Before you use CIM to configure and deploy an application, make sure you have the following prerequisite information. See information about these basic aspects of installation in Installation Procedure.
The path to your application server home directory. For example:
C:\Oracle\Middleware\wlserver_10.3The path to the profile or similar directory for your application. Some application servers do not use profile directories. For example:
C:\Oracle\Middleware\user_projects\domains\base_domainThe username and password for the administration account for your application server. If you have not configured security for your application server, you do not need this information.
The account names, passwords, database/schema names, listening port, and server hostname for each database that your application requires.
The path to the Java DataBase Connectivity (JDBC) driver for your database software.
The password that you will use for the Oracle ATG Web Commerce server administrator account. You will enter this password during database imports.
The password that you will use for the Oracle ATG Web Commerce merchandising user account. You will enter this password during database imports. If you are not using Content Administration, you will not configure this user account.
