Installing Oracle Enterprise Scheduler

Oracle Enterprise Scheduler does not have its own installer, but is installed by the installer of the embedding product such as Oracle SOA Suite. Refer to the embedding product's installation documentation for details.

The IDE is installed by the design time installer of the embedding product (for example, the Oracle SOA Suite design time installer). The installer installs the IDE and automatically configures it to Oracle JDeveloper. Before you run JDeveloper, make sure to set the variable MW_HOME to the middleware home location as required by the IDE.

The Oracle Enterprise Scheduler runtime component is installed by the design time or production installer of the embedding product (for example, Oracle SOA suite). The embedding product may automatically deploy Oracle Enterprise Scheduler, but if it does not, then it can be deployed using the “Oracle Enterprise Scheduler Service Basic" template to a server or cluster. The “Oracle Enterprise Manager Fusion Middleware Control Plugin for ESS" template must be deployed and selected to enable Oracle Enterprise Scheduler functionality in Oracle Enterprise Manager Fusion Middleware Control.

Targeting Oracle Enterprise Scheduler During Domain Creation

If the Oracle Enterprise Scheduler is not automatically targeted by the embedding product, you must select the Oracle Enterprise Scheduler basic template when the domain is created. By default, the Oracle Enterprise Scheduler is targeted to a default server called ess_server1. You can use the following procedure to target it to a different server (for example a SOA server):

  1. When you extend SOA with Oracle Enterprise Scheduler, ess-server1 is created and the ESS-MGD-SVRS server group is targeted to ess_server1 by default. Use the following steps to target Oracle Enterprise Scheduler to soa_server1:

    1. Check ESS-MGD-SVRS for soa_server1.

    2. Uncheck ESS-MGD-SVRS for ess-server1.

    3. Delete ess_server1.

OWSM-PM Targeting With Oracle Enterprise Scheduler

OWSM-PM is intended to be targeted to just one server in a domain. To facilitate this requirement, Oracle Enterprise Scheduler templates no longer target OWSM-PM. If another product in the domain automatically targets OWSM-PM, then there is nothing to do. However, if there are no managed servers in the domain except for Oracle Enterprise Scheduler, or none of these servers has OWSM-PM, then OWSM-PM must be targeted manually.

Targeting OWSM-PM Manually

In the Fusion Middleware Configuration Wizard, select the Managed Servers, Clusters and Coherence check box as shown in Figure 3-1.

On the Managed Server screen, for ess_server1, select the WSMPM-MAN-SVR server group. ESS-MGD-SVRS should already be selected.
