A Secondary Topologies for Oracle B2B

This appendix provides alternate topologies for Oracle B2B.

The following topologies are covered in this appendix:

Section A.1, "Oracle SOA Suite, Oracle B2B, and Business Activity Monitoring (BAM) Topology"
Section A.2, "Oracle SOA Suite, Oracle B2B, and Oracle Service Bus Topology"

A.1 Oracle SOA Suite, Oracle B2B, and Business Activity Monitoring (BAM) Topology

This section contains the following topics:

Understanding the Oracle SOA Suite, Oracle B2B, and Business Activity Monitoring Topology
Roadmap for Installing and Configuring the Oracle SOA Suite, B2B, and Business Activity Monitoring Topology

A.1.1 Understanding the Oracle SOA Suite, Oracle B2B, and Business Activity Monitoring Topology

Figure A-1 shows the Oracle SOA Suite, Oracle B2B, and Business Activity Monitoring topology.

Use this topology to implement Oracle Business Activity Monitoring in your Oracle B2B domain. The Oracle Business Activity Monitoring software is targeted to its own cluster; this ensures that there is no resource contention between the Oracle B2B and Oracle Business Activity Monitoring software.

A.1.2 Roadmap for Installing and Configuring the Oracle SOA Suite, B2B, and Business Activity Monitoring Topology

Table A-1 describes the roadmap needed to configure this topology on your system.

Table A-1 Overview of the Installation and Configuration Steps for Oracle SOA Suite, B2B, and Business Activity Monitoring

Task	Description	More Information	Special Instructions
Verify your system environment	Before beginning the installation, verify that the minimum system and network requirements are met.	See Section 1.4.	None.
Obtain the appropriate distribution	Oracle B2B requires an existing Oracle SOA Suite and Oracle Fusion Middleware Infrastructure installation. When you install Oracle SOA Suite, Business Activity Monitoring also gets automatically installed. You must install B2B in the same Oracle home as Oracle Fusion Middleware Infrastructure and Oracle SOA Suite.	See Section 1.5.	You must obtain all distributions of Oracle Infrastructure, Oracle SOA Suite and Business Process Management, and Oracle B2B.
Determine your installation directories	Verify that the directories that will need to be created can be created or accessed by the installer, and exist on systems that meet the minimum requirements.	See "What are the Key Oracle Fusion Middleware Directories?" in Understanding Oracle Fusion Middleware.	None.
Install Oracle Fusion Middleware Infrastructure	Install Oracle Fusion Middleware Infrastructure to create the Oracle home directory for Oracle SOA Suite and B2B.	See Installing and Configuring the Oracle Fusion Middleware Infrastructure.	You do not need to configure Oracle Fusion Middleware Infrastructure.
Install Oracle SOA Suite	Install the Oracle SOA Suite software into the existing Oracle Infrastructure Oracle home.	See Installing and Configuring Oracle SOA Suite and Business Process management.	You do not need to configure Oracle SOA Suite.
Install the Oracle B2B software	Install the Oracle B2B software into the existing Oracle Infrastructure and Oracle SOA Suite Oracle home.	See Chapter 2.	Select B2B on the Installation Type screen.
Create a WebLogic domain	Use the configuration wizard to create and configure the WebLogic domain. Ensure that you select the appropriate options on the configuration screens.	See Chapter 3.	Follow the instructions provided for specific screens in Section A.1.2.1.
Start the servers	Once you complete the domain creation, start the administration and managed servers.	See Section 3.3.	None.
Verify the configuration	Verify to ensure that the domain is configured properly.	See Section 3.3.	None.
Next steps after installing and configuring Oracle B2B.	You can perform administrative as well as management tasks for the domain that you have just configured.	See Chapter 5.	None.

A.1.2.1 Configuration Options to Select for Oracle SOA Suite, Oracle B2B, and Business Activity Monitoring

Almost all of the screens and options that you must select while configuring Oracle SOA Suite, Oracle B2B, and Business Activity Monitoring are identical to the ones provided in Chapter 3. However, there are a couple of screens on which you must select different options, and Table A-2 lists the key screens and options. Ensure that you select the configuration options as provided in this section.

Table A-2 Key Screens and Configuration Options for Oracle SOA Suite, Oracle B2B, and Business Activity Monitoring Topology

Screen	Description
Templates	This screen appears after you start the configuration wizard to create your domain. In addition to the templates listed in Task 2, select Business Activity Monitoring - 12.1.3.0 [soa]
Managed Servers	On the Managed Servers screen (Task 12), two managed servers, `bam_server1` and `soa_server1`, are created. Click Add and create two more managed servers, `bam_server2` and `soa_server2`. Ensure that in the Listen Address drop-down list, you select the IP address of the host on which the Managed Server will reside. Do not use "All Local Addresses." In the Server Groups drop-down list, ensure that `soa_server1` and `soa_server2` are targeted to SOA-MGD-SVRS and `bam_server1` and `bam_server2` to BAM 12-MGD-SVRS-ONLY.
Clusters	On the Clusters screen (Task 13), create two clusters, `soa_cluster1` and `bam_cluster1`.
Assign Servers to Clusters	On this screen (Task 14), assign the servers as given below: `bam_server1` and `bam_server2` to `bam_cluster1` `soa_server1` and `soa_server2` to `soa_cluster1`
Machines	On this screen (Task 16), create two machines, `bam_machine1` and `soa_machine1`.
Assign Servers to Machine	On this screen (Task 17), assign the servers as follows: `AdminServer`, `bam_server1` and `bam_server2` to `bam_machine1`. `soa_server1` and `soa_server2` to `soa_machine1`.

A.2 Oracle SOA Suite, Oracle B2B, and Oracle Service Bus Topology

This section contains the following topics:

Understanding the Oracle SOA Suite, Oracle B2B, and Oracle Service Bus Topology
Roadmap for Installing and Configuring the Oracle SOA Suite, Oracle B2B, and Oracle Service Bus Topology

A.2.1 Understanding the Oracle SOA Suite, Oracle B2B, and Oracle Service Bus Topology

Figure A-1 shows the Oracle SOA Suite, Oracle B2B, and Oracle Service Bus topology.

Use this topology to implement Oracle Service Bus in your Oracle B2B domain. The Oracle Service Bus software is targeted to its own cluster; this ensures that there is no resource contention between the Oracle B2B and Oracle Service Bus software.
