    -l \<AIA_HOME>\pips\PLM4PEbizOPM\DeploymentPlans\PLM4PEbizOPM.log
    

    Note:

    In Windows 2008, 2008 R2 and Vista, run the command prompt as an administrator (elevated mode). If the command prompt is invoked in normal mode, the PIPs are not displayed.

  3. Review the log file in the location specified in the command to verify successful deployment.

Oracle AIA ships artifacts in AIA Lifecycle Workbench which can be used in your integrations. These artifacts are created using FMW technologies such as BPEL and Mediator and are natively supported by AIA Foundation Pack tools such as Project Lifecycle Workbench, Harvester, Deployment Generator, AIA Deployment Driver (ADD). These are called native artifacts and they include SOA artifact types such as composites, DataSources, DVM, xRef, and so on. These artifacts can be modified or new natively supported artifacts can be added using the AIA Lifecyle Workbench and a BOM.xml file can be generated.

AIA PIP development teams, most often, also require deployment of artifact types that are beyond what is supported by the Project Lifecycle Workbench and AIA Harvester. For instance, integration may require artifacts such as, Java applications, Shell Scripts, ANT based build scripts which constitute part of integration landscape in addition to the artifacts that are delivered by AIA. AIA also supports deployment of these supplementary artifacts. However, you must modify and add new non native artifacts outside AIA Lifecycle Workbench.

For more information on deploying artifacts, see Oracle Fusion Middleware Developer's Guide for Oracle Application Integration Architecture Foundation Pack, "Generating Deployment Plans and Deploying Artifacts".

26.3 Performing Postdeployment Configurations

Agile PLM for Process applies HTTP basic authentication to handle AIA syndication result messages by an Agile PLM for Process host account. You must add the Agile PLM for Process credential to Fusion Middleware for the HTTP basic authentication connection.

To configure credential:

  1. Log in to the Oracle Enterprise Manager Fusion Middleware Control.

  2. Navigate to WebLogic Domain, soa_domain, Securities, Credentials.

  3. Check whether the Map with name oracle.wsm.security exists in Credentials.

    If it does not exist, create a Map with name oracle.wsm.security.

  4. Create a key in oracle.wsm.security map with name PLM4P_CSSServices_BasicHttpBinding_ICSSServices. Select the type as password and enter the Agile PLM for Process host user name and password.

  5. Click OK.

26.4 Verifying Deployment

To verify the Design to Release: Agile PLM for Process - OPM PIP deployment:

  1. Open the log files from the following location and look for warnings and error messages:

    • For Linux, Solaris SPARC, HP-UX and IBM AIX Based Systems: Review the install log located at <AIA_HOME>/aia_instances/<instance name>/logs to verify that the PIP is successfully installed.

    • For Microsoft Windows: Review the install log located at <AIA_HOME>\aia_instances\<instance name>\logs to verify that the PIP is successfully installed.

  2. Confirm that the Design to Release: Agile PLM for Process - OPM PIP services were installed.

    1. Navigate to the Oracle Enterprise Manager Fusion Middleware Control (http://<server name>:<port number>/em/).

    2. Log in with the server admin user name. For access details, contact the system administrator.
