• Make a backup of any customizations. If you do not create a backup, your customizations are overwritten.

  For more information about backing up your customizations, see Section Section 5.1.

5.1 How to Create Backups of your Customizations

This section discusses the key tasks that you must perform before you perform the installation of the media pack or when you apply patches to your existing PIPs:

• Back up custom extensible style sheet language transformations (XSLTs): These are the extensions performed on the AIA Transformation style sheet. Oracle AIA does not contain any XSLTs for its components and utilities. Because the process content is delivered only in PIPs, you must manually back up the XSLTs if you have developed any for the custom integrations, and reapply them as a post install step.

• Back up custom routing rules in the (EBS): If you have defined any routing rules, on any of the EBS available as part of the PIP, on top of the rules provided out of the box, you must manually take a back up of the EBS. You must merge the EBS manually as a post installation step.

• Back up the AIAConfigurationProperties.xml file: This file is located in the $AIA_INSTANCE/AIAMetaData/config folder. Merge custom inclusions in the CONFIG file and change properties as required after installation.

Note:

Ensure that you check My Oracle Support for the most current list of patches.
