Oracle Fusion Applications Installation: Apply mandatory Patches

Previous: Install Oracle Identity and Access Management Components

Database Patches

1. PSU 11.2.0.3.4

This patch is already applied as part of database installation

2. Apply other database patches

[fusion@fmwhost patch]$ /app/fusion/database/product/11.2.0/dbhome_1/OPatch/opatch napply

All the patches are already installed as part of database creation using provisioning wizard.

The following patch(es) are already installed in the Oracle Home.

[10263668 11837095 12312133 12317925 12646746 12772404 12889054 12977501 12985184 13014128 13078786 13365700 13404129 13454210 13508115 13615767 13632653 13714926 13743987 13787482 13790109 13918644 14013094 14029429 14058884 14110275 14143796 14164849 14207317 14226599 14499293 14653598 14679292 14698700 14725518 14743385 14793168 14840138 15832953 15885799]

Please roll back the existing identical patch(es) first.

 

Weblogic Server Patches

We have 2 options to apply Weblogic patches. Here is the first method using GUI.

[fusion@fmwhost weblogic]$ mkdir /app/fusion/fmw/utils/bsu/cache_dir/

[fusion@fmwhost weblogic]$ pwd

/mnt/hgfs/setup/installers/smart_update/weblogic

[fusion@fmwhost weblogic]$ cp -pr *.jar /app/fusion/fmw/utils/bsu/cache_dir/

[fusion@fmwhost weblogic]$ cp -pr *.xml /app/fusion/fmw/utils/bsu/cache_dir/

 

Start Weblogic Smart Update using bsu command at <MW_HOME>/utils/bsu location

 

[fusion@fmwhost weblogic]$ cd /app/fusion/fmw/utils/bsu/

[fusion@fmwhost bsu]$ ./bsu.sh

 

Click on the green icon under Apply column for each of the patch to validate and apply the same.

 

 

Do the same for all other patches.

 

 

 

Once you see above screen, it means all patches are successfully applied to Weblogic.

 

Or alternatively we can use following method

 

The WebLogic server patches are available under the FA Repository/installers/smart_update/weblogic directory. Follow the patch Readme and apply all the patches in the directory. Use the following command to apply all the patches:

 

java -jar FA Repository/installers/smart_update/suwrapper/bsu-wrapper.jar \

-bsu_home=/bea/mw_home/utils/bsu -meta=./suw_metadata.txt -install \

-patchlist=<WLS Patch List>\

-patch_download_dir=FA Repository/installers/smart_update/weblogic\ -prod_dir=/u01/oim/wlserver_10.3

For the WLS Patch List, provide a comma-separated list of WLS patches from the

following directory in the FA Repository: FA Repository/installers/smart_

update/weblogic

Applying Workarounds

 

Provisioning the OIM Login Modules Under the WebLogic Server Library Directory

 

Due to issues with versions of the configuration wizard, some environmental variables are not added to the DOMAIN_HOME/bin/setDomainenv.sh script. This causes certain install sequences to fail. This is a temporary workaround for that problem.

 

1. Copy the files located under the IAM_ORACLE_HOME/server/loginmodule/wls directory to the MW_HOME/wlserver_10.3/server/lib/mbeantypes directory.

 

[fusion@fmwhost ~]$ ls -ltr /app/fusion/fmw/wlserver_10.3/server/lib/mbeantypes/

total 2896

[fusion@fmwhost ~]$ cp -pr /app/fusion/fmw/iam/server/loginmodule/wls/* /app/fusion/fmw/wlserver_10.3/server/lib/mbeantypes/

 

2. Change directory to MW_HOME/wlserver_10.3/server/lib/mbeantypes/

 

[fusion@fmwhost ~]$ cd /app/fusion/fmw/wlserver_10.3/server/lib/mbeantypes/

 

3. Change the permissions on these files to 750 by using the chmod command.

 

[fusion@fmwhost mbeantypes]$ chmod 750 *

 

Creating the wlfullclient.jar File

 

Oracle Identity Manager uses the wlfullclient.jar library for certain operations. Oracle does not ship this library, so you must create this library manually. We will see mention of this during provisioning.

 

[fusion@fmwhost ~]$ cd /app/fusion/fmw/wlserver_10.3/server/lib

[fusion@fmwhost lib]$ ls -l wlfullclient.jar

wlfullclient.jar: No such file or directory

 

[fusion@fmwhost lib]$ java -jar wljarbuilder.jar

Created new jar file: /app/fusion/fmw/wlserver_10.3/server/lib/wlfullclient.jar

 

[fusion@fmwhost lib]$ ls -l wlfullclient.jar

-rw-r–r– 1 fusion dba 55004433 Mar 4 17:14 wlfullclient.jar

 

This concludes the installation of Oracle Identity Management components. Instead of directly configuring these components, we need to apply the mandatory patches first. These patches are listed in the latest release notes. Please refer to the latest release notes for the list of updated patches when you are installing.

Please note that the Webgate Patch is pending since we are yet to install webgate. We will install if required after installing webgate later

Next: Configure Oracle Identity and Access Management components

Installing Oracle Fusion Applications – steps

  1. Install Fusion Applications Provisioning Framework
  2. Install Oracle 11g Database (Applications Transactional Database)
  3. Run Oracle Fusion Applications Repository Creation Utility (Applications RCU)
  4. Create another database for Oracle Identity Management Infrastructure (optional)
  5. Run Repository Creation Utility (RCU) for Oracle Identity Management components
  6. Install Oracle Identity and Access Management Components
  7. Apply mandatory Patches
  8. Configure Oracle Identity and Access Management components
  9. Integrate Oracle Identity Manager (OIM) and Oracle Access Manager (OAM)
  10. Install provisioning framework on Node 2
  11. Create new Response File
  12. Provision an Applications Environment (Editing in progress, this link currently points to 11.1.5 counterpart)

    Dear Rahul,

    export ORACLE_HOME=/app/fusion/database/product/11.2.0/dbhome_1
    export PATH=$PATH:$ORACLE_HOME/bin

    Please note that you are referring to old document for Fusion Apps installation (11.1.6). The latest link for Fusion Apps 11.1.8 installation is as follows.
