Right tool for Configuration Management (version control) for Jdeveloper

All
Please share your idea and exepeience about right tool for Configuration Management (version control) for Jdeveloper Development. I used CVS in the past. Now In new company we are planning to use Oracle SCM. Is anybody used it before for Jdev Developmet ( BC4J/ADF and Struts project). Is SCM also intergrated with Jdev just like CVS.??
Jdev Team please guide us.
Thanks

Before you go with SCM you should read these two papers:

Source Configuration Management / Version Control

I was wondering what the Forte raving masses out there are doing about Source
Configuration Management and Version Control type of issues?
Have you been able to implement or "skunk work" a packaged product with your
Forte development environment?
Our shop consists of WindowsNT Forte developers coding for predominantly
Windows95 clients and a HP UNIX Central Server. At this time we currently use a
home grown "system" to handle Source Configuration Management and Version
Control issues. We are now looking to see if there is a better way to do this.
We've identified several Industry Standard packages (SCCS, CVS, Microsoft
SourceSafe etc.) and still haven't found anything very useful.
What I am seeing is that all of the packages so far have direct hooks in C++,
Visual Basic etc.
I have yet to see something with Forte hooks.

Version Control for Oracle Reports and Java

Hi
I have a Reports and Java development enviroment and I need version control for both. In JDeveloper there is only support for CVS and SVN. Does report have support for CVS and SVN?. What can I choose to offer Java and Reports version control?

Hello,
You might find neXtep Designer helpful, depending on what you need. It is a free database development environment based on the concept of version control. You will work in a dedicated version control repository in which you can import any existing database through reverse synchronization. Once imported, you will gain control over the lifecycle of your database model all along your developments. The tool will generate SQL scripts resulting from the delta between any 2 versions, allowing you to automate SQL generation. It also provide a delivery mechanism and an installer program which can automate deployment of the changes on a target database.
The product is based on the Eclipse platform and provides features like graphical data model, dependency management, SQL clients, powerful SQL editors for stored code development and currently supports Oracle, MySql and PostgreSql. You will find more information here :
http://www.nextep-softwares.com
Also have a look at the WIKI for more detailed information about the product, the concepts and the reasons why we created neXtep.
Hope this helps,
Christophe

How do I create a new emkey for Enterprise Manager Database Control?

Hi,
I just installed 11gR2.
I am evaluating it.
How do I create a new emkey for Enterprise Manager Database Control?
I tried various combinations of this command:
emctl config emkey
I did find a probable bug:
$ emctl config emkey -emkey -emkeyfile emkey.ora -force -sysman_pwd he11ow0rld

Again,
How do I create a new emkey for Enterprise Manager Database Control?
I do have a copy of my old key but it is no longer good because I reinstalled the repository with these commands:
emca -repos drop ...
emca -repos create ...
Oh, and where is emctl "documented".
I poked around in some book-index links and with the search engine.
I could not find anything.
Thanks,

Version Control for BUSINESS OBJECTS repository

Hi,
Do we have any version control for business objects repository?
Thanks

Hi
I am hoping someone can answer my Version Control queries. The LCM document is limited in its detail on VM.
I am currently testing the BO LCM 3.1 and while it appears very easy to use especially for promotion, the Version Control Manager seems to be lacking in controls and a clear promotion path from dev to test to uat to prod.
We have set up 2 identical environments for UAT and PROD.
And using the Version Control part of LCM creating version control for a universe.
Logged into VM in UAT
We have selected a universe
Added it to VM
Made a change to the universe in Designer
Exported it
Then Checked it in
Can now see 2 versions in the history and the VMS Version. All good
I then click on swap system and log into PROD
The VM history is also there in PROD
I have a number of concerns and questions and can't seem to find the solution to them anywhere.
1. VM seems to be lacking a controlled process from all the environments. Basically we want to deploy following this path;
Dev - Test - UAT - PROD
There does not seem to be any controls or security which would stop you from GET VERSION from the DEV environment and putting that straight into PROD. Obviously we would not want that to happen.
We would only want to GET VERSION from UAT
Similarly for UAT We would only want to GET VERSION from TEST
And for TEST We would only want to GET VERSION from DEV.
Granted, we currently only have 2 identical environments.
But Is there controls that would stop you when in PROD from getting versions from any other system other than UAT?
Also is there any reason why no promotion is required when using VM.
This seems to negate the Promotion Function of the LCM
Any advise would be greatly appreciated with this.
Many thanks
Eilish

Version Control for Application Express

Hi all,
We are using Application Express (HTML-DB) 2.0 with Oracle 10g Release 2. We have developed a number of pages within our application (basically sales reporting). We are starting to get ready move these pages to a test and production environment.
Before we move to a production environment we need to implement a version control and migration (development -> test -> production) system. I have read various posts about importing and exporting pages and applications that have been very informational. However, I am still not clear on certain areas, any help/information on the below questions/comments would be helpful.
1.     How are other people implementing version control? For some of our other environments (for example, PeopleSoft-SQR) we use Visual Source Safe. Can we use this along with Application Express or is there a way to keep track of versions within Application Express it self?
2.     I see you can view a pages history at Home>Application Builder>Application 107>Page Definition>History. Is there a way to view the differences between the pages or to revert back to an older page?
3.     I know you can export a single page but that leaves shared components behind that might leave the complex page in a non-working state if imported and installed in the production application. Is there a way export and import shared components, for example LOVs?
These are a few of the questions I havebut I thought it would be a good place to start.
Here are a couple of links that have given me some information related to the topic.

Version Control
How do people version control HTML DB applications?
I would be interested in hearing your thoughts and ideas on this topic.
Thanks,
Stuff

Stuff - this is also something we've been grappling with.
Did you see the excellent tip about using Web server (or PL/SQL) redirects to point to the current app? The idea is that you copy the current prod app, work on the copy and then update the redirect to point to the new app when it's released and make the old app unavailable.
This is quite brilliant in its simplicity, and has the added benefit of leaving the old app intact for bug fixes and re-releases, (or even rollback) if necessary. However, the problem with it, and the reason it's no good for our purposes, is because it sits on top of the same schema, so if the version control applies to objects in the database (i.e. the schema itself or packages etc.), then you're snookered (as far as I understand it anyway).
In a previous project, our suppliers used VSS and versioned code at the app and function/procedure/package level - I'd love to know if anyone has a robust scheme for versioning at page level.
I suspect History is an audit trail rather than versioning - I can't imagine that all the objects in all their respective states are being persisted for anything other than 'undo' purposes.
Versioning at page level seems to be problematic but it can be done, provided that the shared components are sufficiently consistent. The trick is to edit the security group ID, but the usual caveats apply.
What seems problematic to us is how to create a build out of components at different versions, like you might in a conventionally-packaged exe. I think we might end up checking in (or just saving in the file system) consistent versions at app and package level (having developed and tested in a separate schema or instance), and doing an overwrite of the prod app plus running a DDL script for package/function/procedure updates with schema deltas and other things like image uploads applied manually at cutover.
I suspect that once I delve a bit deeper into where all these objects are stored, there will be more potential for scripting, but I'm not entirely confident that this will, reliably, give us entirely what we had in Pre-Prod. Another problem I've found with this approach is that packages don't get consistently replaced.
It may simply be that we're applying waterfall concepts to what is really a RAD tool, but in any case this is my first Web-enabled development so I've been at sea with everything from design methodology to version control.
Like you, I would be really interested to hear of other suggestions.
Regards,
John.

Version control for applications

Can someone point me to resources on version control for (web) applications.
I read some documentation at cvshome.org, what I understood is that I need a Server that handles version control and a client to interact with the server to do various tasks.
I have windows 2000 pro. OS. Can someone tell me what all tools I need so that I can use version controlling for my applications.
What (free) servers and clients are available and which ones are better.
Thank you all for your time and information

CVS is one of the best version control systems, free or otherwise.
The for-fee leaders that I know of are PVCS, M$ Visual Source Safe, Rational/IBM's Clear Case. All three will require a server and separate clients.
CVS is a great choice for any kind of app. Stick with that.

Oracle VM and Oracle VM Template for Enterprise Manager Cloud Control 12c M

Hello!
After installation of *"Oracle VM 3.1.1 Media Pack v1 for x86_64 (64 bit)"* to bare hardware
can I install Oracle VM Template for Enterprise Manager Cloud Control 12c Media Pack ?
Is it the wrong plan ?
What to do if I need to set VLAN №1 ? (according note of installer I have to choose number between 2 and 4094 )
Thanks and regards,

Yes, you can install Oracle VM Manager, create a server pool with the one parent Oracle VM server in it, and then deploy the Oracle VM template in the pool. Once EM VM is up and running, you can register the same Oracle VM Manager with EM, to manage the pool.
In general, it is not recommended that you use the OVM server backend directly. But for bootstrapping the EM environment, you can also try the following:
Download the OVM Template on the Oracle VM server. From the OVM server terminal itself you can do "xm create" to spin a new virtual machine using the Oracle VM teamplate. Once the VM comes up, VNC into the VM and configure the EM OMS and agent.

Hello Amey,
Pl. activate version control for PO in SPRO. Steps are as follows
SPRO/MM/Purchasing/Version Management/Set Up Version Management for External Purchasing Documents then Add new entry for the Purchase order document type and respective Purch. organisation and put a tick in the text box.
This would solve your problem.

System Configuation API for Configuration Management

Hi all,
I've been toying around with the system configuration API for a little bit now and I see it as a great way for companies to use it as part of an overall configuration management utility. For example, if a customer wants to build up a new test rack with the same hardware aliases, configuration, and installed NI software then the system configuration API helps with most of this. I've already created a simple utility that can be used to query the currently installed hardware (of a local or remote system) and then programmatically rename the aliases based on a loaded configuration file or manual input. Likewise, the MAX export/import functionality can also be used. My application of this would primarily be non-RT and mostly PXI products but a good design could enable it to work for both.
So, my question to the community is actually on the side where I haven't used the System Configuration API yet which is querying the installed software on a system. The software querying functionality of the System Configuration API is really only geared towards RT targets and not Windows based controllers. I'd like to be able to export a list of installed software/drivers on an older system and then compare it with what is installed on a newer system to make it easier for customers to determine whether they have everything required. I know that the MAX export or report has a list of installed software but is parsing this the best way of retrieving installed software (It's a beast of a file)? Does anyone have a better method?

Solved!
Go to Solution.

Not sure if the attached VI will work across various Windows OS's since it uses a powershell command and I also don't know how well the command used will work across 32/64 bit applications...But, so far this little VI I came up with is returning the software that I want to query. Hope this is usefull for others and, as always, suggestions for improvement are welcomed!

Need help writing script to change version control for all document libraries in all sites

Hello,
I found this script, http://get-spscripts.com/2010/10/changing-sharepoint-list-settings-using.html that
changes versions control for a document library. However, many sites have many document libraries with different names. The script below just changes a the settings to a document library that is named "Shared Documents", but does not
change one if its named something else. How can change the script to loop through all document libraries so their settings are changed?
$site = Get-SPSite http://site
$listName = "Shared Documents"
#Walk through each site in the site collection
$site | Get-SPWeb |
ForEach-Object {
#Get the list in this site
$list = $_.Lists[$listName]
#Create a version each time you edit an item in this list (lists)
#Create major versions (document libraries)
$list.EnableVersioning = $true
#Create major and minor (draft) versions (document libraries only)
$list.EnableMinorVersions = $true
#Keep the following number of versions (lists)
#Keep the following number of major versions (document libraries)
$list.MajorVersionLimit = 7
#Keep drafts for the following number of approved versions (lists)
#Keep drafts for the following number of major versions (document libraries)
$list.MajorWithMinorVersionsLimit = 5
#Update the list
$list.Update()
#Dispose of the site object
$site.Dispose()
Paul

Sorry, I agree. It will update Style Library and other out of the box ones. Include the library titles in a collection and run the update against them provided these libraries are common across all sites. If not, you will have to first get an extract of
all such libraries in all sites say in a CSV file and then update the script below to refer to the CSV records.
Add-PSSnapin "Microsoft.SharePoint.PowerShell" -ErrorAction Stop;
#List of Libraries to be updated.
$Libraries = @("Shared Documents","My Document Library");
$spAssgn = Start-SPAssignment;
$site = Get-SPSite http://site -AssignmentCollection $spAssgn
#Walk through each site in the site collection
$site | Get-SPWeb -Limit ALL -AssignmentCollection $spAssgn |
ForEach-Object {
#Enumerate through all document libraries
$_.Lists|Where{$_.BaseTemplate -eq "DocumentLibrary" -and $Libraries -contains $_.Title}|Foreach-Object{
#Get the list in this site
$list = $_;
#Create a version each time you edit an item in this list (lists)
#Create major versions (document libraries)
$list.EnableVersioning = $true
#Create major and minor (draft) versions (document libraries only)
$list.EnableMinorVersions = $true
#Keep the following number of versions (lists)
#Keep the following number of major versions (document libraries)
$list.MajorVersionLimit = 7
#Keep drafts for the following number of approved versions (lists)
#Keep drafts for the following number of major versions (document libraries)
$list.MajorWithMinorVersionsLimit = 5
#Update the list
$list.Update()
Stop-SPAssignment $spAssgn;
