Executive summary
For IT teams, infrastructure provisioning can be both time-consuming and resource-draining. Each time a business unit,
application owner, or development team requests resources, a lengthy process begins. IT experts have to capture
system requirements, design the solution from scratch, and then identify the resources that are currently available and
those that need to be procured. HP Matrix Operating Environment (Matrix OE) infrastructure orchestration enables
your IT organization to provision infrastructure consistently and automatically from pools of shared resources using a
self-service portal. You can rapidly provision resources ranging from a single virtual machine to complex multi-tier
environments with physical and virtual servers and storage systems.
Oracle Real Application Clusters or better known as Oracle RAC is Oracle’s popular cluster database technology
utilizing a shared cache architecture. Oracle Fusion Middleware (OFM) is Oracle’s complete family of application
infrastructure products that uses WebLogic, Oracle’s Java application server. The OFM product suite ranges from
Service Oriented Architecture (SOA) to enterprise portals, and is integrated with Oracle Applications and
technologies to speed implementation and lower the cost of management and change.
HP Cloud Maps were developed to accelerate the creation of a service catalog by providing a guide to automate
infrastructure and application provisioning and deployment. The HP Cloud Map for CloudSystem for Oracle RAC and
Fusion Middleware on VMware virtual machines includes a template and associated workflows, which provisions
RAC database servers and OFM SOA Suite clusters quickly and automatically in a repeatable fashion. This document
describes the process to import the HP Cloud Map supplied template into target systems and customize them for use.
To review this reference architecture, and for further information on the installation and configuration, check the white
paper Inside the HP Cloud Map for CloudSystem for Oracle RAC and Fusion Middleware on VMware.
This Cloud Map differs from the one with the same name without CloudSystem in the title in that this one uses HP
Server Automation (SA) interfacing with VMware and the other uses VMware directly. Server Automation manages
the complex data center environment and is used in CloudSystem for Matrix and CloudSystem for Enterprise for
larger, more complex environments. The Cloud Map that uses VMware directly is directed mainly at smaller
environments.
Target audience: This document is for IT managers, database and system administrators and experienced users who
wish to learn more about the capabilities of HP Matrix OE and how it can be used to provision Oracle RAC and
OFM SOA Suite clusters. Knowledge of the HP CloudSystem Matrix and the underlying components will be helpful
when reading this white paper. Please see the For more information section at the end of this paper for links to
additional information on these topic areas.
This white paper describes validations performed in November 2011.
Note
HP Matrix Operating Environment was previously referred to as HP Insight
Dynamics.
HP Matrix OE infrastructure orchestration was previously referred to as HP
Insight Orchestration (IO).
The HP Matrix Operating Environment uses a subset of Operations Orchestration
capability. HP Cloud Maps leverage workflows that are authored using this
subset of Operations Orchestration.

Solution environment
The instructions in this document assume you have already set up your CloudSystem Matrix, HP Virtual Connect (VC)
infrastructure, and Central Management Server (CMS). You will need to specify the network connections required for
Oracle RAC and OFM SOA Suite in the template definition.
This template was created using HP Insight Dynamics 6.3 Update 1. The server where Insight Dynamics is installed is
known as CMS. To download HP BladeSystem firmware, go to http://www.hp.com/go/matrixcompatibility.
SAN Storage is required for this Cloud Map. The testing was done on an HP 8400 Enterprise Virtual Array (EVA)
and then on an HP 3PAR T800 Storage System.
The firmware and software versions used during template creation are listed in Table 1.
Table 1. Firmware and software levels
Overview
The HP Cloud Map for CloudSystem for Oracle RAC and Fusion Middleware on VMware provides a template,
workflows and scripts used to deploy a RAC cluster and an OFM cluster on four virtual machines using HP Server
Automation. HP Server Automation software provides lifecycle management for enterprise servers and automates the
deployment of applications. It provides a proven scalable solution for establishing a baseline, provisioning, patching
configuration management, script execution, and compliance management—all across physical and virtual servers.
HP Server Automation helps customers increase efficiency and reduce risk by automating manual operations for
complex environments. The Cloud Map with the same name without the term CloudSystem is meant for smaller,
simpler environments and can use VMware directly. Using the Cloud Map you can provision RAC and OFM SOA
servers quickly and automatically in a repeatable fashion. This will automate the OS installation on the servers, tune
kernel parameters for RAC and OFM, modify system configuration files and apply any required patches.
System and other requirements for the template and a discussion of the provisioning, VMware vCenter and ESXi
installation, SA installation, Red Hat Linux operating system installation, the Oracle RAC installation process, and the
OFM SOA Suite installation process are provided in the white paper Inside the HP Cloud Map for CloudSystem for
Oracle RAC and Fusion Middleware on VMware. Before you begin to deploy the Cloud Map, make sure that you
have read and followed the ―Cloud Map prerequisites and caveats‖ , ―VMware setup‖ and ―Server Automation‖
sections in that paper.

Resource pool requirements
Storage pool requirements
50 GB for boot storage for each database RAC system (customizable).
A single 100 GB ASM disk (that is named for Oracle Automatic Storage Management database disks) for
database storage that is shared among the RAC database servers (customizable to fit your database storage
requirements).
20 GB for boot storage for each OFM system (customizable.)
We will describe below how to customize the template to support your requirements. In order for the template to
deploy successfully, you will need to pre-configure a storage pool entry for each server.
Networking requirements
The Cloud Map requires three networks. The names of the networks are the same for the physical networks seen by
the Virtual Connect modules and seen by VMware ESXi server. Only virtual networks can be used for VMware
templates. Here are descriptions of the three networks:
PRIV_147: Network to install Linux. The primary network used between vCenter, ESXi and SA servers to install Linux
virtual machines.
PRIVATE: RAC and OFM private network between the four systems for this application to communicate, which is
also the RAC interconnect network.
PUBLIC: Public external network between all four systems for access to other systems in the company and for external
web browsing. The DNS server must be updatable by deployed RAC servers.
Note:
Network names, VLAN_147, PRIVATE and PUBLIC are hardcoded in the
FindPrimaryIPAddressByLogicalServerId.xsl.
In case you are using different network names in your setup, the names have to
be updated accordingly. Only PRIV_147 should have a DHCP server in it.
Server pool requirements
The Cloud Map template ―Virtual_DBRAC_OFM‖ requires four virtual machines: two for RAC and two for OFM. The
multi-server environment is for a light testing workload and provides for some high availability. It is recommended to
have at least 1GB memory per vCPU and only one WebLogic instance for every 2 vCPUs in the server. Depending on
the RAC and SOA application load in question, you may want to increase the number of servers.
HP Cloud Map
This section describes the process for importing and customizing the downloadable template and workflows.
Download the HP Cloud Map
Go to www.hp.com/go/cloudmaps/oracle. Download the HP Cloud Map for CloudSystem for Oracle RAC and
Fusion Middleware on VMware to your desktop. This will be formatted as a zip file, so you should find an
appropriate directory and unzip the file. The file will contain:
The HP IO template to be imported into HP Insight Dynamics infrastructure orchestration
Workflows to be imported into HP Operations Orchestration (OO)
XSL files to be installed on the HP Systems Insight Manager (HP SIM) server
5
The names of all of the files in the Cloud Map, their descriptions, and file destinations are provided in Table 2.

Note
C:\tmp files are ones that the Insight Orchestration tool creates or uses. If they
are not in that directory, the Cloud Map will not be successful. C:\temp is for
scratch files.
Virtual_DBRAC_OFM.xml installs RAC so a RAC database can be created and imported. It also sets up and
configures a WebLogic/SOA admin server and a managed server on the OFM servers. This template can be
expanded to have one admin server and a number of managed servers. The initial template can be used for a small
setup or to debug any initial configuration issues you may have.
Import the template
From the Insight Orchestration Designer portal, select the ―Import‖ button as shown in Figure 1.
Figure 1. Insight Orchestration Designer
7
The following dialog will be presented. You should find the template file you downloaded, select it here, and press
―Open‖. This will import the template into HP IO. The ―Virtual_DBRAC_OFM‖ template shown in Figure 2 is chosen.
Figure 2. Upload a template
Because the template defines networking, storage and bootable disk requirements, you will encounter the warning
shown in Figure 3 upon import. The problem is resolved later. This is normal; you will need to reconfigure the boot
properties to select a bootable disk on your system. This will be described later.
8
Figure 3. The import states that the rh5_vmware_seq does not exist even if it is present.
After import, you should see a template that looks like Figure 4. You will notice that the Validation Status is showing
errors (see red circle). If you select the Show Issues button, it will highlight the areas requiring attention.
9
Figure 4. Template with Validation Status showing errors
Figure 5 shows two errors that need attention - highlighted in red. They state that the OFMAppServer and
DatabaseRAC server pools do not exist in this installation. We will now address these issues.
10
Figure 5. Two errors in server template validation
Edit server group configuration
Next we will address the server configuration. Right click on both OFMAppServer icon and DatabaseRAC icon and
select ―Edit Server Group Configuration‖ as shown in Figure 6.
11
Figure 6. Configuring the server group
The SA sequence for installing Red Hat 5.5 on virtual machines must be selected for both server groups. In this case,
rh5_vmware_seq is checked as shown in the Figure 7.
Figure 7. Confirm the rh5_vmware_seq to install on the virtual machines.
Saving or changing configuration
As shown in Figure 8, the template is now valid as shown by the checkmark circled in red. Save the HP IO template
by pressing the Save icon circled in red.
12
Optionally, you can also modify the template before saving. You can change the number of vCPUs for the RAC
and/or OFM servers, change the amount of memory allocated to each, and/or change the size of the ASM virtual
disk.
Figure 8. Imported template is ready to be saved, but customization can also be done.
Importing the workflows
Before you can complete the required changes to the template, you need to import the workflows that are used in the
template. Launch HP Operations Orchestration Studio either from the desktop icon or from the Start menu and login
as admin user and specify the password you used during Insight Dynamics installation.
Select Repository and then Add Repository (see Figure 9).
13
Figure 9. Add Repository
14
Type in a Repository Name and select the location where you copied the repository files. The example in Figure 10
shows a Repository Name of vCloudSARACOFM and opening up the repository at C:\temp\vSARACOFMworkflow
on the CMS server. Click OK to open the repository in Studio.
Figure 10. Add Repository Name
15
Click on Repository and then Set Target Repository and select your Default Public Repository.
Figure 11. Set Target Repository
16
Click on Repository again and then Publish Source To Target – Preview. Circled in red in Figure 12 are the objects to
be published. Click on the Apply icon circled in green in Figure 12. Note that in this private repository are the
routines to be added circled in blue.
Figure 12. Publish Source To Target – Preview
17
If desired enter a comment for the imported workflow and click on OK.
Figure 13. Publish workflow with comment in white box
18
A confirmation message is displayed as shown in Figure 14. The workflow has been added to the default repository.
Figure 14. Publish completed successfully
19
Click on Repository, then Open Repository and select Default Public Repository.
Figure 15. Open Default Repository
20
After importing the CloudRAClinux and OFMlinuxforRACVM (bundled in CloudRAClinux) workflows, they appear in
the left pane. The workflow utilized by the template appears in Figure 16. The other workflows that appear and are
not circled are for other Cloud Maps unrelated to this one.
Figure 16. Workflow for Virtual_DBRAC_OFM template
21
Next we will add the System Properties that are required for both workflows. Expand the Configuration folder, then
right click on System Properties and select New as shown in Figure 17.
Figure 17. Start adding System Properties
Enter AdminUser for the System Property name and click on OK.
Figure 18. System administrator login
22
Specify the name of the AdminUser you want to create in the Property Value field. The example below sets
AdminUser to be Administrator.
Figure 19. Give System Property a specific value
Several more System Properties need to be added. Table 3 lists the required System Properties and descriptions.
Following the method described above, create a new System Property for each property listed in the table.
Table 3. System Properties required for the CloudRAClinux and OFMlinuxforRACVM workflows
Property Description
AdminUser
Administrative User for CMS Server, which is normally a Microsoft® Windows® server,
although it doesn’t have to be. For Windows, the value of this field is normally
Administrator. [For both workflows]
AdminPassword AdminUser’s password [For both workflows]
GridOraclePassword Password for properties RemoteCommandGridUser and RemoteCommandOracleUser on
RAC systems. [For RAC workflow]
RACClusterName Name of RAC Cluster. Default name is raccluster. [For RAC workflow]
23
Property Description
RemoteCommandGridUser The grid user (usually grid) [For RAC workflow]
RemoteCommandOracleUser The oracle user (usually oracle) [For RAC workflow]
RemoteCommandUser Administrative user for Linux server to install OFM SOA (usually root) [For OFM workflow]
RemoteCommandPassword Password for RemoteCommandUser [For OFM workflow]
You can now save your modifications and close Operations Orchestration.
Review the template
After importing the workflows, return to Insight Orchestration Designer to review the workflow associated with the
template. Click on the ―Workflows‖ button (circled in red in Figure 20) to attach the workflows to the template.
Figure 20. Attaching the workflows to the Virtual_DBRAC_OFM template
In Figure 21, each workflow must be associated with the template. This is not done automatically.
24
Figure 21. Execution points for workflows
The two main workflows, CloudRAClinux and SetupOFM, are called at the end of the Create Service execution point.
The CaptureXML workflow is strictly for debugging. This workflow will write the XML to a file in the c:\tmp folder of
the CMS when the service is created. The generated XML can then be easily copied into Operations Orchestration
Studio for debugging. Verify the execution point for each workflow is properly set in the template.
The CloudRAClinux must come before the SetupOFM workflow because the RAC workflow is executed first. To add
the workflows, click on the ―Add‖ button that is circled in red and then choose to add in the workflow by specifying
the tree path. The initial path for both CaptureXML and CloudRAClinux is /Library/Hewlett-Packard/Insight
Orchestration/Service Actions/CloudRAClinux. For SetupOFM, the path is /Library/Hewlett-Packard/Insight
Orchestration/Service Actions/OFMlinuxforRACVM.
In Figure 21, also note the red circled checkbox. Each of the three workflows has a checkbox marked as specified in
Table 4.
Table 4. Workflow Execution points
Workflow name Execution point
CaptureXML Create Service: Beginning
CloudRAClinux Create Service: End
SetUpOFM Create Service: End
Save and publish the template
Now the template Validation Status should be green, so we can save and publish the template. Insert comments in the
Notes section that will help your users know when to choose this template, click on the checkbox next to ―Published‖,
and click on the Save icon to save the template.
25
Figure 22. Publish the updated template
Your users will now be able to select and deploy this template from the HP IO User Portal.
Create the service
Once the template edit is complete and the server and storage pools have been created, a service can be created. In
the Create Service window, enter a service name. The example in Figure 23 shows a Hostname Completion string of
―rac‖. Using a hostname completion string of server, the RAC virtual machines have names of vdrac01 and vdrac02.
The OFM virtual machines have names vfmrac01 and vfmrac02.
26
Figure 23. Create the service
27
If you wish to change the Lease End date, Email address, or Server Pools selection, click on the Options button to
make your modifications. (See Figure 24). Note that the Selected Server Pool chosen is the esx host server pool
circled in red, which is the server pool that holds the ESXi server. In the Available Server Pools area, note that
Integrity servers and x86 servers circled in green are not chosen because they happen to be physical server pools
and do not qualify for deployment of virtual machine HP IO templates.
Figure 24. Service options
Deployment of a Virtual_DB_11_22 service begins after you click Submit. If all the required resources are available,
logical servers will be created and VMware virtual machines will be cloned on disk areas carved out of the VMware
data store. After the Linux operating systems are deployed, the workflows will run and complete the installation by
running a shell script. Oracle RAC will be installed first using Oracle’s runInstaller and then OFM SOA Suite will be
installed by utilizing Oracle’s apply clone functionality. In addition, the SOA domain will be unpacked.
28
Successful deployment
Insight Orchestration status
As shown in Figure 25, Insight Orchestration reports the successful completion of creating the service using the
template Virtual_DBRAC_OFM.
Figure 25. Two RAC and two OFM virtual machines successfully deployed automatically in 63 minutes
29
Database creation using Oracle Enterprise Manager
As shown in Figure 26, part of the validation process for the template deployment is successfully creating a RAC
database using Oracle Enterprise Manager. This is a manual step done by the customer after Insight Orchestration
completes. The Cloud Map does not create a demo database because it is expected that a customer will have their
own database with their own specific data for the deployed servers.
Figure 26. Oracle Enterprise Manager 11g shows created clouddb RAC database
Oracle SOA domain customization
After infrastructure orchestration has completed the installation of RAC and OFM SOA Suite, deploy your specific
SOA application into the admin console, configure the SOA domain per your specific environment, and then bring
up the admin server and managed server. See the WebLogic Server Administration Console in Figure 27. As with the
RAC database, a vanilla or demo instance is not used because the customer will have specific OFM products that
need to be deployed with a specific domain.
30
Figure 27. WebLogic admin console shows that admin server and one managed server are up. The other managed servers are
reserved for expansion.
Post deployment
After deploying the database, especially if you have multiple development / test RAC instances, you may wish to use
HP Storage Essentials Storage Resource Management (SRM) Database Viewer to manage your RAC databases on HP
3PAR, EVA, or other storage. Storage Essentials SRM Database Viewer is an optional plug-in component to extend
end-to-end capacity, performance, and dependency management capabilities from application to storage spindles.
Figure 28 shows an example of HP Storage Essentials managing a RAC database using Oracle ASM.
For more information on HP Storage Essentials, see the following Storage Essentials Data Sheet
http://h20195.www2.hp.com/V2/GetPDF.aspx/4AA0-1720ENW.pdf, or product page for HP Storage Essentials
Storage Resource Management Standard Edition Software – Overview & Features,
http://h18006.www1.hp.com/products/software/bto/srmgt/standard/index.html.
You can access manuals at http://support.openview.hp.com/selfsolve/manuals by searching under ―storage
essentials srm‖ and looking for the latest release. You will need to login to HP Passport.

Figure 28. HP Storage Essentials SRM Database Viewer topology for Oracle RAC using ASM volumes
HP 3PAR has partnered with Oracle to promote Oracle ASM and thin provisioning for most of the past decade. 3PAR
thin provisioning and thin reclamation technology
Provide a dramatic reduction in storage cost
Simplify database storage management
Enable resource optimization
Don’t sacrifice performance
To learn how you can take advantage of thin provisioning for your RAC database, see
http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/database/oracle-3par-wp-final-0-130057.pdf and
http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/database/oracle-asru-3par.pdf.
As a result of joint performance testing, Oracle and HP concluded that using HP 3PAR thin provisioning in conjunction
with ASM and the database autoextend feature yielded minimal performance impact. Since this initial development
with 3PAR, Oracle has actively supported all vendors implementing thin provisioning. It should be noted that the
VMware boot disks are not thinly provisioned, just the ASM shared disk for the database.

Summary
Built on the HP BladeSystem, CloudSystem Matrix is a Converged Infrastructure platform providing pools of computer,
storage and network resources that can be quickly deployed. The goals of Matrix are to help accelerate provisioning,
to optimize IT capacity across physical and virtual environments and to ensure predictable delivery and service levels.
This enables companies to address some of the key datacenter pain points facing them today including rising costs,
low utilization rates, and inflexible environments.
With Matrix, powered by HP Matrix Operating Environment, application services can be quickly provisioned using
infrastructure orchestration templates. This enables IT organizations to develop service-driven, standardized
application deployment processes. The HP Cloud Map for CloudSystem for Oracle RAC and Fusion Middleware on
VMware detailed in this paper provides guidance to automate the installation of RAC and provisioning of a SOA
instance automatically and quickly in a repeatable fashion.
