Installing the Provisioning Service

The Provisioning Service is installed as an application on Oracle WebLogic Server.

Separate Provisioning Service WebLogic installation packages are available for Windows and Linux. Both packages contain the following files and subdirectories:

eidProvisioningTemplate.jar
This file is the domain template used in the basic installation process.
install.py
doc
This directory contains the release notes and Licensing Guide for the Provisioning Service.

Recommended practice is to install the Provisioning Service after installing Endeca Server and Studio.

In production environments, the Provisioning Service should be installed on a separate machine from other Oracle Endeca Information Discovery products, such as Endeca Server and Studio. Also, when installing the WebLogic Server for the Provisioning Service in production environments, install the additional database drivers, which includes the MySQL driver.

In other environments (evaluation, training, development, and demonstration), the Provisioning Service can be installed in the same machine and WebLogic Server as other Oracle Endeca Information Discovery components, although the Provisioning Service still requires a unique WebLogic domain.
