This tutorial walks you through installation of the OES Administration Server. At the completion of this task, you’ll be able to start the server and launch the Entitlements Administration Application.
Note: | In order to follow the steps in this tutorial, you must have already installed the application server and the database. |
After installing the database used as the policy store, you must add a user account that is needed to run the Administration Server installation program. This is performed with tool that is downloadable from the OTN site.
After obtaining the tool, perform the following steps:
The script file name is OES10gR3_DBConfigTool_win32.zip
(Windows) or OES10gR3_DBConfigTool_unix.zip
(UNIX and Linux).
DBConfig.bat|sh
in an editor and set the following properties:ales320_DBConfigTool_win32.zip
or ales320_DBConfigTool_unix.tar.gz
(Pointbase) C:\bea\weblogic92\common\eval\pointbase\lib\pbclient.jar
(MS-SQL) C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server 2005 JDBC Driver\sqljdbc_1.2\enu\sqljdbc.jar
dbconfig.bat
or dbconfig.sh
on a command line. The program issues a number of prompts to answer.

The program takes several minutes to install the files and displays a status bar showing progress.
A command window will open and notices about server starts and the schema addition will appear. This may take 5 minutes or more.
If you just finished installing the server as described above, the server should already be running and you can launch the Entitlements Administration Application as described in the next section. Otherwise, to start the server on Windows:
To launch the Entitlements Administration Application:
