For medium to large deployments, Oracle recommends setting up a dedicated node for job services, and disabling job services from running on servers accepting user traffic.
Notes:
- For details on what constitutes a medium or large deployment, see the P6 EPPM Performance and Sizing Guide.
- These instructions assume that you have already configured the server accepting user traffic.
Oracle provides the following options to configure a dedicated node for job services:
- Standalone deployment of p6services.jar. This option provides a simple installation process and runs the job services from an independent java process. See Configuring a Job Services Server Using p6services.jar
- Application Server deployment of p6jobservices.war: This option provides the advantages of deployment to an application server, including remote monitoring of the health of the server, remote management of the server lifecycle, and improved error logging. This option runs job services from an application server instance that will not accept user traffic. See Configuring a Job Services Server Using p6jobservices.war
