This chapter covers the following topics:
You can install Oracle Web Services Manager either as part of Oracle Application Server 10g (10.1.3.1.0) or as a standalone product. This guide provides information about installing Oracle WSM as a standalone application. To install Oracle WSM as part of Oracle Application Server 10g (10.1.3.1.0), refer instead to the Oracle Application Server Installation Guide for Microsoft Windows or Oracle Application Server Installation Guide for Linux x86.
In 10g (10.1.3.1.0), Oracle WSM features two installation modes: Basic and Advanced. Information you supply during the installation determines which mode Oracle Universal Installer uses. During the installation, you specify the directory where you want to install Oracle Web Services Manager 10g (10.1.3.1.0). If you specify a new directory, Oracle Universal Installer performs a Basic installation. If you specify an existing Oracle home, it performs an Advanced installation. Both modes install all components on the same machine. Basic and Advanced installations offer different features:
Basic: You use this mode to create a self-contained Oracle WSM deployment. This mode includes Oracle Containers for J2EE. On Windows, this mode also includes a default version of Oracle Database Lite as your database. On Linux, this mode requires a preexisting installation of Oracle Database. This compact deployment is suitable for training, proof-of-concept, and pre-production development purposes, but it is not intended for full-scale production.
Advanced: This mode enables you to install Oracle WSM into an existing Oracle home containing Oracle Application Server 10g (10.1.3.1.0). When you perform an Advanced installation of Oracle WSM, you must specify an existing Oracle Database. After installing Oracle WSM on one host, you can expand your Oracle WSM deployment by adding other instances of Oracle WSM on other hosts. On each host, you perform an Advanced installation into an existing Oracle home containing Oracle Application Server 10g (10.1.3.1.0), and you specify an existing Oracle Database.
Note: The Basic and Advanced installations of Oracle WSM are sometimes referred to, respectively, as the Developer and Production installations. |
Note: The Oracle home must contain an Advanced installation of Oracle Application Server 10g (10.1.3.1.0), as described in the Oracle Application Server Installation Guide for Microsoft Windows or Oracle Application Server Installation Guide for Linux x86. The Advanced installation must include J2EE only, not the entire Oracle SOA suite. |
Note: For installations that require an existing Oracle Database, the following versions are supported:
