E-Business Suite 12 on ASM - RAC - Very Large Banking Database

Hi All,
Oracle is recommending to go with ASM - OMF RAC for a fresh implementation of E-Business Suite 12i on AIX nodes, the database is expected to growth quite rapidly as per business case.
I request all members to contribute their experience and issues they faced in their day to day support and issues with cloning from Apps DBA prespective.
Any inputs is highly regarded.
Thanks

>
We have a setup of HP-UX servers running 11g database with ASM on Oracle RAC. And application server running Oracle
E-business Suite 12 on RHEL 5. Is hyper threading is supported with this application.

E Business suite -BOM and interfaces

I have spent 29 yrs in Engg/Mfg industry. I have found that Oracle apps ERP Business suite BOM module is very poorly conceived . It is rich and robust in other areas but in design activity of business function it is not good.It needs lot of change. It is becoming useful only when we customize it. Some of the concern points are :
1.Too many identifications and dummy nos.
2. No facility to generate long lead BOM
3.No facility of automatic discounting of long lead items
4.No discretization of module
5.No facility for advance mfg item generation
many like this................
With all my due regards to Oracle I do not get a feeling that a hardcore working designer's brain has gone into it.
If Oracle needs my help I am ready to extend my help in sharing my practical views to make it more rich.

Hussein,
Database Version is RDBMS 11.2.0.2; Oracle EBS Version is R-12.1.3; OS is HP-UX Itanium 64-Bit Version 11.31 (for DB and Apps Tier).
We bounced the application services after doing the above changes and running AutoConfig.
We checked access_log and the only information that we can find there is

E-Business Suite R12.1 on Exadata with Database Rel 12c - Upgrade and Migrate, or Migrate and Upgrade

Given:
E-Business Suite R12.1 running against non-RAC database release 11gR2
Aspiration:
E-Business Suite R12.1 running against database release 12c RAC on Exadata
In the context of Oracle best practices, what would be a preferred approach for the database tier to meet the above aspiration, i.e. (a) Upgrade database on source and then migrate to Exadata OR (b) Migrate database to Exadata and then upgrade ?
Appreciate thoughts from community members/Oracle support.
Thanks,
Rakesh

Rakesh,
It is necessary to refine Srini's statement:
EBS does not need to be "certified" on Exadata. See:
Running E-Business Suite on Exadata V2
https://blogs.oracle.com/stevenChan/entry/e-business_suite_exadata_v2
E-Business Suite 11i, 12.0, and 12.1 are certified with Database 12.1.0.1.
E-Business Suite 12.2 will be certified with Database 12.1.0.1 soon.

E Business Suite Clone Issue

Dear All,
In windows 2003 server we got E-Business Suite on Oracle Rac, Now i'm trying to clone Application & Database for Development use.. in prerequisite steps i need to run Adpreclone, first with the DB Tier i completed successfully, when comes to Application Tier i'm getting this issue:
Perl lib version (v5.6.1) doesn't match executable version (v5.10.0) at D:\oracl
e\PROD\apps\tech_st\10.1.2\perl\5.6.1\lib\MSWin32-x86/Config.pm line 21.
Compilation failed in require at adpreclone.pl line 35.
BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at adpreclone.pl line 35.
as the issue say's i got 2 version's of perl, But the thing is when i check in path i can only find Perl lib version (v5.6.1).. where the hell this version (v5.10.0) came from...? i even set PERL5LIB Path to version (v5.6.1).. still no use when i run perl adpreclone.pl same error shows...
I think you people can understand what my problem is, if you guys need something else please let me know
With Regards,
Babu

Hi,
Can you set the perl for v5.10.0 as:
set PERL5LIB=<ORACLE_HOME>\perl\lib\5.10.0;<ORACLE_HOME>\perl\site_perl\5.10.0;<ORACLE_HOME>\appsutil\perl
Please ensure to correctly define this to you perl v5.10.0 version
Hope this help!

Oracle E-Business Suite 12.0.6 on Oracle Linux 5.5

My production apps (Oracle E-Business Suite 12.0.6) and db (Oracle Database 10.2.0.4.0) tiers reside on their own Redhat 4.6 servers. I have a new server that I am in the process of installing Oracle Linux 5.5 on for hosting a TEST instance - both apps and db tiers. Once the OS is installed I will clone production to it either using rapidclone or rman duplicate. Where can I learn what if any packages I need to install before cloning to my new Oracle 5.5 Linux server?

Installing Oracle Grid Agent on R12 E-Business suite

All,
I have 10.2.0.3 OEM Grid Server installed and configured. This has been monitoring few of my standalone and dataguard production databases in which Oracle grid agents are installed and configured.
I have recently deployed R12 E-business suite with two application nodes and one database in a F5 load balancer environment. I am wanting to install and configure Oracle Grid agent on R12 EBS Application and Database nodes to monitor my R12 EBS by making use of existing Oracle Grid server.
Has anyone installed and configured Oracle grid agent on R12 Application and database nodes?
Any informantion/pointers that anyone can provide on the above would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Palani

Do you know the ports that need to be opened between Application Tier and Grid control server?Not sure what grid control version you are installing. However, if you choose to go with the default ports then see the documentation for the list of ports you need to open -- http://www.oracle.com/pls/em111/search?word=Ports&format=ranked&remark=quick_search

Oracle E-Business Suite 11.5.9 Application & Database

Hello Folks,
Happy New Year.
Need quick document in meta-link or blog which will help me connect the database on other server to the Oracle E-business Suite EBS application
The scenario:
Application and Database are on the server_A (hostname ServerA)
I have made a cold backup of the database and restored it on Server_B ( hostname ServerB) { let us say I migrated / moved the database to another machine }
Database starts and listener starts fine on ServerB
Now, the question is: How can I connect or point the Oracle EBS 11.5.x application to the Database on ServerB ?

Thanks Hussein,
SQL> select owner, object_type from dba_objects where object_name = 'FND_NODES';
OWNER OBJECT_TYPE
APPLSYS TABLE
APPS SYNONYM
SQL> SELECT trigger_name , status FROM user_triggers WHERE table_name = 'FND_NODES' ;
TRIGGER_NAME STATUS
FNDSM ENABLED
UPNAME ENABLED
Hussein, the specific question is as such.. I don't know if this is possible or not.
Can you have two databases connected to the same application.
Scenario:
SERVER_A = has both the application and database
using DBVISIT software / which is an alternative to DataGuard ... which transfers the archive log files to the other server, I have moved or made the standby server as my primary database . see here for details http://blog.dbvisit.com/the-power-of-oracle-services-with-standby-databases/
Two Questions:
1) How to re-configure my Application ( Oracle EBS ) to point to the same Database but on a different hostname/server/ip address which you have answered and referred to the MetaLink documents ( thank you for that )
2) Can I have two pointers to the database in the Application, to the existing one and to the one on standby server ?
a) is this possible ?
Also,
now regarding changing the hostname for the database in Oracle EBS apps you have recommended
Rapid Clone Documentation Resources For Release 11i and 12 [ID 799735.1] -- Rapid Clone of E-Business Suite Release 11i
How to change the hostname and/or port of the Database Tier using AutoConfig [ID 338003.1]
How to get a clean Autoconfig Environment ? [ID 391406.1]

Now, I have read those documents which is kind of summarized here:
http://oracleappsdba1.blogspot.com/2009_07_01_archive.html
I hope my question is clear.
I have already moved the database to another Machine ( different hostname + different IP ) and the application is on the previous machine
So, to connect the Application on SERVER_A to the same database but on a different machine SERVER_B I will have to only follow the instructions mentioned in Metalink 338003.1 or do I need more steps ?

E Business suite 11i with Database in ASM - Cloning

Hi All,
We are planning to migrate the E Business suite database to ASM and wanted to know the best cloning method to perform the cloning from Production to non production.
Applciation - 11.5.10.2
Database - 10.2.0.4 in ASM
Since i dont see any specific notes in metalink on this, raised an SR with oracle and they told that oracle does not support this but we can use RMAN as few of the customers use RMAN to perform the clonine.
Can you please advice on the best methode to perform this
Our constraints :
We have a constrain in performing the cloning through RMAN, for performing the duplicate database we need to have the sqlplus connection between prod and non prod. We will not be getting this setup due to security policy.
I had referred the "Best Practices for Cloning ASM-managed Databases" white paper
Thanks & Regards,
Rakesh

Very Large Business Application (VLBA)

CVLBA Research Center
The Center for Very Large Business Applications (CVLBA) is a joint research initiative of the Otto-von-Guericke University Magdeburg and the Technische Universität München which was initiated by SAP in 2006. The decision by SAP AG to fund research with these two university partners stems from the cooperation experiences and the knowledge transfer that has taken place by jointly running the SAP University Alliances Project. Fifteen researchers in the CVLBA teams at Otto-von-Guericke University Magdeburg and Technische Universität München focus their research on bridging the gap between ERP research and ERP development.
Defining Very Large Business Applications
The first step in exploring issues of VLBA was to establish a common working definition to be used by all partners. According to the definition used a VLBA is essentially characterized u2013 in contrast to a single business application u2013 by its strategic importance for an organization, by its spatial, organizational, cultural or technical unrestrictedness and by its capability to be implemented by application systems or system landscapes.
The goal of the foundation of VLBA is a profound definition that conceives a VLBA as both, an application (instantiation level; VLBA in the narrower sense) and a research framework (meta level; VLBA in the broader sense). You can find more details in the text attached in this thread. We are looking forward to your feedback about this highly relevant topic, in particular regarding sustainability, legacy systems and cultural diversity!

Definition of Very Large Business Application
The first step in exploring issues of a Very Large Business Application (VLBA) was to establish a common working definition to be used by all partners. A VLBA deals with a business application, which has a strategic importance within a constituted organization. Significant features of a VLBA are:
(1) A VLBA supports one or more processes, from which one at least is a business process. Consequently, a VLBA is directly successfully effective and the strategic dependency of the organization is given by an application of a VLBA, because changing or turning the system away is associated with big financial, organizational and personnel-related costs.
(2) A VLBA does not have any spatial, organizational, cultural or technical limits.
(3) VLBAs could be implemented through application systems as well as through system landscapes. It is significant that they support a (universal organizational) business process.
A possible far reaching ability of automation of internal processes should be achieved through the application of the most modern technologies. Supply Chain Management (SCM)- and Customer Relationship Management (CRM)-systems are instances for this kind of software, as far as they fulfill all defined requirements. VLBAs are similar to a Business Information System in the manner that they can support several Business Application Fields and in this case, they are based on several types of Business Application Systems.
VLBA as a Field of Research
Along with the first definition, the concept of u2018VLBAu2019 was classified and integrated into the already existing conceptual world of business informatics, using the UML. This allows distinguishing u2018VLBAu2019 from other related topics and clearly defines its scope in the business informaticsu2019 scientific world. In particular, a VLBA can be regarded as a special system landscape on the one hand and as a research area in the other hand. The present-day heterogeneous and grown system landscapes, just like they are usually discovered in the business practice, suffer from the symptom of spaghetti integration. Therefore, it seems to be practical to raise principles of the Software Engineering to the level of the system landscapes and to establish a design theory in the sense of System Landscape Engineering.

PC suite opening in VERY large fonts

when i click on pc suite it opens up very lage....
can someone tell me how to get it back to normal size?

Roberth
It is possible that your PC suite is unable to read your PC default fonts.
Once you open the PC suite with large fonts just check in control panel > display > appearence > font size. It should read as normal. If it does then you have a problem with PC suite

Oracle E-Business Suite integration is failing with OSSO

We are integration EBS 12.1.1 with OSSO 10g (OID 10.1.4.3) using txkrun.pl script. This is a production environment and has 2 nodes of OID and 2 nodes of Database in RAC mode. When we run the txkrun.pl script we are getting the below error:

If you are running Oracle E-Business Suite Release 12.1.1 and integrating with OID 11g, you will also need to download and install TXK patch 7651166, which provides several fixes to Applications Technology code, including an update to the Oracle E-Business Suite OID registration scripts that adds support for OID 11g. The patch should be applied to all Oracle E-Business Suite middle tier nodes. This patch is not required if you are integrating with any other version of Oracle E-Business Suite.

Prashant.

E-business suite book recommendations

Hi, I used oracle Apps 10.7 about 8 years ago (and can remember very little). I have only been doing core development DBA work since. I am interested in doing a bit of a tech refresh with 11.5+/12 and also RAC, I would appreciate any recommendations for books that will expedite the refresh and explain things clearly without too much "fluff".
Many Thanks.

I would suggest you start with Oracle Apps Documentation.
Applications Releases 11i and 12
http://www.oracle.com/technology/documentation/applications.html
Oracle Database Documentation
http://www.oracle.com/technology/documentation/database.html
- Oracle Applications Concepts
- Oracle Applications Installation Guide: Using Rapid Install
- Maintaining Oracle Applications Documentation Set
- Oracle Applications System Administrator's Documentation Set
Once you get familiar with the architecture and the different components of Oracle Apps, consider the following:
- Do an Apps installation yourself (on Linux/Windows)
- Set up users/responsibilities/printers/CM ..etc
- Practice Cloning
- Apply Patches
- Practice AutoConfig to manage system configurations
- Upgrade Database/Application
Go for Oracle Apps training if you can afford it. Moreover, consider to get the following books:

Report Builder Question: Printing PO's from E-Business Suite - POXPRPOL

I'm hoping there's someone who has the time to help me: We are using Report Builder 9, Oracle 9i, and E-Business Suite 11.5.10.
I am a new developer using Oracle, and need to make some changes to the seeded (default) POXPRPOL (Purchase Order Print - Landscape) report, using Report Builder.
I have two problems:
1. When I print PO Releases from E-Business Suite, and specify I want releases 1 through 2, I get those fine, but the first page is my "Purchase Agreement". The question is: Is there any way (programatically or otherwise) to say "When the "Release" fields are filled out, don't include the Purchase Agreement?
2. Somehow, after making a few changes to the POXPRPOL report, my quantity has disappeared. Is there any suggestions on how this could happen? I look at the query where they are using "POL.QUANTITY_TO_PRINT" for the working and the non-working reports, and they look identical.
I'm hoping DESPERATELY that someone can help me - I'm really in a bind...
Thanks!
Steve

Srini,
Thanks so much for your reply!!!
1. Ok, but how do I hide a whole page? I noticed the conditional formatting, but I want to "not print" a whole page when this page is a "Purchase Agreement".
2. I've checked the source - it's coming from POL.QUANTITY_TO_PRINT - POL is a view that is unpopulated. I assume it's populated at run-time. So now I am trying to track down where it's populated, but can't find that in report builder. The quantity is being taken into account, because I put a total at the bottom of the page, and that number matches price * pol.quantity_to_print. Very strange...
Finally, here's another question, if you don't mind:
3. When I print a purchase order that is set up as a blanket, as I mentioned before, I get my "Purchase Agreement" first, and then one (or more) pages per release. But the "Page Number" on each is "1" because each is a one-page PO. But my "total pages" is "3", so each page reads "Page 1 of 3". Any idea if there's a way around that?
Thanks again! Hoping you have some more insight! :)
Cheers!
Steve
