How to Deploy the Business Intelligence and Forms Topology

Upon completion of this task, each target host has the following components:

• An MRInstaller component on the target host that you selected for the plan

• An IDInstaller component on the specified host

• A J2EESSONWCInstaller component on the specified host

• A J2EESSOInstaller component on the specified host

• A J2EEHT virtual host that is associated with the J2EESSOInstaller component

• An Oc4jHolder component that is installed inside the J2EEHT virtual host

• An Oc4jHolderHT virtual host that is associated with the Oc4jHolder component

• An Oc4jInstance component that is installed inside the Oc4jHolderHT virtual host

• An Oc4jInstanceHT virtual host that is associated with the Oc4jInstance component

• A BIInstaller component in the specified host

Steps

1. Create the session variables.

2. In the Common Tasks section of the N1 Grid SPS browser interface, select Oracle App Server 10g.

3. In the Business Intelligence and Forms Topology section of the Oracle App Server 10g Common Tasks page, click Install.

4. Click Run.

5. Choose variables to use for the MRInstaller component in this plan.

   • To use an existing variables set, select a name from the drop-down menu in the MRInstaller component row of the Plan Parameters table.

   • To create a new variables set, click Select from List in the MRInstaller component row of the Plan Parameters table.

     1. Click Create Set.

     2. Type a name for the variables set.

     3. If a component already exists on this host for which the default value for ORACLE_HOME_NAME is used, define a value for the variable ORACLE_HOME_NAME.

        ---

        Note –

        Two components installed in the same physical host cannot have the same ORACLE_HOME_NAME.

        ---

     4. Define a value for the variable szIdentityAdminContext.

     5. Save the variables set.

     6. Select the variables set that you just saved from the drop-down menu in the MRInstaller component row of the Plan Parameters table.

6. Repeat step 5 to redefine ORACLE_HOME_NAME in IDInstaller, J2EESSONWCInstaller, J2EESSOInstaller, and BIInstaller components, if needed

7. To use a holder name other than the default, choose variables to use for the Oc4jHolder component.

8. To use an instance name other than the default, choose variables to use for the Oc4jInstance component.

9. To select the target host, click on Select from List and choose the target host.

   Select one host on which you want the MRInstaller component to be installed.

10. Verify that the target host set is not selected.

    The checkbox in front of the target host set should be empty. Otherwise, the plan will try to install in the host set plus the hosts you selected in the previous step

11. In the Plan Variables section of the page, type the name of the hosts on which you want to install the IDInstaller, J2EESSONWCInstaller, J2EESSOInstaller, and BIInstaller components.

    Use only one host for each component.

    ---

    Note –

    Place each component on a separate host.

    ---

12. Click on Run Plan (includes preflight)

    Upon successful completion of the plan, all instances will be running.
