Creating a Process Execution Engine

Using Process Administrator, you can create a new Process Execution Engine.

Before creating a new Process Execution Engine, ensure that your engine database server is configured and running. When creating a new engine, Process Administrator connects to the database and creates the required database tables.

  1. Launch Process Administrator
  2. Click Engines.
  3. Click Add.
  4. Enter the following information for your new engine:
    Option Description
    Engine Name Defines the name of the engine
    Engine Type Specifies the type of engine. Valid values are:
    • Enterprise
    • J2EE
    Note: When using the Oracle BPM Standalone, you can only create an engine of type Enterprise. When using the J2EE version, you can create either type.
    Engine Database Type Specifies the database driver the engine uses.
  5. Click Next.
  6. Select the database driver for you engine database vendor.
  7. Enter the connectivity information for your engine database. See Engine and Directory Database Connectivity for information on supported database types.
  8. Click Next. The Engine Configuration page appears. From this page you can edit additional engine properties before you create the engine. See Engines for information on additional engine properties.
  9. Click Save to create the Process Execution Engine.
