Patching in Oracle EBS

What is the step -by -step procedure or Patch analysis of Patch No:9958926 ?

Hi,
Do I have to shutdown the Apps Tier or DB Tier while I am making a Patch analysis using a tool Patch Wizard?
No.
Does it makes it any issue if i do so ?
Patch analysis does not applies the binaries or codings into the EBS instance, it just produces you the report of what files will be affected and so on.
For additional information please refer:
http://allappsdba.blogspot.com/2012/04/patch-impact-analysis-in-oracle.html
What are the major things we need to know as an apps dba in system admin?
For normal routine activities, some of the concerns would be:
- Installation
- Patching
- Cloning
- CM administration
- Archiving, Purging and retention of log/output files (Maintenance)
and so on.

HTTP Server Patch - 4393827 for Oracle EBS 11i

Hi,
Our env is Oracle EBS 11i (11.5.10) + CU2 +ATG RUP6. We are currently on 9.2.0.8.0
I am currently applying Minimum Baseline Patches for extended support - +Patch Requirements for Extended Support of Oracle E-Business Suite Release 11.5.10 [ID 883202.1]+.
For the HTTP Server Patch - 4393827 do I need to apply patches for all the below components? It prompted me 4 times to apply the patch for each component.
OHS_1.0.2.2 component
MODPLSQL component
Webcache_1.0.2.2
DB_8.1.7.4
Rgds,
Thiru

Thanks.
I applied HTTP Server Patch - 4393827 in my upgraded instance 11.5.10 CU2ATG RUP6.
Now the Apache version is:
Server version: Oracle HTTP Server Powered by Apache/1.3.19 (Win32)
Server built: Jun 14 2005 15:26:57 (iAS 1.0.2.2.2 rollup 5)
While applying HTTP Server Patch - 4393827, I was prompted to enter Y or N to apply patch for the following components individually. I had the option to enter N also.
OHS_1.0.2.2 component
MODPLSQL component
Webcache_1.0.2.2 component
DB_8.1.7.4 component
I entered Y(Yes) for all the components and the patching was successful for all the components.
I am doubtful about the DB_8.1.7.4 component patch. Should I say Y to this also?. Since my Instance is on 9.2.0.8.0 is it required to apply this component (DB_8.1.7.4 component) also?

How to download Oracle EBS patch to import source file into FDQM

Hello Experts,
I am not able to find patches for importing source file from Oracle EBS into FDQM.Actually I have HFM,FDQM,ESSBASE,Planning,erp,epm,calculationManager in my virtual machine.I didn't Install Oracle EBS
Please tell me how to import source file from Oracle EBS like Flatfile from HFM into FDQM and share me what I need to install regarding EBS to Import and register the EBS adapters.It's urgent please share asap.
Thanks in advance.....

There are not any EBS Adapters for FDM.
If you are just importing a source file from EBS, you would need to setup an import format to parse the source file in FDm and then assign the import format to the location that will be used to load the target system and run the import process.
If you are looking to pull directly from EBS, you would need to use ERP Integrator (ERPi) to connect to oracle EBS and then use the ERPI adpater in FDM to pull the data from ERPI into FDM.
Can you be specific on what you are looking to do?

Oracle EBS Customization Patch Impact Analysis Tool

Hi All
There are times when you need to modify Oracle source code to achieve custom functionality. This will ideally happen once you receive a SCR approval from oracle(source code request approval).
The pitfall in this approach is that you will need to monitor the modified files very carefully for impacts. I have built a tool that is integrated with adpatch to monitor and warn of any potential impacts.
Some of you may be interested. If you have any suggestions for improvement please let me know.
http://applikast.blogspot.com/2011/08/oracle-ebs-customization-patch-impact.html
kind Regards,
Arun.

hi Hussein,
This is not certified by Oracle. This is a tool that I built on the current project when we had a situation where we got an SCR from oracle. We made modifications and they got overridden by a patch. This tool was built to prevent any such situations post go-live given that the customization was extremely crticial and it has kept us safe so far.
On a side note I had posted a couple of links to other tools that I had built but those posts seem to have been removed. Do you know why this might have happened? I am only trying to share my knowledge and tools in a broader community to help them. One of the links that has been taken off is also posted on the OAUG Configsyg site but the moderators over here seem to be a bit reluctant to let it remain. I don't quite know why.
Thanks,
Arun.

HTTP check RW-5001 - Oracle EBS 12.1.1 Rapidwiz on RHEL 5 VMWARE Fusion

Dear All,
I have been attempting to install Oracle EBS 12.1.1 Using Rapidwiz on RHEL 5 VMWARE Fusion for the past month, i have run through the install on a few occaisions now just to ensure that i have followed all the pre-reqs correctly and also set up the guest OS as described in several posts including (http://www.oraclenerd.com/2009/12/ebs-install-guide-part-1.html, http://gerardnico.com/wiki/ebs/installation and always refering back to My Oracle Support Doc ID 761566.1: Oracle Applications Installation and Upgrade Notes Release 12 (12.1.1) for Linux x86-64.
I have installed (prior to running rapidwiz) the oracle recommended patch p6078836_101330_LINUX.zip and confirmed from the install that the Database listener and Database are up and running (checked by running the db.env script and running addbctl.sh and addlnctl.sh respectively). However, the rapid install completes with an error for HTTP, java, Login Page, Help files, in the post intall checks.
The error displayed for the HTTP check RW-50015: Error: - HTTP Listener is not responding. The service might not have started on the port yet. Please check the service and use the retry button.

I'm not a DBA and i'm just starting out to learn how ebusiness suite is installed and how the applications run in parralel to the database. (my history of oracle ebs front end development and functional support)
I know there are a few posts out there within these forums that go into some details on what this issue may be, however, i cannot find any that specifically address my type of install and OS setup, and sometimes find it hard to understand the terminology and techniques used to diagnose these kinds of issues.
What i'm looking for is for some help in diagnosing and trouble shooting my issue, i will be happy to provide any output that is required to help address the issue and will be online regularly until i can have this issue resolved.
So, if you can help, please let me know where we can start.
Many thanks

Hi All,
Problem solved, although not on RHEL 5. I started over with a clean install of OEL 5.4, completed all the pre-reqs and applied reccommended patching, install completed fine, not experienced same issues with http. Differing install steps;
A) Selected different Port pool - 67 instead of 55
B) in OEL 5 when installing, if gives you the option to turn off SELINUX, which i compelted.
C) Checking the OS, i noticed the rpm versions were quite different (probably somewhat obvious, but im not sure if this had an impact)
Although, this was a fristrating set up, i have (i think) learnt a bit more about linux and installing ebs.
Thanks all for your guidance and help

Oracle EBS R12 Advice

Hey Community,
I have 2 years of experience as an Apps DBA. I recently took a new job working under a consultant as jr. apps dba. Well the consultant was fired and well now I'm the only dba. So far things are great and I'm really enjoying this challenge. I have been studying my behind off daily to catch up on a lot of stuff that is new to me. I had a few questions I would like to ask and get advice from experts here.
One of my questions are what are some daily tasks I need to do as an apps dba? This is a fairly new shop and right now, there isn't any procedures on doing much. I am creating procedures now. Right now I just check to make sure the applications are up, if they are down, I go from there. We have a core dba so I don't have to do much on the database side. I need info for the application side.
Also, I don't know RAC but will have to learn it. I do have my own home environment. I know how to install Oracle EBS finally. At the moment, I am upgrading my database to 11.2.0.3 and after that I will upgrade my applications to 12.1.3 and then the latest version. After I complete these tasks, I am going to take time to learn as much as I can about RAC, then I will do my own implementation of RAC. I will then need to install Oracle EBS on RAC (Not sure how to do that yet) I also need to learn to clone on RAC, Patch on RAC and how to maintain EBS on RAC. If you all could give me any documentation, videos, or anything else I can study it would be greatly appreciated.
Also do you all have any advice for me that will help me rise to the challenge. I know its a huge one but its one I believe I can do as long as I put in much hard work and dedication. Any advice would be appreciated. Thanks

Steps Which i have done for integration:-
I installed Financial module in Biapps. Made changes to that pre built rpd ie:OracleBIAnalyticsApps.rpd using Administrations tool. I have created datasource for EBS and given in connection pool. Similarly in dataware house connection pool also. When i test from Administration tool means Init Block > EBS Security context > Edit datasource. When i click on test the datasource i am getting error NQ_SESSION.ICX_SESSION_COOKIE* has no value definition.*
I copied that rpd linux box where my OBIEE server resides and changed the rpd name in NQSConfig.INI. I added the oracle_home and tnsadmin etc in user.sh file. I added the dsn names which i created the same in windows in odbc.ini file. But NQServer.log says
*[nQSError: 43059] Init block 'LAST_SYND_DS_YTD_QTD': Dynamic refresh of repository scope variables has failed.*
*[nQSError: 17001] Oracle Error code: 12154, message: ORA-12154: TNS:could not resolve the connect identifier specified*
at OCI call OCIServerAttach.
*[nQSError: 17014] Could not connect to Oracle database.*
Please let me know any solution for this.
Thanks,
Manikandan

Patch Policy for EBS

Does anyone have a comprehensive list of all technology that requires security patching in the oracle EBS and supporting infrastructure?
I'd prefer comments as opposed to endless links. And possibly if you could provide a split of what Oracle will patch in the technology stack, and what it doesnt, i.e. what requires 3rd party patching?
I am pretty sure our web servers run apache, does oracle EBS only run on certain supported versions of web services?

How to Stage directory for Oracle EBS R12.1.1 on Window Server 2008 ?

Hi Every Body,
1- How to Stage directory for Oracle EBS R12.1.1 downloaded from e-delivery.com on Window Server 2008.?
-- I have download all files from e-delivery and check the md5 and all files are OK.
I extracted the entire files with winrar program to the same directory and during the unzipping I was notified to replace these files (dvd.label and component.label) and I agreed each time. So >>
2- Was that a problem ?
-- I have setup vc++ from VS6 , the sp6, cygwin , ... and set up the active directory and the domain.. and all other requirements.
BUT when i started the ebs set up it raise the "*Os User and Group Check*" error.
even if I am the only user and sure I am the Administrator. and also I run this Command to be sure
C:\>net localgroup administrators and it said that the administrator is one of the administrators group.
3- Somebody said that I have to change the temp and tmp folder to be on c:\ drive >> might this solve the problem?
thanks in advance.

Hi,
Most of the instructions you have mentioned , already was configured.
except for the tmp and temp directories.
And even I changed them from System Properties >> Advanced >> Environment Variable under User variable for Administrator and System variables , the problem still exist Os User and Group Check .
I attach the conf_VIS.txt file because I thought it may help.
http://www.4shared.com/document/1bS6aio5/conf_VIS.html
Actually I am not sure about the rapid install patch version but I have download the EBS R12 from the following link and I think it contains the recent installer version
Link >> Oracle E-Business Suite Release 12.1.1 Media Pack for Microsoft Windows (32-bit)
http://edelivery.oracle.com/EPD/Download/get_form?egroup_aru_number=11250138
Note If you still can not open the link just suggest a suitable file hosting and I will upload to you. here I used 4shared and hoped it suits you.
