Regarding Participant Creation::Authentication in Oracle BPM Admin Console

Question

Hi,
Q1:- Could anyone help me in validating whether we can additional information about participant in Admin console. The parameters available for Participant creation are:
UserId, First Name,Last Name, Email, Password, Confirm Passowrd, etc.
Now suppose, I want to add Manager's information also like Manager's Name and Manager's ID with the Participant information. These fields are not present in Participant Creation form.
Is it possible to add these information also?? If yes, how??
Q2:- We are using PAPI API where we have ASP.net which is used as Front-End and thru PAPI, BPM process is initiated which means we are not going to use BPM Workspace at all. Is it possible that we can disable the Authentication property of BPM Engine when we require interaction with external .net application via PAPI API. Please suggest?
Thanks in advance,
Abhishek

Hi,
not any thing new from the already given answer. But, i hope this examples gives more clarity.
Answers below:
1) ORACLE_SID is the answer
2) see the output below.

Variable Size 58720256 bytes

3) Check environment variables for ORACLE_HOME variable will let you know the location of the PFILE. By default it will be ORACLE_HOME/database (windows), ORACLE_HOME/dbs (LINUX/UNIX).
SET command will help you or use widows options.
In some other cases, the PFILE contains the link to it with IFILE value left in PFILE which should show the location.
4) Check environment variables for ORACLE_HOME variable will let you know the location of the password file. By default it will be expected in ORACLE_HOME/database (windows), ORACLE_HOME/dbs (LINUX/UNIX).
