Oracle EBS R12 Architecture Introduction
This section describes the Oracle Applications architecture and some of the features that this architecture supports. The following topics are included:
• Overview
• The Desktop Tier
• The Application Tier
• The Database Tier
• The Oracle Applications Technology Layer
The Oracle Applications Architecture is a framework for multi-tiered, distributed computing that supports Oracle Applications products. In this model, various servers or services are distributed among three levels, or tiers.
A server (or services) is a process or group of processes that runs on a single machine and provides a particular functionality. For example, For example, Web services process
HTTP requests and Forms services process requests for activities related to Oracle Forms. The Concurrent Processing server supports data-intensive programs that run in the background.
Important: The term server, in the sense of a single process, is less appropriate in the Release 12 architecture. Where applicable, replacement terms such as services are used.
A tier is a logical grouping of services, potentially spread across more than one physical machine. The three-tier architecture that comprises an Oracle E-Business Suite installation is made up of the database tier, which supports and manages the Oracle database; the application tier, which supports and manages the various Applications components, and is sometimes known as the middle tier; and the desktop tier, which provides the user interface via an add-on component to a standard web browser.
Single node R12 Vision implementation was done in CESERP server, where the database tier and application tier are on the same node i.e. same machine - CESERP

Domain Name System (DNS) Resolver Parameters
Two Domain Name System (DNS) resolver parameters (timeout and attempts) are set by default to low values when the operating system is installed. These low values may cause attempted network connections to an Oracle database to fail. If this happens, add or update the following entries to these minimum settings in the /etc/resolv.conf file on each server node:
options attempts:5
options timeout:15
Host Names Settings
Verify that the /etc/hosts file is formatted as follows:
127.0.0.1 Localhost.localdomain localhost
Modifying the Number of Open File Descriptors
Open the /etc/security/limits.conf file and change the existing values for "hard" and "soft" parameters as follows
* Hard nofile 65535
* Soft nofile 4096
* Hard nproc 16384
* Soft nproc 2047.
Restart the system after making changes
Note: If the current value for any parameter is higher than the value listed in this document, then do not change the value of that parameter

Preparing for Installation
R12 EBS software
User creation
Oracle – Oracle user for Vision install
Applmgr - Application user for Vision install
Provide appropriate permissions (provide chmod 777 to the software directory).
Install Unzip (if the Unix m/c doesn’t have one)
1.Login as root
2.mkdir
$ cd /home
$ mkdir applmgr
$ mkdir oracle
3.useradd
make two users oracle,applmgr
useradd applmgr –p applmgr -g dba -d /home/applmgr
useradd oracle –p oracle -g dba -d /home/oracle
change owner --- chown –R
(for both users)
chown -R applmgr : dba applmgr
chown -R oracle : dba oracle
FTP the files to the UNIX server CESERP to the software location.
For Rapid Install you need to download all the zip files belonging to the following parts:
Rapid Install Start Here
Rapid Install RDBMS
Rapid Install Databases
Rapid Install Tools
Rapid Install APPL_TOP
Unzip utility for Linux server can be downloaded from the below url http://updates.oracle.com/unzips/unzips.html
Instructions to install UnZip on UNIX platforms
1.Download the file and transfer it to the UNIX machine in binary mode.
2.Uncompress the file:
% uncompress unzip_
3.Put the file in a directory that is included in your PATH, typically /usr/bin or
/usr/local/bin.
4.Make sure that the file has execution permissions set. If not, run:
% chmod 751 unzip_
5.To unzip a file using this executable, just run:
% unzip_os
Creation of stage area
Do the staging using adautostg.pl and choose the option1.
It will ask for the CD Distributions. Enter the Disks as per the Distribution.
If the Release 12 installation is performed with the Rapid Install wizard. Before Installing ensure you have the latest Rapid Install patch
For R12.0.4 latest rapid install patch is 6796703
unzip the patch, this will create a folder ( startCD ). Copy this folder and paste it in the Stage area i.e., Overwrite the existing ( startCD ).
Create a new directory stage12 under /software with 777 permissions.
oracle@CESERP:~/software $ls -la
total 20
drwxrwxrwx 7 oracle dba 1024 May 26 16:25 stage12
Unzip every 12.0 Rapid Install zip files you downloaded, in the top-level Stage12 directory that you created earlier:
After unzipping all the files, validate that the stage area has a top-level directory stage12, with subdirectories startCD, oraApps, oraDB, oraAS, and oraAppDB.
oracle@CESERP:~/software/stage12 $ls -la
drwxrwxrwx 7 root root 232 2008-05-29 15:40 oraDB
drwxrwxrwx 50 root root 1264 2008-05-29 15:59 oraAppDB
