The TMS Front End includes the TMS Forms Server component, the TMS Reports Server component, and the TMS Server (database server code) component.
Note:
You do not need to have an installed Oracle database to create a Forms Server. However, you need a supported Oracle database to verify the installation.This chapter includes the following topics:
When you run Oracle Universal Installer to install TMS, you select the product to install. As shown in Figure 5-1, you can select to install the TMS Front End, the TMS Reports Server, or the TMS Server (database server code).
Installing the TMS Front End installs the TMS Forms Server component. In addition, when you select to install the TMS Front End, you can optionally install the TMS Reports Server and the TMS Server at the same time. See Figure 5-1. Choose to include the Reports Server if you want to install the Reports Server on the same computer. For TMS, you always install the TMS Server (database server code) on the same computer as the TMS Front End.
For information about installing these components, see the following sections:
Section 5.2, "Installing the TMS Front End," which includes the TMS Forms Server.
Section 5.4, "Installing the TMS Database Server Code," which is also called the TMS Server.
In addition to installing the TMS Front End components, you can select to install a new TMS database, upgrade existing TMS databases, and register TMS databases integrated with Oracle Clinical. See Chapter 6, "Creating a TMS Database" and Chapter 7, "Upgrading Oracle Thesaurus Management System to Release 4.6.2" for details.
