Configuration Tasks in a Production Environment

Do I have to configure SSL for Oracle Apps ? Use Oracle Wallet Manager to do so?
Also do we have to generate Server ids for security purpose in a production environment ?
These steps are stated as an initial task after installing Oracle Apps ?
Is there a document for Post Install Tasks after installation of EBS 12 ?
Thanks
RK

Refer to the following note to configure SSL in R12.
Note: 376700.1 - Enabling SSL in Release 12
https://metalink.oracle.com/metalink/plsql/ml2_documents.showDocument?p_database_id=NOT&p_id=376700.1
Is there a document for Post Install Tasks after installation of EBS 12 ?Refer to the installation manual and the release note Metalink note. You can also apply all recommended patches (Check Patches & Updates tab in Metalink for more details).

Configuring SharePoint Apps in Production Environment

SharePoint 2013 Environment. We are trying to configure SharePoint APPS in production environment. It is a medium server farm with two W.F.E's load balanced.
We have the following two DNS entires with two different wildcards pointing to the SharePoint FQDN.
contoso.com
contosoapps.com
Since we are planning to use https, In the DNS we have assigned a random ip address to just the apps domain. Created a new web application with no host header and assigned this IPAddress to this web application by changing the binding (for both http and
https) on both the servers.
When I click on the app, the redirect does not work and displays page not found error. Any help?

You said you created a new web app with no host header. Did you also create a root level site collection in the web app? You don't actually use the site collection but it needs to be there. Also make sure that https is the default zone
on that web app. Apps normally only use the default zone for redirecting to the address and if you are using https it won't work unless that is the default zone.

Automatic Deploying of Portal Configuration from Staging to Production Environment

Hello,
I'm anlyzing the opportunituy to write an automatic procedure that synchronize
our WebLogic Portal production environment with the staging one. These two environments
are physically separated.
I have found the BEA Propagation Tool. However it seems that is not possible to
define a procedure that is really totally automatic.
Firts of all, it is necessary to hava an manual operator that selects the objects
that have to be propagated and after starts the propagation process.
Besides it is necessary to have database connections beetween the progation tool
and both the environments.
What I'm looking for is a solution that
1. analyze the staging environment
2. export some files that contain both code, configuration and data (code, LDAP
and DB data)
3. import these files into the second enviroment
has someone deal with this problem?
Thans in advance
Ciao

Manish,
to answer your questions -
1. You can find the exact date and time for these refreshes/maintenance schedule on your production pod. Just go to 'Training & Support' in your production. There will be a calendar in which you can see the maintenance schedule. The details are quite accurate. to be sure of the time I would suggest you get in touch with the Service/Support rep at Oracle.
2 & 3) Oracle CRM On Demand provides a Migration Tool that can be used to migrate configuration changes from on POD to another. This can be between Staging --> Production and vice versa. Although, I would recommend that you go through the migration tool bookshelf and understand in detail the use of this tool. There are limited configurations that can be migrated. So it would be wise to create a plan based on what changes you are looking to migrate.
Note: Reports are copied on the Staging after the refresh only from Prod to Staging. This does not happen from Staging to Production. Reports will have to be created in Production and will be copied on Staging on a Quarterly basis (Check your refresh schedule)
4) You can use the migration tool to migrate configuration changes from a live environment into another instance.
The migration tool can be downloaded from:
Admin --> Import and Export Tools -->Oracle Migration Tool On Demand
You can download the Migration Tool Bookshelf here:

Adf security misbehaving in production environment

Hi all,
I am using jdev 11.1.2.2 and weblogic 10.3.6
I have implemented adf security from based authentication in my web application and i have used sql authenticator for authentication.
In my integrated WLS everything works fine . but in the production WLS what is happening is when the user access a Protected Page without login it navigates to the protected page instead of navigating him to the login page. In the integrated WLS this happens normally .
Has anyone faced this issue before ? What can be wrong ?
I have added my web.xml
<?xml version = '1.0' encoding = 'windows-1252'?>

Hi Rakesh,
Make sure you have migrated the policy store to the production server. When Weblogic Server is running in production mode, automatic credential overwrite is not allowed. From the developer's guide:
When the target server is configured for production mode, you typically handle the migration task outside of JDeveloper using tools like Oracle Enterprise Manager. For details about using tools outside of JDeveloper to migrate the policy store to the domain-level in a production environment, see the Oracle Containers for J2EE Security Guide. Note that Oracle WebLogic Server running in production mode does not support the overwriting of system credentials under any circumstances.http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E26098_01/web.1112/e16182/adding_security.htm#CDDGFDFH

Best practice for a deplomyent (EAR containing WAR/EJB) in a productive environment

Hi there,
I'm looking for some hints regarding to the best practice deployment in a productive
environment (currently we are not using a WLS-cluster);
We are using ANT for buildung, packaging and (dynamic) deployment (via weblogic.Deployer)
on the development environment and this works fine (in the meantime);
For my point of view, I would like to prefere this kind of Deploment not only
for the development, also for the productive system.
But I found some hints in some books, and this guys prefere the static deployment
for the p-system.
My question now:
Could anybody provide me with some links to some whitepapers regarding best practice
for a deployment into a p-system ??
What is your experiance with the new two-phase-deploment coming up with WLS 7.0
Is it really a good idea to use the static deployment (what is the advantage of
this kind of deployment ???
THX in advanced
-Martin

Hi Siva,
What best practise are you looking for ? If you can be specific on your question we could provide appropriate response.
From my basis experience some of the best practices.
1) Productive landscape should have high availability to business. For this you may setup DR or HA or both.
2) It should have backup configured for which restore has been already tested
3) It should have all the monitoring setup viz application, OS and DB
4) Productive client should not be modifiable
5) Users in Production landscape should have appropriate authorization based on SOD. There should not be any SOD conflicts
6) Transport to Production should be highly controlled. Any transport to Production should be moved only with appropriate Change Board approvals.
7) Relevant Database and OS security parameters should be tested before golive and enabled
8) Pre-Golive , Post Golive should have been performed on Production system
9) EWA should be configured atleast for Production system
10) Production system availability using DR should have been tested
Hope this helps.

Best Practice for Production environment

Hello everyone,
can someone share the best practice for a production environment? or is there a SAP standard best practice to follow in a Production landscape?
i understand there are Best practices available for Implementation , Migration and upgrade. But, i was unable to find one for productive landscape
thanks.

Weblogic 8.1 Server log size increase in Production environment

Hi,
Issue:: One of the log file is increasing in size and exceeding beyond the size mentioned in the configuration file resulting in application outage.
Issue description:
We are having problems with the log size in the Weblogic 8.1 server. The fileminsize has been mentioned in the config.xml.
New log files like MYsvr.log00001,MYsvr.log00002, MYsvr.log00003, MYsvr.log00004 etc are also being generated appropriately when the max file size has been reached. But simultaneously, one of the files is growing in size, exceeding the limit mentioned in the configuration file. Eg.. the MYsvr.log00001 file is 800MB in size while the other files(MYsvr.log00002, MYsvr.log00003 etc are 10MB in size)
This increase in size of the log has been resulting in an application outage.
More Details:
1. Server: BEA Weblogic 8.1 server
2. Log size is fine in other environements. This is a problem only in the production environment.
3. The entry in the config.xml is as follows:
<Server ListenPort="6313" Name="MYsvr" NativeIOEnabled="true" TransactionLogFilePrefix="./">
<ServerStart Name="MYsvr"/>
<Log FileMinSize="10000" FileName="MYsvr.log" Name="MYsvr"
NumberOfFilesLimited="true" RotationType="bySize"/>
<SSL Name="MYsvr"/>
<ServerDebug Name="MYsvr"/>
<WebServer Name="MYsvr"/>
<ExecuteQueue Name="default" ThreadCount="15"/>
<KernelDebug Name="MYsvr"/>
</Server>
Could you please help with this issue ?
Thank you.

Can someone please provide a solution for the issue

MSDN and Production Environment (again)

I started this on another forum before I found this one, but this seems a more suitable place.
The definition of "production environment" seems rather odd. In some responses on this forum it appears to refer to "soft" systems whereas the latest MSDN licence refers to environment and physical kit.
Below is a conversation I had over email with someone from MSDN and I find the whole thing utterly bizarre. I cannot for the life of me see how this helps anyone apart from MS being able to charge for non-production software. It renders having a powerful desktop
for local lab experimentation pointless as you're not allowed to install anything and effectively doubles the hardware cost to small companies if they have to buy a separate server for any testing work (yes, best practice and all that, but budgets...) or pay
out for a Windows Datacenter licence.
Question:
“If a physical machine running one or more virtual machines is used entirely for development and test, then the operating system used on the physical host system can be MSDN software. However, if the physical machine or any of the VMs hosted on that physical
system are used for other purposes, then both the operating system within the VM and the operating system for the physical host must be licensed separately.”
Is this actually saying that if I have a physical server licenced with a purchased (not MSDN) Server 2012 R2, running Hyper-V with, say, a production file server VM on it, that ALL Windows VMs on that machine must have purchased licences even if they
are only for development & testing purposes?
Is this saying that all production and development Windows VMs must be only completely separate hardware, cluster, SAN, etc otherwise you must pay for full licences for the VMs?
Or does it just mean that the bare metal licence (plus any additional ones required for running further production VMs) must be purchased if the VMs are a mix of production and development?
Answer:
We kindly inform that any products licensed under the developer tools model (e.g. SQL/BizTalk developer and/or MSDN) must be installed on their own separate physical hardware.
You are not allowed to run test or development products on a server where production workloads are running at the same time. Kindly run your developer software on a device/host that is dedicated to testing and development.
Explanation:
The Product Use Rights (PUR) say that the developer software is not licensed for use in a production environment. Even if the PUR does not have a separate definition of production environment, a production environment is a set of resources for network, physically
dedicated hardware and software to provide "live" service. If the intent was to say that the same physical server could be used for both development and production - it would say "not licensed for use in a production OSE," instead
it says environment.
See current PUR, page 51:
Developer Tools (User License)
You have the rights below for each license you acquire.
# You must assign each license to a single user.
# Each Licensed User may run an unlimited number of copies of the Developer Tools software and any prior version on any device.
# The Licensed User may use the software for evaluation and to design, develop, test, and demonstrate your programs. These rights include the use of the software to simulate an end user environment to diagnose issues related to your programs.
# The software is not licensed for use in a production environment. # Additional rights provided in license terms included with the software are additive to these product use rights, provided that there is no conflict
with these product use rights, except for superseding use terms outlined below.
Question:
Classifying an entire physical infrastructure as "production" in these days of virtualisation and shared storage really does not make any sense at all. Not using the software for production purposes makes perfect sense, but not being able to locate
it alongside production OS installs is mad. Does this only apply to the server running the VM (CPU and RAM)? If the VHDX is hosted on shared SAN storage does the SAN have to be dedicated to non-production storage?
Answer:
We kindly inform that after double-checking the case we would like to confirm the development software cannot be run on the same hardware with production software.
We have also received a feedback from the responsible team regarding your request about a dedicated SAN (Storage Area Network) for MSDN software.
They have confirmed that the SAN has to be dedicated to the development and testing environment if it is used to run the software acquired through MSDN.
Question:
OK, so if I have my desktop (which is a production environment as I use it for email and other day to day office tasks), can I turn on Hyper-V and install an MSDN Windows Server 2012 instance for development purposes?
Answer:
We kindly inform it is not allowed to install and run software from MSDN subscriptions in production environments. Please do not install MSDN software on a desktop in a production environment:
"[.] The customer will need to run the developer software on a device/host that is dedicated to testing and development.

Hi Mike,
It sucks that MSDN software can't be run in a production environment, that means you have to have two entirely separate hardware environments, which are costly, and it seems unnecessary.
That's essentially it. I'm not saying for one second that it should be used for production purposes, just that it's physical location shouldn't be relevant. Also, the word "environment" is a very bad choice in the documentation simply because it's very open
to interpretation.
A production environment is defined as an environment that is accessed by end users of an application (such as an Internet Web site) and that is used for more than
Acceptance Testing of that application
or Feedback. Some scenarios that constitute production
environments include:
Environments that connect to a production database.
Environments that support disaster-recovery or backup for a production environment.
Environments that are used for production at least some of the time, such a server that is rotated into production during peak periods of activity.
So I dont think (here's that inconclusive language) but am not sure that your desktop machines count as production environments, based on that, unless end users are connecting to them. (I dearly hope they are not!)
My reading is based on the "Other Guidance" section:
"If a physical machine running one or more virtual machines is used entirely for development and test, then the operating system used on the physical host system can be MSDN software. However, if the physical machine or any of the VMs
hosted on that physical system are used for other purposes, then both the operating system within the VM and the operating system for the physical host must be licensed separately."
<o:p>This is the crux of the matter and the interpretation of "licensed separately". A (to my mind) sensible reading of that would be "if you're running any production purpose VMs on a server then the physical host OS must be a full licence
[presuming it's Server 2012 and not, say, VMWare or Hyper-V 2012] as must all production purpose VMs on that server". This has been getting interpreted by others (I'm not the first) and backed up by MS as meaning that if you want to run any dev/test VMs on
a server that also runs production VMs then you can't use MSDN for those dev/test VMs.</o:p>
Also, there is a section
here, on the MSDN Licensing help page that says (with my added emphasis):
Many
MSDN subscribers use a computer for mixed use—both design, development, testing, and demonstration of your programs (the use allowed under the MSDN subscription license) and some other use. Using the software in any other way, such as for doing email,
playing games, or editing a document is another use and is not covered by the MSDN subscription license.
When this happens, the underlying operating system must also be licensed normally by purchasing a regular copy of Windows such as the one that came with a new OEM PC.
Now to me, it seems this might be saying that the underlying operating system on a work
machine cannot be licensed using MSDN if that work machine is going to be doing non-msdn things in addition to MSDN things. It doesn't say "This can't happen" it just says "When this happens, the underlying
OS must be licensed normally..."
So, based on what I'm reading it seems that this quote from you might not be true:
"We can't install a local MSDN instance of Server 2012 or 8.1 for dev and test under Hyper-V on desktops
because desktops used for email, writing documents, etc are production. "
I wouldn't have expected this to be true either, but this is the response I was given. It may well be
that my question was misunderstood. I hope this is the case otherwise one of the big reasons for turning on Hyper-V on expensive, powerful desktops enabling the running of personal test environments goes out the window!
Thanks for your time on this.

How to check transport in Production environment

Hi,
I did some standard configuration as OBYA (Intercompany automatic Posting clearing account) in development Box and get it transported to Production.
I have to verify that the configuration I have done has been transported to Production Environment.
Where should I check? I don't have access to SE16 in Production.
Quick response will be appreciated.
Thanks & Regards.

hi Mehak,
go to transaction SE01 (either in development/customizing or in production system), in the first tabstrip enter the transport number and click on Log (2nd Pushbutton). This will display the Transport Log, and you can see if there were no errors during import into Production System, then your changes are there.
hope this helps

Production environment, please help...

Hi,
we have a large BC4J web based application.
we plan to put it production to allow to 40 CONCURENT USERS to connect to...
after testing the application in stand-alone OC4J. it works well, nut at some moments, the server print the message
like out of memory and it becomes realy slow. i restarted the OC4J
like java -Doc4j.userThreads=true -Xms100m -Xmx800m oc4j.jar to increase the heap and i hope that this will
solve the problem.
no for the production environment :
hardware
Sun server
4 x CPU x 450
4 G on RAM.
software
Sun Solaris 8
Oracle 9iAS R 2 (9.0.2.0.0)
so what is the good configuration for the OC4J in 9iAS to get our system support all users. should we
use - Doc4j.userThreads=true -Xms100m -Xmx800m even whith 9iAS.
thank you for your help.

El Bachir,
The heap size is dependent upon your application and no. of concurrent users you are using. Yes, you can specify the the heap size for OC4J also in an Oracle9iAS instance from the EMWebsite by navigating OC4J Instance ->Server Properties -> specify the parameters for the Java command.
For details how to determine the heapsize please look at the Performancing Guide. Here is the link
http://otn.oracle.com/docs/products/ias/doc_library/90200sol_otn/perf.902/a95102/optj2ee.htm#1012258

Working with Test/Production environment as application sets

Hi to all,
does anyone here works with a Test/Production environment system?
We've got a single system (2 machines, one for the DB server, one for BPC), and we were thinking on making 2 application sets: Production and Test. While most of the things is easy to migrate from one system to the other one (since almost all of them are files), what worries me a bit are dimensions and some configurations of the application, security, and so on...
Has anyone experience about it? Would you suggest it?
Thanks
Daniele

Hi Daniele,
As rightly suggested, duplicating an appset can be easily done on 2 different physical systems. In the source, you run the server manager and take the backup of your appset. Then copy the back up folder from source to the destination through the network. Again use server manager to restore the appset from the backup folder. With this process, everything will be migrated and you dont have to worry about anything.
The point of worry is, lets say you have moved everything to the PROD and then you continue doing development in DEV and then you want to move these changes also. Now, again taking backup and restoring will not be the right option because by now, there might be some PROD data available. and if you restore again, then all that data will be lost. So, after the first restore, whatever you are doing in DEV, keep a note of all that. So, that the same thing can be replicated in the PROD system.
Hope this helps.

SAP TAO,What is the purpose of Development,Quality,Production environment?

Hi All,
What is the significance of Development,Quality,Production environment under license tab of configuration in SAP TAO.
Which environment has to be selected for better operatability of SAP TAO functions.
Thanks and Regards,
Ujwal Kandimalla

Hi,
As TAO deals with the testing aspect, a 3 system landscape is recommended:
DEV : For unit testing
QA: For system testing and integrated testing
PRD: Has to be available for production usage
You could also have a Pre-Prod for load and UAT.
