Mobile Wireless Applications (MWA) Telnet GUI Client for 11i/R12

To use MWA GUI Client ,The MWA server need to be setup and it must be accessibe from telnet.

The below steps are applicable for both 11i and R12(12.0.X and 12.1.X) Versions, Though the patch is for 11i.

1) Create 2 directories say C:\MWA\lib and C:\MWA\log

2) Extract the patch files from the patch p4205328_11i_GENERIC into C:\MWA\lib

3) Install jdk1.1.8 on your PC

4) Create a batch file say Start_MWA.bat on desktop with the following contents

Open notepad and copy & paste the below content and save it as Start_MWA.bat

set MWA_GUI_TOP=C:\MWA\
set JAVA_TOP=c:\jdk1.1.8
%JAVA_TOP%\bin\java -classpath %JAVA_TOP%\lib\classes.zip;%MWA_GUI_TOP%\lib\j4205328.zip oracle.apps.mwa.awt.client.StartGUI

5) Whenever you run this batch file, you must be able to see the GUI client for MWA

The loging screen will like below.

What is the difference between startup Upgrade and Migrate

What is the difference between startup Upgrade and Migrate:



startup migrate:
---------------
Used to upgrade a database till 9i.


Startup Upgrade ?
---------------
From 10G  we are using startup upgrade to upgrade database.


What happens internally when you use startup upgrade/migrate?
------------------------------------------------------------
It will adjust few database (init) parameters (irrespective of what you have defined) automatically to certain values in order to run upgrade scripts smoothely.

in other way..it will issue few alter statements to set certain parameters which are required to complete the upgrade scripts without any issues.

Oracle E-Business Suite 12.2 is coming soon:

Oracle E-Business Suite 12.2 is coming soon:

Oracle apps 12.2 is coming soon, This version Replacing OC4J with WebLogic Server 11G,It comes with database version 11G,

Please find the below architecture, More details can be found from http://blogs.oracle.com/stevenChan

Configure Parallel Concurrent Processing For Oracle Applications

Configure Parallel Concurrent Processing (Note ID:362135.1)
NOTE: This section is for UNIX platforms only. Windows users should follow the instructions in Appendix F for configuration of Parallel Concurrent Processing and transaction managers.

a) PCP Prerequisites:
---------------------
It is assumed that you have more than one Concurrent processing tiers in your environment to setup PCP.
If you do not have this refer to Oracle MetaLink Note: 230672.1 for cloning of Applications tier.

b) Set Up PCP:
-------------
   1. Execute AutoConfig by using $COMMON_TOP/admin/scripts/<context_name>/adautocfg.sh on all concurrent nodes.
   2. Source the application environment by using $APPL_TOP/APPSORA.env
   3. Check the configuration files tnsnames.ora and listener.ora located under 8.0.6 ORACLE_HOME at $ORACLE_HOME /network/admin/<context>. Ensure that you         have information of all the other concurrent nodes for FNDSM and FNDFS entries.
   4. Restart the application listener processes on each application node.
   5. Logon to Oracle E-Business Suite Applications using SYSADMIN in login and System Administrator Responsibility. Navigate to Install > Nodes screen             and ensure that each node in the cluster is registered.
 
   6. Verify whether the Internal Monitor for each node is defined properly with correct primary and secondary node specification and work shift details.           Also make sure the Internal Monitor manager is activated by going into Concurrent -> Manager -> Administrator and activate the manager.
      (e.g. Internal Monitor: Host2 must have primary node as host2 and secondary node as host3)
   7. Set the $APPLCSF environment variable on all the CP nodes pointing to a log directory on a shared file system.
   8. Set the $APPLPTMP environment variable on all the CP nodes to the value of the UTL_FILE_DIR entry in init.ora on the database nodes. This value should        be pointing to a directory on a shared file system.
   9. Set profile option ' Concurrent: PCP Instance Check' to OFF if DB instance sensitive failover is not required. By setting it to 'ON' Concurrent               Managers will failover to a secondary middle-tier node when database instance it is connected goes down.
