Consumers and Administrators

Oracle LSH Consumers, who retrieve information in the form of reports and visualizations, and Oracle LSH Administrators, who perform administrative tasks within Oracle LSH, require the following on their personal computers:

• A Web browser (one of those supported by Oracle Applications)

• Java Virtual Machine (JVM)

Consumers require JVM if they are using Oracle Discoverer Plus to create data visualizations.

Administrators require either JInitiator or JVM to use any of the Oracle Forms screens related to security, to run the post-installation jobs or to set up user accounts or functional roles.

The first time a user opens one of the Oracle Forms screens, the user is prompted to download and install JVM if it is not already installed.

Note:

If you are currently using JInitiator, you can continue to do so.
