D Create a New Provisioning Plan Screens

This appendix contains descriptions of the interview screens in the Create a New Applications Environment Provisioning Plan option. These screens include:

D.1 Welcome

Welcome Screen. Fully described in the surrounding text.

No action is necessary on this read-only screen.

Click Next to continue.

D.2 Installation Options

Options Screen. Described in surround text.

Select the task that you want to perform from the list of options. When prompted, enter a directory path in the Provisioning Plan field to access a completed plan to use as a base for one of the actions. Or, click Browse to navigate to the plan location.

Click Next to continue.

D.3 Specify Security Updates

Security Screen. Described in surround text.

Set up a notification preference for security-related updates and installation-related information from My Oracle Support. This information is optional.

Click Next to continue.

D.4 Provisioning Configurations

Configurations Screen. Described in surround text.

Select one or more offerings, either within a configuration, or from the list of standalone product offerings.

You can select individual product offerings within a configuration, without selecting all available offerings. When you do, provisioning starts the Managed Servers only for the offerings that you selected. However, because you have specified interdependent details for the entire configuration, you can "turn on" additional functionality later by using the Oracle Fusion Applications Functional Setup Manager to start the other Managed Servers.

Click Details in the message pane to see a breakdown of servers for each offering.

Once you click Next, you cannot change the selections on this screen. To make changes, click Cancel, open a new wizard session, and create a new plan.

Click Next to continue.

D.5 Plan Description

DescriptionScreen. Described in surround text.

Enter descriptive information for this plan. This description is not associated in any way with the executable plan file, or the summary file, that you save at the end of the provisioning plan creation process.

To stop creating this plan and resume later, click Save. This action creates a partial plan. A partial plan cannot be used to provision an environment.

Click Next to continue.

D.6 Installation Location

Credentials Screen. Described in surrounding text.

Specify credentials for the Node Manager and supply the location of the various directories required for installation and configuration actions.

Node Manager Credentials

Provide locations of various directories that the administrator needs access to.

Installation and Configuration

Middleware Dependencies

Oracle Business Intelligence Repository Password

RPD Password: Specify and Confirm a password to allow access to the metadata repository (RPD) for both Oracle Business Intelligence Applications and Oracle Transactional Business Intelligence. The password must be between 8 and 30 characters and contain at least one digit. It can include letters, numbers, pound sign (#), dollar sign ($), or underscore (_).

In addition, if you are provisioning an environment that is pointed to an existing seeded identity management infrastructure, the RPD password must match the one that you specified when identity management was seeded. Provisioning sets up this password, but does not actually access the repository.

If the environment created is Windows-based, the wizard prompts for these values:

Click Next to continue.

D.7 System Port Allocation

Ports Screen. Described in surround text.

Accept the default values or set a custom value for the Applications Base Port. The application domain port ranges are derived from this value. If you change the base port value, the domain port ranges adjust accordingly. Ranges must not overlap and must be set in ascending order.

High and low port ranges are assigned by default to each domain in the Application Domain Port Ranges list. The default range allotment is 399. Each range is arranged sequentially in ascending order; for example, 11601 – 12000 is a valid range.

The values entered on any of the common domain or product domain screens are validated against the ports ranges that you set up on this screen.

Validation rules for port ranges are as follows:

Ports listed under Other Ports are not derived from the Applications Base Port value. These "individual" ports can be defined using custom port values.

To stop creating this plan and resume later, click Save. This action creates a partial plan. A partial plan cannot be used to provision an environment.

Click Next to continue.

Note: The wizard warns if it cannot connect to the database. If this warning represents an exception, you can ignore it and continue creating the plan. However, you must fix all issues before you start to provision an environment. You cannot successfully run provisioning until all validation have passed.

D.9 Schema Passwords

Passwords Screen. Described in surround text.

The database that you installed contains preloaded schemas required for runtime execution. Select one of the following options and enter the database schema passwords that you set up when you installed the database:

To stop creating this plan and resume later, click Save. This action creates a partial plan. A partial plan cannot be used to provision an environment.

Click Next to continue.

Note: The wizard warns if the passwords are not valid and do not allow a connection to the database. If this warning represents an exception, you can ignore it and continue creating the plan. However, you must fix all issues before you start to provision an environment. You cannot successfully run provisioning until all validation have passed.
