Rules of thumb for sizing an Oracle BPM 11g deployment
Anyone out there have some rules of thumb they are using to size out an environment for Oracle BPM 11g? I know processing power can vary widely for process complexity and amount of data floating around. Still, I get asked questions like how much processing power do I need for this solution? I have a current client looking at 2500+ potential human workflow users with 1000 concurrent at peak load. Short of running some performance test myself and extrapolating numbers I am at a loss. Hoping some others can chime in with some thoughts.
an update... my rule of thumb for 50 users has proven to be a bit high. Looks to be 30-40 per core when you split out the BPMN engine from other computing intensive processes such as the ESB. Without splitting up overall SOA/BPM functionality over multiple servers concurrent user counts of various technology really takes a hit.

Rule of thumb for CACHE_SIZE
Hi all,
I do have a system outsourced, where the DB (MAXDB 7.6.05) runs on a single SLES 10 server.
This server has got 16 GB RAM. The CACHE_SIZE is configured to 20 GB (2500000 pages) and a top shows me, that from the 40 GB swap 20 GB are used (file system cache is so low, that it can be ignored) ... and swapd runs with at least 6% CPU all the time.
Is this a good situation? Not for me! Does anybody have a rule of thumb for CACHE_SIZE?
I would say 75 % of RAM should be the highest value... any othe suggestion?
Thank you!
ChristianCache must always fit in the physical RAM. The purpose of the cache is to hold data in the memory that it doesn't need to be read again and again from the disk. If you now configure that cache bigger than the physical available RAM (minus application minus operating system) the system will start swapping/paging in and out and hence slowing down the full system.
Ideally the machine is not swapping at all and all data is in the memory.

Oracle BPM 11g Workspace - Load Management Among Users

2. Go to Preferences -> My Rules -> Other Rules tab.
3. Enter the group name and click search icon.
4. Select the group & click green plus icon to create a rule.
5. Here, select the Round Robin option.
6. Save the rule.
Yet tasks are assigned to all the users in the group & not in Round Robin fashion.
Please help.
Thanks.

Availability based routing in Oracle BPM 11g
Hi
Does Oracle BPM 11g support availability based routing enabling equal distribution of work? If so can someone guide me on how to do it?
Regards
VenkatAlso see this http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E15586_01/integration.1111/e10224/bp_worklist.htm#CHDBBIIC
Group rules do the following actions:
Assign to member via—You can specify a criterion to determine which member of the group gets the assignment. This dynamic assignment criterion can include round-robin assignment, assignment to the least busy group member, or assignment to the most productive group member. You can also add your custom functions for allocating tasks to users in a group. -

Parametric roles in Oracle BPM 11g
Hi all!,
For all of us that was asking how to do the parametric roles in Oracle BPM 11g, here´s how to do it, hope it helps.
Regards!!

https://docs.google.com/file/d/0B7YrnfO7h717M2U1MTlmMmEtZjI3Mi00ZTNhLWFhNTQtYzkyZjc5OGI5Y2I4/edit?pli=1Might also want to look at a blog post I wrote based on an idea Arun Pareek came up with. (click here)
The differences are (1) that this lets you assign parametric roles to groups or application roles instead of individual users making them simpler to maintain and (2) IMO it's a lot easier to do using this technique.

Mapping LDAP Role in Building Your First Process with Oracle BPM 11g
I'm working on "Building Your First Process with Oracle BPM 11g" I'm at the end of step where assigns user for the requester. The problem is in identity lookup, "Realm" is empty for Remote_WLServer.
Servers are up and running. Demo user community has been loaded - I can see the list of users and groups in the administration server under myrealm. We haven't done much since SOA suite 11g installation. I'm probably the first one who uses this. I wonder we have a missing set up? Can you me what's missing? Appreciate your help in advance.I get this error message when I clicked gear icon.
"Server exception is : Connection refused from server"
Here is the result of testing Remove_WLServer connection. Does this cause the issue?

Import Oracle BPA model (EPC) to Oracle BPM 11G
Hi,
I have my business process modeled using Oracle BPA product (EPC format). Now I need to import this model into Oracle BPM 11G which uses BPMN 2.0 format. Does any of the softwares provide a way to transform EPC models to BPMN 2.0 format.
These are the some of the approaches that I tried to perform the conversion:
1. Use share blueprint option for EPC model
Issue with this approach: The model imorted in jdeveloper is not BPMN 2.0 format, It is .xpdl file
2. Installed tutor macros on Oracle BPA, however this macro is enabled only for BPMN 2.0 process models, not for collobration models. Recreating the entire model as BPMN 2.0 Process model (I don't prefer this approach since this include manual conversion of the models from EPC) also does not work.
Issue with this approach: After importing model in OBPM is all activities appear as human task, new human task is created for start and stop activities along with start and stop events.
3. Use share blueprint option in Oracle BPA, this works only for BPMN 1.0 formats.
Issue with this approach: The SOA -> share blueprint option is not enabled for BPMN 2.0 type models
Ideal solution for me would be if there is a way to import the models created in EPC format into oracle BPM 11g without recreating the models manually. Can anyone help me with this?Hi,
Actually it's tool couldn't help you resolve your tasks.
It hasn't options "share blueprint" for BPMN 2.0 type models.
And I don't know software which can transform EPC model to BPMN 2.0 model... -
Hi All,
I am using Jdeveloper 11g Rel 1. (11.1.1.6.0) with BPM Studio for Implementing Sales Application.
1) Application File = SalesQuoteLab.jws.
2) Project File = QuoteProcessLab.jpr
3) Process File = RequestQuoteLab.bpmn
I have completed the All the Roles (Sales Rep, Approvers and Contracts) with complete flow.
In the Business Practices Role (Swim Lane -
a) I created a Exclusive Gateway Named as (Is Business Practices Review Required ?)
b) which has sequence flow (Yes) to Human Task Named (Business Practices Review)
c) I created a new Exclusive Gateway named as (Business Practices Outcome) This Gateway has
i) Outgoing condition flow (Business Practices Rejected) to Human Task (Enter Quote Details) in Sales Rep. Role.
ii) Outgoing Unconditional flow (Business Practices Approved) to Parallel Gateway (Approvals ) in Approvers Role.
Here the Point is :
When I am Trying to do this step
"Drag the outgoing sequence flow from Business Practices Review to Business
Practices Outcome gateway" (Exclusive Gateway)
I am not able to draw the outgoing sequence flow from Human Task (Business Practices Review) to Business
Practices Outcome gateway. It denies even when I am clicking the Artifacts --> Sequence Flow Icon from Component Pallete
or from the tool bars icons - Artifacts --> Sequence Flow.
Due to this in my second Phase of Simulation Activity, (have completed all the simulation pre-requisites) When I start the Simulation I am getting the following error.
"Node 'Business Practices Review' does not have any incoming Sequence Flows"
Please correct me how do I do this step.
"Drag the outgoing sequence flow from Business Practices Review to Business
Practices Outcome gateway" (Exclusive Gateway)
For this I have referred many guides and Tutorial, but none could provide the solution.
Please response ASAP, awaiting your timely and valuable solution. to the post or to my id : [email protected]
Thanks and Regards

Mumbai - IndiaFor the Oracle BPM 11g documentation go to http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E14571_01/soa.htm for the documentation (look at the "Oracle Business Process Management Suite" section).
10g and 11g Oracle BPM are vastly different. A couple key differences:
- 10g runs on Ecllipse and 11g runs on JDeveloper
- 11g has full access to the SOA Suite adapters natively using SCA

Hi,
Are there any news about oracle BPM 11g release? When it will be released (I heard early 2010). We are starting a new project and nnewd to decide weather to use version 10g or new features of version 11g.
Thanks,
MatejThanks for the links.
I was not aware of them. I've reviewed them,. They are pretty high level. We are looking for the documentation about integration with other applciations.

Do we need the weblogic server to be up and running for running the process in simulation mode in Oracle BPM 11g?
I have created a process using JDeveloper and trying to run using simulations.The execute buttonm is disabled in simulations view.
So do we need the weblogic server to run process simulation in 11g ?It should work without the WLS. Did you create a Simulation Model and Definition?
