KM installation scenario

Hi all,
I'm quite new to KM. We want to use KM & Content management
to store customers documents and so on. But where are this data stored ? Is it possible to store them outside the computer where portal resides ? If so how ? (We're running HP-UX and I dont mean here solution where space from disk field is mapped to host)
Thanks, a lot
Best Regards, Miroslav Koskar

Hi Miroslav
Have you looked at creating a File System Repository? This can be found in System Administration > System Configuration > Content Management > Reposity Managers File System Repository.
This link should also help http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/e3/92322ab24e11d5993800508b6b8b11/frameset.htm
You documents can be kept away from the portal server and you can organise them with Taxonomies!
Hope this helps?
Phil

Please demystify the "multiple computer" installation scenario.

An Apple employee told me I can buy Lion once and install it on all the computers in the home (we have four Macs).
I purchased and installed Lion on my computer BEFORE I saw the nifty trick about burning the InstallESD.dmg to a DVD to make installing on the other computers much easier. With that option gone, it seems the only way to install it on another family member Mac is to use their Mac and log in to the App Store with MY account and then it wants to verify MY credit card info before proceeding with a download. Does this mean that my App Store account is forever going to be linked with these other family members' Macs and now they're going to be able to download stuff from the App Store and bill it to my credit card? I do not like this scenario one bit and for the life of me can't find a logical explanation to how this whole process works from anywhere on Apple's website and their "live chat support" is just as clueless. Please advise.
BTW, I have tried to re-download the installer to my computer so I can copy it to the DVD, but the App Store won't let me. It simply says "INSTALLED" and there's nothing else I can do!

Only if you do not log out of your MAS account. Once you log out, they won't be able to purchase anything on your account.

There's a little trick to it. Open MAS, then while holding down the Option key click Purchases. The "installed" button will change to "install" and you'll be able to download it again.

How do I view and disable unwanted crap in the CS5 installer

I'm running the trial installer, and I noticed Adobe has become even more creative with hiding away all its silent-and-utterly-unnecessary payloads. In addition to defining required components in the proxy.xml files like for CS3 and CS4, there's now also a "Media_db.db" SQLite3 database with all payloads and dependencies that needs to be modified... and in the mean time no one bothered to actually fix the installer to offer us ways to not install things we don't want in the slightest.
To adobe in general: I want to install what *I* want to install, not what you want to install on my computers. I don't want AIR, and Media Player, and your own flavour of a JRE, and... well basically of the 1.5Gb your Photoshop CS5 installer wants me to install, I only need 500Mb (namely: photoshop, cmap, type support, xmp and the required fonts and color profiles). How do I turn the rest of the payloads off?
Can we get someone who wrote the installer for this -quite frankly wonderful- program on the line so that they can tell us all how we can actually control the install process so that it does NOT install all the stuff Adobe wants to force onto our systems?

Hello. I’m the engineering manager for the Creative Suite and also responsible for the installation technology.
There’s lots of topics here, so let me try to address them one at a time.
First, our guiding principle for CS5 installers was to fix the top call generators for CS4 so that the installer succeeded more frequently. In addition, we made some significant architectural changes to better enable volume deployment scenarios. There is still a long way to go before the installers are perfect; but, gauging from the overall number of customer escalations over the past days since shipping we did succeed at dramatically reducing the number of customer escalations. Volume deployment tools are not yet released and we’ll see if those help volume deployment scenarios shortly. I’m not sure from where you heard the installers were going to be revamped from the bottom up. That’s never been the plan.
Adobe has become even more creative with hiding away all its silent-and-utterly-unnecessary payloads
The intent is to make the most common installation scenarios very simple, with a second goal to give the user as much configurability as we safely can. We’re not actually *trying* to hide anything. You can find the list of payloads and their use here:
http://blogs.adobe.com/OOBE/2010/05/cs5_payloads.html
The actual way that dependencies are determined is that each product lists its own subcomponents and how strong of a dependency that product has on each subcomponent. Subcomponents that are deemed “Critical” or “Required” do not show up as deselectable. Subcomponents that are “Recommended” or “Optional” do show up as deselectable. It sounds like the root disagreement here is the definition of what payloads should be Critical or Required vs. Recommended or Optional. Here’s the definition of the different dependency levels:
Critical –The product will not successfully launch without this payload.
Required - Without this payload the product’s primary functionality will not work as expected. The trick is defining what “primary functionality” means. Each product defines this on their own.
Recommended – Tertiary functionality does not work if this payload is not deployed.
Optional – There is no interactivity between the component and the product. Not installing the component should not adversely affect the product.
For Photoshop CS5, the installer includes six Recommended or Optional payloads: Extension Manager, ExtendScript Toolkit, Device Central, AIR, Media Player, and Fonts Recommended. Deselecting any one of them should result in that component NOT being installed. I just ran the Photoshop CS5 installer on a Windows XP system after deselecting each one of those six components and verified that indeed none of them were installed. (Note, I already had AIR on the system so I cannot really verify that AIR didn’t get installed in this particular install instance.)
Even deselecting all six leaves almost 1.5 GB to be installed. One could easily argue that many payloads marked as Critical or Required should instead be Recommended, such as Bridge. You have a valid point there.
The JRE point is an interesting one. In CS4 there were multiple copies (6, if memory serves) of the JRE being installed. Customers (and I) just didn’t know about it. Many different products just included the JRE as part of their product folder. In fact, Dreamweaver still does this today. We’ve pulled the other copies into one common payload. So now there are only two copies of the JRE being installed, the common one and the Dreamweaver one. The reason we tried to reduce the number of JREs installed is to reduce the cost in disk space to the customer as well as be able to more adequately address security vulnerabilities if one should occur within the JRE. These are all just normal JREs from Sun and haven’t been tweaked in any way; but, we need a known version to ensure the products keep running properly. If we just leverage the system version (on Mac) or a common version across the system (on Win) then we’ve encountered numerous customer escalations when the JRE is updated on that system.
Bridge in the Suite install case is also interesting. Because Photoshop has a Required dependency on Bridge, if you deselect Bridge with another product but then have Photoshop selected for install then Bridge will still be installed.
Can we get someone who wrote the installer for this -quite frankly wonderful- program on the line so that they can tell us all how we can actually control the install process so that it does NOT install all the stuff Adobe wants to force onto our systems?
I’ll try to dig up some instructions. Using the upcoming enterprise deployment toolkit is one method; but, that’s not going to be available for at least a few more weeks. It may take a few days to post instructions since we have to test the instructions before posting them. Note also that the product teams have not tested any configuration where the Critical and Required payloads are not installed, so the products may not function properly.
When I do get the instructions I’ll post them at this blog:

ECC5 Installation option Distributed Installation

Hi
I am installing ECC5 on Windows 2003 with oracle 10g,During installation I have selected distributed installation (ABAP+JAVA).
Please could anyone tell me whether we can install abap+java on single system by selecting distributed installation option in sapinst.
Thanks
Sukrut S

Hi,
whether we can install abap+java on single system by selecting distributed installation option in sapinst.
With Distributed Installation option one can install separate SAP System Components such as Central Instance with Central Services Instance, Database Instance, etc. on separate hosts.
In ABAP+JAVA stack installation scenario, the installation variants will be consists of ABAP installation and the installation of the Java Add-In. That You can install on Single System which is having sufficient resource for the same.
Please refer [these installation guides|https://websmp209.sap-ag.de/~sapidb/011000358700002599162004E] to get more detailed information.

Problems Post installation - Oracle 8i and Forms 6i

Hello,
This is with respect to the two issues I am encountering in Oracle. Kindly somebody help with these issues as it is urgent.
PLEASE GO THROUGH EACH AND EVERY POINT BEFORE ARRIVING AT A CONCLUSION
1. With the Post Oracle database installation
2. Oracle forms connectivity to the Oracle database (FORMS WAS INSTALLED PRIOR TO ORACLE INSTALLATION)
I will start with the 1st issue (Post Oracle database installation)
Steps A01
1. I unistalled an existing version 8.1.7 using the steps mentioned in the following link (http://www.oracle-base.com/articles/misc/ManualOracleUninstall.php)
2. I chose typical installation (default, all the rest of installation methods were default)
3. Gave SID as ORCL_DB
4. Created database by installation
5. connected to SYS using default password - no problem
6. Created another user usr01 and granted necessary privileges Was able to logon to the database using usr01. No problem
But if I do a restart of the machine and then I am encountering an error ORA-27101: shared memory realm does not exist after which I am unable to connect to the database.
##### (PLEASE NOTE THAT I AM ABLE TO CONNECT TO ORACLE FOR THE FIRST TIME WITHOUT ANY PROBLEMS. THE ERROR IS THROWN IF WE REBOOT THE MACHINE AND TRY TO CONNECT TO ORACLE) ###
The steps I tried to troubleshoot this
a. Checked the oracle network admin directory. All the config files are there (TNSNAMES.ORA, SQLNET.ORA, LISTNER.ORA)
b. did a tnsping
c:\tnsping ORCL_DB
NO PROBLEM WITH THAT. GETTING OK FOR THE PING
c. Checked the oracle registries.
Could find all these entries have the correct value:
ORACLE_HOME - C:\ORACLE
ORACLE_SID - ORCL_DB
ORACLE_BASE - c:\oracle
There were no extra slash or extra character with the registry entries.
Now the the post forms installation scenario
Steps A02 (FORMS WAS INSTALLED PRIOR TO ORACLE INSTALLATION)
1. Installed forms (directory c:\orant)
Steps A03
1. Copied the contents tnsnames.ora file entries from oracle\network\admin directory to the orant\net80\admin\tnsnames.ora file
2. Tried to connect to oracle forms (user : usr01, database : ORCL_DB).
Got error : ORA-12154: TNS:could not resolve service name
3. Created an environment variable : tns_admin with value c:/oracle/network/admin. Tried to connect again
Now getting another error : unable to connect to the destination : ora-12203 (unable to connect to destination)
I have installed forms and oracle in separate directories. Can somebody help to resolve these issues?
Thanks in advance
Chanaya

SAP NetWeaver 7.30 High-Availability installation without MSCS

Hi all,
Do we have any option to install SAP NetWeaver 7.30 High-Availability System on the third-party cluster solution, except for MS Cluster Service?
I tried to install the first cluster node without MSCS configuration, however, sapinst.exe checks whether we already set up MSCS on this node, then installer aborted.
I'd like to know the way to disable this checks. (Or, way to mimic the installer as if MSCS cluster configuration was done.)
If unavailable, I have to install MSCS first, and SAP NetWeaver, then also have to uninstall MSCS instead of out cluster software;
It seems to me no sense.
Best regards,

Hi Peter,
Thanks for your quick response.
It is disappointed for me that HA Installation is tightly combined with MSCS.
Do we have a way to migrate from other installation scenario to High-Availability?
For example, once we install ASCS instance as distributed system, then migrate
it for High-Availability usage, leveraged by profile updates and so on?
I'm not sure how High-Availability installation is different from other installation
scenario except for installation path and hostname to be used for connection.
Best regards,

Workplace Installation Error: DB instance not found

Hello all,
While installing our Developer Workplace SR2 on our workstation, we encountered an error indicating that the database instance is not found.
FYI, we were able to successfully install two without the problem . It appears that during the installation, it was able to access the database - dropping the said instance - but failed in creating the database instance afterward.
Will reward points for helpful answers.

Error! Connection failed to node BASP-BMZMT1S-D for database J2E: database instance not found

Hello Juan,
Thanks for the prompt response.
As I reviewed the sequence of the installation, it appears that this could be an installation bug. The sequence does not make sense at all - it drops the database instance and starts a session after that - thus, resulting into the error.
The option I chose during installation is to recreate the default DB instance which is "J2E" that is made available during the MaxDB installation. Thus, it should recreate the "J2E" instance after the dropping of which -- this appears to be missing in the entire sequence.
The Resoultion/Workaround
Well, nothing amazing - but I just chose to make a different DB instance instead of using the existing J2E instance from MaxDB (i.e. DB1). In this approach, it does not have to drop the instance but instead create a NEW instance.
Not a definitive solution but a mere, common sense workaround. But I hope this helps those who has encountered the same issue through the same installation scenario.
Regards,
Jan

Installation of "Oracle BPEL Process Manager" (newbie)

Hello,
I need to evaluate the "Oracle BPEL Process Manager" for a seminar at my university.
I am completely new to the BPEL topic and I need some help installing the "BPEL Process Manage".
1) I downloaded the file "Oracle BPEL Process Manager (10.1.3.1.0)" for x86 Windows. 340 MB ; filename: "soa_windows_x86_bpel_101310.zip"
2) In the Install Guide of that package it says there are two installation scenarios:
■ Scenario 1: Oracle BPEL Process Manager with Oracle SOA Suite
■ Scenario 2: Oracle BPEL Process Manager for OracleAS Middle Tier
I think the best and easiest (and smallest?) for me is the first one "with Oracle SOA Suite". But the Guide I have is only for the second Scenario.
It says the first one would be explained in the guide "Oracle Application Server 10g Release 3 (10.1.3.1.0) Installation Guide", but there's nothing said about BPEL ! ??
Do I have to download the complete "Oracle SOA Suite 10g (10.1.3.x)" ?!
Or can I just try to execute the setup of my "Oracle BPEL Process Manager (10.1.3.1.0)" without a guide?
I'm really confused here and help would be much appreciated.
regards

that segment will lead for installatoin of the SOA with the datbase Lite. Can Lite database work for the tutorals or cause problems for the SOA 10.1.3.4 upgrade etc?? I guess there may be scripts built not for the lite db in the examples and the upgrade.Question, what would be the Lite database name? I have loaded SOA 10.1.3.1 with Olite. Now try to upgrade it to SOA 10.1.3.4.
the part of the upgrade is to run the upgrade scritps. Since the db is lite, we have to use msql via jdbc connection. But I have no idea what's the db name created under 10.1.3.1. Checked ORACLE_HOME/install/readme, there seem no such info. it could be the instance name in the readme. But had it tried, no work.

No need to do anything. Having this taken care of right now. Reverting you guys back right now. The reason this happened is because you tested the last IMG update and were on the list to test this one but it was canceled.
Should be back to 1.6.2 now. Private message me if you are still having any issues so I can refresh your boxes.

Installation Questions Documaker 12.3 Enterprise Edition

We are looking to install Documaker 12.3 Enterprise Edition and have the following installation questions:
When installing Documaker can we have our own VM in our own OU for the WAS application servers? This will make maintenance easier on our side. There doesn’t seem to be anything in the documentation saying this is a good or a bad idea.
Our WAS Admins would like to know what the scripts in the Post-Setup documentation actually do. Is it possible to use our existing scripting environment to build the necessary pieces instead of using scripts from the documaker install? If it’s not possible, can we get a look at the documaker scripts before we run them?
We would like to know if WAS 8.5 is supported, or if version 7.0.0.27 in the requirements pdf is the only version supported?

When installing Documaker can we have our own VM in our own OU for the WAS application servers? This will make maintenance easier on our side. There doesn’t seem to be anything in the documentation saying this is a good or a bad idea.
The typical installation scenario is to have 3 tiers - application (WAS), application (Documaker), and data. WAS tiers host web applications (Dashboard, Administrator, Interactive) as well as providing database connection pools and JMS queues for messaging - it is expected that the WAS environment is a clustered environment and that the applications are deployed to the cluster members, which can be physical or virtual. For the Documaker application server, these can be physical or virtual as well. It's recommended to install Documaker on single-purposes environments, however there's nothing to prevent you from doing otherwise. The Documaker applications are self-contained JVMs and can be tuned accordingly.
Our WAS Admins would like to know what the scripts in the Post-Setup documentation actually do. Is it possible to use our existing scripting environment to build the necessary pieces instead of using scripts from the documaker install? If it’s not possible, can we get a look at the documaker scripts before we run them?
The installation process (currently) writes the scripts according to responses provided during the installation process. The scripts can be reviewed/modified prior to execution.
We would like to know if WAS 8.5 is supported, or if version 7.0.0.27 in the requirements pdf is the only version supported?
The official supported version of WAS is 7.0.0.27, however WAS 8.5 may be suitable (I believe there might be a fix pack requirement there - would recommend you submit a question to Oracle Support for verification).

Installation options - NW 2004 s

Hi all ,
We are planning to installation of NW 2004s
For the installation for our sand box , we have two hosts
<b>host 1 - windows 2003 server
host2 - HP-UX ( on host2 we have oracle rdbms software is already installed and running )</b> .
The initial plan was to install SCS, CI on host1 and DB instance on host 2 . I wanted to know is this still possible .If this not possible , can I have an installation scenario with SCS , CI , DB instance on Windows host and connecting to oracle running on HP UX host ?
Thanks
Aneez

Thanks for the Answers .
Just a confirmation I need ...
Installation with SCS , CI on host 1 ( windows 2003 server ) connecting to Oracle running on HP -UX host . Is that ok ? What would you call this kind of installation ..is it single server or distributed installation ?

Installation guides of BizTalk 2013

Hello All,
I do see the installation documents of "Installing BizTalk Server 2013 and BAM in a Multi-Computer Environment.docx" and "Upgrading to BizTalk Server 2013 from BizTalk Server 2010-2009.docx" at
Installation Guides Related to BizTalk Server 2013. But I'm trying to find "Installing BizTalk Server 2013 on Windows Server 2012.docx" similar to what is available for BizTalk
2010 "Installing BizTalk Server 2010 on Windows Server 2008 R2 and 2008.docx".
I see other helpful sites like
Sandro's BizTalk Server Installation Scenario, but I'm also looking for word document on it.
Thanks
Bhava

There is no specific guide for installing BizTalk Server 2013 on Windows Server 2012. The guides have been refactored to eliminate these distinctions.
So long as you meet the minimum OS requirements:
Windows Server 2012, Windows Server 2008 R2 SP1, Windows 7 SP1, Windows 8
the installation process is essentially the same.
I think the UI experiance from Windows Server 2003 -> 2008 was different enough to warrent a separate guide. 2008 -> 2012, not so much.

How can I contact an installation engineer prior t...

Been trying to find a link on the website for the installation engineer as I have a challenging installation scenario.
Any ideas on how to do this?
I need the new line underground through a duct already in place, but need to check a few things first.
All thoughts welcome!
Thanks in advance.

If you have a BT job number for the installation, ring BT and ask them if they can get the Openreach engineer to call you at home, prior to install.
If you don't have a job number or order number, it's academic....you havn't ordered anything.

Grid infra 11gR2 installation help required

sir
i have some problem.do not know how to solve it?
i need to install grid infrastructure advanced installation.
scenario and question:
i have a raw(74GB) device under ASM on 192.168.1.13.but how to put it into the cluster its not under OCFS2,what to do(under OEL5.4)?
and in another machine(with ip 192.168.1.30) i want to load 11gR2 grid as well as 11gR2 db but how to qualify it to the cluster-aware ASM-ocfs2 disk??i had a a partition /dev/sda3 as LVM group with two mounted partion /ASM1 and /ASM2 as empty ext3 in this machine.what to do?

To identify the storage requirements for using Automatic Storage Management, you must determine the number of devices and the amount of free disk space that you require. To complete this task:
1.     Determine whether you want to use Automatic Storage Management for Oracle Database files, recovery files, or both.
Note:
You do not have to use the same storage mechanism for , Oracle Database files, and recovery files. You can use a file system for one file type and Automatic Storage Management for the other.
If you choose to enable automated backups and you do not have a shared file system available, then you must choose Automatic Storage Management for recovery file storage.
If you plan to enable automated backups during the installation, then you can choose Automatic Storage Management as the storage mechanism for recovery files by specifying an Automatic Storage Management disk group for the fast recovery area. Depending on how you choose to create a database during the installation, you have the following options:
o     If you select an installation method that runs Oracle Automatic Storage Management Configuration Assistant in interactive mode, then you can decide whether you want to use the same Automatic Storage Management disk group for database files and recovery files, or you can choose to use different disk groups for each file type. Ideally, you should create separate Automatic Storage Management disk groups for data files and for recovery files.
The same choice is available to you if you use Oracle Database Configuration Assistant after the installation to create a database.
o     If you select an installation type that runs Oracle Automatic Storage Management Configuration Assistant in silent or response file mode, then you must use the same Automatic Storage Management disk group for data files and recovery files.
2.     Choose the Automatic Storage Management redundancy level that you want to use for each Automatic Storage Management disk group that you create.
The redundancy level that you choose for the Automatic Storage Management disk group determines how Automatic Storage Management mirrors files in the disk group and determines the number of disks and amount of disk space that you require, as follows:
o     External redundancy
This option does not allow Automatic Storage Management to mirror the contents of the disk group. Oracle recommends that you select this redundancy level either when the disk group contains devices, such as RAID devices, that provide their own data protection or when the database does not require an uninterrupted access to data.
o     Normal redundancy
To optimize performance and reliability in a normal redundancy disk group, Automatic Storage Management uses two-way mirroring for data files and three-way mirroring for control files, by default. In addition, you can choose the mirroring characteristics for individual files in a disk group. Alternatively, you can use two-way mirroring or no mirroring.
A normal redundancy disk group requires a minimum of two failure groups (or two disk devices) if you are using two-way mirroring. The effective disk space in a normal redundancy disk group is half the sum of the disk space in all of its devices.
For most installations, Oracle recommends that you use normal redundancy disk groups.
o     High redundancy
The contents of the disk group are three-way mirrored by default. To create a disk group with high redundancy, you must specify at least three failure groups (a minimum of 3 devices).
Although high-redundancy disk groups provide a high level of data protection, you must consider the higher cost of additional storage devices before deciding to use this redundancy level.
3.     Determine the total amount of disk space that you require for the database files and recovery files.
If an Automatic Storage Management instance is already running on the system, then you can use an existing disk group to meet these storage requirements. If necessary, you can add disks to an existing disk group during the installation.
Use the following table to determine the minimum number of disks and the minimum disk space requirements for the installation:
Redundancy Level     Minimum Number of Disks     Data Files     Recovery Files     Both File Types
External     1     1.8 GB     3.6 GB     5.4 GB
Normal     2     3.6 GB     7.2 GB     10.8 GB
High     3     5.4 GB     10.8 GB     16.2 GB
4.     Optionally, identify failure groups for the Automatic Storage Management disk group devices.
If you intend to use a normal or high redundancy disk group, then you can further protect the database against hardware failure by associating a set of disk devices in a custom failure group. By default, each device comprises its failure group. However, if two disk devices in a normal redundancy disk group are attached to the same SCSI controller, then the disk group becomes unavailable if the controller fails. The controller in this example is a single point of failure.
To avoid failures of this type, you can use two SCSI controllers, each with two disks, and define a failure group for the disks attached to each controller. This configuration would enable the disk group to tolerate the failure of one SCSI controller.
Note:
If you define custom failure groups, then you must specify a minimum of two failure groups for normal redundancy disk groups and three failure groups for high redundancy disk groups.
5.     If you are sure that a suitable disk group does not exist on the system, then install or identify appropriate disk devices to add to a new disk group. Apply the following guidelines when identifying appropriate disk devices:
o     The disk devices must be owned by the user performing the grid installation.
o     All the devices in an Automatic Storage Management disk group should be the same size and have the same performance characteristics.
o     Do not specify multiple partitions on a single physical disk as a disk group device. Automatic Storage Management expects each disk group device to be on a separate physical disk.
o     Oracle does not recommend the use of a logical volume as a device in Automatic Storage Management because the logical volume is capable of hiding the physical disk architecture which prevents Automatic Storage Management from optimizing I/O across physical devices.
