'oracle'
3. Creating the Oracle VM Manager virtual machine
=================================================
1) Download the Oracle VM Manager Template (V19215-01.zip)
from http://edelivery.oracle.com/oraclevm
2) Login to the Oracle VM Server's dom0 as 'root'
Copy V19215-01.zip to your working directory with at least 4GB free space.
You can choose any directory on OVM Server except /OVS/running_pool.
This zip file contains the archive file OVM_EL5U3_X86_OVM_MANAGER_PVM.tgz
and a deploy script Deploy_Manager_Template.sh
3) As root, run
# unzip V19215-01.zip
4) As 'root', run the deployment script:
# chmod 755 Deploy_Manager_Template.sh
# ./Deploy_Manager_Template.sh
The deployment script Deploy_Manager_Template.sh will complete the following
tasks:
a) prerequisite checking
b) uncompress OVM_EL5U3_X86_OVM_MANAGER_PVM.tgz file to directory
/OVS/running_pool. This directory will contain the files following files:
/OVS/running_pool/OVM_EL5U3_X86_OVM_MANAGER_PVM
|- System.img (OS image file)
|- Manager.img (Manager image file)
|- vm.cfg (VM configuration file)
|- README (Readme file)
c) generate and assign new MAC address to the virtual machine
d) interview the user for VM and VM Manager configuration parameters
(next section 'Deployment interview' provides the list of questions)
e) create and boot the virtual machine from the Oracle VM Server
command line
f) display the access information for Oracle VM Manager and Oracle VM
Manager VM
4. Deployment Interview
=======================
The deployment script will prompt a user to enter
a) Agent password
The agent password is required for the prerequisites check.
b) Storage configuration
Storage Source: NFS address, OCFS2 partition path
The script will automatically detect your cluster root storage repository
if you have configured it. Or it prompts users to input their storage source
and the script tries to set it up as cluster root.
NOTE: how to manually create your own storage repository in OracleVM server 2.2.x
1) Register your storage source. Example:
/opt/ovs-agent-2.3/utils/repos.py -n myhost:/mynfslocation
/opt/ovs-agent-2.3/utils/repos.py -n /dev/sdb3
Note that the storage source should have at least 15GB free space.
If the storage source is successfully registered, note down the uuid genereated
by the command above, such as:
51d4c69b-e439-41ac-8b31-3cc485c993b0 => /dev/sdb3
2) Mount your storage repository.
If the agent version is 2.3-27 or higher, execute:
/opt/ovs-agent-2.3/utils/repos.py -i
otherwise, complete the following commands:
[1] mkdir -p /var/ovs/mount/$(echo <uuid> | sed s/-//g | tr '[:lower:]' \
'[:upper:]')"
where '<uuid>' is the uuid noted down in step 2)
[2] mount your storage source to the directory made in step [1].
3) If /OVS exists, delete or move /OVS
mv /OVS "/OVS.$(date '+%Y%m%d-%H%M%S').orig"
create a symbolic link from storage repository to /OVS
ln -nsf /var/ovs/mount/<UUID>/ /OVS
c) Network configuration
Static IP address
Netmask
Default Gateway IP address
DNS Server IP address
Hostname
d) Password for database accounts:
'SYS' and 'SYSTEM' (the same password the same password is used)
'OVS'
'oc4jadmin'
'admin'
e) Web Service configuration (supported in template in version 1.2)
Web Service password (at least 6 characters)
Enable HTTPS or not
f) SMTP server (outgoing mail server SMTP hostname)
E-mail Address for account 'admin'
g) Data for the manager services configuration:
Oracle VM Server Pool Name
Oracle VM Server login user name
Oracle VM Server login password
Note that Oracle VM Manager is critical for managing Oracle VM Server Pools.
Do not pause, suspend or shutdown this virtual machine! Configuring
HA is recommended for this virtual machine so that Oracle VM will
automatically restart the Oracle VM Manager virtual machine if there
is a server crash.
5. Known Issues
===============
1) You may see messages on a virtual machine's console similar to these
when the virtual machine is booting up:
Fatal: No PCI config space access function found
rtc: IRQ 8 is not free.
i8042.c: No controller found.
These messages can be ignored.
2) Mail server check fails.
Bug #7140 in bugzilla.oracle.com
Oracle VM Manager installer only checks the default SMTP port 25 for the
mail server. If the SMTP port is not 25, the check fails, and you will
see the following message:
Mail server '<mail server hostname>' check failed, want to re-enter it(Y|n)?
You can enter 'n' to skip the mail server checking. You will also see the
send mail checking fails with following message:
Failed to send mail to '<Admin e-mail address>'
want to re-enter the e-mail address(Y|n)?
You can enter 'n' to skip the send mail checking.
3) OEL VM console may display error messages similar to those below:

This will not cause any problems.
4) If you accidentally power off Oracle VM Manager virtual machine through
Oracle Manager UI, and restart the virtual machine from OVM server command
line, although Oracle VM Manager virtual machine is running normally,
the virtual machine status in Manager UI will stay in 'Shutting Down'.
This is expected, as the virtual machine status sync will only happen when
the virtual machine status is "Error" or "Powered Off".
To re-sync the virtual machine status, please complete the following steps:
1. Log on the Manager UI;
2. Navigate to the 'Virtual Machines' tab;
3. Select Oracle VM Manager virtual machine, "OVM_EL5U3_X86_OVM_MANAGER_PVM";
4. Choose 'Reset' from 'More Actions' dropdown list;
5. Click 'Go' button, the status will become "Running" after a while.
5) (Bug 9191053) For OVS agent version 2.3-19, the following High
Availability scenario will not work.
"If a Virtual Machine Server fails, all running virtual machines are
restarted automatically on another available Virtual Machine Server."
For OVS agent 2.3-19, Oracle VM Manager virtual machine will not be
automatically restarted on any other available Virtual Machine Server,
but on the original Virtual Machine Server when it becomes available again.
To fix the issue, please upgrade OVS agent to 2.3-27 or the latest version.

Competency Weight age- Oracle Performance Management

Dear All,
We are in the process of implementing Oracle Performance Management (12.1.3 Ver), these are following scenario we need to address. Kindly post your advice .
1.     We have 4 Objective ( Objective-1, Objective-2, Objective-3 and Non-Bonus able Objective) for all the employees with weigh age. We need to restrict the weight age and the sum of all the Objective weight age should not exceed 35% . (EX: Obj 1+ Obj 2 + Obj 3+ Non-Bonus able = 35%). How to achieve this?
2.     We have 4 Mandatory competency and for which we need to provided weight age for each competency ( Ex: Communication Skill -20% weight age & Team work – 30%) How to achieve this?
3.     Our final rating works as, Objective Rating + Competency Rating ( Final Score = Objective Rating + Competency Rating). How to achieve this?
4.     We have another requirement like we need to Tag Absenteeism Rating ( Please see the below rating scale) along with the Final Appraisal rating . I am furnishing the Rating details
Excel----------Never Absent and always punctual.
Achieved----Never absent but late in or early out with prior permission.
Partial ------ Deduction of 5%     Few Absent or late in or early out without prior permission or advance intimation.
Not Achieved ----- Deduction of 10%     Multiple Absent or late in or early out with no permission at all.
Please let me know if you need more information
Thanks and Regards

Que1. The weight of all objective should be 100 but in my case it is allowing any value. What I need to do to restrict it?
ANS : This is a seeded one. If you want to restrict it you have to customize the page.
Que2. Can we do objective setting and Appraisal process simultaneously? That would be allocate objective and rating in parallel?
ANS : There is a checkbox "Allow Objective Setting outside of the period" (something like that).
Que4. What is difference between Talent management, Performance management and Workforce performance Management?
ANS: AFAIK, Oracle Talent Management and Oracle Performance Management are same. Prior to Oracle Performance Management, the module name was Oracle Talent Management.
Que5. When I include the Appraisal in the PMP and select the Appraisal template (that just has final rating) and click on the "Go to Task" against "Manage appraisals" (to initiate it) I do not see anything. Do we/manager need to create plan every time using the link Appraisal.
ANS : You can schedule the concurrent program, "Mass Appraisal Creation".
Hope it helps!.

Oracle Performance Management doubts

Hi All,
I have some questions related to Oracle performance management and hope they will get answered over here:-
Que1. The weight of all objective should be 100 but in my case it is allowing any value. What I need to do to restrict it?
Que2. Can we do objective setting and Appraisal process simultaneously? That would be allocate objective and rating in parallel?
Que3. When and how the rating provided by manager would reflect in the Performance (People --> Assignment --> other --> Performance) widow and what would be the effective date. I have completed all setup and process but the final rating is still not available.
Que4. What is difference between Talent management, Performance management and Workforce performance Management?
Que5. When I include the Appraisal in the PMP and select the Appraisal template (that just has final rating) and click on the "Go to Task" against "Manage appraisals" (to initiate it) I do not see anything. Do we/manager need to create plan every time using the link Appraisal.
Sorry for asking too many questions.
Thanks,
Avinash

Physical inventory with and without handling unit managment

Hello all,
I would like to know what is the difference between physical inventory with and without handling unit management.
Pl. advise.
Thanks,
Maxx

Assuming you are referring to WM inventory, it is very similar. Inventory is conducted at the SU level in WM if you are HU managed. One of the most widely known issues is the lack of ability to post differences of nested HUs at the WM level. If you are not using nested HUs, the process is the same as storage unit management without handling unit management.
