Section 6.3, "Accessing Oracle Real-Time Decisions Client Tools"
Decision Center Internet Explorer client browsers should be configured for optimal performance, as follows:
In Internet Explorer, choose Tools > Internet Options to set options.
On the Advanced tab, deselect Reuse windows for launching shortcuts.
Ensure that cookies are enabled for the browser.
Note:
In order for localized characters (such as inline service choice or attribute names) to display properly in the log files, these files should have UTF-8 encoding. Add the JVM environment variable file.encoding=utf8 (for example, -Dfile.encoding=utf8) to the JVM configuration either by adding the statement to the server startup script or by invoking the parameters at JVM startup. For more information, see also appendix Appendix A, "System Log and Configuration Files".
The Logger attribute of the OracleRTD > SDManagement > SDLogging MBean is a Log4J-type logger (accessible through JMX clients such as JConsole). For full documentation, see the Log4J website at:
http://logging.apache.org/log4j
To change logging configuration parameters:
Start Oracle RTD.
Start JConsole and log in. See Section 11.3, "Accessing JConsole" for more information.
Go to the Oracle RTD > SDManagement > SDLogging MBean.
Change the logging attributes as necessary:
The attributes Priority and InlineServicePriority can be set to DEBUG, INFO, WARN, or ERROR to control the level of logging messages that are written to the server log.
The attribute LogFile determines the location of the server log and is by default set to RTD_HOME\log\server.log.
Press Enter. To cancel your changes, press the Esc key.
Perform the steps in the following sections to start and access the Oracle RTD client tools, such as Decision Studio, Decision Center, and Load Generator. See Section 11.3, "Accessing JConsole" for information about starting the JConsole administration tool.
To access Decision Center, Real-Time Decision Server must be running. Decision Studio and Load Generator can function partially even when Real-Time Decision Server is not running.
This section contains the following topics:
To access Decision Studio, go to the client computer where you installed the Oracle RTD client tools and run RTD_HOME\eclipse\eclipse.exe.
To access Decision Center from any computer, open a Web browser and go to http://server_name:port/ui.
The Oracle RTD application port is typically 8080.
To access Load Generator, go to the client computer where you installed the Oracle RTD client tools and run RTD_HOME\scripts\loadgen.cmd.
