How to configure email Alerts in OEM Cloud 12c for Database Servers up/down

Hi everybody,
How to configure email Alerts in OEM Cloud 12c for Database Servers up/down status?
Regards,
Miguel Vega

Hi Miguel Vega,
Information regarding the notifications:
==============================
Configuring notification rules in 12c is different from earlier releases.
The concept and function of notification rules has been replaced with a two-tier system consisting of Incident Rules and Incident Rule Sets :
1. Incident Rules: Operate at the lowest level granularity (on discrete events) and performs the same role as notification rules from earlier releases.
By using incident rules, you can automate the response to incoming incidents and their updates.
A rule contains a set of automated actions to be taken on specific events, incidents or problems.
The actions taken are for example : sending e-mails, creating incidents, updating incidents, and creating tickets.
2. Incident Rule Set: A rule set is a collection of rules that applies to a common set of objects, for example, targets, jobs, and templates.
To help you to achieve the Notification Rules configuration, refer those notes :

Hi
Idoc Def :Standard SAP format for electronic data interchange between systems (Intermediate Document). Different message types (such as delivery confirmations or purchase orders) normally represent different specific formats, the IDoc types. However, multiple message types with related content can be assigned to one IDoc type: For example, the IDoc type ORDERS01 transfers the "logical" message types ORDERS (purchase order) and ORDRSP (order confirmation).
Idocs are of two types basic type and the extension type .we need to configure the system settings for this process .
IDOC (Intermediate Document) - A data holder.
IDOC is divided in to three parts.
Control Record
Data Record
Status Record
Control record (Table: EDIDC):
- Every IDOC has only one Control Record
- Each Control Record contains header information like:
o IDOC Number
o Direction of IDOC: Inbound or Outbound
o Date and Time of creation of IDOC
o Date and time when the IDOC was last modified.
o Message Type of IDOC
o IDOC type and extension of IDOC
o Sender and Receiver Partner
Data record (Table: EDID4):
- Data Record contains Data to be processed.
- Every IDOC has one data record with multiple segments in hierarchy.
- Segments and Hierarchy of Segments are defined by IDOC Type and Extension.
- IDOC created has to strictly follow the hierarchy; else IDOC fails with Syntax error.
- Segments which are repetitive have qualifiers attached to it
Status record (Table: EDIDS):
- Status Record describes the status of IDOC.
- Each IDOC contains one status Record with multiple status information.
- Status at each level is appended to IDOC. E.g. When IDOC is created in SAP, Status is This IDoc has been generated through a test transaction, When the IDOC is added to system it is IDOC added, IDOC ready to be transferred to Application
- Status should always be read bottom-up. Status at the top is the latest status.
- Some Example of Status Records:
o Inbound:
§ 53 - IDOC successfully posted
§ 51 IDOC Failed
§ 64 - IDOC ready to be transferred to Application
o
Outbound:
§ 30 IDOC ready for Dispatch
§ 03 IDOC passed to port OK
§ 12 IDOC Dispatched
§ 16 Functional Acknowledgement Positive
§ 17 functional Acknowledgement Negative
IDoc Type: Defines the segments and hierarchy of segments
o Transaction Code:
§ WE30 To create, change or display the IDOC type and the extension.
§ WE31 To create the Segment
- IDOC type defines the segments to be used in the IDOC.
- It also defines the hierarchy and syntax of the segments.
- IDOC extension is nothing but to add segments to standard IDOC types.
- Transaction WE31 allows you to create segments.
- Program RSEIDOC3 documents the use of each IDOC type.
Segments:
Attributes of a Segment:
- Mandatory Segment: If checked, this segment should always exist in the IDOC.
- Minimum Number:
- Maximum Number: Maximum number of times this segment can be repeated in IDOC. -
Parent Segment: Parent of this segment
- Hierarchy level: Level of hierarchy.
Segment Definition (WE31):
Messsage Type: Defines the type of data in the IDOC
o Transaction Code:
§ WE81 To create, change or display the Message type and the extension.
§ WE82 Using this transaction you can link Message Type, IDOC Type, IDOC Extension and version.
- Message type identifies the type of data IDOC holds. E.g. Orders (ORDERS), Delivery (DESADV), Invoice (INVOICE). It also defines what needs to be done with the data in the IDOC, in case of Inbound IDOC, and which data to be extracted in case of Outbound IDOC.
- Message Type is linked to a process code, which in turn is linked to a Function Module. This function module extracts from or posts data to SAP depending on direction of IDOC.
- Relation between Message Type, IDOC type and IDOC extension needs to define. Without this relation Message type or IDOC type cannot be used.
Message Type Create, Change or Display (WE81):
Setup link between Message Type, IDOC Type, IDOC Extension and Version (WE82)
Process Code: Function Module is linked to a process code. This function module in executed for inbound or outbound IDOC.
o Transaction Codes:
§ WE41 Outbound Process Code
§ WE42 Inbound Process Code
- Process codes are linked to a Function Module.
- Relationship is Message Type is linked to a Process Code which is linked to a Function Module.
- In case if you are using a stand alone code to trigger an IDOC, you need not define a process code.
RFC Destination: System definition of destination.
o Transaction Code: SM59
- RFC destination identifies the destination of IDOC.
- In case of ALE:
o In ALE the communication mode is IDOC to IDOC, hence the type used is R/3 Connections.
o It is the destination SAP system which will receive the IDOC.
o In RFC destination you define the destination SAP system details like System, Login and Password.

How to configure sso with SSL step by step

Purpose
In this document, you can learn how to configure SSO with SSL. After user have certificate installed in browser, he can login without input username and password.
Overview
In this document we will demonstrate:
1.     How to configure OHS support SSL
2.     How to Register SSO with SSL
3.     Configure SSO for certificates
Prerequisites
Before start this document, you should have:
1.     Oracle AS 10g infrastructure installed (10.1.2)
2.     OCA installed
Note:
1.     “When you install Oracle infrastructure, please make sure you have select OCA.
2.     How Certificate-Enabled Authentication Works:
a.     The user tries to access a partner application.
b.     The partner application redirects the user to the single sign-on server for authentication. As part of this redirection, the browser sends the user's certificate to the login URL of the server (2a). If it is able to verify the certificate, the server returns the user to the requested application.
c.     The application delivers content. Users whose browsers are configured to prompt for a certificate-store password may only have to present this password once, depending upon how their browser is configured. If they log out and then attempt to access a partner application, the browser passes their certificate to the single sign-on server automatically. This means that they never really log out. To effectively log out, they must close the browser.
Enable SSL on the Single Sign-On Middle Tier
The following steps involve configuring the Oracle HTTP Server. Perform them on the single sign-on middle tier. In doing so, keep the following in mind:
l     You must configure SSL on the computer where the single sign-on middle tier is running.
l     You are configuring one-way SSL.
l     You may enable SSL for simple network encryption; PKI authentication is not required. Note though that you must use a valid wallet and server certificate. The default wallet location is ORACLE_HOME/Apache/Apache/conf/ssl.wlt/default.
1.     Back up the opmn.xml file, found at ORACLE_HOME/opmn/conf
2.     In opmn.xml, change the value for the start-mode parameter to ssl-enabled. This parameter appears in boldface in the xml tag immediately following.
<ias-component id="HTTP_Server">
<process-type id="HTTP_Server" module-id="OHS">
<module-data>
<category id="start-parameters">
<data id="start-mode" value="ssl-enabled"/>
</category>
</module-data>
<process-set id="HTTP_Server" numprocs="1"/>
</process-type>
</ias-component>
3.     Update the distributed cluster management database with the change: ORACLE_HOME/dcm/bin/dcmctl updateconfig -ct opmn
4.     Reload the modified opmn configuration file:
ORACLE_HOME/opmn/bin/opmnctl reload
5.     Keep a non-SSL port active. The External Applications portlet communicates with the single sign-on server over a non-SSL port. The HTTP port is enabled by default. If you have not disabled the port, this step requires no action.
6.     Apply the rule mod_rewrite to SSL configuration. This step involves modifying the ssl.conf file on the middle-tier computer. The file is at ORACLE_HOME/Apache/Apache/conf. Back up the file before editing it.
Because the Oracle HTTP Server has to be available over both HTTP and HTTPS, the SSL host must be configured as a virtual host. Add the lines that follow to the SSL Virtual Hosts section of ssl.conf if they are not already there. These lines ensure that the single sign-on login module in OC4J_SECURITY is invoked when a user logs in to the SSL host.
<VirtualHost ssl_host:port>
RewriteEngine on
RewriteOptions inherit
</VirtualHost>
Save and close the file.
7.     Update the distributed cluster management database with the changes:
ORACLE_HOME/dcm/bin/dcmctl updateconfig -ct ohs
8.     Restart the Oracle HTTP Server:
ORACLE_HOME/opmn/bin/opmnctl stopproc process-type=HTTP_Server
ORACLE_HOME/opmn/bin/opmnctl startproc process-type=HTTP_Server
9.     Verify that you have enabled the single sign-on middle tier for SSL by trying to access the OracleAS welcome page, using the format https://host:ssl_port.
Reconfigure the Identity Management Infrastructure Database
Change all references of http in single sign-on URLs to https within the identity management infrastructure database. When you change single sign-on URLs in the database, you must also change these URLs in the targets.xml file on the single sign-on middle tier. targets.xml is the configuration file for the various "targets" that Oracle Enterprise Manager monitors. One of these targets is OracleAS Single Sign-On.
1.     Change Single Sign-On URLs
Run the ssocfg script, taking care to enter the command on the computer where the single sign-on middle tier is located. Use the following syntax:
UNIX:
$ORACLE_HOME/sso/bin/ssocfg.sh protocol host ssl_port
Windows:
%ORACLE_HOME%\sso\bin\ssocfg.bat protocol host ssl_port
In this case, protocol is https. (To change back to HTTP, use http.) The parameter host is the host name, or server name, of the Oracle HTTP listener for the single sign-on server.
Here is an example:
ssocfg.sh https login.acme.com 4443
2. Restart OC4J_SECURITY instance and verify the configuration
To determine the correct port number, examine the ssl.conf file. Port 4443 is the port number that the OracleAS installer assigns during installation.
If you run ssocfg successfully, the script returns a status 0. To confirm that you were successful, restart the OC4J_SECURITY instance:
ORACLE_HOME/opmn/bin/opmnctl restartproc process-type=OC4J_SECURITY
Then try logging in to the single sign-on server at its SSL address:
https://host:ssl_port/pls/orasso/
     3. Back up the file targets.xml:
cp ORACLE_HOME/sysman/emd/targets.xml ORACLE_HOME/sysman/emd/targets.xml.backup
4. Open the file and find the target type oracle_sso_server. Within this target type, locate and edit the three attributes that you passed to ssocfg:
·     HTTPMachine—the server host name
·     HTTPPort—the server port number
·     HTTPProtocol—the server protocol
If, for example, you run ssocfg like this:
ORACLE_HOME/sso/bin/ssocfg.sh http sso.mydomain.com:4443
Update the three attributes this way:
<Property NAME="HTTPMachine" VALUE="sso.mydomain.com"/>
<Property NAME="HTTPPort" VALUE="4443"/>
<Property NAME="HTTPProtocol" VALUE="HTTPS"/>
5.Save and close the file.
6.     Reload the OracleAS console:
     ORACLE_HOME/bin/emctl reload
7. Issue these two commands:
ORACLE_HOME/opmn/bin/opmnctl restartproc process-type=HTTP_Server
ORACLE_HOME/opmn/bin/opmnctl restartproc process-type=OC4J_SECURITY
Registering mod_osso
1.     This command sequence that follows shows a mod_osso instance being reregistered with the single sign-on server.
$ORACLE_HOME/sso/bin/ssoreg.sh
     -oracle_home_path $ORACLE_HOME
     -config_mod_osso TRUE
     -mod_osso_url https://myhost.mydomain.com:4443
2.     Restarting the Oracle HTTP Server
After running ssoreg, restart the Oracle HTTP Server:
ORACLE_HOME/opmn/bin/opmnctl restartproc process-type=HTTP_Server
Configuring the Single Sign-On System for Certificates
1.     Configure policy.properties with the Default Authentication Plugin
Update the DefaultAuthLevel section of the policy.properties file with the correct authentication level for certificate sign-on. This file is at ORACLE_HOME/sso/conf. Set the default authentication level to this value:
DefaultAuthLevel = MediumHighSecurity
Then, in the Authentication plugins section, pair this authentication level with the default authentication plugin:
MediumHighSecurity_AuthPlugin = oracle.security.sso.server.auth.SSOX509CertAuth
2.     Restart the Single Sign-On Middle Tier
After configuring the server, restart the middle tier:
ORACLE_HOME/opmn/bin/opmnctl restartproc process-type=HTTP_Server
ORACLE_HOME/opmn/bin/opmnctl restartproc process-type=OC4J_SECURITY
Bringing the SSO Users to OCA User Certificate Request URL
The OCA server reduces the administrative and maintenance cost of provisioning a user certificate. The OCA server achieves this by authenticating users by using OracleAS SSO server authentication. All users who have an Oracle AS SSO server account can directly get a certificate by using the OCA user interface. This reduces the time normoally requidred to provision a certificate by a certificate authority.
The URL for the SSO certificate Request is:
https://<Oracle_HTTP_host>:<oca_ssl_port>/oca/sso_oca_link
You can configure OCA to provide the user certificate request interface URL to SSO server for display whenever SSO is not using a sertificate to authenticate a user. After the OracleAS SSO server authenticates a user, it then display the OCA screen enabling that user to request a certificate.
To link the OCA server to OracleAS SSO server, use the following command:
ocactl linksso
opmnctl stoproc type=oc4j instancename=oca
opmnctl startproc type=oc4j instancename=oca
You also can use ocactl unlinksso to unlink the OCA to SSO.

I have read the SSO admin guide, and performed the steps for enabling SSL on the SSO, and followed the steps to configure mod_osso with virtual host on port 4443 as mentioned in the admin guide.
The case now is that when I call my form (which is developed by forms developer suite 10g and deployed on the forms server which is SSO enabled) , it calls the SSO module on port 7777 using http (the default behaviour).
on a URL that looks like this :
http://myhostname:7777/pls/orasso/orasso.wwsso_app_admin.ls_login?Site2pstoreToken=.......
and gives the error :
( Forbidden
You don't have permisission to access /sso/auth on this server at port 7777)
when I manually change the URL to :
https://myhostname:4443/pls/orasso/orasso.wwsso_app_admin.ls_login?Site2pstoreToken=.......
the SSO works correctly.
The question is :
How can I change this default behaviour and make it call SSO on port 4443 using https instead ?
Any ideas ?
Thanks in advance

I just got a fc7 yamaha expression pedal and can't figure out how to configure it with mainstage or logic.

I just got a fc7 yamaha expression pedal and can't figure out how to configure it with mainstage or logic. I'm using a Gio pedal.

Hi
You will need to map the "Expression Pedal" to the Waa pedal. There are several ways you could do it, here's one:
In Layout Mode, add a Pedal Screen control, and Assign it to the in-coming MIDI from the GiO.
In Edit mode, select the Screen Control, and click the "Map Parameter" button. While this is active click on the Wah pedal in the PedalBoard plugin. Turn off 'Map Parameter".

How to configure email notification for Attestation?

Hi to everyone
I have configure an attestation process and its working now, but i would like to know how to configure an email notification sent to invited reviewer or particular user based on certain actions when reviewer submit as certify, reject or delegated.
Thanks in advance.

There are certain built-in templates for notifications when assigned, delegated, declined, invalid list of reviewers..etc (http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B32479_01/doc.903/b32450/attestation.htm#sthref283).
But I am not aware of notifications based on reviewer's response CERTIFY/REJECT. Not sure if this is an out-of-the-box feature, but you could have a custom task based on the AttestationOperationsIntf class to get this implemented.

How to schedule restart of Workflow notification mailer?

We are facing this issue in all environments including production;
Inbound IMAP Notification emails are pending in the INBOX folder of the mail box. These moves to PROCESS folder only after restart of the 'WORKFLOW NOTIFICATION MAILER' every 3 to 4 hours.
I have raised an SR with Oracle support for a solution.
For this temporary workaround of restarting the Notificaiton mailer, I want to know how can I schedule the automatic restart of the 'WORKFLOW NOTIFICATION MAILER', Please advice.

Sami,

Need help with Workflow notification mailer setup

Hi all,
I have the following requirement from my client:
"IT has a project request from the Accounting Department to automate payments for Canadian vendors. One of the things that will need to happen on this project is setting up the Workflow Notification Mailer in AP so emails can be sent to vendors notifying them of payment. We only want to support Canadian vendors – payment processing for US vendors will continue to be handled as it is today."
Please let me know how this can be done as I have no knowledge of setting up workflow notification mailer for a particular item.
Thanks.

Lot more information in Oracle Applications System Admin guide. To process messages from only a given itemtype you will use Correlation ID parameter of the mailer. But there are lot of other things that you should consider for such a set up. You would be having a build up of messages in WF_NOTIFICATION_OUT queue that you may want to manually take care of cleaning up.

How to configure email server so that I can reply without "relaying" issues

I've setup the Snow Leopard Server 10.6 and setup the email server. The problem we have is that when a user sends an email using an ISP other than the one where the server is connected, or replys to an email using a different ISP it gets bounced with the message that our server doesn't allow relaying. That is correct. We didn't set it up to relay because of concerns that we might be blacklisted as a spammer. Can you tell me how to configure the email server settings so we don't have this bounce problem and can send and reply using our domain.com email address regardless of the ISP we're connect to? Thanks

Such a seemingly innocuous question. If only the answer were that simple.
There are many factors in getting a working mail server.
For one, if you expect to receive incoming mail for your domain you will need a static IP address with matching forward and reverse DNS entries. You might already have this, or you might not. You don't say anything about your network environment to know.
Once you've addressed the network side of things there are two common elements to implement.
First is you tell the server about your local networks - the ones that you trust users on. Typically this is your private LAN (e.g. a 192.168.x.x network) where your users are. This works well for an office environment and lets users send mail unhindered, but doesn't cater to remote users (you probably cannot whitelist all the remote user's IP addresses, especially those that are mobile).
For those users you implement SMTP Authentication. This ensures the mail client authenticates to the server using a valid username and password. If your user can authenticate then you inherently trust them and allow the mail to be relayed. If the user is remote and cannot authenticate then they're out of luck.
All of this can be configured in Server Admin.

How to configure sync with my local ftp server?

I have used XMarks since now because it hallow me to synchronize my bookmarks with my local server. Now XMarks don't work anymore because it's not more possible to synchronize the passwords.
Any other alternative imposes to use an external server and I don't want to use an external server. My data must remain on my machine it's absolutely excluded that i use an external unknown server for this.
The only solution must be a free solution (a real free solution) and the firefox synchronization seems to me the best/only one.
But I've not found how to configure it to use my own server.
So how to do it, where are the options to the synchronizer to give my own ftp server or whatever other server it needs?

iAS 6.0 sp4 officially does only support iPlanet Directory Server 5.0 sp1 and 4.13.
For more details visit: http://docs.iplanet.com/docs/manuals/ias/60/sp4/ig/prep.htm#42084
I guess, you can specify the directory server during the time of installation.
Thanks,
Rakesh.
