Oracle® Real User Experience Insight Accelerator for Oracle E-Business Suite

Release Notes

Release 5.1 for Linux x86-64

E15348-01

July 2009

This package introduces functionality to extend your Oracle Real User Experience Insight installation with specific support for the monitoring of Oracle E-Business Suite (EBS) applications. The functionality provided in this package is specific to Oracle Real User Experience Insight release 5.1 (or any higher maintenance release). If you upgrade your Oracle Real User Experience Insight installation to a higher version, you will also need to upgrade to the latest version of this Oracle E-Business Suite accelerator package.

This Oracle Real User Experience Insight accelerator package enables out-of-the-box monitoring of EBS modules. This monitoring supports user session tracking, the discovery of end-user performance issues, and the identification of application issues associated EBS modules running both the OA and JTT frameworks, as well as Oracle Forms applications running in servlet mode. It automatically discovers all installed EBS modules, and translates network objects to business functions. This facilitates the measurement and monitoring of real-user transactions, from initial query to their commit as part of business transactions. Individual user actions are automatically matched to the correct module, form, or formblock in order to provide contextual analysis. This state-of-the-art monitoring solution supports the creation of KPIs for critical packaged applications, and the analysis of real-user business transactions.

The monitoring support provided by this accelerator package is designed to support OA, JTT, and Forms applications for EBS 10.1.2 and higher.

The minimum Oracle Real User Experience Insight installation within which this accelerator package can be deployed is release 5.1. For information on specific releases, please refer to the relevant Release Notes.

Oracle Real User Experience Insight requires the enabling of End User or Chronos Monitoring. This is Oracle Forms functionality that triggers additional information messages to be sent by the applet to the Web server. These additional messages are required to retrieve screen definitions (such as formname) that are otherwise not sent over the connection. End User Monitoring functionality was introduced in Forms 6i as Chronos messaging. In release 10.1.2 and higher, this functionality is called End User Monitoring. Depending on the Oracle Forms version you are using, you will need to enable one of these facilities. The procedure to do so is fully described in the Oracle Real Experience Insight Accelerator for Oracle E-Business Suite Guide.
