2 Installing JCA Resource Adapter

This document explains how to install JCA Resource Adapter on your Oracle Communications Billing and Revenue Management (BRM) system.

System Requirements

JCA Resource Adapter is available for the Oracle Linux operating system.

The adapter must be deployed on a J2EE 1.4-compliant application server that has implemented the JCA 1.5 Specification. The adapter runs only in a managed environment.

To install JCA Resource Adapter:

  1. Install JCA Resource Adapter. For instructions, see "Installing Individual BRM Components" in BRM Installation Guide.

  2. Grant read privileges to the pending extended architecture (XA) transaction database views for each BRM database user:

    1. Using SQL*Plus, log in to your database as the SYSDBA user:

      sqlplus sys@databaseAlias as sysdba

      where databaseAlias is the database alias of your BRM database.

    2. Grant read privileges to the pending XA transaction views:

      SQL> GRANT SELECT ON DBA_2PC_PENDING TO user;
      SQL> GRANT SELECT ON DBA_PENDING_TRANSACTIONS TO user;

      where user is the name of a BRM database user.

    3. Exit SQL*Plus.

    4. Stop and restart the BRM database to initialize the database instance with your changes.

Your JCA Resource Adapter installation is now complete.
