RCU installation and Table prefix

For RCU installation - If two products are in different domain then their prefix should be different? Is it best practice or required?

    Thanks veeravalli for your reply,
    I tried manually created a user and provided the sysdba priveiledge to that user and gave that user name and pwd in the database connection steps of RCU installation and gave next .this time i dint get the invalid username /pwd error.But instead i got the below error.
    RCU-6002:The specified database does not meet the minimum requirement to load metadata repository.
    RCU-6080:Global prerequisite check failed - Check requirement for specified database
    The database you are connecting is with non-AL32UTF8 character set. Oracle strongly recommends using AL32UTF8 as the database character set.
    Can anyone suggest an idea to resolve this issue .

  • RCU Schemas and Information in it

    Hi Guru's
    I am new to OBIEE 11g.
    I have successfully installed obiee 11g on my local machine and we are going forward to install them on Dev server.
    But I am confused with some issues like what will be stored in the schemas like BIPLATFORM and MDS.
    And Obiee wont start up without that schemas.
    What if we update or do something in database that drops these schemas?
    Do we get scripts to create these schemas again in the database if any worse happens without effecting installed OBIEE.
    Thank you Very much.

    Hi
    But I am confused with some issues like what will be stored in the schemas like BIPLATFORM and MDS.
    These schemas will store all the meta-data information related to your BI Application, like lifecycle of app, any triggers, any schedulers etc.
    And Obiee wont start up without that schemas.
    YES. OBIEE will NOT start or work if these Schemas are NOT up and running.
    What if we update or do something in database that drops these schemas?
    Generally, these 2 Schemas cannot be updated directly by any user unless they really go to those tables and modify data. These tables are accessed internally by BI Framework APIs. Most of the times, users will NOT modify these tables data. Only SYS user can drop these schemas, unless other user have SYS privileges. Also, these Schemas can be created only by Database SYS user (Admin). Unless required, actual normal user/developer will not need access to these tables. He just needs details to configure these to this BI Domain for DataSources.
    Do we get scripts to create these schemas again in the database if any worse happens without effecting installed OBIEE.
    YES. There is a big giant zip file / utilitly called RCU (Repository Creation Utility) that can be downloaded from Oracle Site. Also, it has different versions for different middleware products. Like BI 11.5 will use RCU 11.5, BI 11.3 will use RCU 11.3 etc. These versions should match. You download this big zip file, unzip it and run a batch file. It will ask for SYS user/pwd along with db host, port, sid. Then you can select whether to CREATE / DROP schemas. Then you select for which Middleware Product you want Schemas like for BI (above 2 schemas), for SOA/BPM (about 3/4 schemas), WebCenter (Some other schemas etc). And finally it creates Tablespaces, Users, Tables, Functions, StoreProcs etc etc etc. Hence we need SYS details to run RCU command.

  • Error RCU-6083 during RCU installation prior to OBIEE 11g on Solaris

    Hello,
    I have an application server where I have an Oracle Database EE 11g running on Solaris 10 upgrade 9.
    The server has the following characteristics:
    - SUN V440
    - RAM 16GB
    - 2 processors Ultra Sparc III, 1.5GHz
    - OS: Solaris version 10
    - Disk space: 500GB
    - Oracle Weblogic Server 11g (10.3)
    - Ethernet 1 Gpbs
    I want to install the RCU schemas and OBIEE 11g (11.1.1.5.0) on this server so I verified all the pre-requisites for RCU and OBIEE and are OK.
    I am using the Repository Creation Utility (11.1.1.5.0) for Microsoft Windows (32-bit) to install the RCU because although the database is running on Solaris, the installer is not working through that server so I have a PC connected to the network and through that PC that has windows7 i could run the installer and connect to the db, using the SYSTEM user (because when i select sys as sysdba, although the password is correct, it doesn't connect to the db).
    However, the installer is sending the ERROR: RCU-6083 regarding the pre-requisites for the BIPLATFORM.
    I already use the following command alter system set processes=500 and restarted the db services, however the wizard installer is still sendig that error.
    What can be done to succesfully install the RCU?
    Thanks and regards,
    Rebeca

    Hello User,
    Below my comments in blue:-
    1) Do I need to install any Oracle DB (like to install 10g) prior to running rcu.bat file?
    Yes
    2) If I install Oracle 10g DB, does if create any compatibility issue while installing OBIEE 11g?
    Check below the compatibility matrix

  • New User Database schema and table name

    When i create a new user in Oracle Webcenter Spaces 11g, I am not able to get the name of the database schema and table, where it is stored. Any insight on this will be very helpful.

    WebCenter (and WebCenter spaces) uses an 'identity store' instead of database schema for storing user information - in an 'out of the box' installation, users are maintained through an embedded WebLogic LDAP store.
    See the Oracle Fusion Middleware Administrator's Guide for Oracle WebCenter, p. 34-2.
    At the end of section 34.4.1:
    WebCenter Spaces supports self-registration. When new WebCenter users
    self-register, they create their own login and password and a new user account is
    created in the identity store. See also, Section 34.4, "Allowing Self-Registration".

  • Winrm and URL Prefix

    My company changed the default wsman URL Prefix for Winrm. As a consequence, we cannot access file shares on Failover Clustering. We get Event Error codes 142 and 49 under the Windows Remote Management  Event logs. Changing the URL Prefix back to
    wsman resolves our issue. Is there a way to resolve this issue keeping our changed URL Prefix?

    Hi Jeffreyw1,
    Based on the description of your cases, you wanted to change the default wsman URL Prefix for Winrm. After discussion with escalate engineer i got we
    had better use the default settings for it. Changing it is not supported.

  • EBS architecture regarding DB, tablespace, users and tables

    Hi All,
    I do have some questions regarding the database, data model, table space... architecture of an EBS 12.1.1 installation (I use Windows 2008 as platform):
    1)
    Table space:
    Is it correct that the table space used for EBS Apps tables is applsys? Is there more than one table space used for EBS tables?
    2)
    User:
    The Database user used by EBS to connect to the DB is "apps", right? The users mfg, sysadmin... are logical users which do not have a correspondent db account. Is that correct as well?
    3)
    DB Access:
    How can I setup the right environment to access the DB. In order to execute sqlplus, I need to set a proper environment. There is a script called "c:\oracle\VIS\apps\apps_st\appl\VIS_ebs1.cmd". Is that the right script?
    I do have more that one script with that name. Example: C:\oracle\VIS\inst\apps\VIS_ebs1\ora\10.1.3\VIS_ebs1.cmd
    How do I know, which one is the right script for what purpose?
    4)
    Data model and tables:
    I found etrm which should give an overview of the EBS data model (and much more), but up to know, I'm not wuite sure how to use it to find the information I'm looking for.
    Example: I would like to know where EBS items are stored. I found these tables:
    INVFG_ITEMS
    INVFV_ITEMS.
    In INVFG_ITEMS I was able to find my newly created items, but is it the "main" table for items. How can I find that out? Is etrm the right tool for this?
    In etrm, there is a section with FND and another section with DBA. What is the difference and when would I use which section?
    I'm sorry for that much questions but right now, my understanding of the EBS and it's architecture is still very basic and these are things which I need to know in order to get a better picture...
    Many thanks,
    Konrad

    Hi Konrad;
    1)
    Table space:
    Is it correct that the table space used for EBS Apps tables is applsys? Is there more than one table space used for EBS tables?There are some other tablespace for EBS. Please check Oracle Application Concept manuel Part 3-4
    For r12.1.1:
    http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B53825_01/current/html/docset.html
    2)
    User:
    The Database user used by EBS to connect to the DB is "apps", right? The users mfg, sysadmin... are logical users which do not have a correspondent db account. Is that correct as well?For windows installation there is only one user for can connect db and apps and also run utulity liek (adpatch etc)
    For unix/linux we can use 2 users,1 for dbtier and other for appstier.
    MFG sysadmin etc... those are EBS user which is pre-define before.
    Please check user guide and also installation guide
    For r12.1.1:
    http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B53825_01/current/html/docset.html
    3)
    DB Access:
    How can I setup the right environment to access the DB. In order to execute sqlplus, I need to set a proper environment. There is a script called "c:\oracle\VIS\apps\apps_st\appl\VIS_ebs1.cmd". Is that the right script?For Windows, for can accsess apps or db you have top run env file, This file contains information about your ebs. You have to run below cmd for can access for db or apps
    For db:
    c:\oracle\VIS\db\tech_st\11.1.0\VIS_ebs1.cmd (SID_Hostname.cmd)
    For apps:
    c:\oracle\VIS\apps\apps_st\appl\APPSVIS_ebs1.cmd (APPSSID_Hostname.cmd)
    4)

  • Numbered captions for figures and tables

    Can anyone tell me how to create captions for figures and tables such that they are automatically numbers (ex. Figure 1, Figure 2, ...) so that when I remove or add a new figure in the middle of the document I don't have to manually re-number everything. If it still is not possible in Pages ver. 4, I hope that someone can write an applescript that will post process a document to prefix captions preceding tables with Table # and any captions following images with Figure # or "Some custom phrase" followed by #.

    Writing that here is perfectly useless.
    _Go to "Provide Pages Feedback" in the "Pages" menu_, describe what you wish.
    Then, cross your fingers, and wait _at least_ for iWork'10

    uh, maybe so the parser doesn't have as many hoops to jump through to resolve non-specific object references.
    You could cite your reference ...

    BTW, it would be really helpful if you would go to your profile and give yourself a recognizable name.  It doesn't have to be your real name, just something that looks like a real name.  Who says my name is really Ed Stevens?  But at least when people see that on a message they have a recognizable identity.  Unlike the system generated name of 'ed0f625b-6857-4956-9b66-da280b7cf3a2', which is no better than posting as "Anonymous".

  • Apparent mismatch installer and coreinfo

    I am attempting to upgrade Win 8.0 x64 to Windows 8.1 x64 (standard editions) using iso images downloaded with my product key.  I checked processor hardware compatibility when installing 8.0 and all is fine with windows 8.0. But windows 8.1 won't
    install. The installer claims that the CPU doesn't support PREFETCHW instruction and aborts.
    However running "coreinfo" (sysinternals) tells me another story - that prefetchw and all other CPU prerequisites ARE INDEED  met by my Pentium 4. Inclined to believe this as the 64 bit Windows 8.0 runs just fine. What gives?

    Hi CHEN,
    Thanks for your reply. I need to be more clear...
    I wrote...
    *The installer claims that the CPU doesn't support PREFETCHW instruction and aborts.*
    This message did indeed come from an upgrade attempt from Windows 8.0 x64 standard edition (and I had just installed that fresh (as a clean install) from iso image that I downloaded from the windows store using the upgrade assistant. Your reply might indicate
    that I have some mileage in trying this approach again  AFTER  installing critical & important updates and turning windows firewall off temporarily.
    I also wrote..
    *using iso images downloaded with my product key.*
    I gave up on the upgrade route and downloaded iso images instead using the Media Creation Tool to USB ISO images of Windows 8.0 and Windows 8.1 Standard x64.
    Windows 8.0 installs and runs just fine using clean install from USB ISO image.
    WINDOWS 8.1 install consistently fails during installation...
    The following error message is flashed on the screen (captured by video)
    Your PC needs to restart.
    Please hold down the power button:

    BIOS offers me control over hyperthreading on/off but the setting has no influence on this behaviour.

  • RCU Installation - Service Name of fresh DB installation

    Hi,
    I am setting up SOA suite 11g. I have Oracle 11.1.0.7 DB (fresh installation) and I my lsnrctl is showing following information;
    $ lsnrctl status

    I chose to create new repository and provided following information on RCU setup screen;
    Host Name: IP_Address of the machine
    Port: 1521
    Service Name: *<--- I dont know what to provide here as I didn't create any databases on server yet*
    Username: sys
    Password: ******
    Role: sysdba
    Am I missing anything....?

    Hi,
    I found the solution and some more useful information which I wanted to add here for future reference.
    To run RCU, we need to create a DB first in Oracle and then LSNRCTL will pick up that database and start listening on default port (1521). Use you DB name as Service name which can be verified as follows;
    LSNRCTL Status_
    $ lsnrctl status

    The command completed successfully
    Also I found out during my RCU installation we need some more settings before and after creating DB to run RCU successfully;
    *1) DB_BLOCK_SIZE Settings*
    The default initDB_NAME.ora file create DB with *'db_block_size=4096'*, if that the case you'll see following error while installing RCU;
    RCU-6002:The specified database does not meet the minimum requirement to load metadata repository.
    RCU-6080:Global prerequisite check failed - Check requirement for specified database
    RCU-6107:DB Init Param Prerequisite failure for: DB_BLOCK_SIZE
    Current Value is 4 KB. It should be greater than or equal to 8 KB.
    User should have sysdba or dba privilages.
    It is irreversible :(. You have to drop and create DB again with following parameter in $ORACLE_HOME/dbs/initDB_NAME.ora file;
    db_block_size=8192
    *2) User Previlages*
    You can not use SYS/SYSDBA to connect to Oracle DB from RCU setup. To grant SYSDBA permissions to the ORACLE DB user first apply following command from shell;
    $ orapwd file=$ORACLE_HOME/dbs/orapw$ORACLE_SID password=PASSWORD entries=4 force=y
    Note: In above command the password is Unix/Windows login password not SYS password.
    Now, login into SQLPLUS prompt using sys/sysdba to finally grant SYSDBA opermission to normal Oracle DB User as follows and restart DB to apply changes;
    SQL> grant sysdba to aia;     <-- Grant SYSDBA permission to user 'aia' in this case
    Grant succeeded.
    SQL> grant dba to aia;
    Grant succeeded.
    SQL> startup force;
    ORA-32004: obsolete and/or deprecated parameter(s) specified
    ORACLE instance started.
