Running fnd_conc_clone.setup_clean manually is unsupported

 

Oracle Concurrent Processing – Version 12.2 and later

 

Running fnd_conc_clone.setup_clean manually is unsupported.

This API was designed for use internally and although Development has documented running this API in some setup notes it is only where it has been explicitly tested and for that specific setup.

For example, you will find some references to FND_CONC_CLONE.SETUP_CLEAN in the upgrade guide and other development-created documents. However, these are strategically placed.

Running this API outside of the specific places found in the official Oracle documentation (upgrade guide and other development documents) will cause problems and will break the functionality of your Oracle E-Business Suite system.

If fnd_conc_clone.setup_clean has been run, the only option to bring back the system to a stable and safe state will be to restore from a backup taken previously to run the API.

Output Post Processor (OPP) in Oracle Applications R12 and 11i

Output Post Processor (OPP) in Oracle Applications R12 and 11i

ebs

OPP runs as a service that can be managed through Oracle Applications Manager (OAM) from the System Activity page (Navigation: Applications Dashboard > Applications

Service (from the dropdown list) > Go).

How to Increase the number of Output Post Processors?
1.Log on to Applications with “System Administrator” responsibility.
2.Navigate to Concurrent -> Manager -> Define.
3. Query for the “Output Post Processor” service.
4. Click on “Work Shifts” and increase the number of processes

How to get OPP manager log file location?

$APPLCSF/log/<SID>/FNDOPP####.txt       OR
1,System Administrator > Concurrent > Manager > Administer
2,Search for ‘Output Post Processor’
3,Click the ‘Processes’ button .
4, Click the Manager Log button. This will open the ‘OPP’
Upload the OPP log file.

In some cases, Output Post Processor is not starting up and it shows Actual and Target are showing different values when we query for Output Post Processor.
The log files show no error message. In this case, apply the following possible solution for starting the OPP.

1. Shut down the internal manager by using adcmctl.sh stop apps/apps
2. Make sure there are no FNDLIBR processes running:
$ ps -ef| grep FNDLIBR OR ps -ef|grep applprod|grep FNDLIBR
3. If there is any FNDLIBR process please kill it $ kill -9 pid
4. Run cmclean.sql script
5. Restart the internal manager by using adcmctl.sh start apps/apps

or How to kill and start Output Post Processor (OPP) Background:
This article explains how to kill OPP and restart the same

Solution:
1,System Administator > Concurrent > Manager > Administer
2,Query “Output Post Processor” -> Processes button
Get the sytem id of “Output Post Processor”
3,ps -ef|grep [system id]
4,kill -9 [system id] in Unix
5,System Administator > Concurrent > Manager > Administer

How to change apps& sysadmin password in R12.2

How to change apps& sysadmin passwords in R12.2

Important Note: These steps must be carried out on the run file system.

Step 1. Shut down the application tier services using the

[applmgr@document appl]$INST_TOP/admin/scripts/adstpall.sh

 

  1. Change the APPLSYS password.

[applmgr@document appl]$ FNDCPASS apps/apps  0 Y system/ manager   SYSTEM APPLSYS <new apps passwd>

FNDCPASS apps/apps 0 Y system/manager SYSTEM APPLSYS newpasswd

  1. Start AdminServer using the $INST_TOP/admin/scripts/adadminsrvctl.sh
    Note:Don’t start any other application tier services.
  2. Change the “apps” password in WLS Datasource as follows:
    Log in to WLS Administration Console. http://document.subnet.vcn.oraclevcn.com:8000/OA_HTML/AppsLogin

Click Lock & Edit in Change Center.
In the Domain Structure tree, expand Services, then select Data Sources.
On the “Summary of JDBC Data Sources” page, select EBSDataSource
On the “Settings for EBSDataSource” page, select the Connection Pool tab.
Enter the new password in the “Password” field.
Enter the new password in the “Confirm Password” field.
Click Save.

Check whether you are able to connect to DB using apps
sqlplus apps/<newpassword> from application tier.

Before Starting all the services. Run Autoconfig.
cd $ADMIN_SCRIPTS_HOME
sh adautocfg.sh

Now start the services.
Start all the application tier services using the
$INST_TOP/admin/scripts/adstrtal.sh script.

 

How to change the SYSADMIN password

 

[applmgr@document appl]$  FNDCPASS apps/*** 0 Y system/manager USER SYSADMIN new_password

What is Apps Schema?

 

Apps are a schema that does not contain any tables of itself. We can say APPS is the shared runtime schema for all E-Business Suite products. It contains all the synonyms of all the tables in Oracle apps. But it also contains packages, functions, procedures. The default password is apps.

 

What is Applsys Schema?

Applsys schema contains all the tables required for administrative purposes. The default password is apps. All the technical products’ database objects are consolidated into a single schema called Applsys

 

What is Applsyspub schema?

Applsyspub schema is responsible for password checking. The default password is pub.Applsyspub is used for authentication by having read-only views.

 

Why should Apps & Applsys passwords always be the same?

The need to have the same password for Apps and Applsys is because when you sign on to apps, initially it connects to a public schema called APPLSYSPUB. This validates the AOL username and password that we enter (operations/welcome using a guest user account. Once this is verified we select responsibility, this is validated by APPLSYS schema and then it connects to APPS schema.

How to change Apps Password in R12.2

 

Apps password change routine in Release 12.2 E-Business Suite changed a little bit. We have now extra options to change password, as well as some manual steps after changing the password using FNDCPASS.

Whether you use FNDCPASS or AFPASSWD to change the APPLSYS/APPS password, you must also perform some additional steps. This is because in R12.2, the old AOL/J connection pooling is replaced with Weblogic Connection Pool ( JDBC Data source ).  Currently this procedure is not yet automated. It would be good, if this can be automated using some WLS scripting.

Important: These steps must be carried out on the run file system.

  1. Shut down the application tier services using the $INST_TOP/admin/scripts/adstpall.sh script.
  1. Change the APPLSYS password, as described for the utility you are using.
  1. Start Admin Server using the $INST_TOP/admin/scripts/adadminsrvctl.sh script. Do not start any other application tier services.
  1. Change the “apps” password in WLS Data source as follows:
    •  Log in to WLS Administration Console.
    • Click Lock & Edit in Change Center.
    • In the Domain Structure tree, expand Services, then select Data Sources.
    • On the “Summary of JDBC Data Sources” page, select EBSDataSource.
    • On the “Settings for EBSDataSource” page, select the Connection Pool tab.
    • Enter the new password in the “Password” field.
    • Enter the new password in the “Confirm Password” field.
    • Click Save.
    • Click Activate Changes in Change Center.
  1. Start all the application tier services using the $INST_TOP/admin/scripts/adstrtal.sh script.
  1. Verify the WLS Datastore changes as follows:
  2. Log in to WLS Administration Console.
  3. In the Domain Structure tree, expand Services, then select Data Sources.
  4. On the “Summary of JDBC Data Sources” page, select EBSDataSource.
  5. On the “Settings for EBSDataSource” page, select Monitoring > Testing.
  6. Select “oacore_server1“.
  7. Click Test Data Source
  8. Look for the message “Test of EBSDataSource on server oacore_server1 was successful“.

Important: Steps 4, 5 and 6 are only applicable when changing the APPLSYS password. They are not applicable when changing passwords for product schemas or the SYSTEM schema.

In the next prepare phase after the password change, adop will invoke EBS Domain Configuration to ensure that the WLS data source on the patch file system will be synchronized with the new APPS password.

How to change priority of concurrent request

 

Change the priority of the concurrent request

By changing priority of concurrent request you can run the important concurrent request before non-priority concurrent request.

  1. Open “System Administrator” responsibility. Go to Concurrent > Requests
  2. Select “Specific Requests“. In the field called “Requester” put the User ID for whom you want to change priority.
  3. Select “View Details“. Change the Priority from default “50“. Change it to “10” for high priority. [1 for highest and 99 for lowest].

Change the User priority

You can set the priority of individual user priority. For high priority user [CFO or CEO :-)] the report will get completed the request will soon start to run than a normal priority user. Change the value of profile option “Concurrent:Request Priority” in User level to make him or her a high or low priority user.

Alternatively you can change the priority of a “Concurrent Request” in define concurrent request screen.

You can do the following two steps to increase the performance of concurrent manager.

  1. Schedule the following concurrent request program “Purge Concurrent Requests and / or Manager Data“.

  2. Concurrent manager performance can also be enhanced by increasing the manager cache size to be at lease twice the number of target processes.

How to Change Concurrent Manager log and output file

 

By default in R12, the Logs and Output are located in $APPLCSF/$APPLLOG and  $APPLCSF/$APPLOUT.

Change the value of APPLCSF, APPLLOG and APPLOUT  in the context file to your desired location in context file. Make sure the path you have mentioned is accessible from every application node.

Run autoconfig and bounce the concurrent managers for the changes to be implemented.

After this test whether log is getting generated in desired location or not by submitting some sample request.
