ebs Virtual Host



Are There any Oracle Best Practice Documents for Installing the E-Business Suite on a Sun Cluser HA for Failover? (Doc ID 1293347.1)
Implementing Virtual Host, Concurrent Managers and EM DBconsole on Oracle Applications R12 (Doc ID 603883.1)

Section 1: Setting up the host and Application tier

Steps to perform in the target environment:

Modify the hosts file

192.168.154.128 alias-linux1.nl.oracle.com phys-linux1.nl.oracle.com alias-linux1 phys-linux1
Or:
192.168.154.128 phys-linux1.nl.oracle.com alias-linux1.nl.oracle.com phys-linux1 alias-linux1

Configure the Database tier

cd <RDBMS ORACLE_HOME>/appsutil/clone/bin
perl adcfgclone.pl dbTier

Configure the Application tier

cd <COMMON_TOP>/clone/bin
perl adcfgclone.pl appsTier
(Use the alias hostname for the Target hostname, and for Target system database server node its actual name)

Set the new environment Finish the cloning

cd <appl_top>
. ./APPS<sid>_<alias-hostname>.env

Section 2: Configuring Concurrent Processing

The Concurrent Managers require the physical hostname to be registered and enabled for Concurrent Processing. This can be done using the following procedure:

Modify the setup for Concurrent Processing

Perform the following steps in Oracle Applications Manager (OAM):

Note: Ignore any error "writing Context Configuration files back to file system" when saving - this will be fixed later by running AutoConfig.

Stop all Application tier processes

• Add the physical node if not present yet:
  • Site Map / Hosts / Register
  • Insert the Name and Platform
  • Click Save and OK
• Update the Concurrent Processing node to be the physical node:
  • Site Map / AutoConfig / Edit Parameters for the Applications Tier / System / oa_cp_server
  • For the Concurrent Processing Host insert the physical hostname
  • Click Save and OK
• Make sure the db_host points to the Database server node:
  • Site Map / AutoConfig / Edit Parameters for the Applications Tier / System / oa_db_server
  • Modify the Data Server Host to the hostname of the DB server if required
  • If changes were made click Save and OK

cd $ADMIN_SCRIPTS_HOME
./adstpall.sh <apps-user>/<apps-password>

Enable the physical node as concurrent processing node

sqlplus <apps-username>/<apps-password>
(replace PHYS-LINUX1 with the actual physical hostname in UPPERCASE)
SQL> UPDATE fnd_nodes SET support_cp='Y' WHERE node_name='PHYS-LINUX1';
SQL> COMMIT;
