Hardware

Oracle Applications 12.2.9 and Oracle Database 19c can be installed on the same or different servers.

In addition, you need one computer running on Windows for use in installing Oracle Thesaurus Management System (Oracle TMS). You will not need this computer for Oracle LSH after installing Oracle TMS except to install any Oracle TMS patches that may be required in the future. You need at least one Windows computer if you plan to use Oracle Analytics Server to define Business Areas and create data visualizations (Oracle Analytics Server Answers). You can use the same Windows computer for Oracle Analytics Server and Oracle TMS.

Note:

Oracle LSH does not support a Windows server for SAS.

In an installation where the application and database tiers are installed on different computers, those computers are typically connected by a local area network (LAN), while the application-tier computer is connected to clients in a wide area network (WAN).

Using Real Application Clusters (RAC) to install the database over several nodes is optional.

Oracle LSH uses Oracle XML Publisher (which is bundled with Oracle Applications) to generate PDF-format Report Sets. If you plan to use this feature and if your Report Sets are very large, you may want to dedicate one node to Oracle XML Publisher processing.

For system hardware requirements see the documentation for each component; see Assemble the Documentation.

In addition:

  • The TCP/IP network connection to the server should be at least at 1 GB.
  • Be sure to allow for growth in database storage capacity.
  • Oracle recommends installing a test environment as similar as possible to the production environment, including all operating system and other patches and updates.
