Installing the Oracle SOA Suite on Red Hat 6Peter Lorenzen 16/072013

Here is my experiences with installing SOA Suite 11.1.1.7 on Red Hat 6 (64bit) using Java 7.

First have a look at the documentation: Oracle Fusion Middleware Download, Installation, and Configuration ReadMe (11.1.1.7.0) Oracle Fusion Middleware Installation Planning Guide (11.1.1.7.0) Oracle Fusion Middleware Installation Guide for Oracle SOA Suite and Oracle BPM Suite (11.1.1.7.0)

Before using the direkt download links to http://download.oracle.com you need to login in to thesite and accept a License Agreement. It does not matter which product you choose.

Prepare the OS

I am using Red Hat 6 64bit. Check the “System Requirements for UNIX Operating Systems”. Also check “Special Startup Requirements for Linux x86 or Linux x8664 Operating Systems” in thesame document.

This should install the needed packages:

Change the open file limits in /etc/security/limits.conf

Change the kernel parameters that need changing. Often the default values are OK. Normally I only change/add these two and this is really only needed if you use Coherence.

Create user, group and directories.

Set the umask for the oracle user. If you don’t want to set it in the .bash_profile at least set it manuallywhen installing the software as suggested by Oracle.

Enabling Unicode Support in the .bash_profile for the oracle user.

Install Java

Unzip and untar the downloaded file:

After I install Java I always create a softlink to the installation directory and reference it everywhere.This makes it is easier later when you have to upgrade.

Install the latest Java SE CPU patch

Check the Java SE Critical Patch Update (CPU) to see if you need to patch the Java you have installed. The latest Java SE CPU is from June 2013. It patches update 21 and earlier. I use update 25 so there is noneed to patch it.

Until now the Java SE CPU has had its own release schedule but from October it will follow the sameschedule as the other Oracle products.

Take care when downloading the wls1036_generic.jar file since some browsers will rename it towls1036_generic.zip.

I use Xming as X Server on Windows. “Xming” currently has a problem with Java 7. When you start theOracle installer most things work, but under certain conditions you cannot make selections via mouse orkeyboard. This stumped me a bit until Simon Haslam pointed out what was going on. Xming is based onCygwin that currently has a bug. As Simon points out a workaround is to not set multiwindow on. Thisworks but is not a good solution since you sometime get a mashup of screens.

To get around the problem I temporary install Java 6 and use it during the installation.

Djava.io.tmpdir is only needed if there is not enough tmp space.

Below I have ignored the screens where you can sign up for security updates etc.

Here my Java soft link is “ignored” so we have to fix this later.







The Java soft link was “ignored” so we have to fix this:

Install the latest WebLogic Server PSU patch

Oracle releases quarterly security updates. You can read more about CPU, SPU, PSU and BP patcheshere.

WebLogic 10.3.6 April 2013 PSU 10.3.6.0.4 patch 16083651 (p16083651_1036_Generic.zip)

Make sure all WebLogic servers are stopped and remove any previously applied Patch Set Update andassociated overlay patches.

To find out if there exists any patches that you should install check “Information Center: Oracle SOASuite 11g [ID 1369339.2]” on MOS and Known Issues for Oracle SOA Products and Oracle AIAFoundation Pack on OTN.

Also make sure you check for SPU patches for the SOA Suite. Currently there are no SPU and no bundlepatches for this release.

When you patch the SOA Suite always remember to download and install the latest OPatch version fromMOS.

Create database schemas via the RCU

First have a look at the documentation: Oracle Fusion Middleware Repository Creation Utility User’s Guide

Also have a look at the RCU MOS FAQ: “Oracle Fusion Middleware 11g Repository Creation Utility(RCU) – FAQ [ID 1304790.1]”

Check the database requirements.

SID != Service Name RCU uses the Service Name when connecting to a database, not the SID. The SID and the Service Namecan contain different values. You can find the Service Name in the database via:

Which schema’s are required? To figure out which schema’s are required have a look at the documentation.

Tablespaces You can create tablespaces via the RCU but I prefer to create them myself. A database will often have a default tablespace called USERS. It often ends up being a mess with all kindof different objects that nobody really knows why are there You should create separate tablespaces and use them after the kind of data that goes in them: Object size,growth rate, object type (Tables, LOBs, etc.)

Start the RCU cd ofm_rcu_linux_11.1.1.7.0_64_disk1_1of1/rcuHome/bin ./rcu

Configure the SOA Suite

Use config.sh to create a domain. If you experience problems you can enable logging to a file. It ispossible to set the log level etc.

The CONFIG_JVM_ARGS is set to speed things up if the system is low on entropy.

export CONFIG_JVM_ARGS=”Djava.security.egd=file:/dev/./urandom” cd /u01/app/oracle/product/soa/Oracle_SOA1/common/bin ./config.sh


http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E28280_01/install.1111/e13925/troubleshooting.htm#BABDHBHJ






I only need the SOA Suite and the BPM Suite, so no BAM. Do not select products you do not need.“Basic WebLogic SIP Server Domain” is for example not compatible with the SOA Suite.

http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E28280_01/install.1111/e13925/configure.htm#CACHGJAE



I like to keep the domains away from the software installation.



In the past I used to not name the default administrator user weblogic on production servers. Just as anextra precaution so you know that you are logging on to a production server. I have never experiencedproblems with this. But a the UKOUG conference last year I was told by somebody that you can get introuble with some of the IDM products if there is no weblogic user.









If you do not select any options on this page the configuration wizard will default create an AdminServerand a soa_server1 with an empty listen address and using port 7001 and 8002. The Node Manager usesport 8001. I like to change listen address, ports etc…













You can use the Summary View dropdown menu to inspect different details about the installation.



Homes overview

There are many homes:

Application Home – /u01/app/oracle/applications/soaDomain Home – /u01/app/oracle/domains/soaMiddleware Home – /u01/app/oracle/product/soaOracle Common Home – /u01/app/oracle/product/soa/oracle_commonOracle Home (SOA Suite) – /u01/app/oracle/product/soa/Oracle_SOA1WebLogic Server Home – /u01/app/oracle/product/soa/wlserver_10.3

For more information check the Oracle Fusion Middleware Installation Planning Guide.

Starting the servers

Start the Admin Server:

Waite till you see:

12

cd /u01/app/oracle/domains/soa./startWebLogic.sh

1 <Server started in RUNNING mode>

http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E28280_01/install.1111/b32474/concepts.htm#BABGIBGJ



Now you should be able to access the Admin Console: http://wintermute:7001/console

And the Fusion Middleware Control: http://wintermute:7001/em

Start the Managed Server in another terminal:

Input username and password when prompted.

It takes a while before soa_server1 reaches the Running state and you will also see a somewarnings/errors being reported.

When it reaches the Running state check the status for the deployments in the Admin Server Console.The deployments should all have status Active. There will be a few that has status Installed. These areoptional modules that default is not target to anything.

For more information about which modules should be targeted where check the appendix “TargetingApplications and Resources to Servers“.

Java parameters

You can set Java memory parameters in several ways. I normally do it by setting USER_MEM_ARGS inDOMAIN_HOME/bin/startWebLogic.sh. For the SOA Suite the setSOADomainEnv.sh in the samedirectory overwrites USER_MEM_ARGS so for SOA Suite I use setSOADomainEnv.sh andPORT_MEM_ARGS.

Development Mode

Production Mode

1 <Server started in RUNNING mode>

12

cd /u01/app/oracle/domains/soa/bin./startManagedWebLogic.sh soa_server1

You also need to comment this out, otherwise the Perm parameters will be set twice.

In Development Mode I have added a parameter to take care of any entropy problems.

In Production Mode Xms and Xmx should always contain the same value for Managed Servers.

By the way if you are messing around with different Java installations etc. this is a good blog post.

debugFlag

If you are not running in Production Mode I always set debugFlag to false. If you do not do this you can get errors like the below, because several servers are trying to use the sameport:

So add this:

This should do it:

If your developers need the debug ports, make sure each server uses unique ports.

I always use the Node Manager (NM) to start and stop WebLogic servers.

1. Set NM user name and password

Use the Admin Console and navigate to the domain. Select Security and then Advanced. Set“NodeManager Username” and “NodeManager Password”:

2. Set the NM type to plain

The NM default uses SSL. I normally do not use SSL for the NM and if you do you should use valid SSLcertificates not the default demo certificates. Navigate to Environment => Machines => machine_1 => Node Manager. Change Type to Plain.

3. Stop the Admin Server and the Managed Server

Stop them via the Admin Console or just ctrl+c in the two terminals.

4. Start the NM

When you see:

Stop NM again with ctrl+c. The NM has now create it’s setup files and we need to make a couple ofchanges in nodemanager.properties in: /u01/app/oracle/product/soa/wlserver_10.3/common/nodemanager

Change these lines:

12

cd /u01/app/oracle/product/soa/wlserver_10.3/server/bin./startNodeManager.sh

1 INFO: Secure socket listener started on port 5556

1

2

javaHome=/u01/app/oracle/product/java_current

JavaHome=/u01/app/oracle/product/java_current/jre



This should do it.

Start the NM again. Wait until you see:

5. Start the Admin Server

In another terminal start the Admin Server:

6. Start the Managed Server

When the Admin Server is Running start the Managed Server via the Admin Console.

Notice that things are a bit different if you use Production Mode.

Configure automatic start of the servers

Now everything is running but of cause the NM should not be started manually but automatically whenthe server boots.

Here is a very simple boot script: /etc/init.d/soaNodeManager

Because of the mentioned problem with Xming I have used Java 6 during the installation.

Before switching to Java 7 you should read “Using WebLogic Server with JDK 7“.

The java_current soft link still points to Java 6 so we should change this:

AQ errors

When you start the WebLogic server you might encounter errors like these in the log files.

There are more than 20 AQ queues in the schemas the RCU has created. Have a look.

For these initial errors errors to go away you only need to enable enqueue/dequeue on 3 of them.

Miscellaneous

You should audit the Logging settings for the domain and the servers to make sure log rotation isconfigured. Notice that .out log files cannot be rotated by WebLogic. The are only rotated when the servers arerestarted. On Windows this is a problem on Linux not so much

But make sure you developers know that:

You should configure “Configuration Archiving” for the domain. Domain => Configuration => General=> Advanced. Set “Configuration Archive Enabled” and “Archive Configuration Count”.

When you change the configuration the old configuration files will automatically be save so you canrevert to an old version if you get in trouble.

Securing your installation

Have a look at Oracle Fusion Middleware Securing a Production Environment for Oracle WebLogicServer 11g

It is of cause only the top of the iceberg but is a start.

Configure OCM

If your servers has access to the Internet OCM will automatically download the latest version. If not youshould download it yourself and install it manually.

Verify that it is working:

Peter,

Thanks for the nice article..I see you have set two linux kernel parameters(net.core.rmem_max andnet.core.wmem_max)..I am not seeing them in the installation guide..Did oracle recommendedthem?

Thanks/Chandra

Hi Chandra, That is a very good question and it took me a while to remember why It is only when you use Coherence you need to set thous. See http://theheat.dk/blog/?p=1140#warnings and The Error “java.net.SocketException: No Buffer Space Available” isReported when Starting Coherence (Doc ID 1150113.1). I will write a comment in the post about this. Thanks Regards Peter

i have small doubet. My database team moved the oracle database from one unix to onther unix box. how can i reconfigure SOA servers to access the database in new unix box? Is changing the datasource is enough or do i have to configure all this thing like configuring RCU?

Thanks In advance.

Yes all you need to do is to change the connection pool in the data sources. Regards Peter
