EBS 11i on Linux x86_64

EBS 11i has been certified with Linux32-bit OS, not with Linux 64-bit OS.
Note: 343917.1 states: "When Linux or Windows 32-bit operating systems are installed, x86-64 servers can be used for Oracle E-Business Suite application and database tiers; ".
I want to install 11.5.10.X in the Oracle Enterprise Linux5.
my server:
#uname -a
Linux ebs1.****.com 2.6.18-92.el5 #1 SMP Fri May 23 23:40:43 EDT 2008 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux
which showing Linux x86_64. How could I know if the Linux 32-bit operating system had been installed in this x84-64 server?

Hi,
command to check the processer details
cat /proc/cpuinfo (or)
grep flags /proc/cpuinfo
if the results contain lm (long mode) then it is 64 bit processor
"uname -a" should give details of OS
If the results contain
- x86_64 => 64-bit OS
- i386 and i686 => 32 bit OS
Since your result contain x86_64, it must be 64 bit OS

Cloning/Migrating EBS 11i to Linux

Hi All,
We have a client implem with EBS 11i on AIX. We are still testing our implem and still we encounter lots of error.
Since we have limited access to the setup, I want to clone it in our office (on linux) so I can have a long time access and testing on it.
Can you give me notes on how to clone 11i from aix to linux?
Thanks a lot

Migrating Oracle EBS 11i to Linux OEL 5 64bit

Hello Experts!
My company is planning to migrate our EBS 11iR2 to Linux 5. Please someone can tell me what will be a good step to start. We are on Oracle Database 9iR2 and it is on Sun 32Bit OS same as Middle Tier.
We want only Middle Tier to be migrate as first steps to OEL 5 64bit OS, and keeping running the Database on Sun 32bit. Please tell me, if it is possible to run Oracle EBS 11iR2 on OEL 5 64bit and Database 9iR2 on Sun 32bit?
Thanks
Khawaja

Please tell me, if it is possible to run Oracle EBS 11iR2 on OEL 5 64bit and Database 9iR2 on Sun 32bit?You cannot run the middle tier on a 64-bit OS, only the database tier node is supported on 64-bit OS.
Please see (Frequently Asked Questions: Oracle E-Business Suite Support on x86-64 [ID 343917.1]) for details.
Also, please note that Oracle 9i is not supported on OEL5/RHEL5.

Upgrade Linux Server for EBS 11i

Hi All,
EBS 11i
RHEL 4.6
Our EBS 11i is currently running on HP server with RHEL 4.6 OS and a single node only. This server was bought 6 years ago and lately it is showing performance degradation. We want to migrate/upgrade to a higher end latest model of HP and make it a multi-node. But the latest HP model only support a minimum RHEL 5 version.
My question is, is cloning EBS 11i from RHEL 4.6 to RHEL 5 supported? How do I migrate EBS 11i with this kind of scenario?
Thanks a lot

Installing EBS 11i on CentOS 5.4

Dear Members :
Encountering: error while loading shared libraries: libdb.so.3: cannot open shared object file: no such file or directory >> in step 4/5 and message showing "starting CVM on middle tier".
CentOS might not be the certified version, but since it is nothing but RHEL, I tried. Could you clear my confusions :
[1] If patch 6078836 solves the issue, how to download, as I don't have Oracle SID.
[2] Whether patches are not required if I install it on OEL5 and what should be the right Update version for that ?
[3] Is there any way I could still install on CentOS5.4, applying some rpms, to overcome libdb.so.3 issue ?
I downloaded EBS 11i from e-delivery choosing "on-demand/Linux X86" .
Thanks in advance.
Atanu

Hi Atanu,
Could you please try to answer my first post in this regard ?
CentOS might not be the certified version, but since it is nothing but RHEL, I tried. Could you clear my confusions :Off course both Centos and redhat holds same source code, you can try your Installation on centos, but what i recommend is you can get certified OS platform free to download from oracle web http://edelivery.oracle.com then why to waste time on uncertified version of OS if Installation failed.
[1] If patch 6078836 solves the issue, how to download, as I don't have Oracle SID.Yes this can resolve your Issue, but for downloading this patch you need to have valid CSI number.
[2] Whether patches are not required if I install it on OEL5 and what should be the right Update version for that ?Yes, this is an interoperability patch at OS level provided by oracle as pre-requisite patch for Installing oracle applications.
[3] Is there any way I could still install on CentOS5.4, applying some rpms, to overcome libdb.so.3 issue ?yes, you can. But Instead of wasting your time i again recommend you to download OEL from http://edelivery.oracle.com

RHEL 6 for EBS 11i (11.5.10.2)

Hi hussein,
I posted a thread in here before about our company buying or upgrading to a newer server which is of higher-end and with bigger CPUs and Memories.
We are currently running EBS 11i (11.5.10.2) on the current server which is about 6 years old. This is single node only and running RHEL 4.6.
Now, due to performance degradation, we are buying newer machines which will be a two-node configuration. The machine vendor said that the O.S. that it runs on will be RHEL 6.
My question is....Is RHEL 6 supported in EBS 11i? Can I clone the existing PROD EBS 11i which is on RHEL 4.6 to
the new target servers running on RHEL 6?
Thanks a lot,
Ms Inday

My question is....Is RHEL 6 supported in EBS 11i? No, you either need to install RHEL4 or RHEL5.
Can I clone the existing PROD EBS 11i which is on RHEL 4.6 to
the new target servers running on RHEL 6?If you install RHEL5, you can use Rapid Clone to clone from RHEL4 to RHEL5.
Please see these docs for the list of pre-req. software and packages on RHEL5/OEL5

Sizing calculator for EBS 11i

Hi,
I want to have an official calculator regarding the hardware sizing for Oracle EBS 11i.
I found on OTN that such tool exist only for discoverer (http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/discoverer/files/discoverer10_1_2_0_2_sizing_calculator.xls).
Please help me where to find a similar tool for EBS itself, not only for Discoverer.

Ugrading EBS 11i to latest JRE

Hi hussein and all,
EBS 11i
OEL 5
9I
Up to now we are still using old browser (firefox 2.2) and jinitiator to access or prod EBS.
We want to migrate it to using JRE - https://blogs.oracle.com/stevenChan/entry/jinitiator_13_to_be_desupporte
By using this docs > Deploying JRE (Native Plug-in) for Windows Clients in Oracle E-Business Suite 11i (Doc ID 290807.1).
My problem is our DEV and TEST instance shared the same server. I want to test upgrade the JRE for TEST instance first
and not DEV because there are lots of developers using this instance. Is this possible?
Thanks a lot for your unfailing support.

Installing EBS 11i (11.5.10.2)

Hi All,
I have installed EBS 11i before many times , and each time I install in another server (linux) i encounter different error.
My error now is that the gui window installer just closed suddenly without completing.
I tried to restart it many times (./rapidwiz -restart ) but still the screen window will just close out.
I check the log files and I can see that the installer passed the DB Tier creation. I can start/shutdown the database and the listener. But the application tier has not yet been populated. There is no data yet in the respective directories (prodcomn,prodora,prodappl)
The following is the log file of rapidwiz -restart (last part)

Thanks a lot

Thanks for your words, it is really too much. Thanks anyway :)
Did you verify that the database was created successfully? From the entries above, it indicates that the JDBC connection cannot be established, and this would happen if there is a missing entry in the hosts file OR the database is down OR the database listener is down. So, please refer to the installation log file and/or alert_<SID>.log file to verify this.

Installing Oracle EBS 11i installation problem

Dear All,
I have a problem regarding the installation of Oracle EBS 11i of which I can't figure out a solution.
After unzipping all the 108 files during the rapidwiz installation the installer seems to halt (in step 1, 100% of file extraction). It involves instconf.drv but it doesn't show me an error in the installation logs. The line that appears is the following:
instantiatefile -d instconf.drv
I tried to change my Linux distribution from SLES10 to Ubuntu but that doesn't work either.
Could you please help me out with this.
Kind regards,
Charif Ennaciri
