Supported Databases for Oracle BPEL Process Manager

Table 2-3 lists information about the Oracle database for your Oracle BPEL Process Manager installation.

You may use your existing Oracle database, if it meets the requirements shown in Table 2-3.

Table 2-3 Supported Oracle Databases

Oracle Database Description
Oracle Database Lite Included on Windows installations of Oracle BPEL Process Manager only.

Oracle Database Lite is best suited for designing a BPEL process and then performing preproduction deployment and testing. Once you are ready to deploy a production version, use the Oracle database.

Refer to the note in this section about multibyte character set support.

Oracle Database 10g
Recommended for UNIX installations and production deployments on all operating systems.
Oracle9i Database release 9.2.0.5.0 or later Supported.


Note:

Oracle Database Lite currently does not support multibyte character sets. Therefore, if your locale requires multibyte support, then use the Oracle database instead of Oracle Database Lite.

Supported Web Browsers for Oracle BPEL Console

Oracle BPEL Console requires Internet Explorer 6.0 SP2.


Note:

Ensure that cookies are enabled in your Web browser. The Oracle BPEL Console caching mechanism uses cookies to identify user sessions.

Preinstallation Tasks for Using an Oracle Database


Note:

If you are using Oracle Database Lite, you can skip this section and proceed to "Installation Tasks for Oracle BPEL Process Manager".

An Oracle database is required to be your dehydration store for all Oracle BPEL Process Manager instances. Oracle Database Lite is automatically installed with Oracle BPEL Process Manager on Windows operating systems only.

For UNIX platforms and if you are using a multibyte character set, you need to configure an Oracle database for your deployed BPEL processes.

Follow these instructions:

Step 1: Install the Oracle Database - If Not Already Installed

An Oracle database is required to be your dehydration store for all Oracle BPEL Process Manager instances. If you already have an Oracle database that meets the requirements, then you do not need to reinstall the database. Otherwise, install or upgrade before you proceed.

Step 2: Run Integration Repository Creation Assistant

Run Integration Repository Creation Assistant (IRCA) to create the database user and schema. IRCA creates the default user orabpel and the default password orabpel on the tablespace ORABPEL that it creates in the Oracle database.

  • You must run IRCA from the host where your Oracle database is installed, and your database must be up and running before you run IRCA.

  • If you already have an Oracle BPEL Process Manager user (orabpel) in the target database, then stop all sessions, activity, and transactions for the user before running IRCA.

  • IRCA is located at the root of the Oracle BPEL Process Manager software media in IRCA.zip.

  • IRCA does not support Oracle Application Server Metadata Repository.

To run IRCA:

  1. Copy the ZIP file to the host where the Oracle database is installed.

  2. Extract the ZIP file to a temp directory of the host system, being sure to preserve path information.

  3. From a command window, run irca.bat on Windows or irca.sh on UNIX.

    IRCA starts and prompts you for information.

  4. Provide the database details as shown in Table 2-4 when prompted. Be sure to record the information that you provide. You must provide this information later when you configure either JBoss Application Server ("Configure the JBoss Application Server") or BEA WebLogic Application Server ("Configure the BEA WebLogic Application Server") to use the Oracle database as the dehydration store.


    Important:

    Change the orabpel user password after you run IRCA, and make a note of your new password.

    Table 2-4 IRCA Prompts for Information

    Prompt Description Example
    Enter Database Oracle Home Your Oracle_Home C:\OraHome_1\
    Enter JDK 1.4 location <default path> Accept the default path for the Oracle database. Otherwise, if you downloaded JDK 1.4 separately, then give its location. C:\oracle\product\10.1.0\Db_1\jdk
    Enter database host [localhost] The full name or IP address of your database host. hr1-pc.us.acme.com

    or

    137.1.18.228

    Enter database port [1521] The database listener port. The default is 1521. 1521
    Enter database service name [orcl] The service name that you specified when you installed the database. The default service name is orcl, which may be prepended to the fully qualified domain name (FQDN) for your database.

    Note that this is not the SID.

    If you are not sure, then run the SQL*Plus command show parameter service_names.

    orcl

    or

    orcl.us.acme.com

    Enter sys password The database sys user password. 8x9cv55

    Note: This is just an example. The password to enter is the one you specified for this account either during or after Oracle database installation.

Troubleshooting for Oracle BPEL Process Manager

This section contains troubleshooting tips and information for issues that you can encounter.

Creating the ORABPEL Tablespace Manually

In environments where your data files are not stored as regular text, create the ORABPEL tablespace prior to running IRCA. For example, if your data files reside on a raw file system, or Veritas, then IRCA cannot create the ORABPEL tablespace. However, if you manually create the tablespace and then run IRCA, it automatically detects that the tablespace exists and continues to configure the user and schema. Note that IRCA runs properly with Automatic Storage Management (ASM).

To create the ORABPEL tablespace manually, use the following SQL statements:

CREATE TABLESPACE ORABPEL
        DATAFILE '/dev/vx/rdsk/dg2/1024m_6' SIZE 100M
        AUTOEXTEND ON NEXT 30M MAXSIZE UNLIMITED;
