Oracle BPM Configuration Wizard Overview

The Oracle BPM Configuration Wizard provides a convenient way of configuring Oracle BPM Enterprise.

You can use the Configuration Wizard to create either a Standalone or WebLogic Server environment. The following sections describe the tasks that can be performed.

Create the Directory and Engine Databases

You can use the Configuration Wizard to create a new Directory and Engine Database. In order to create these databases, you must supply the DBA username and password for your database. If you do not have permission to access your database server, you can use the Configuration Wizard to generate the required SQL scripts. Your database administrator can use these scripts to create the required databases.

When configuring the directory database, you can select whether to create a database-only or hybrid directory service. The hybrid directory service allows you to use an LDAP server to provide organizational information.

Note: When configuring a hybrid directory service, you must install and configure your LDAP server before running the Configuration Wizard.

Publish and Deploy a Sample Project

The Configuration Wizard can create and deploy a sample project. You can use this sample project to verify that your Oracle BPM Enterprise installation is configured correctly.

When you choose to perform this option, the Configuration Wizard creates a new process execution engine and creates external resources that point to the engine and directory databases.

Configure the Oracle WebLogic Server Environment

You can use the Configuration Wizard to create and configure a basic Oracle BPM installation on WebLogic Server. You can use the Configuration Wizard to quickly create a test environment.

However, the Configuration Wizard cannot be used to create clustered or multi-domain environments. For production environments, you should use the manual configuration procedures outlined in theOracle BPM Configuration Guide.

When using the Oracle BPM Configuration Wizard, you can select to perform the following:
  • Create a new WebLogic Server domain or install into an existing WebLogic Server domain.
  • Deploy the Oracle BPM applications to a managed server.
The configuration wizard creates all of the necessary JDBC and JMS resources.
