4 Configuring a Standalone SOA Domain

This chapter discusses how to configure a Standalone SOA Domain.

4.1 Installation Overview

Install and start the database
Install JDK for the SOA domain
Install Oracle Fusion Middleware Infrastructure (includes WebLogic Server)
Install SOA Suite

4.1.1 Installing the Server JDK

The application server software for AgileToEbiz PIP requires a 64-bit JDK be installed in order to perform the installation. Download and install a supported JDK from the downloads link on the Oracle Technology Network website.

4.1.2 Installing Oracle SOA Suite

The AgileToEbiz PIP should be deployed on SOA Server, and SOA Server requires that Oracle Fusion Middleware Infrastructure 12.2.1.1, which includes Oracle WebLogic Server, be installed before installing the SOA Suite.

To install Oracle Fusion Middleware Infrastructure 12.2.1.1

Download the fmw_12.2.1.1.0_infrastructure.jar file from the Oracle Technology Network website. Pack to your machine.
Open a command window and set JAVA_HOME to the location of the previously installed JDK
Run the following command: %JAVA_HOME\bin\java -jar fmw_12.2.1.1.0_instrastructure.jar.
Click Next.
Type the path that you want to install the Oracle Fusion Middleware Infrastructure and make a note of this location because you will need it later during the installation.
Click Next on all panels until Installation Summary.
Click Finish to complete the installation.

To Install Oracle SOA Suite 12.2.1.1

Copy the Oracle SOA Suite 12.2.1.1.0 (fmw_12.2.1.1.0_soa_quickstart.jar and fmw_12.2.1.1.0_soa_quickstart2.jar) files from the Agile Product Lifecycle Management Integration Pack for Oracle E-Business Suite Package. Pack to your machine.
Open a command window and set JAVA_HOME to the location of the previously installed JDK.
Run the following command: %JAVA_HOME\bin\java -jar fmw_12.2.1.1.0_soa_quickstart.jar.
Click Next.
Type the path that you installed the Oracle Fusion Middleware Infrastructure and make a note of this location because you will need it later during the installation.
Click Next on all panels until Installation Summary.
Click Finish to complete the installation.

4.1.3 Running the Repository Creation Utility

The Repository Creation Utility (RCU) creates database schemas required by Oracle Fusion Middleware Infrastructure. It must be run before creating the soa domain.

Note:

Creating the SOA Erequires fresh RCU schemas. If a previously installed environment is being reinstalled, then its associated RCU repository must be dropped and recreated before recreating SOA domain.

To Create the schema using RCU:

In a command window, change to the directory, ORACLE_HOME\oracle_common\bin.

ORACLE_HOME is the location of the Oracle Fusion Middleware Infrastructure 12.2.1.1

Run the following commands for Windows and UNIX:
```
Windows: rcu.bat 
Linux: ./rcu 
```
On the Welcome page, click Next.
On the Create Repository page, select System Load and Product Load and then click Next.
On the Database Connection Details page, enter the RCU database connection information. You can use the database to host the RCU schemas. Click Next.
On the Select Components page, type a prefix for schemas that you want to create. You should consider setting the RCU schema prefix to the soa domain schema name so it is clear with which soa domain schema the RCU schemas are associated. Make a note of the schema prefix or names because they are needed during creating soa domain.

Select the following repository components under AS Common Schemas:

Common Infrastructure Services (selected by default) 
User Messaging Services 
Metadata Services 
Weblogic Services 
Oracle Platform Security Services 
Audit Services 
Audit Services Append
Audit Services Viewer
SOA Infrastructure

Click Next.On the Schema Passwords page, type the password that should used for all schemas. You can also type different passwords for each schema.
ClickNext.

A table of default and temp Tablespaces is displayed on the Map Tablespaces page.
Click Next.
Click Create to complete the RCU installation.

4.1.4 Running the Config Script to Create SOA Domain

The config script creates soa domain. It must be run before installing AgileToEbiz PIP.

To Create the SOA Domain using Config:

In a command window, change to the directory, ORACLE_HOME\oracle_common\common\bin.

ORACLE_HOME is the location of the Oracle Fusion Middleware Infrastructure 12.2.1.1

Run the following commands for Windows and UNIX:
```
Windows: config.bat 
Linux: ./config.sh
```
On the Welcome page, select Create a new domain, change the domain name to soa_domain by modify the location from base_domain to soa_domain, then click Next.

Select the following components under Available Templates:

Basic Weblogic Server Domain - 12.2.1.1.0 [wlserver]* (selected by default)
Oracle SOA Suite - 12.2.1.1.0 [soa]
Oracle Enterprise Manager - 12.2.1.1.0 [em]
Oracle WSM Policy Manager - 12.2.1.1 [oracle_common]
Oracle JRF  - 12.2.1.1.0 [oracle_common]
Weblogic Coherence Cluster Extension - 12.2.1.1.0 [wlserver]

Click Next. Keep default for Application Location Page, then Click Next.
Type the password twice, then Click Next.
Change the Domain Mode to Production, then Click Next.
Type in the RCU Data which you created in above section, Click Get RCU Configuration button, make sure the connection is success, then Click Next.
Keep default for JDBC Component Schema, Click Next.
Wait for the JDBC Component Schema Test to complete, then Click Next.
Keep default for Keystore, Click Next.
Enable Administration Server, Node Manager and Topology in Advanced Configuration, then Click Next.
Update Listen Address to hostname, then Click Next.
Type in Node Manager Credentials: Username and Password, then Click Next.
Update Listen Address to hostname, then Click Next.
Click Next for Clusters Page
Keep default for CoherenceCluster, Click Next.

Click Add button, switch to Unix Machine tab for Linux:

Optional: update the Name (for example: PIP )
Update Node Manager Listen Address to hostname

Click Next. Add AdminServer and soa_server1 to the created machine PIP.
Keep default for Virtual Targets, Click Next.
Keep default for Paritions, Click Next.
Click Create to create the SOA domain.
