Introduction

This Technical Architecture document describes the hardware and software requirements needed to successfully teach the course module stated above. This means the hardware and application software system described in this document will provide the required infrastructure on which to run the course module in Oracle University.

This is a technical document prepared by a curriculum developer. Its intended audience is technical personnel within Oracle University and Global IT, who should review its contents to ensure it falls within their policies for the purchase of IT equipment and is appropriate for teaching, and integrated, where required with the current technical architecture. The personnel responsible for the design and build of the technical environment should read this document as it describes the systems on which they will deploy and run the new course module.


V2

Architectural Assumptions

The following assumptions have been made that will affect the preparation of the Technical Architecture.

Assumption:

The environment setup described is to be run in the education centers at Oracle Corporation.

Impact:

This ensures that the environment can be tested with known hardware/software, and limitations can be specified based on the identified hardware/software.


V2

Network Structure

The table below describes the networks that are to be used by the new application.

Network Name

Network Protocol

Purpose Controlling System Component

Links to Other Networks

WAN TCP/IP To provide access to the data center throughout Oracle Corporation

Global Networks The Internet via a firewall

Read the table using the following information:

Network Name The name used to identify the network within the organization.

Network Protocol The protocol used for the network.

Purpose The reason why the network has been created.

Controlling System Component

The configuration of the system component which controls the network.

Links to Other Networks

The links provided to other networks form this one.


V2

System Configuration

The table below shows where the system components are located. The configurations of each of these system components are described in the System Component Configuration component of this document.

Location System Component Configuration

Number Network Connection

Education Centers

Education PC’s Ranges from 6 to 30 10/100 Base T

Data Center Application Servers 240 100 Base T

Read the table using the following information:

Location The geographical location of the Configuration.

System Component Configuration

A system component configuration located at the site. This will be one of the system component configurations identified in System Component Configurations below.

Number The number of system components of this configuration at the location.

Network Connection

The network the system components are linked to, taken from the network structure above.


V2

System Component Configuration

The tables below describe the configuration of each of the components of the system. The contents of this list vary depending on the type of system component being described.

Education PC’s (Education Centers)

Dell Optiplex 800Mhz processor 512 MB RAM 6 + GB available user disk space 17" SVGA monitors

The instructor workstation is identical except for the addition of a CD ROM drive.

Application Servers (Data Center)

Dells machines running LINUX with NetApp Filers


V2

Software Environments

The list below describes the environments that are available on the various machines within the system to support the different ways the system will be used. The production environment is where the application runs, test is where updates and amendments to the application are tested and development is where the application is developed.

Education PC’s (Education Centers)

Windows NT 4.0 w/Service Pack 5 or higher Microsoft Office 95 (Word, Excel, PowerPoint) or higher Microsoft Office 97 Viewers or higher Internet Explorer 5.5 or higher Oracle Client 10g installation (including SQL*Plus and NET8) Winzip 7.0 FTP software (Smart Term) ADI 7.1.17 Workflow Builder 2.6.3 or higher version corresponding to Oracle

Applications version Acrobat Reader 5 Jinitiator 1.1.8.16 and other versions ADE 12


V2

Oracle University Vision Demo

The ADS VISION demo in Oracle University

The VISION demo environment is used to teach the current release of Oracle Applications. Due to the ongoing release of new Oracle products GES may not have the patch level or latest release from ADS available in the OU education centers.

The VISION demo includes only the core Oracle Applications. If other products (including Oracle products) are required for a specific course this should be documented and submitted to GES and the Product Management group. They will evaluate this request and if it is deemed appropriate have the software installed.

Access to this training environment is restricted to web access only. If a course requires additional access or privileges this should be documented and submitted as well.

Data in the Oracle University VISION demo

The GES data center instances do not support "Data" customization. That is, you CAN add data into Vision to further tailor your class however these changes will not be archived for future use. If you believe that certain data needs to be included in the demo please submit a request for the data via ADSWEB, and they will evaluate the need and if appropriate will attempt to get the data added. All appropriate and required seed data should be available for all courses without the need to add additional data.

Patching in Oracle University VISION

Post-release patches and updates are required to keep the demo environments current. However, GES will only apply patches that have been applied and released by ADS. Patchsets or Family packs will not be applied between Vision releases.

Deviations from the existing Hardware/Software environment

This section provides the deviation from the existing environment at Oracle University or at Education Support Services.

Hardware Deviation

This section specifies the hardware requirements for the module: R12.1 Implement Oracle Workflow.

None.

Software Deviation

This section specifies the software requirements for the module: R12.1 Implement Oracle Workflow.

This course requires Vision Release 12.1.1 or higher.

Architecture Deviation

This section specifies the architecture requirements for the module: R12.1 Implement Oracle Workflow.

Students will need the following network connections:

Telnet as APPS to the machine housing the class database (to load workflow definitions created during class practices)

SQL*Plus access to the class database

User requirements

This section provides the hardware/software requirement on a per user basis.

Each student PC needs the following software products installed:

Oracle Workflow Builder version 2.6.3.0.1 from the Oracle E-Business Suite Release 12.1.1 media pack

A Web browser supported for Oracle E-Business Suite, such as Microsoft Internet Explorer or Mozilla Firefox. See: Recommended Browsers for Oracle E-Business Suite Release 12, My Oracle Support Knowledge Document 389422.1.

A text editor


V2

Lab file requirements

This section provides the lab file requirements for the client and server for the module: R12.1 Implement Oracle Workflow.

Please make sure you specify exact directory structures.

The following supporting lab files should be installed in a Labs folder (ex: E:\Labs) on each student client PC and on the instructor’s PC:
