1About the Oracle Service Bus Installation

The standard installation for Oracle Service Bus described in this guide creates thestandard topology, which represents a sample starting topology for this product.

Using the Standard Installation Topology as a Starting PointThe standard installation topology is a flexible topology that you can useas a starting point in production environments.

Understanding Insight Integration with Oracle Service BusYou can configure an Oracle Real-Time Integration Business Insight(Insight) agent with Oracle Service Bus to collect metrics.

About Secondary TopologiesSecondary topologies include configurations with components thatrequire additional installation or configuration steps on top of thestandard topology.

Using This Document to Extend an Existing DomainThe procedures in this guide describe how to create a new domain. Theassumption is that no other Oracle Fusion Middleware products areinstalled on your system.

1.1 Using the Standard Installation Topology as a Starting PointThe standard installation topology is a flexible topology that you can use as a startingpoint in production environments.

The information in this guide helps you to create a standard installation topology forOracle Service Bus. If appropriate and required, you can later extend the standardinstallation topology to create a secure and highly available production environment(see Next Steps After Configuring the Domain).

The standard installation topology represents a sample topology for this product. It isnot the only topology this product supports. For more information, see About theStandard Installation Topology in Planning an Installation of Oracle Fusion Middleware.

About the Oracle Service Bus Standard Installation TopologyThis topology represents a standard WebLogic Server domain thatcontains an Administration Server and one or more clusters containingone or more Managed Servers.

About Elements in the Standard Installation Topology IllustrationThe standard installation topology typically includes common elements.

1.1.1 About the Oracle Service Bus Standard Installation TopologyThis topology represents a standard WebLogic Server domain that contains anAdministration Server and one or more clusters containing one or more ManagedServers.

1.3 About Secondary TopologiesSecondary topologies include configurations with components that require additionalinstallation or configuration steps on top of the standard topology.

This is a test of using a variable for an xref from a shared topic to a shared topic:

The main sections of this guide describe how to install and configure a standardinstallation topology. The secondary topologies contain several products that are notidentified or included in the standard installation topologies.

For guidelines to install and configure secondary topologies, see Oracle Service Busand Oracle Enterprise Scheduler Topology.

1.4 Using This Document to Extend an Existing DomainThe procedures in this guide describe how to create a new domain. The assumption isthat no other Oracle Fusion Middleware products are installed on your system.

If you have installed and configured other Oracle Fusion Middleware products onyour system (for example, Fusion Middleware Infrastructure, with a domain that is upand running), use the same instructions to extend your existing domain. If you chooseextend an existing domain, read Installing Multiple Products in the Same Domain fordetailed information.

Select the installation andconfiguration directories on yoursystem

Verify that you can create thenecessary directories for installationand configuration, according to therecommended directory structure.

See Understanding Directories forInstallation and Configuration.

Install a certified JDK The installation program for thedistribution requires a certified JDKpresent on your system.

See Understanding JDKRequirements for an Oracle FusionMiddleware Installation.

Install and configure a database formid-tier schemas

To configure your WebLogicdomain, you must have access to acertified database that is properlyconfigured for schemas required byOracle Service Bus.

See Understanding DatabaseRequirements for an Oracle FusionMiddleware Installation.

Verifying Certification, System, and Interoperability RequirementsOracle recommends that you use the certification matrix and systemrequirements documents with each other to verify that yourenvironment meets the requirements for installation.

Selecting an Installation UserThe user who performs installation and configuration on your systemrequires sufficient permissions and privileges.

Understanding Directories for Installation and ConfigurationDuring the installation and domain configuration process, you mustplan on providing the locations for these directories: Oracle Home,Domain Home, and the Application Home.

Understanding JDK Requirements for an Oracle Fusion Middleware InstallationMost Fusion Middleware products are in .jar file format. Thesedistributions do not include a JDK. To run a .jar distribution installer,you must have a certified JDK already installed on your system.

Understanding Database Requirements for an Oracle Fusion MiddlewareInstallation

Many Oracle Fusion Middleware products require database schemasprior to configuration. If you do not already have a database where youcan install these schemas, you must install and configure a certifieddatabase.

2.2.1 Verifying Certification, System, and Interoperability RequirementsOracle recommends that you use the certification matrix and system requirementsdocuments with each other to verify that your environment meets the requirementsfor installation.

1. Verifying your environment meets certification requirements



Make sure that you are installing your product on a supported hardware andsoftware configuration. For more information, see the certification document foryour release on the Oracle Fusion Middleware Supported System Configurations page.

Oracle has tested and verified the performance of your product on all certifiedsystems and environments. Whenever new certifications occur, they are added tothe proper certification document right away. New certifications can be releasedat any time. Therefore, the certification documents are kept outside thedocumentation libraries and are available on Oracle Technology Network.

2. Using the system requirements document to verify certification

Oracle recommends that you use the Oracle Fusion Middleware System Requirementsand Specifications document to verify that the certification requirements are met.For example, if the certification document indicates that your product is certifiedfor installation on 64-Bit Oracle Linux 6.5, use this document to verify that yoursystem meets the required minimum specifications. These include disk space,available memory, specific platform packages and patches, and other operatingsystem-specific items. System requirements can change in the future. Therefore,the system requirement documents are kept outside of the documentationlibraries and are available on Oracle Technology Network.

3. Verifying interoperability among multiple products

See Oracle Fusion Middleware 12c Interoperability and Compatibility inUnderstanding Interoperability and Compatibility to learn how to install and runmultiple Fusion Middleware products from the same release or mixed releaseswith each other.

2.2.2 Selecting an Installation UserThe user who performs installation and configuration on your system requiressufficient permissions and privileges.

Understanding User PermissionsThe user who installs a Fusion Middleware product owns the files andhas certain permissions on the files.

Understanding Non-Default User Permissions on UNIX Operating SystemsChanging the default permissions setting reduces the security of theinstallation and possibly your system. Oracle does not recommendchanging default permission settings.

Verifying the Installation User has Administrator Privileges on WindowsOperating Systems

To update the Windows Registry, you must have Administratorprivileges.

2.2.2.1 Understanding User PermissionsThe user who installs a Fusion Middleware product owns the files and has certainpermissions on the files.

• Read and write permissions on all non-executable files (forexample, .jar, .properties, or .xml). All other users in the same group as thefile owner have read permissions only.



• Read, write, and execute permissions on all executable files (forexample, .exe, .sh, or .cmd). All other users in the same group as the file ownerhave read and execute permissions only.

This means that someone other than the person who installs the software can use theinstalled binaries in the Oracle home to configure a domain or set of FusionMiddleware products.

During configuration, the files generated by the configuration process are owned bythe user who ran the Configuration Wizard, with the same permissions as describedabove for the installation user. However, security-sensitive files are not created withgroup permissions. Only the user that created the domain has read and writepermissions and can administer the domain.

Consider the following examples:

• Example 1: A Single User Installs the Software and Configures the Domain

This example shows the permissions if the same user installs the software andconfigures the domain.

To ensure the proper permissions and privileges for all files, Oracle recommendsthat the same owner perform both tasks: install the Oracle Fusion Middlewareproduct and configure the WebLogic Server domain using the ConfigurationWizard.

The Oracle home is created by User1 during product

installation. User1 has read/write/execute permissions

on all executable files, and read/write permissions on all

other files. All other users in User1’s group have

read/execute permissions on all executable files, and

read permissions on all other files.

and read/write permissions on all other files. All other

users in User1’s group have read/execute permissions

on all executable files, and read permissions on all

other files.

If the user who creates the domain is different than the user who installed thesoftware, then both users must have the same privileges, as shown in the nextexample.

• Example 2: The Oracle Home and Domain are Created by Different Users

This example shows the permissions where one user creates the Oracle home andanother user configures the domain.



The Oracle home is created by User1 during product

all executable files, and read/write permissions on all

other files. All other users in User1’s group have

read/execute permissions on all executable files, and read

permissions on all other files.

users in User2’s group (including User1) have

read/execute permissions on all executable files, and read

permissions on all other files.

Note: Certain domain files do not have group permissions. For example,cwallet.sso.

Consider the following items before running the installer:

• On UNIX operating systems, Oracle recommends that you set umask to 027 onyour system before you install the software. This ensures that file permissions areset properly during installation. Use the following command:

umask 027

You must enter this command in the same terminal window from which you planto run the product installer.

• On UNIX operating systems, do not run the installation program as the root user.If you run the installer as a root user, the startup validation may fail and youcannot continue the installation.

• When you manage a product installation (for example, applying patches or startingmanaged Servers), use the same user ID that you used to install the product.

• On Windows operating systems, you must have Administrative privileges to installthe product. See Verifying the Installation User has Administrator Privileges onWindows Operating Systems for more information.

2.2.2.2 Understanding Non-Default User Permissions on UNIX Operating SystemsChanging the default permissions setting reduces the security of the installation andpossibly your system. Oracle does not recommend changing default permissionsettings.

If other users require access to particular files or executable, consider using the UNIXsudo command (or other similar command) in lieu of changing file permissions.

Refer to your UNIX operating system Administrator's Guide or contact your operatingsystem vendor if you need further assistance.



2.2.2.3 Verifying the Installation User has Administrator Privileges on WindowsOperating SystemsTo update the Windows Registry, you must have Administrator privileges.

By default, members with the Administrator privilege sign in to the system withregular privileges, but can request elevated permissions to perform administrativetasks.

To perform a task with elevated privileges:

1. Find the Command Prompt item, either from the Start menu or the Windows iconin the lower-left hand corner.

2. Right-click Command Prompt and select Run as administrator.

This opens a new command prompt window, and all actions performed in thiswindow will be done with administrator privileges.

Note: If you have User Access Control enabled on your system, you may seean additional window asking you to confirm this action. Confirm andcontinue with this procedure.

3. Perform the desired task.

For example, to start the product installer:

For a jar file, enter:

java —jar distribution_name.jar

For an executable (.exe, .bin, or .sh file), enter:

distribution_name.exe

2.2.3 Understanding Directories for Installation and ConfigurationDuring the installation and domain configuration process, you must plan onproviding the locations for these directories: Oracle Home, Domain Home, and theApplication Home.

The following sections provide information to help you decide where you want tocreate these directories:

Understanding the Recommended Directory StructureOracle recommends specific locations for the Oracle Home, DomainHome, and Application Home.

About the Oracle Home DirectoryWhen you install any Oracle Fusion Middleware product, you must usean Oracle home directory.

About the Domain Home DirectoryThe Domain home is the directory where domains that you configure arecreated.

About the Application Home DirectoryThe Application home is the directory where applications for domainsyou configure are created.



Installing Multiple Products in the Same DomainThere are two methods for installing and configuring multiple productsin one domain.

Preparing for Shared StorageOracle Fusion Middleware enables you to configure multiple OracleWebLogic Server domains from a single Oracle home. This allows you toinstall the Oracle home in a single location on a shared volume andreuse the Oracle home for multiple host installations.

2.2.3.1 Understanding the Recommended Directory StructureOracle recommends specific locations for the Oracle Home, Domain Home, andApplication Home.

Oracle recommends a directory structure similar to the one shown in Figure 2-1.

Figure 2-1 Recommended Oracle Fusion Middleware Directory Structure

This area contains binary

files laid down by the

product installer. Runtime

processes will not write to

this area.

product

Oracle Home

(Oracle_Home)

Application Home

(applications)

oracle

home

Domain Home

(Domains)

configThis area contains

configuration and

application data created

by user.

A base location (Oracle base) should be established on your system (for example, /home/oracle) and from there, two separate branches should be created. Theproduct directory should contain the product binary files and all of the Oracle homedirectories. The config directory should contain your domain and application data.

Oracle recommends that you do not keep your configuration data anywhereunderneath the Oracle home; if you upgrade your product to another major release,you will be required to create a new Oracle home for binaries. You must also makesure that your configuration data exist in a location to which the binaries in the Oraclehome have access.

The /home/oracle/product (for the Oracle home) and /home/oracle/config(for the application and configuration data) directories are used in examplesthroughout the documentation; be sure to replace these directories with the actualdirectories on your system.

2.2.3.2 About the Oracle Home DirectoryWhen you install any Oracle Fusion Middleware product, you must use an Oraclehome directory.



This directory is a repository for common files that are used by multiple FusionMiddleware products installed on the same machine. These files are essential toensuring that Fusion Middleware operates correctly on your system. They facilitatechecking of cross-product dependencies during installation. For this reason, you canconsider the Oracle home directory a central support directory for all Oracle FusionMiddleware products installed on your system.

Fusion Middleware documentation refers to the Oracle home directory asORACLE_HOME.

Oracle Home Considerations

Keep the following in mind when creating the Oracle home directory and installingFusion Middleware products:

• Do not include spaces in the name of your Oracle home directory; the installergives you an error message if your Oracle home directory path contains spaces.

• You can install only one instance of each Oracle Fusion Middleware product in asingle Oracle home directory. If you need to maintain separate versions of aproduct on the same machine, each version must be in its own Oracle homedirectory.

Although you can have several different products in a single Oracle home, onlyone version of each product can be in the Oracle home.

Multiple Home Directories

Although in most situations, a single Oracle home directory is sufficient, it is possibleto create more than one Oracle home directory. For example, you need to maintainmultiple Oracle home directories in the following situations:

• You prefer to maintain separate development and production environments, with aseparate product stack for each. With two directories, you can update yourdevelopment environment without modifying the production environment untilyou are ready to do so.

• You want to maintain two different versions of a Fusion Middleware product at thesame time. For example, you may want to install a new version of a product whilekeeping your existing version intact. In this case, you must install each productversion in its own Oracle home directory.

• You need to install multiple products that are not compatible with each other. See Oracle Fusion Middleware 12c (12.2.1) Interoperability and Compatibility inUnderstanding Interoperability and Compatibility for more information.

Note: If you create more than one Oracle home directory, you must providenon-overlapping port ranges during the configuration phase for each product.

2.2.3.3 About the Domain Home DirectoryThe Domain home is the directory where domains that you configure are created.

The default Domain home location is ORACLE_HOME/user_projects/domains/domain_name. However, Oracle strongly recommends that you do not use thisdefault location. Put your Domain home outside of the Oracle home directory, forexample, in /home/oracle/config/domains. The config directory shouldcontain domain and application data. Oracle recommends a separate domain directory



so that new installs, patches, and other operations update the ORACLE_HOME only, notthe domain configuration.

See Understanding the Recommended Directory Structure for more about therecommended directory structure and locating your Domain home.

Fusion Middleware documentation refers to the Domain home directory asDOMAIN_HOME and includes all folders up to and including the domain name. Forexample, if you name your domain exampledomain and locate your domain data inthe /home/oracle/config/domains directory, the documentation would useDOMAIN_HOME to refer to /home/oracle/config/domains/exampledomain.

2.2.3.4 About the Application Home DirectoryThe Application home is the directory where applications for domains you configureare created.

The default Application home location is ORACLE_HOME/user_projects/applications/domain_name. However, Oracle strongly recommends locatingyour Application home outside of the Oracle home directory; if you upgrade yourproduct to another major release, you must create a new Oracle home for binaries.

See Understanding the Recommended Directory Structure for more about therecommended directory structure and locating your Application home.

Fusion Middleware documentation refers to the Application home directory asAPPLICATION_HOME and includes all folders up to and including the domain name.For example, if you name your domain exampledomain and you locate yourapplication data in the /home/oracle/config/applications directory, thedocumentation uses APPLICATION_HOME to refer to /home/oracle/config/applications/exampledomain.

2.2.3.5 Installing Multiple Products in the Same DomainThere are two methods for installing and configuring multiple products in onedomain.

• Method 1.

Install and configure Product A, including creating the schemas and starting allservers in the domain to verify a successful domain configuration.

This is the method used in all installation guides in the Fusion Middleware library.You can repeat this process for as many products as necessary. It allows you tovalidate one product at a time and add more products incrementally.

To install Product B, you stop the Administration Server to prevent any updates tothe domain while you are adding the new product. Then, follow instructions in theinstallation guide for Product B, including creating the necessary schemas. Finally,extend the Product A domain to include Product B before starting all of the serversagain.

• Method 2.

Install all of the necessary products, then create the schemas for all of the products.After creating the schemas, configure the domain using all of the necessary producttemplates, then start all the servers.

This method of creating a multi-product domain may be slightly faster; however,the installation guides in the Fusion Middleware library do not provide specificinstructions for this method of domain creation. You will need to refer to thesupporting documentation as appropriate.



2.2.3.6 Preparing for Shared StorageOracle Fusion Middleware enables you to configure multiple Oracle WebLogic Serverdomains from a single Oracle home. This allows you to install the Oracle home in asingle location on a shared volume and reuse the Oracle home for multiple hostinstallations.

If you plan to use shared storage in your environment, see Using Shared Storage inHigh Availability Guide for more information.

For configuration requirements specific to Managed File Transfer, see HighAvailability Properties in Using Oracle Managed File Transfer

2.2.4 Understanding JDK Requirements for an Oracle Fusion Middleware InstallationMost Fusion Middleware products are in .jar file format. These distributions do notinclude a JDK. To run a .jar distribution installer, you must have a certified JDKalready installed on your system.

Make sure that the JDK is installed outside of the Oracle home. If you install the JDKunder the Oracle home, you will encounter problems when you try to perform tasks inthe future. Oracle Universal Installer validates that the Oracle home directory isempty; the install will not progress until you specify an empty directory. Oraclerecommends that you locate your JDK installation in the /home/oracle/products/jdk directory.

Some products (such as Oracle HTTP Server and Oracle JDeveloper) are availableas platform-specific distributions. Platform-specific distributions have a .bin (forUNIX operating systems) or .exe (for Windows operating systems) installer; in thesecases, a platform-specific JDK is in the distribution and you do not need to install aJDK separately. However, you may need to upgrade this JDK to a more recent version,depending on the JDK versions that are certified.

Always verify the required JDK version by reviewing the certification information onthe Oracle Fusion Middleware Supported System Configurations page.

To download the required JDK, navigate to the following URL and download the JavaSE JDK:

http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/downloads/index.html

2.2.5 Understanding Database Requirements for an Oracle Fusion MiddlewareInstallation

Many Oracle Fusion Middleware products require database schemas prior toconfiguration. If you do not already have a database where you can install theseschemas, you must install and configure a certified database.

To find a certified database for your operating system, see the certification documentfor your release on the Oracle Fusion Middleware Supported System Configurations page.

To make sure your database is properly configured for schema creation, see"Repository Creation Utility Requirements" in the Oracle Fusion Middleware SystemRequirements and Specifications document.

After your database is properly configured, you use the Repository Creation Utility(RCU) to create product schemas in your database. This tool is available in the Oraclehome for your Oracle Fusion Middleware product. For more information about the



http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/downloads/index.html

RCU, see Understanding Repository Creation Utility in Creating Schemas with theRepository Creation Utility.

About the Custom Variables Required for the SOA Suite SchemasWhen you install the Oracle SOA Suite schemas, you are prompted to settwo custom variables, which affect the way in which these schemas arecreated in the database.

2.2.5.1 About the Custom Variables Required for the SOA Suite SchemasWhen you install the Oracle SOA Suite schemas, you are prompted to set two customvariables, which affect the way in which these schemas are created in the database.

These variables are explained further in the following sections:

About the Database Profile Custom VariableThe Database Profile custom variable on the Repository Creation Utility(RCU) Custom Variables screen allows you to identify the predicted sizeor "profile" of the database on which you are installing the SOAInfrastructure schema.

About the Healthcare Integration Custom VariableThe Healthcare Integration custom variable helps to activate theHealthcare Integration User Interface for Oracle SOA Suite. The interfaceis not supported for Oracle Business Process Management.

2.2.5.1.1 About the Database Profile Custom Variable

The Database Profile custom variable on the Repository Creation Utility (RCU)Custom Variables screen allows you to identify the predicted size or "profile" of thedatabase on which you are installing the SOA Infrastructure schema.

To estimate the size of the database required for your Oracle SOA Suite configuration,consider the information in Developing a Database Growth Management Strategy inAdministering Oracle SOA Suite and Oracle Business Process Management Suite.

If you enter SMALL or MEDIUM as the database profile, the RCU performs nospecial actions when the schema is created. The SMALL and MEDIUM optionsshould be entered for informational purposes only.

If you enter LARGE as the database profile, the RCU creates the SOA Infrastructureschema using an Oracle database feature called Interval Partitioning. Intervalpartitioning improves the efficiency of the database when large numbers of compositeapplications must be processed. When you select the LARGE database profile, theRCU creates the interval partitioned tables in a manner supported by the Oracle SOASuite purging scripts and guidelines.

For more information about database partitioning, see the following sections of theOracle Database VLDB and Partitioning Guide:

• Partitioning Concepts

• Interval Partitioning



2.2.5.1.2 About the Healthcare Integration Custom Variable

The Healthcare Integration custom variable helps to activate the HealthcareIntegration User Interface for Oracle SOA Suite. The interface is not supported forOracle Business Process Management.

If you are not planning to use the Healthcare Integration User Interface for Oracle SOASuite, then set the value of the Healthcare Integration custom variable to NO. If youare planning to use the Healthcare Integration User Interface for Oracle SOA Suite, setit to YES. Otherwise, the Healthcare Integration User Interface will not functionproperly after it is installed and configured.

When set to YES, the RCU creates additional materialized views in the database,which are required by the Healthcare Integration User Interface. When set to NO, youcan perform these additional schema configuration tasks later by running thefollowing SQL script on the database. This script is installed in the Oracle FusionMiddleware Oracle home when you select the Healthcare with B2B installation type:

ORACLE_HOME/common/sql/soainfra/sql/oracle/b2b_mv.sql

For more information, see Using the Oracle SOA Suite for Healthcare Integration UserInterface in Healthcare Integration User's Guide for Oracle SOA Suite.

2.3 About Product DistributionsYou create the initial Oracle Service Bus domain using the Oracle Fusion MiddlewareInfrastructure distribution, which contains both Oracle WebLogic Server software andOracle Java Required Files (JRF) software.

This directory structure helps avoid issues when you need toupgrade or reinstall software.



Note:

If you want to use an Oracle Real-Time Integration Business Insight agent(Insight Service Bus agent) to collect business metrics:

• Insight must be co-located in the same domain as BAM. See UnderstandingInsight Integration with Oracle Service Bus.

• If you configure BAM and Insight in a separate domain from the OracleService Bus domain, then the Oracle Service Bus domain cannot alsoinclude BAM. If Oracle Service Bus and BAM are co-located in the samedomain, then the BAM data source entries must reference the local SOAschema. Insight agents (in the SOA and Oracle Service Bus domains) accessthe remote BAM/Insight domain’s SOA schema through the BAM datasource entries. However, if the BAM data source must reference the localSOA schema for BAM to work in the Oracle Service Bus domain, then theInsight agents cannot access the remote BAM/Insight domain’s SOAschema.

• If you configure an Oracle Service Bus domain to include an Insight ServiceBus agent that communicates with a remote BAM/Insight domain, thenyou will need to manually edit the BAM data source entries to referencethe SOA schema of the BAM/Insight domain. For more information, see Specifying JDBC Component Schema Information.

• If BAM and Insight are co-located in the same domain as Oracle ServiceBus, then the BAM data source entries reference the correct SOA schema(in the Oracle Service Bus domain), and no manual updates are necessary.

To specify the Domain type and Domain home directory:

1. On the Configuration Type screen, select Create a new domain.

Note: You can also extend your existing Oracle Service Bus domain to includean Insight agent by selecting Update an existing domain. For informationabout extending a domain, see Enterprise Deployment Guide for Oracle SOASuite. When an existing domain is extended to include the Insight Service BusAgent template, you will need to repack and unpack the domain in all themachines that host the servers of that cluster.

2. In the Domain Location field, specify your Domain home directory.

For more about other options on this screen, see Configuration Type in CreatingWebLogic Domains Using the Configuration Wizard.

4.2.2.2 Selecting the Configuration Templates for Oracle Service BusUse the Templates screen to select the templates you require.

On the Templates screen, make sure Create Domain Using Product Templates isselected, then select the following templates:

• Oracle Service Bus - 12.2.1.0 [osb]

Selecting this template automatically selects the following as dependencies:



– WebLogic Advanced Web Services for JAX-RPC Extension

– ODSI XQuery 2004 Components

– Oracle Enterprise Manager

– Oracle WSM Policy Manager

• Insight Service Bus Agent - 12.2.1.0 [osb] if you want to include an Oracle Real-Time Integration Business Insight agent with Oracle Service Bus.

For more information, see Understanding Insight Integration with Oracle ServiceBus.

Tip:

For more information about this screen, see Templates in Creating WebLogicDomains Using the Configuration Wizard.

4.2.2.3 Selecting the Application Home LocationUse the Application Location screen to select the location to store applicationsassociated with your domain, also known as the Application home directory.

Oracle recommends that you locate your Application home in accordance with thedirectory structure in What Are the Key Oracle Fusion Middleware Directories? inUnderstanding Oracle Fusion Middleware, where the Application home is located outsidethe Oracle home directory. This directory structure helps avoid issues when you needto upgrade or re-install your software.

Tip:

For more about the Application home directory, see About the ApplicationHome Directory.

For more information about this screen, see Application Location in CreatingWebLogic Domains Using the Configuration Wizard.

4.2.2.4 Configuring the Administrator AccountUse the Administrator Account screen to specify the user name and password for thedefault WebLogic Administrator account for the domain.

4.2.2.5 Specifying the Domain Mode and JDKUse the Domain Mode and JDK screen to specify the domain mode and JavaDevelopment Kit (JDK).

On the Domain Mode and JDK screen:

• Select Production in the Domain Mode field.

• Select the Oracle HotSpot JDK in the JDK field.



Tip:

For more information about this screen, see Domain Mode and JDK in CreatingWebLogic Domains Using the Configuration Wizard.

4.2.2.6 Specifying the Database Configuration TypeUse the Database Configuration type screen to specify details about the database anddatabase schema.

On the Database Configuration type screen, select RCU Data. This option instructs theConfiguration Wizard to connect to the database and Service Table (STB) schema toautomatically retrieve schema information for schemas needed to configure thedomain.

Note:

If you select Manual Configuration on this screen, you must manually fill inparameters for your schema on the next screen.

After selecting RCU Data, fill in the following fields:

Enter the username and password for connecting to the database'sService Table schema. This is the schema username and passwordentered for the Service Table component on the Schema Passwordsscreen in the RCU (see Specifying Schema Passwords).

The default username is prefix_STB, where prefix is the customprefix that you defined in the RCU.

Click Get RCU Configuration when you finish specifying the database connectioninformation. The following output in the Connection Result Log indicates that theoperation succeeded:

Connecting to the database server...OKRetrieving schema data from database server...OKBinding local schema components with retrieved data...OK

Successfully Done.



Tip:

For more information about the schema installed when the RCU is run, see Understanding the Service Table Schema in Creating Schemas with theRepository Creation Utility.

For more information about this screen, see Database Configuration Type inCreating WebLogic Domains Using the Configuration Wizard.

4.2.2.7 Specifying JDBC Component Schema InformationUse the JDBC Component Schema screen to verify or specify details about thedatabase schemas.

Verify that the values on the JDBC Component Schema screen are correct for allschemas. Review the following to understand when the schema table may not bepopulated correctly for BAM:

• If you configure an Oracle Service Bus domain to include an Insight Service Busagent that communicates with a remote BAM/Insight domain, then you will needto manually edit the BAM data source entries to reference the SOA schema of theBAM/Insight domain. The data sources that you will need to edit are:

– BamDataSource (SOAINFRA schema)

– BamJobSchedDataSource (WLS schema)

– BamLeasingDataSource (WLS_RUNTIME schema)

– BamNonJTADataSource (SOAINFRA schema)

– mds-bam (MDS schema)

• If BAM and Insight are collocated in the same domain as Oracle Service Bus, thenthe BAM data source entries reference the correct SOA schema (in the OracleService Bus domain), and no manual updates are necessary.

Tip:

For high availability environments, see the following sections in HighAvailability Guide for additional information on configuring data sources forOracle RAC databases:

• Configuring GridLink Data Sources with Oracle RAC

• Configuring Multi Data Sources

For more information about this screen, see JDBC Component Schema inCreating WebLogic Domains Using the Configuration Wizard.

4.2.2.8 Testing the JDBC ConnectionsUse the JDBC Component Schema Test screen to test the data source connections.

A green check mark in the Status column indicates a successful test. If you encounterany issues, see the error message in the Connection Result Log section of the screen,fix the problem, then try to test the connection again.

By default, the schema password for each schema component is the password youspecified while creating your schemas. If you want different passwords for differentschema components, manually edit them in the previous screen (JDBC Component



Schema) by entering the password you want in the Schema Password column, againsteach row. After specifying the passwords, select the check box corresponding to theschemas that you changed the password in and test the connection again.

Tip:

For more information about this screen, see JDBC Component Schema Test inCreating WebLogic Domains Using the Configuration Wizard .

4.2.2.9 Selecting Advanced ConfigurationUse the Advanced Configuration screen to complete the domain configuration.

On the Advanced Configuration screen, select:

• Administration Server

Required to properly configure the listen address of the Administration Server.

• Node Manager

Required to configure Node Manager.

• Topology

Required to configure the Oracle Service Bus Managed Server.

Optionally, select other available options as required for your desired installationenvironment. The steps in this guide describe a standard installation topology, butyou may choose to follow a different path. If your installation requirements extend toadditional options outside the scope of this guide, you may be presented withadditional screens to configure those options. For information about all ConfigurationWizard screens, see Configuration Wizard Screens in Creating WebLogic Domains Usingthe Configuration Wizard.

4.2.2.10 Configuring the Administration Server Listen AddressUse the Administration Server screen to select the IP address of the host.

Select the drop-down list next to Listen Address and select the IP address of the hostwhere the Administration Server will reside, or use the system name or DNS namethat maps to a single IP address. Do not use All Local Addresses.

Do not specify any server groups for the Administration Server.

4.2.2.11 Configuring Node ManagerUse the Node Manager screen to select the type of Node Manager you want toconfigure, along with the Node Manager credentials.

Select Per Domain Default Location as the Node Manager type, then specify NodeManager credentials.

Tip:

For more information about this screen, see Node Manager in CreatingWebLogic Domains Using the Configuration Wizard.

For more about Node Manager types, see Node Manager Overview inAdministering Node Manager for Oracle WebLogic Server.



4.2.2.12 Configuring Managed Servers for Oracle Service BusUse the Managed Servers screen to configure Managed Servers.

On the Managed Servers screen, a new Managed Server named osb_server1 isautomatically created by default.

To configure Managed Servers for Oracle Service Bus:

1. In the Listen Address drop-down list, select the IP address of the host on which theManaged Server will reside or use the system name or DNS name that maps to asingle IP address. Do not use All Local Addresses.

2. In the Server Groups drop-down list, make sure that OSB-MGD-SVRS-COMBINED is selected. This server group ensures that Oracle Service Bus andOracle Web Services Manager (OWSM) services are targeted to the same ManagedServer.

• If you want to have OWSM Policy Manager in a different server from the OracleService Bus server, select OSB-MGD-SVRS-ONLY. This targets only OracleService Bus but not OWSM Policy Manager to the server.

• If you plan to configure a cluster that includes both SOA and Oracle Service BusManaged Servers on the same machine, you must assign both the OSB-MGD-SVRS-COMBINED and SOA-MGD-SVRS server groups to each ManagedServer. Otherwise, domain creation will fail.

3. Configuring a second Managed Server is one of the steps needed to configure thestandard topology for high availability. If you are not creating a highly availableenvironment, then this step is optional.

Click Add and select OSB-MGD-SVRS-COMBINED to create a second ManagedServer named osb_server2.

Note:

For more information about the high availability standard topology, see Understanding the Fusion Middleware Standard HA Topology in HighAvailability Guide.

For more information about the next steps to prepare for high availability afteryour domain is configured, see Preparing Your Environment for HighAvailability.

These server names are referenced throughout this document. If you choose differentnames be sure to replace them as needed.

Tip:

For more information about this screen, see Managed Servers in CreatingWebLogic Domains Using the Configuration Wizard.

4.2.2.13 Configuring the Administration Server as the Oracle Service Bus RuntimeServerBeginning with 12c (12.1.3), you can configure the administrator server as the OracleService Bus runtime server if you require a standalone Oracle Service Bus domain.



To use the administration server as the Oracle Service Bus runtime server, you mustcreate a compact domain. However, a compact domain is supported only in thedeveloper environment, not the production environment. Therefore, Oracle does notsupport Oracle Service Bus running in the administration server in production. Tocreate a compact domain in a testing and development environment, see Configuringa Compact Domain in Installing SOA Suite and Business Process Management Suite QuickStart for Developers.

Note: You can follow the steps in Installing SOA Suite and Business ProcessManagement Suite Quick Start for Developers to create a compact domain even ifyou did not use the Quick Start installation to install Oracle Service Bus.

4.2.2.14 Configuring a Cluster for Oracle Service BusUse the Clusters screen to create a new cluster.

On the Clusters screen:

1. Click Add.

2. Specify osb_cluster1 in the Cluster Name field.

3. Leave the Cluster Address field blank.

By default, server instances in a cluster communicate with one another using unicast.If you want to change your cluster communications to use multicast, see Considerations for Choosing Unicast or Multicast in Administering Clusters for OracleWebLogic Server.

You can also create clusters using Fusion Middleware Control. In this case, you canconfigure cluster communication (unicast or multicast) when you create the newcluster. For more information, see "Create and configure clusters" in Oracle WebLogicServer Administration Console Online Help.

Tip:

For more information about this screen, see Clusters in Creating WebLogicDomains Using the Configuration Wizard.

4.2.2.15 Assigning Oracle Service Bus Managed Servers to the ClusterUse the Assign Servers to Clusters screen to assign Managed Servers to the newcluster.

On the Assign Servers to Clusters screen:

1. In the Clusters pane, select the cluster to which you want to assign the ManagedServers; in this case, osb_cluster1.

2. In the Servers pane, assign osb_server1 to osb_cluster1 by doing one of thefollowing:

• Click once on osb_server1 to select it, then click the right arrow to move itbeneath the selected cluster (osb_cluster1) in the Clusters pane.

• Double-click on osb_server1 to move it beneath the selected cluster(osb_cluster1) in the Clusters pane.



3. Repeat to assign osb_server2 to osb_cluster1.

The following image shows a generic example of the Clusters pane after ManagedServers are assigned to clusters.

Figure 4-1 Managed Servers Assigned to Clusters

Tip:

For more information about this screen, see Assign Servers to Clusters inCreating WebLogic Domains Using the Configuration Wizard.

4.2.2.16 Configuring Coherence ClustersUse the Coherence Clusters screen to configure the Coherence cluster.

Leave the default port number as the Coherence cluster listen port. Afterconfiguration, the Coherence cluster is automatically added to the domain.

Note:

Setting the unicast listen port to 0 creates an offset for the Managed Serverport numbers. The offset is 5000, meaning the maximum allowed value thatyou can assign to a Managed Server port number is 60535, instead of 65535.

See Table 5-2 for more information and next steps for configuring Coherence.

Note:

For Coherence licensing information, see Oracle Coherence Products inLicensing Information.

4.2.2.17 Creating a New Oracle Service Bus MachineUse the Machines screen to create new machines in the domain. A machine is requiredso that Node Manager can start and stop servers.



Tip:

If you plan to create a high availability environment and know the list ofmachines your target topology requires, you can follow the instructions in thissection to create all the machines at this time. For more information, see Optional Scale Out Procedure in High Availability Guide.

To create a new Oracle Service Bus machine so that Node Manager can start and stopservers:

1. Select the Machine tab (for Windows) or the UNIX Machine tab (for UNIX), thenclick Add to create a new machine.

2. In the Name field, specify a machine name, such as osb_machine1.

3. In the Node Manager Listen Address field, select the IP address of the machine inwhich the Managed Servers are being configured.

You must select a specific interface and not localhost. This allows Coherencecluster addresses to be dynamically calculated.

4. Verify the port in the Node Manager Listen Port field.

5. Repeat these steps to add more machines, if required.

Note:

If you are extending an existing domain, you can assign servers to any existingmachine. It is not necessary to create a new machine unless your situationrequires it.

Tip:

For more information about this screen, see Machines in Creating WebLogicDomains Using the Configuration Wizard.

4.2.2.18 Assigning Servers to Oracle Service Bus MachinesUse the Assign Servers to Machines screen to assign the Administration Server andManaged Servers to the new machine you just created.

On the Assign Servers to Machines screen:

1. In the Machines pane, select the machine to which you want to assign the servers,such as osb_machine1.

2. In the Servers pane, assign AdminServer to the selected machine by doing one ofthe following:

• Click once on AdminServer to select it, then click the right arrow to move itbeneath the selected machine in the Machines pane.

• Double-click on AdminServer to move it beneath the selected machine in theMachines pane.

3. Repeat these steps to assign all Managed Servers to their respective machines.



The following figure shows a generic example of the Machines pane after ManagedServers for a product are assigned to machines.

For example, if your Oracle home directory is /home/Oracle/product/ORACLE_HOME on a UNIX operating system, enter the following commands:

cd /home/Oracle/product rm -rf ORACLE_HOME

On a Windows operating system, if your Oracle home directory is C:\Oracle\Product\ORACLE_HOME, use a file manager window and navigate to the C:\Oracle\Product directory, then right-click on the ORACLE_HOME folder and selectDelete.

Removing the Oracle Home Directory Manually


6.6 Removing the Program Shortcuts on Windows Operating SystemsOn Windows operating systems, you must also manually remove the programshortcuts; the deinstaller does not remove them for you.

To remove the program shortcuts on Windows:

1. Go to the C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\Oracle\ORACLE_HOME\Product directory.

2. If you only have one product installed in your Oracle home, delete theORACLE_HOME directory. If you have multiple products installed in your Oraclehome, delete all products before deleting the ORACLE_HOME directory.

6.7 Removing the Domain and Application DataAfter deinstalling the software, you must remove the domain and application data.

To remove the domain and application data:

1. Manually remove your Domain home directory. For example:

On a UNIX operating system, if your Domain home directory is /home/Oracle/config/domains/osb_domain, enter the following command:

cd /home/Oracle/config/domains rm -rf osb_domain

On a Windows operating system, if your Domain home directory is C:\Oracle\Config\domains\osb_domain, use a file manager window and navigate to theC:\Oracle\Config\domains directory, then right-click on the osb_domainfolder and select Delete.

2. Manually remove your Application home directory. For example:

On a UNIX operating system, if your Application home directory is /home/Oracle/config/applications/osb_domain, enter the following commands:

cd /home/Oracle/config/applications rm -rf osb_domain

On a Windows operating system, if your Application home directory is C:\Oracle\Config\applications\osb_domain, use a file manager windowand navigate to the C:\Oracle\Config\applications directory, then right-click on the osb_domain folder and select Delete.

3. Back up the domain_registry.xml file in your Oracle home, then edit the fileand remove the line associated with the domain you are removing. For example, toremove the osb_domain, find the following line and remove it:

<domain location="/home/Oracle/config/domains/osb_domain"/>

Save and exit the file when you are finished.

6.8 Reinstalling the SoftwareYou can reinstall your software into the same Oracle home as a previous installationonly if you deinstalled the software by following the instructions in this section,including manually removing the Oracle home directory.

Removing the Program Shortcuts on Windows Operating Systems


When you reinstall, you can then specify the same Oracle home as your previousinstallation.

Consider the following cases where the Oracle home is not empty:

• Installing in an existing Oracle home that contains the same feature sets.

The installer warns you that the Oracle home you specified during installationalready contains the same software you are trying to install.

Your options are:

– Select a different Oracle home directory.

– Select a different installation type. In this case, only the feature sets that do notexist in the Oracle home directory are installed.

– Select a different Oracle home directory.

• Installing in an existing, non-empty Oracle home.

For example, suppose that you chose to create your Domain home or Applicationhome somewhere inside your existing Oracle home. This data is not removedduring the deinstallation process, so if you try to reinstall into the same Oraclehome, the installer does not allow it. Your options are:

1. Deinstall your software from the Oracle home (as this section describes) andthen remove the Oracle home directory. After you deinstall the software andremove the Oracle home directory, you can reinstall and reuse the same Oraclehome location. Any domain or application data that was in the Oracle homemust be re-created.

2. Select a different Oracle home directory.
