Administrator and Implementor Roadmap
11g Release 1 (11.1.1.5)
E17329-01
August 2011
An Oracle Fusion Applications environment consists of different Oracle Fusion Applications product families. Product families are comprised of one or more Java EE applications specific to Oracle Fusion Applications.
Each product family is built on the Oracle Fusion Middleware stack with an Oracle WebLogic Server domain with Java components, system components, and various Oracle Fusion Middleware components. For an overview of the architecture, see "Oracle Fusion Applications Architecture Design" and "Key Concepts"in the Oracle Fusion Applications Concepts Guide. Therefore, it is important to consider your entire Oracle Fusion Applications environment when installing, administering, and implementing Oracle Fusion Applications.
This document provides roadmaps for the following areas:
Table 1 describes the high-level tasks for managing the implementation lifecycle for Oracle Fusion Applications. It also provides information on where to get more details for each task.
Table 1 Tasks for Oracle Fusion Applications
| Task | Description | Documentation |
|---|---|---|
|
Task 1: Learn the concepts |
Determine your installation options and ensure that your system environment meets the general installation requirements for Oracle Fusion Applications and Oracle Fusion Middleware components. |
|
|
Task 2: Complete planning requirements |
Determine your installation options and ensure that your system environment meets the general installation requirements for Oracle Fusion Applications and Oracle Fusion Middleware components. |
"Preparing for an Installation" in the Oracle Fusion Applications Installation Guide |
|
Task 3: Install Oracle Fusion Applications |
Provisioning is the entire set of operations required to install, configure, and deploy applications product offerings from a system point of view:
|
Oracle Fusion Applications Installation Guide to provision a new environment Oracle Fusion Middleware Enterprise Deployment Guide for Oracle Identity Management (Oracle Fusion Applications Edition) to learn how to install the Oracle Identity Management stack for Oracle Fusion Applications Oracle Fusion Applications Enterprise Deployment Guide to learn how to install an enterprise topology for a scalable, Oracle Fusion Customer Relationship Management production environment |
|
Task 4: Apply patches |
It is necessary to perform various maintenance actions on your applications, their middleware dependencies, and their database components. Maintenance actions include fixing issues that affect the way the applications perform, adding new functionality and features, updating to a higher maintenance level, or providing interoperability to new technology stacks. Patches may be required for maintenance of middleware artifacts, database artifacts, or both. |
|
|
Task 5: Perform post-installation configuration |
Perform post-installation tasks, such as configuration for specific products and applications. |
|
|
Task 6: Manage the Oracle Fusion Applications environment |
Administer the Oracle Fusion Applications environment by starting servers, managing ports, monitoring performance, configure components, managing logs, backing up and recovering your environment, and managing incidents. |
|
|
Task 7: Implement Oracle Fusion applications |
At the end of the installation process, the Oracle Fusion Applications system is operational and available for login. However, there are setup steps that are necessary for the applications. You perform these tasks with the Oracle Fusion Functional Setup Manager. |
Oracle Fusion Applications Information Technology Management, Implement Applications Guide |
|
Task 8: Customize Oracle Fusion Applications |
Implement customizations to the Oracle Fusion Applications. |
|
|
Task 9: Configure Oracle Transactional Business Intelligence |
Perform current-state analysis of the Oracle Fusion applications with Oracle Transactional Business Intelligence, which is built on Oracle BI Enterprise Edition. |
Oracle Fusion Applications Administrator's Guide for Transactional Business Intelligence |
|
Task 10: Configure security |
Secure Oracle Fusion Applications by reviewing the security reference implementation of predefined roles, policies, and settings. Manage roles and manage user access through role provisioning. |
|
|
Task 11: Configure for an enterprise deployment |
Apply Oracle-recommended blueprints to product families to ensure security of all invocations, maximize hardware resources, and provide a reliable, standards-compliant system for enterprise computing with a variety of applications. |

Table 2 describes the specific tasks for administering Oracle Fusion Applications. It also provides information on where to get more details for each task.
Table 2 Detailed Roadmap Tasks for Administration
| Task | Description | Documentation |
|---|---|---|
|
Task 1: Start environment |
In the course of normal IT operations, it is common to shut down computers and start them back up. Because components within Oracle Fusion Applications are dependent on one another, it is important to start and stop components in the proper order. For example, when stopping the entire environment, you stop Oracle HTTP Server to discontinue incoming requests before stopping other components. |
The following topics in the Oracle Fusion Applications Administrator's Guide:
|
|
Task 2: Configure ports |
The Oracle Database and Oracle Fusion Middleware components and services use ports. Most port numbers are assigned during installation. As an administrator, it is important to know the port numbers used by these services, and to ensure that the same port number is not used by two services on your host. |
"Viewing and Changing Ports" in the Oracle Fusion Applications Administrator's Guide |
|
Task 3: Configure passwords |
Change the passwords for the various accounts to secure the administrative environment. |
"Changing Passwords" section in the Oracle Fusion Applications Administrator's Guide |
|
Task 4: Manage the Oracle Database |
Manage the Oracle Database by reviewing the initialization parameters, database storage structure, memory allocation, unlock, and reset passwords for predefined database users. |
"Managing the Oracle Database" section in the Oracle Fusion Applications Administrator's Guide |
|
Task 5: Configure security |
Configure security features available to all applications that run on Oracle Fusion Middleware, including:
|
The following topics in the Oracle Fusion Applications Administrator's Guide: Oracle Fusion Applications Security Guide for comprehensive coverage of security administration |
|
Task 6: Monitor your environment |
Monitor the health of the Oracle Fusion Applications environment and ensure that it performs optimally. |
The following chapters in the Oracle Fusion Applications Administrator's Guide: |
|
Task 7: Manage log files and diagnostics information |
configure log settings and use log files to track normal operations of your Oracle Fusion applications. Log files can also be used for troubleshooting. The amount of information that Oracle Fusion Applications record in log files depends partly on how you configure your system and partly on how Oracle constructed each application. This chapter also discusses how you can use and organize diagnostic tests to help you verify that your Oracle Fusion applications are operating correctly. |
"Managing Oracle Fusion Applications Log Files and Diagnostic Tests" chapter in the Oracle Fusion Applications Administrator's Guide |
|
Task 8: Backup your environment |
Back up your entire Oracle Fusion Applications environment at once, then periodically. If a loss occurs, you can restore your environment to a consistent state. |
"Backing Up and Recovering Oracle Fusion Applications" chapter in the Oracle Fusion Applications Installation Guide |
|
Task 9: Configure load balancing |
Configure load balancing between different components or applications. |
"Configuring High Availability and Scaling Out Oracle Fusion Applications" chapter in the Oracle Fusion Applications Installation Guide |
|
Task 10: Configure Oracle Transactional Business Intelligence |
Configure Oracle Transactional Business Intelligence to perform real-time analysis of the Oracle Fusion applications. |
Oracle Fusion Applications Administrator's Guide for Transactional Business Intelligence |
|
Task 11: Configure Oracle Business Intelligence Applications and extend the BI domain |
After the Oracle Fusion applications are running, configure the Oracle Business Intelligence Applications applications for analyzing historical data. This process includes creating the repositories required by Oracle Business Intelligence Applications and extending the BI domain to include the BI components for the applications. |
