Kozlowski,
Thanks for the thread post..
The documents are merged because we're talking about adding additional PAGES to an actual Document (a real document, not just a piece of content). Having multiple pieces of content that make up one document isn't the direction we'd want to take. Content Item A having pages 1 through 10 and Content Item B having 11 through 20, etc - not good for us. The contribution of pages (the business process) to these documents don't allow for us to simply wait until all the pages are ready to go before putting them into the system. Since the new pages come in paper format we need the ability to add additional pages from the scanners as seemlessly as possible. The long term plan is to move to PDF but that's down the road.

Hi, we need to create the test environment from our production for oracle AP Imaging. we have soa,ipm,ucm and capture managed servers in our weblogic..
Can anyone tell me what is the best way to cloning the application from different environment, the test and production are in different physical server.
Can I just tar the weblogic file system and untar it to the new server and make the necessary changes?
Can anyone share their experiences and how to with me?
Thank in advance.
Katherine

Hi Katherine,
yes and no . You need as well weblogic + soa files as the database schemas (soa_infra, mds...).
Please refer to the AMIS Blog: https://technology.amis.nl/2011/08/11/clone-your-oracle-fmw-soa-suite-11g/

Edited by: user605253 on Sep 25, 2008 11:45 PM

Are you asking if there is a career in working with UCM?
If so, I hope so, because that's what I do!
We seem to have a lot of trouble keeping up with the workload, there always seems to be something new to work on. At the recent Oracle Open World one of our strategies was talking to other partners to make sure we had some possibilities for outsourcing because of the amount of available work. The product set is fairly large even with the ECM set so they things you can work on are varied. You have imaging work, content storage, records management, digital asset management, web content management and information rights management.
So, best of luck!

Oracle 11gR2 Express Edition on Linux Ubuntu 11.10 howto
h2. Purpose
This document outlines instructions how to install Oracle XE under Ubuntu 11.10.
Ubuntu or Debian based Linux is not on the list of supported operation systems according to the Oracle documentation at http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E17781_01/install.112/e18802/toc.htm. You may want to consider virtualization software like Oracle Virtualbox and install Oracle Enterprise Linux as a free and professional alternative to installing XE under Ubuntu. You can also download pre-build virtual machines that include Oracle XE. You can browse http://otn.oracle.com/community/developer-vm for more information.

h4. 12) References
h2. 1) Install Linux Ubuntu
The following assumes you have installed Ubuntu 11.10 Desktop Edition for AMD 64-bit, or upgraded from a previous version. Keep in mind that Oracle 11gR2 Express Edition is only available for 64-bit architecture. It is not necessarily a requirement, but I would not bother to install Oracle 11gR2 XE on a system with less than 2 GB of RAM installed. You can download Ubuntu for free at: http://www.ubuntu.com/download/ubuntu and install it using the default settings provided.
You can apply the latest OS patch-sets by clicking the power button icon in the upper right hand corner of the screen and selecting "Updates available..."
h2. 2) Remote Terminal
You will need command line access to perform the installation tasks. Select the top "Dash Home" button of the Unity toolbar and enter the word "terminal", or use CTRL-ALT-t. If you prefer to open a remote terminal session use SSH. Ubuntu does not come with a secure shell login by default. To install it, use the following command:
sudo apt-get install openssh-serverYou cannot login as root unless you set a root password using the "sudo passwd root" command. However, you can get root user access using the "sudo" command, which requires only to re-enter the password of your personal account. Access to "sudo" is controlled by the /etc/sudoers file.
The best way to establish a remote command line session as root is to login with your personal account, e.g.: ssh [email protected], and then type "sudo su -" to become root, or use "sudo <command>" to execute individual commands. If your account does not have "sudo" access you can login as root using "su - root", but will need to know the root password.
h2. 3) Install Additional Software
Oracle 11g Express Edition requires additional software that is not installed by default:
sudo apt-get install alien libaio1 unixodbch2. 4) Managing Swap Space
Oracle demands that the minimum swap space for Oracle Database XE is 2 GB (2095100 KB) or twice the size of RAM, whichever is lesser. Enter the following shell command to verify your swap space:
cat /proc/meminfo | grep -i swap
SwapCached:            0 kB
SwapTotal:       2095100 kB
SwapFree:        2095100 kBYou can increase available swap space by using a swap file as long as disk space permits. The advantage of a swap file versus a swap partition is flexible space management because you can add or delete swap space on demand as necessary. The following will create and enable an additional 1 GB swap file at system startup, located in the /home directory:
Login as root:
sudo su -Enter the following commands:
dd if=/dev/zero of=/home/swapfile bs=1024 count=1048576
mkswap /home/swapfile
swapon /home/swapfile
swapon -aCreate a backup of the original "fstab" file and add the new swap file:
cp /etc/fstab /etc/fstab.backup_`date +%N`
echo '/home/swapfile swap swap defaults 0 0' >> /etc/fstabExit from root and verify the new swap space:
exit
swapon -s
Filename                    Type          Size     Used     Priority
/dev/sda5                               partition     2095100     0     -1
/home/swapfile                          file          1048572     0     -2Swap space is not a substitute for installed RAM. Swap space is a safeguard that allows the system to move idle processes to disk before the OOM killer will begin to terminate processes in order to free up enough real memory to keep the system operational. The general rule for sizing the swap space depends on the size of installed RAM. If your system has less then 4 GB of RAM the swap space should usually be at least twice this size. If you have more than 8 GB of RAM installed you may consider to use an equal size as swap space. The more RAM you have installed, the less likely you are going to run into memory starvation, and the less likely you are going to need swap space, unless you have a bad process.
h2. 5) Modify Kernel Parameters
Oracle 11gR2 Express Edition requires the following Kernel parameters. Enter the commands exactly as shown:
Login as root:
sudo su -Cut & paste the following directly into a command shell (not a text editor):
cat > /etc/sysctl.d/60-oracle.conf <<-EOF
# Oracle 11g XE kernel parameters
fs.file-max=6815744
net.ipv4.ip_local_port_range=9000 65500
kernel.sem=250 32000 100 128
# kernel.shmmax=429496729
kernel.shmmax=107374183
EOFLoad and verify the new kernel parameters:
service procps start
sudo sysctl -q fs.file-max
sudo sysctl -q kernel.shmmax
sudo sysctl -q net.ipv4.ip_local_port_range
sudo sysctl -q kernel.sem The SHMMAX kernel parameter defines the upper memory limit of a process. It is a safeguard to stop a bad process from using all memory and causing RAM starvation. The Linux default is 32 MB. The official Oracle XE installation documentation suggests a value of 4 GB -1 bytes (429496729). Since Oracle 11g XE has a 1 GB memory limit, a smaller footprint will be a better safeguard for the complete system. Setting the SHMMAX parameter to 107374183 will be sufficient.
h2. 6) Oracle Home Directory
At the time of this writing, Enterprise Linux 6 is not supported for Oracle database yet. It is therefore not possible to confirm Oracle ext4 filesystem compatibility, which is default in Ubuntu 11. According to various information, ext4 may cause a performance problem for Oracle 11g database. The following will show you how to add a ext3 partition to your existing setup.
h3. 6.a) Resize the Root Partition
Provided you have sufficient free disk space, you should be able to resize the root partition to create an extra ext3 filesystem. Considering the 11 GB user datafile limit of the Express Edition, 18 GB should be more than enough.
You can use the free Gparted Live CD to shrink your startup volume. Gparted downloads are available at http://sourceforge.net/projects/gparted/files/gparted-live-stable. When burning the CD, pay attention to burn the raw .iso image and not the possibly "mounted" image. If you are using a virtual machine like Oracle Virtualbox, you can mount the .iso image directly. There are going to be a few prompts when the system starts from the CD, but you can press Return to accept the defaults.
When the Gparted window appears:
- Select your ext4 root partition, usually /dev/sda1
- Select the "Resize/Move" button from the toolbar.
- Enter 18000 into the "Free space following" field and press the Return key.
Be careful not not change the start of the partition!
- Click the "Resize/Move" of the dialog and then then the "Apply" toolbar button.
The process may take several minutes - do not abandon it!
- Select the new unallocated free space of ~ 18 GB and push the "New" button.
- Set the file system to "ext3" and label it "oraclexe" and click the "Add" button.
Be sure to label it oraclexe, otherwise the follow-up instructions will fail.
- Finally select "Apply from the toolbar to apply the changes.
- Quit "Gparted", select "Exit" from the desktop and choose "Reboot" to restart the system.
{code}
After the system has restarted, open a terminal command shell.
Login as root:
{code}
sudo su -
{code}
Backup "fstab" and add the UUID of the partition. The "tr" command remove the quotes:
{code}
cp /etc/fstab /etc/fstab_`date +%N`
uuid=`blkid | grep oraclexe | awk '{print $3}'`
uuid=`echo $uuid | tr -d '\042'`
echo $uuid
echo "$uuid /u01 ext3 errors=remount-ro 0 1" >> /etc/fstab
{code}
The UUID is a unique number and should look similar to:
{code}
UUID=d1db753e-b5dd-4a4c-a61e-259c69867b58
{code}
Restart the system:
{code}
reboot
{code}
Verify the success:
{code}
df -h /u01
{code}
h3. 6.b) Setup External Storage
If you prefer to setup an external drive to install Oracle XE, beware that it can be a fatal mistake to make an entry in /etc/fstab to automount your external storage device. An unavailable device in /etc/fstab will prevent a system startup and prompt for appropriate actions at the console.
The following is an example of how to prepare an external storage device to be used for Oracle 11g, including a script to automatically mount an external drive at system startup without the disadvantages of /etc/fstab. The script will also take into consideration that a device name might shift if you attach additional devices.
To find out which USB devices are connected:
{code}
sudo parted -l
{code}
Look for the device that matches your USB storage. For example: /dev/sdb1
{code}
Model: USB 2.0 Flash Disk (scsi)
Disk /dev/sdb: 2064MB
Sector size (logical/physical): 512B/512B
Partition Table: gpt
Number Start   End     Size    File system Name     Flags
1      20.5kB 1929MB 1929MB hfs+         mystick
{code}
Initialize the device using ext3 filesystem - this will erase all data. The "-c" option will check for bad blocks (read-only), "-L" is the volume label:
{code}
sudo umount /dev/sdb1
sudo mkfs.ext3 -c -L oraclexe /dev/sdb1
{code}
Install the pmount distribution package:
{code}
sudo apt-get install pmount
{code}
Login as root:
{code}
sudo su -
{code}
Cut & paste the following into the command prompt (not a text editor):
{code}
cat > /etc/init.d/oracle-mount <<-EOF
#! /bin/sh

       echo "Error unmounting \$VOL_DEVICE"
    else
       rm -f \$VOL_SYMLINK

h2. 7) ORA-00845: MEMORY_TARGET
Oracle 11gR2 XE under Ubuntu 11.10 will result in "ORA-00845: MEMORY_TARGET not support on this system" either at Oracle database startup or during the initial installation. Ubuntu 11.10 uses a new version of the "systemd" system and session manager and has migrated away from /dev/shm and other common directories in favor of /run.
There are several ways how to address the problem. You can either enable /dev/shm shared memory, or change the default memory management of Oracle 11g from AMM (Automatic Memory Management) to ASMM (Automatic Shared Memory Management) as it was in used the previous 10g version. Since AMM is one of the new features of 11g, the following will show you how to make to make AMM work.

The upper limit of shared memory under Linux is set to 50 % of the installed RAM by default. If your system has less than 2 GB of RAM installed, there is still a chance to run into ORA-00845 error if your shared memory is used by other software.
The verify available shared memory, type the following commands:
{code}
sudo df -h /run/shm
{code}
h2. 8) Installing Oracle 11gR2 Express Edition
The final release version of Oracle 11gR2 Express Edition can be downloaded for free at http://otn.oracle.com/database/express-edition/downloads. The software should automatically downloaded into the "Downloads" folder of your home directory.
Enter the following commands to unpack the installer:
{code}
cd ~/Downloads
unzip oracle-xe-11.2.0-1.0.x86_64.rpm.zip
rm oracle-xe-11.2.0-1.0.x86_64.rpm.zip
{code}
The Debian Linux based package management of Ubuntu is not compatible with the Red Hat package manager. The Oracle installer needs to be converted using the following commands:
{code}
cd ~/Downloads/Disk1
sudo alien --to-deb --scripts oracle-xe-11.2.0-1.0.x86_64.rpm
(This may take a few minutes)
rm oracle-xe-11.2.0-1.0.x86_64.rpm
{code}
The following needs to be set for compatibility:
{code}
sudo ln -s /usr/bin/awk /bin/awk
sudo mkdir /var/lock/subsys
{code}
Ubuntu uses different tools to manage services and system startup scripts. The "chkconfig" tool required by the Oracle installer is not available in Ubuntu. The following will create a file to simulate the "chkconfig" tool.
Login as root:
{code}
sudo su -
{code}
Copy & paste the following *directly* into the command prompt to create a file:
{code}
cat > /sbin/chkconfig <<-EOF
#!/bin/bash
# Oracle 11gR2 XE installer chkconfig hack for Debian based Linux (by dude)

{code}
Set a password for the Oracle account:
{code}
sudo passwd oracle
{code}
h2. 9) Post-Installation
In order to use sqlplus and other tools, the Oracle account requires specific environment variables. The following will set these variables automatically at every Oracle login:
Login as the Oracle user:
{code}
su - oracle
{code}
Copy the default account skeleton files and add the Oracle env script to .profile:
{code}
cp /etc/skel/.bash_logout ./
cp /etc/skel/.bashrc ./
cp /etc/skel/.profile ./
echo "" >>./.profile
echo '. /u01/app/oracle/product/11.2.0/xe/bin/oracle_env.sh' >>./.profile
{code}
By default, the Oracle Database XE graphical user interface is only available at the local server, but not remotely. The following will enable remote logins:
Login as the Oracle user:
{code}
su - oracle
{code}
Login as SYSDBA and execute the following:
{code}
sqlplus / as sysdba
SQL> EXEC DBMS_XDB.SETLISTENERLOCALACCESS(FALSE);
exit
{code}
See http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E17781_01/admin.112/e18585/toc.htm for more information.
h3. a) Unity desktop configurations
The Oracle XE menu under the previous Gnome Classic desktop shows several useful scripts to backup the database, start and stop the database, etc. Under the Unity based desktop this menu is not available. You can either switch to the Gnome Classic desktop as outlined in chapter 2, or perform the following steps to modify and copy the scripts as outlined below. The start and stop database scripts will also be modified to perform a progress feedback.
Login as user root:
{code}
sudo su -
{code}
Convert desktop files:
{code}
cd /usr/share/applications

{code}
You will need SYSDBA privileges and set Oracle environment variables in order to use your regular user account.
Login to your regular user account:
{code}
su - dude
{code}
Enter the folowing command:
{code}
sudo usermod -a -G dba dude
{code}
Then update your profile to automatically set the necessary Oracle environment variables:
{code}
echo "" >>./.profile
echo '. /u01/app/oracle/product/11.2.0/xe/bin/oracle_env.sh' >>./.profile
{code}
Update your Desktop folder to contain useful Oracle XE scripts:
{code}
cp /usr/share/applications/oraclexe* ~/Desktop
chmod 750 ~/Desktop/oraclexe*
{code}
To verify success re-login and try "sqlplus":
{code}

h2. 10) Tips and Troubleshooting
h3. 10. a) Port 1521 appears to be in use by another application
Error: Port 1521 appears to be in use by another application. Specify a different port.This error happens after a previously unsuccessful configuration attempt using /etc/init.d/oracle-xe configure script. The script was able to start the Listener process, but most likely failed to continue to clone the database, e.g. ORA-00845. The following should correct the problem:
Determine the oracle listener process that is already running:
{code}
$ ps -ef | grep oracle
{code}
Your output should be similar to:
{code}
oracle   19789     1 0 19:46 ?        00:00:00 /u01/app/oracle/product/11.2.0/xe/bin/tnslsnr
{code}
Then kill the process, using the appropriate process id, for instance:
{code}
$ sudo kill -9 19789
{code}
h3. 10.b) cannot touch `/var/lock/subsys/listener': No such file or directory
Starting Oracle Net Listener...touch: cannot touch `/var/lock/subsys/listener': No such file or directoryThis error occurs when you run /etc/init.d/oracle-xe configure, but failed the preinstallation step to create the /var//lock/subsys directory as outlined in chapter 8.
h3. 10.c) ORA-00845: MEMORY_TARGET
ORA-00845: MEMORY_TARGET not supported on this system See chapter 7 to enable /dev/shm and verify free space available in /run/shm
h3. 10.d) Apex ADMIN password
According to the Oracle documentation, the password for the INTERNAL and ADMIN Oracle Application Express user accounts is initially the same as the SYS and SYSTEM administrative user accounts. Well, I tried several times without success. To reset the Apex Admin password:
Login as user oracle:
{code}
su - oracle
{code}
Login as SYSDBA and type the following:
{code}
sqlplus / as sysdba
{code}
At the SQL prompt, type the following to be prompted to change the password:
{code}
SQL> @?/apex/apxxepwd.sql
exit
{code}
When done, open your browser and go to http://127.0.0.1:8080/apex
Workspace: Internal
Username: ADMIN
Password: password you set with apxxepwd.sql
I will prompt you to reset the password:
old password: password you set with apxxepwd.sql
new password: final_password
You can also login as the Apex Admin using http://127.0.0.1:8080/apex/apex_admin
h3. 10.e) SYS and SYSTEM password
Use the following commands to reset the SYS and SYSTEM passwords if necessary:
Login as the Oracle user:
{code}
su - oracle
{code}
Login as SYSDBA and type the following at the SQL prompt:
{code}
sqlplus / as sysdba
SQL> alter user sys identified by "password" account unlock;
SQL> alter user system identified by "password" account unlock;
SQL> exit
{code}
h3. 10.f) Uninstall Oracle 11g XE
The following will completely uninstall and remove Oracle 11g XE:
Open a terminal seesion and login as user root:
{code}
sudo su -
{code}
Enter the following:
{code}
/etc/init.d/oracle-xe stop
dpkg --purge oracle-xe
rm -r /u01/app
rm /etc/default/oracle-xe
update-rc.d -f oracle-xe remove
update-rc.d -f oracle-mount remove
update-rc.d -f oracle-shm remove
{code}
h3. 10.g) Reconfigure Oracle 11g XE
Type the following commands in a terminal window:
{code}
sudo /etc/init.d/oracle-xe stop
sudo rm /etc/default/oracle-xe
sudo /etc/init.d/oracle-xe configure
{code}
h3. 10.h) Gnome Classic desktop
Ubuntu 11 moved from the Gnome Classic desktop to Unity and removed the "Ubuntu Classic" login option. Unity was designed to make more efficient use of space given a limited screen size and touch screens. If you prefer to use the Gnome Classic desktop, enter the following into a terminal window:
{code}
sudo apt-get install gnome-panel
{code}
To log into the Gnome Classic desktop, select the "Gearwheel" at the login screen and select "Gnome Classic".
h3. 10.i) Unix vi cursor keys
The instructions in this tutorial do not require the use of any text editor. However, if you would like use the backspace and cursor keys in the "vi-editor", the following needs to be installed:
{code}
sudo apt-get install vim
{code}
h3. 10.j) Backup Database
In order to perform an online database backup using the supplied "Backup Database" script, the database needs to run in Archive-Log mode. This can be setup using the following commands:
Login as the Oracle user:
{code}
su - oracle
{code}
Login as SYSDBA and type the following:
{code}
sqlplus / as sysdba
SQL> shutdown immediate
SQL> startup mount
SQL> alter database archivelog;
SQL> alter database open;
SQL> exit
{code}

Excellent Blog. Thank You
Small clarification on Step **6) Oracle Home Directory, ...a) Resize the Root Partition**
Ubuntu 11.10 has Gparted available as a Ubuntu software download, DONT use that while trying the above step, instead download the ISO file from http://sourceforge.net/projects/gparted/files/gparted-live-stable/ gparted-live-0.12.0-5.iso (124.6 MB)
Burn that ISO file on a Blank DVD, reboot the Ubuntu , during startup select Boot from DVD Option if not already selected. this will take to Boot Menu Options of Gparted Live then select the first menu option, and this allows to do further action such as Re-sizing .
and once you have chosen and executed step a) . do NOT run step b) also that is "Setup External Storage"
I hope this minor clarification can avoid some confusion

Oracle UCM 11G missing Web Form Editor

Hello All,
Oracle 10G UCM provided a WebForm Editor. After installation of newer version Oracle UCM 11G we found the feature is missing.
Is there a substitute provided by Oracle in 11G version for the same?
We need to provide functionality to end users where they could go and create some forms on their own. We were thinking to use Web-Form Editor for the same, but to our surprise we found the feature is missing.
Can anyone suggest if we are missing something. Any help is appreciated.
Thanks.

Kent,
You're correct that the general UCM docs don't include that detail, but the FormEditor component readme.txt does include that info. I didn't open the readme.doc, but the readme says that there's more info in there.
From the component readme:
<snip>
Updated 2010-02-16
The HTML editor UI is now only enabled if the configuration parameter HasWebFormEditorUI is set
to true. See BUG 9218712

Hi,
I guess, during installation, you have provided as 127.0.0.1. Do you have entry in host file like (127.0.0.1 localhost).
Try by giving host name or IP address for HttpServerAddress in configuration file.

Oracle UCM fails to check in text/xml files

We have an Oracle UCM server that is failing to check in xml files over a certain size - I haven't narrowed down the size limit yet, but a <100kb file will work 100% of the time, while 300+ Kb xml files fail almost all the time, though there has been some success. Image files and zip file succeed on new check ins 100% of the time as well. We have tried with the SOAP API and the UCM new check in form - in both cases we get an empty repsonse from the server. In firefox we get the "The connection was reset" page. I'm at a loss as to explain why, but I have almost no experience with Oracle UCM. This particular server has been running for over a year happily accepting xml files of all sizes, then one day just stopped - as far as I am aware, nobody changed any
settings/upgraded anything/changed network topology.
When I look in the server output, I don't really see any indication of failure or find any mention of the file name or content title like I do when a file successfully checks in.
I have already asked the DBA to drop and rebuild the database index, started the Collection rebuild cycle (it finished successfully) and turned on the webless file store option on the defaultfilestore provider.
UCS Version : 10.1.3.3.3 (080807) (Build:7.2.2.188)
Database : Microsoft SQL Server 09.00.4035 currently using DATABASE.METADATA though I think it was at one point using Full text search, but the database was not.
Java Version:1.6.0
Please ask if there is any other information you need, but I do not have physical access to the machine, and I may not be able to reveal certain info due to privacy/security concerns.

Hello,
I think you should open an SR with support to help out. Be that as it may, here's some observations/suggestions...
* You are running a 4-year old content server. There have been numerous fixes since then. Your system may have grown to a point where it's hit one of the older issues.
* Is it possible the XML encoding may have changed? i.e. that whatever generates the XML files is now generating them slightly differently and therefore the encoding is different so check-in doesn't follow the same rules? I'd look at the first line of older files versus the new files which fail. If there's a difference, refer to KM note 978689.1 in our knowledge base.
* You say there doesn't appear to be anything in the logs, so let's increase them:
- Login to UCM as Administrator. Go to Administration->System Audit Information. Switch on the Full Verbose Tracing checkbox. In the Active Sections field, put in:
systemdatabase - this will show you what queries and inserts are made to the database and should show whether there's a problem at that level.
requestaudit - this shows you the requests as they come in, as well as a roundup of all requests every 2 minutes. If you see large amounts of time being taken on requests, your server could be creaking because of resources.
publish - tells you about publishing related issues, most XML file check-ins are related to this.
- Try to check in a file which should fail.
- Switch off verbose logging (see above) to reduce overhead.
If the OS is Windows then the <install>/config.cfg file needs to have UseRedirectedOutput=true in order to generate a log file for this tracing. On Windows the file is the <install>/bin/IdcServerNT.log file. (if the above config is set)
On *nix it is in the <install>/etc/log file (notice that there is no file extension on the file)
If none of the logs helps you, an SR is probably in order.
Regards,
Frank.

Oracle UCM Production instance

we are proposing the oracle UCM 11g Solution to one of my client,
here i have doubt about the list of products, please correct us?
1) Oracle Database
2) Oracle Weblogic Server
3) Oracle UCM
4) Oracle HTTP Server???????????? is this required?
and we are giving the solution architecture to the client? please guide me if you have any suggestions regarding this
and Hardware requirements for this also suggest me?
we are implementing the UCM for the first time............
Thanks for your time....
Edited by: ngsankar on Jun 13, 2011 9:34 AM

Weblogic Server is a part of Oracle UCM license - in the restricted mode to host UCM (you will need it for 11g, as it is a J2EE application). So, unless you want to use it for other apps as well, it is not needed. HTTP Server is definitely not needed - Weblogic Server should contain a web server, if you need one, or you can go with another web server like Apache.
As for the solution architecture, it quite a subtle art and as you give absolutely no details, I'm afraid it is quite difficult to answer anything. You can start with sizing - product management released (alas, internally) a sizing tool, which can answer you a question how many CPUs of UCM (application server layer) are needed. It is based on the number of concurrent users and workload they produce (GUI, search/document retrieve, checkins, conversions to PDF, conversions to multimedia formats). Once you have this, you need to consider high-availability (a cluster in one location) and disaster recovery (backup-restore or even geo clustering). There is no formula to give you the right answer, but if you require HA, you might need RAC (Real Application Clusters) at the DB layer - app layer might be cluster by Weblogic and you might also need a load balancer. For DR, you might use database options (partitioning, DataGuard). Do not forget to consider the storage (even under database)! Especially, for large storage requirements (hundreds of TB and more) it can make your project much cheaper if you use the correct storage policy (using database ASM or HSM of filesystems such as ZFS or QFS).
Recommended HW - especially, if you need clustering, go with installation on Linux or Solaris. This will most likely lead to servers on Intel. You may go with any almost any proposal by a HW vendor of that kind (Sun Fire or blades). Just put there enough memory (12 GB at least per 2 cores of CPU). For multicore and multiprocessor servers, use Oracle VM or Solaris Zones to scale to your required number of CPUs of UCM and database (a rule of thumb: you will need half to two thirds CPUs of database compared to the number of UCM's CPUs).
However, keep in mind you might need to fine tune the generic architecture to your client's needs (e.g if you have heavy conversions)

Oracle UCM - Digital Libray?

Hi,
Is Oracle UCM support Digital Library?
Digital Library should support OAI-PMH and Z39.50 protocols. I am not sure if Oracle UCM (Webcenter content) would support this.
If anybody know this please help me with related page or site where I can find more information.
Thanks
Sravan

Sorry for the delayed response. If you are still looking for your answer, please read on...
AXF layer provide a link between EBiz Suite and UCM adapter. UCM-EBS Adapter and AXF are complimentary components that provide complete EBS-UCM integration. Though technically you can use UCM-EBS Adapter independently, I am not sure if it will achieve your objective.
Are you facing any problem in AXF installation?

Oracle UCM Release Date - Workflow

In Oracle UCM the release date is shown at the date and time the content enters workflow. Is there an easy way to update the release date field with the date that the content is approved?. I am trying to report on the date that the content item was approved in the workflow, not when it entered the workflow.
Does anyone know of an easy way to do this. Is there any way in workflow to write out to a custom metadata field the date and time the content was approved?
Thanks in advance for your help with this.
Data_Bitz

What you're probably seeing is actually "dInDate" rather than "dReleaseDate".
On the content info page the revisions table at the bottom has an (intentionally) mislabled column called "release date" that actually displays dInDate
dInDate is when the content item was submitted.
dReleaseDate is when the content item is released from all the workflow processing and indexing into the general collection.
It is possible to have dReleaseDate set during workflow but only if you set wfReleaseDocument=1 in the workflow script(s).
So report on dReleaseDate and ignore what's in the revisions table.
Out of the box, UCM keeps dInDate as the date that you checked in the file. However, we have a product, "Workflow Solution Set" that updates the dInDate to the date that the item is released from workflow and thereby shows up in the revisions table and any other reports as the time the doc was actually approved for consumption. Check out our Workflow Solution Set product (for 10g and 11g) here: http://bit.ly/95Rocu
FYI: you can see what is getting loaded in that table by appending "&IsJava=1" to the URL and taking a look at the REVISION_HISTORY result set.
hope this helps
