Automate DBAdapter creation and testing using ANT

I am using SOA suite 10.1.3.1.
I would like to automate creation and testing of DBAdapter and I know that we have some ANT task to create and test connection pool and datasource like
createJDBCConnectionPool
createManagedDataSource
testConnectionPool
testDataSource
etc...
but I fail to found ANT task for DBAdapter.
It would be grateful if someone can tell if it exists or not.

sure, it's my pleasure.
Before running the code, please read the following document first. They talked about how to use JMX to control the AS. Basically, you will need the admin client library to do the job as Oracle don't use JRMP, so you need the library to provide the underlaying protocol(i.e. ORMI).

India Localization Test instance

hi all :
Is there any Test Instance for India Localization .
thnks

If you mean a public access instance with India localization, then I do not think such an instance available. If you need more details about setting up India localization, search this forum as the same topic was discussed here many times before.

Report taking more time in Test Instance

Hello Guys,
I have got a custom report which is taking Just 2 mins in Dev Instance to complete but taking Hours to complete in Test Instance.Can any one suggest me what will be the solution to Tackle this.
thanks in advance

Sounds like you have some indexes missing on the test database.
Run the report outputing the result of the SQL to a file. Then you can look at the resulting file to see which SQL queries are taking too long and alter your
database accordingly.
You are going to ask how to switch on the debugging? I havn't got Oracle Reports Builder with me but there is an option that you can set in the Report
Builder to output the SQL results to a file.

Help Required in Migrating the Dev to Test Instance

Hi
Am very new to SOA platform, i developed one project in dev instance. now i would like to move this project to test instance.
can any one help me to migrating the project.
So I Need sample document with step by step instruction. i have 5 days only to migrate, i gone through so many blogs and post in metalink, but i didn't understand the concept exactly.
Santhosh Kumar. K

Hi K,
There are many ways to do it, it will all depend on your environment.
The way that works for me is:
1. Deploy your project to SAR (it will actually generate a jar file)
2. Copy the generated file to the environment where it will be deployed
3. Use the ant-sca-deploy.xml to deploy it
ant-sca-deploy.xml will be located at $BEA_HOME/Oracle_SOA1/bin
and you can call it from your own ant build.xml like this:
     <target name="deploy-app">
          <ant
               antfile="${beaHome}/Oracle_SOA1/bin/ant-sca-deploy.xml"
               target="deploy"
               dir="${beaHome}/Oracle_SOA1/bin"
               >
               <property name="serverURL" value="${scaDeployUrl}"/>
               <property name="sarLocation" value="${appEarDestDir}/${sca.jar}"/>
               <property name="overwrite" value="true"/>
               <property name="user" value="${domainUser}"/>
               <property name="password" value="${domainPwd}"/>
               <property name="failOnError" value="true"/>
               <property name="partition" value="${partition}"/>
          </ant>
     </target>

How to move the JSP report in local Tomcat server to test instance-reg

Dear All:
I have developed a self service report using JSP for Leave details of an employee.
Right now the report is in my local system tomcat server how can i register/move it into the test instance (ie.DEV) of Oracle apps .
can any of you let me know this plsssssssssss.........
with warm regards
Geetha

Geetha,
I don't want to seem unhelpful, but I don't see the relevance to Apex in your question, this forums is specifically for Apex related questions therefore you would have more chance of a useful answer if you posted your question in a JSP/Tomcat related forum.

Create a test instance

I installed the new oracle 10g home, before upgrade the main database from 9i to 10g, i want to create a testing instance just to test if i can start sqlplus from 10g home. What's the procedure to create such instance?
Thanks!

If you want to create a regular instance go ahead and run dbca or run your scripts.

B1 API Test Instance

Hi all,
We are building a marketplace product and would like to be able to integrate with the SAP B1 systems of our users through the DI-API (using the Java Connector). We'd need to hook into inventory/ stock management as well as sales/ purchase orders and so on.
In an ideal world we would have our own stripped down test instance either in the cloud or installed on our own hardware which we'd use for development/ testing then we'd set up a sandboxed environment within each of our users' systems.
My question has several parts:
1. Is this how people normally approach this issue? Is it common to have a standalone test instance or to use a sandboxed environment in a production instance?
2. How plausible and costly would it be to set up our own basic instance of B1? Would we need to purchase a full-fat license or is there some sort of developer option?
3. How simple is it to set up sandboxed environments on existing systems?
Thanks in advance

Hi Simon,
As Pedro covered question 1 and 3, I'll try to shed some light on question 2.
The licensing needed and associated costs depend, on your needs and wants. Theoretically you could just copy the DI API driver from somewhere and start developing, but you would be working blind.
So setting up your own basic instance of B1 is definitely plausible. How costly is another question all together.
The smallest possible B1 installation requires a single license. A standard professional license, unlocks all possible functionality of the B1 system, and costs 2500 €, but there are "starter" deals, and volume discounts kick in at relatively low amounts of licenses.
Then there are limited use licenses that will unlock only certain parts of the system.
There are also special licenses for non-client access that are relatively cheap (around 100 €, if memory serves).
Next thing you need to consider is if you want SAP to endorse your product or company (allow you to stick a SAP logo onto your web page and such). In that case the requirements and license costs are completely different. Chances are that you get a number of B1 licenses for free, but you might end up paying some sort of Partner fees. So in a nutshell, in that case, I would recommend contacting SAP [YourCornerOfTheWorldHere], and ask them what the possibilities are.
Regards,
Johan

Regarding respnsibilities, test instance

i need your comments.
In my existing job i worked on EBS11. Our DBA has given us Test Instance. where we can test our forms, reports, procedures, functions etc. we could upload form,reports,procedures,functions and have all schema's passwords on test instance.
But now in my current job working on EBS12. My DBA has not given me any test instance. i have only Application developer responsibility and have only read/write access on a custom folder.
Edited by: fassi on Oct 21, 2008 3:38 AM

On the DEV instance, I would give access to all financial modules and responsibilities (but not System Administrator) to my developers. If there is a need to have more privileges, they can ask for it. Developers have also access to apps (and other financial schemas, but not system or sys users).
For accessing the OS files, why would you bother yourself about having an access? Request the files from the DBA and let him upload it back once you are done.

Test instance ...

Hi,
For testing purpose of archive log process:
We have last week prod backup and archive logs for the week. Can i create a test instance using the ( last week prod backup+week archive logs on test environment) if then how?
Since we have to run the adcfgclone.pl in db which will open the database and can't apply the archive logs.
Thanks,
Jai

Hi jai;
Why u dont take rman backup+archivelog and dont follow cloning documents?

Need a tool to create Development and Test instance of a Production db

I am very new to Oracle and have previously worked with SQL Server 2005/8 only.
My current company only has one instance of the Oracle database (which is production) and until now, all development and testing used to take place on the same instance (what a mess!!).
Anyways, we have now decided to create a development and test on a separate physical machine. We are on Oracle 11g on Windows 2008 Server.
In SQL Server, it used to be fairly simple, just take a full backup of the database and restore it on another box with SQL Server and we had a new instance of the same database.
Can someone point out a simple technique to create these development and test instance in Oracle. Essentially, we want to clone the database. Are there any tools available that can make this task simple.
Thanks.

Welcome the the forums !
I believe this question is better suited to the "Database - General" forum (General Database Discussions but here is my take.
You will first need to clone the Oracle binaries (ORACLE_HOME) - see MOS Doc 1154613.1 (Master Note For Cloning Oracle Database Server ORACLE_HOME's Using the Oracle Universal Installer (OUI))
Then clone the database - see MOS Doc 458450.1 (Steps to Manually Clone a Database)

Create dev and test instances of Apex on the same server and database

I have a dev and prod instances of Apex on different servers. I want a test instance on the same server as the dev instance.
I am using workspace export/import so all instance workspaces have the same workspace id. The application ID is the same on each instance, in the same workspace. This allows pages to be exported/imported in the differenct instances.
My question is (I am sure it is obvious) can I have more than one instances of Apex on the same database (dev and test) and have each instance have identical Workspace IDs, etc.
Sam

Hi Sam,
But you can have more than one database on the same server.
What we do is create a separate database for each APEX versions we are supporting (we still have a customer using APEX 2.0).
All the databases are accessed with the same APACHE config. All you have to do is change the DAD and have a separate dad for each database (i.e. each APEX versions).
ex : /pls/apex_dev /pls/apex_test
This way , I can run different APEX versions on the same server.
