How to extend Prebuilt SOA/BPM Suite VM domain to include IPM?

I am using the Pre-built Virtual Machine for SOA Suite and BPM Suite 11g. I want to extend the domain to include IPM because my BPM app needs to search and update document fields stored in the UCM repository. When I use the Fusion Middleware Configuration Wizard to extend the domain to include IPM, it fails.
One thing I noticed is that it doesn't recognize the existing components that are already in the domain. For example, Enterprise Manager is not checked and grayed out as it should be. (Maybe this is related to the fact this prebuilt VM has a "collapsed domain".)
When I check IPM, it automatically checks "Oracle Enterprise Manager" and "Oracle JRF" in the list. Clicking next, it then complains of existing components (Oracle JRF), but I select "Keep existing component". Eventually I receive this error message:
CFGFWK-64056: There is a problem with the template!
So, how can I get IPM working on this VM? Or, is there another VM (or more than one) that will allow me to run SOA and BPM Suite, along with UCM and IPM? As I said, I am creating a BPM app that needs to communicate with IPM to search for and update field data for documents stored in the UCM respository.

Hi Preethi,
I also have same kind of scenario. Were you able to refresh the workspace programatically?
Thanks,
Pradeep

How long until Oracle posts BPM Suite bundle definition and costs???

Alright... how long do we have to wait until Oracle officially posts what is in the BPM Suite and updates the price list? The current web site contents certainly don't have the up to date BPM Suite product bundle correctly identified. The May price list still has the price over $115K which can't be right since I also need the SOA Suite. I have run into multiple Oracle sales reps who all gave me different answers. Anyone else care to know this information with some clarity and want to chime in asking Oracle to make it clear?

Hi Kyle,
I really understands your concern.With some limited feature with BPM composer it is best to start building BPM Process first from using Jdeveloper.
They we can move to web form which will give an more insight into BPM.
Please prepare to have some knowledge on ADF too. Its simple
To start with i would suggest below link:

I am not all that tech savy so if you have answer in layman's terms it would be appreciated
Thanks   Eddie

this is the worst nokia i have had, except the slide phone i had for 13 months that lost its speaker. i cant believe that the ring time cant be extended, this would be the only product on the world market that cant extend it ring time. i dont see your technical help answering the question.

How to extend WebLogic's Cipher Suites

Newbie question...
I've seen the list of WebLogic supported cipher suites. It doesn't seem to have AES and TDEA (3 key) built-in. Can it support these and if so how. Does one buy these from a 3rd party? If so, who?
Thanks.

These suites are not supported in 810. AES will be supported in the next major release. TDEA will not, since it is not supported by the SSL implementation used by WLS.

Extending Expense Management Example in BPM Suite

Hi All,
I am a newbie for BPM Suite. I went through the expense management example.. Next, I would like to extend the example and integrate it with external resources like database and http server (apache tomcat will do).
For eg, Can I store the list of participants in the database and retrieve them when I launch my workspace.
I read about BPM Process API (PAPI), PBL, Fuego but I am not able to relate these. Can anyone please explain me how are they used in integration with BPM Suite ??? Next, How is BPEL Manager Used with BPM Suite ???
I tried searching internet for tutorials/articals but was not able to find anything relevant.
Kindly help...
Many Thanks,
Sophie

Here are the steps:
1. create an external source for your DB: right-click on External Resources -> New External Resource -> Type: SQL Database -> enter all necessary information on your DB (page 145 Oracle BPM StudioGuide)
2. create a module: right-click on Catalog -> New -> Module -> enter name (page 167 Oracle BPM StudioGuide)
3. catalog the external resource: right-click on the newly created Module -> Catalog Component -> SQL -> choose your ex. res.
4. create a BPMObject according to your data structure you want to store.
5. create a presentation based on this BPMObject
6. use a BPM Object Interactive Call in your screenflow to display the form (presentation).
7. implement an automatic activity (impl. type: method) and enter this SQL statement into the method (var1SF id my instance variable in the screenflow):
INSERT INTO buch (id, titel, author, preis)
VALUES (var1SF.id, var1SF.titel, var1SF.author, var1SF.preis)
Have also a look at the thread:
h4. BPM and database interaction
and consider Dan Atwood's answer (i couldn't implement it yet...) on reading data from the DB

"Oracle BPM Suite 11g" and "Oracle SOA Suite 11g" components

Dear Friends,
I am very confusing about the "Oracle BPM suite 11g" and "Oracle SOA Suite 11g" and would like your help on explanation as the following :
I have learn that In order to use "Oracle BPM Suite 11g" require to have "Oracle SOA Suite 11g" components to install first. Does it means that :
1) When we buy "Oracle BPM Suite 11g" , we automatically get the "Oracle SOA Suite 11g" components as well ?
2) IS it correct that these " these Oracle SOA Suite 11g components" are included :
(a) Oracle BAM
(b) Oracle Business Rules
(c) Oracle BPEL Manager
(d) Oracle Service Bus
(e) Oracle Complex Event Processing
3) Do we have a right to use all of these components listed in (2) ?
4) Then the answers in (3) is "YES", then Is it correct when the customer buy the "Oracle BPM Suite 11g" , they no need to buy "Oracle SOA 11g" any more when they would like to implements that applications based on SOA in the future (without using BPM) ?
5) What IF , the customer would like to start with "Oracle SOA Suite 11g" product and decide to buy only Oracle SOA Suite 11g first ; then later on in the future they would like to implement BPM projects in the future. Can you upgrade "Oracle SOA Suite 11g" to include "Oracle BPM Sutie 11g" and pay only the price different ?
I hope you can help providing the answers to these questions. THank you very much in advance.
Best Regards
Pearapon S.

This is a question best answered by your Oracle reseller or Oracle account manager to give you all the details but I hope this brief answer helps:
- The Unified Business Process Management Suite (BPM Suite 11g) includes: BPM Studio, BPM Composer, BPMN Service Engine and Workflow Extensions, BPM Process Spaces, and BPM Process Analytics.
- BPM Suite 11g requires the licensing of SOA Suite 11g for Oracle Middleware which requires a license for WebLogic Suite.
- You can license SOA Suite 11g now and license BPM Suite 11g later.
Since the products are layered, I don't see this cutting into SOA sales at all. My personal view is that BPM on top of SOA is brilliant since it provides easy integration between human and automated tasks, builds on many of the SOA concepts that are key for a successful BPM implementation (functional, not the Oracle product), and uses the same IDE. The synergies extend past easy use of services; the same business rules and human workflow components are used between both products.

Installing Oracle BPM suite, when SOA and BAM domain are already installed

Hi Gurus
I have installed already Oracle SOA domain now I have to install Oracle BPM suite, How to install it with no effect on already installaton.
Please guide,
Aamir

Hi Aamir,
Shutdown the database all the servers. Start the configuration wizard again(SOAORACLE_HOME/common/bin/config.sh) and select BPM and finish it. (SOA and BPM share the same schemas)
Start the servers. Now you can see that BPM is configured with your soa server.
To check whether everything is fine, login to AdminConsole , goto Deployments and check whether oracle.bpm.runtime(11.1.1,11.1.1) is shown as "Active"
thanks,
Murugesh

How difficult is it to learn BPM Suite, provided you are good in BPEL

Hi All
I have good experience in Oracle SOA SUite 11g, particularly in implementing BPEL.
I want to know how tough is it to learn Oracle BPM Suite 11g. I'm not going for any training, Want to learn it myself.
Concepts wise, how different is BPM Suite from BPEL?
Please help me in this regard.
As always, I follow Handbooks from Oracle Press.
I've done it for ADF, SOA, and now, I want to do it for BPM too.
How good is that book, and please give me any other resources, keeping in mind, I'm a beginner for BPM Suite.
Regards

Blog : www.soatutor.com

From my experience I feel BPEL has much more capability than BPM/BPMN. From learning point of view it is easier than BPEL as it has got fewer components compared to BPEL. Oracle Handbook cover basic topics like Hello World programs. Advance topics are hard to find on the web for BPM.

Pre-built Virtual Machine for SOA Suite and BPM Suite 11g - console logons

Dear All
Excellent work on VirtualBox SOA suite image, very very cool
All started up no sweat, logged into virtual image no probs (oracle:oracle)
Firefox all nicely set up with links
BUT what are the console logins for
1 - Oracle EM
2 - WLS Console
3 - BPM Workspace
4 - BPM Process Composer
5 - Oracle B2B Login
Perhaps I'm missing something, but I cant find them
many thanks all

I will try to explain in more detail what i am trying here:
I am planning to use the Virtual Machine as server, just for running Weblogic with SOA/BPM.
All the development i will do on a different computer, where I have installed JDeveloper. From the development environment I will try to deploy applications on SOA/BPM Virtual machine.
As I understood, bridge networking are problematic when using wireless connectivity and VirtualBox. Therefore, I am trying to use NAT with port forwarding instead.
To make port forwarding work:
First, you need to execute on the host the following command line:
+VBoxManage modifyvm "vbox-oel5u4-soabpm-11gr1ps2-bp1-otn" --natpf1 "guestswls,tcp,,7001,,7001"+
Next, on guest VM, Network Adapters, choose NAT and as Adapter Type choose: Intel PRO/1000 MT Server
With this settings, I am able to connect from development computer to the Em console, WLS console etc. I am able even to 'see' the WLS SOA/BPM instance with JDeveloper from LAN machine. But when I am trying to deploy from JDeveloper, under SOA Servers step2 screen, I see the server URL as localhost:7001. Therefore I cannot deploy yet...
Thanks,
Florin

Oracle BPM 10gR3 to Oracle SOA 11g Suite

I am not sure some body else already asked.
I have Oracle BPM product in production which is fine and happy the way it works. Its developed from Version: 10.3.1.0.0 Build: #100364. We use custom JSP, JavaComponent, PAPI etc in this.
We are thinking of migrating to Oracle SOA 11g Suite.
Is there any tool for this? If not, anything expected?
Do we need to re-write our BPM 10g app to 11g? What all parts might need to re-write?

To answer to you question in a straight way I am afraid there is no direct migration path from OBPM 10g to Oracle SOA Suite 11g. You would need to we-write a lot of things like
1. As of now the BPM API's arent public. so u wont have something like PAPI as in OBPM
2. There is no support for PBL/Java in Oracle BPM 11g. However if you want to use custom Java Component u can leverage BPEL or Spring along with BPM. Every component is afterall packed inside a single composite.
3. It is advisable to have all dashboards and UI's developed with ADF if you are with Oracle SOA Suite 11g but even if you have JSPs that shouldnt be a problem.
This topic was discussed some days back in this forum. You can find the thread here
Business case to move from Oracle BPM 10.3g to BPM11g

Failing to assemble Downloaded Pre-built Virtual Machine for SOA Suite and BPM Suite 11g

Hello,
I checked the download checksum of the files downloaded for Pre-built Virtual Machine for SOA Suite and BPM Suite 11g ( Pre-built Virtual Machine for SOA Suite and BPM Suite 11g ) and they all match checksums.
however, when I try to assemble them with 7zip, I get a corrupt error message. I have tried downloading with Chrome and Internet Explorer. I have also tried assembling the 7zip files different ways.
Is there anything else I should try?
Running on Windows 7, 64 bit machine. (with lots of disk space).
Is there any other way to get the files?
thank you.

thanks for the response
I guess I will have to do that as well.
However, it defeats the speed with which can ramp up with the toolset; thus slowing my time I can allocate to learning it...

Differences between human workflow in SOA Suite or in BPM Suite?

according to:

can anyone point out big differences between BPM suite and SOA Suite?
regards chris

There are no difference.
BPM Suite 11g is deployed on top of SOA Suite 11g and it uses the Human Workflow of SOA Suite only.
You will see additional functionalities in Human Workflow if you are having a BPM suite instead of SOA Suite like Business Calendar, Protected Flex Fields, Application Roles, AMX functionalities will be enabled by default, etc.

Legacy Integration - BPM suite or SOA suite?

We have an existing legacy transaction engine, all dedicated CICS, including security (ransactions, exits, etc.). Looking to externalize and consolidate some of the business logic away from it. Databases are Oracle and DB2 on the host. Not more then five instances total.
Definitely using WebLogic, not WAS, not JBoss. Hiring and training support team starting next month. Number of processes to be consolidated/transitioned is less then 40 total. Would you recommend BPM Suite or SOA suite with BPEL PM? Any benefits of one vs the other? We do have some BPM (AL) studio experience.
Thanks in advance.

Someone from Oracle should step in on this thread when they get a chance to provide greater depth on the BPEL side and the strategic direction on both Oracle BPM and BPEL.
If you have Oracle Suite, you get Oracle Service Bus (OSB) which provides a platform that both BPEL and Oracle BPM can consume from. If you purchase Oracle BPM Suite, you get licenses for both Oracle BPM and BPEL and Oracle BPM processes can consume BPEL processes and vice versa. If you look at Oracle's plans for Oracle BPM 11g coming out sometime in the next 10 months, it appears to be a coexistance strategy leveraging the strengths of both Oracle BPM and BPEL.
My initial reaction was to say that it's not an "either/or" scenario, but the realities of training budgets and skill sets pretty much dictate that you need to focus on one or the other.
I've been doing Oracle BPM work for several years so recognize that although I am not biased, it might appear so in this thread. If you hit the BPEL forum, you'll get feedback from enthusiastic proponents of BPEL. Although I'd like to be, I'm not an expert on BPEL, but here's my take on your question.
Modeling
Oracle BPM was built with one process modeling diagram. It is simple, BPMN based and quick to learn. It supports the roles and the activities I need to build robust processes. As I hinted at in an earlier thread, I use the same diagram to explain the process to executives, managers, IT, SME and business analysts. As a business analyst, the tool is not complicated and can be learned in just a couple hours. As a developer, I use the same modeling diagram, but the tool profile I use is a robust IDE that lets me create the implementation details (objects, logic, integration to services and local testing). If I make a change as a developer, the business analyst can see the change if they look at the same process artifact (typically shared through a source control repository).
BPEL models are very useful for IT. Most times IT does not care or need to know about the roles / swimlanes and the BPEL tool does a nice job of not providing these extra artifacts. When the model has to be shown to non-technical executives, managers, SMEs and business analysts, it is typically shown in BPA. There is a round tripping interface between BPA and BPEL that the folks at Oracle can show you. Others may disagree, but I think there is a bit of a learning curve with BPA for business analysts. It has many different types of diagrams that let you see the different levels of decomposition and abstraction.
Logic
As a developer using Oracle BPM, I use templates and drag and drop to create much of my logic. Once I catalog an object it can be reused across multiple projects either by using the Project Dependency option or by importing the artifacts. I test my logic either by using the method editor debugger or at the process level.
As I create objects used in my logic using Oracle BPM, I can easily inherit attributes provided by introspected components. This means that if you have an ERP system with 138 attributes, you do not have to rebuild this object from scratch in Oracle BPM.
Probably one of BPEL's strengths is that there is not much coding inside the tool. Instead the logic mostly resides in the invoked components.
UI
End user interface screens and complex end user interaction with a variety of screens can be built inside the Oracle BPM toolset's WYSIWYG editor. The forms use the attributes of the objects described in the previous paragraph. There's a common misconception that you cannot have both client side and server side components invoked from the UI. This is simply not the case. You can use both client side and server side components to do cross field validation or provide lists for valid values.
If you're a JSP shop, you have the flexibility to instead create your forms using the Oracle BPM tag library instead of the forms editor provided.
The forms you build are automatically presented in the OOTB Workspace.
I believe BPEL uses ADF as the forms builder interface. Others on this forum or folks on the BPEL forum are far more knowledgeable on ADF than I am and can give you the comparison between UI builders.
Runtime
Oracle BPM can be installed on WebLogic. There is a common misunderstanding that Oracle BPM cannot be clustered. This is also not the case. The engine was first ported to WebLogic about 4 years ago and clustering is supported.
Integration
As I mentioned in the earlier thread, both tools can provide the integration you're looking for. Both Oracle BPM and BPEL can use OSB as the intermediary layer. Oracle BPM can expose and consume component directly if you do not have OSB.
Finally, Oracle BPM was built and architected as one complete solution with modeling, development, runtime, end user worklist and BAM capabilities built into it from the beginning 10 years ago. This integration makes the process modeling tool simple for both IT and business analysts to easily communicate using the same modeling syntax. Similarly, integration across the different parts of the product makes it easy to expose the components directly inside Oracle BPM's catalog (again - since you have SOA Suite, instead use OSB so you enable your SOA architecture). Even the end user interface (the Workspace) that exposes users' inboxes and displays the forms is OOTB and automatcally built for you by the tool.
Hope this helps,
Dan
