Oracle Fusion Middleware 11g – Repository Creation Utility (RCU)

fusion rcu

This post covers overview of Repository Creation Utility(RCU) which is first thing you need to do, if you are planning to implement/install Oracle Fusion Middleware 11g R1 (11.1.1.0).

Metadata Repository – contains metadata for Fusion Middleware Components (SOA, Webcenter, Identity Management) . There are various types of Repository – Metadata Services (MDS), Audit Services (IAU), Oracle Internet Directory (OID), Single Sign-On (SSO), SOA Infrastructure (SOAINFRA), Business Activity Monitoring (BAM) , User Messaging (ORASDPM) , Oracle WebCenter (WEBCENTER) , WebCenter Portlets (PORTLETS) , Oracle Content Server (OCSERVER) , Portal (PORTAL), Discoverer (DISCOVERER), Oracle Identity Federation (OIF) , Discussions (DISCUSSIONS) and Wiki and Blog (WIKI)

Repository could be Database-based or File-based, most component (Webcenter, SOA, OID…) requires Database-based Repository.
.

How to create Database-based repository ?
RCU
– Repository Creation Utility is tool to create schema and load repository in existing database for Fusion Middleware components.

Download RCU from here

.

Key points for Repository Creation Utility (RCU) in FMW

1. RCU can be run in two mode – GUI (Graphical User Interface) & CLI (Command Line Interface)

2.
For Fusion Middleware 11g R1 (11.1.1.X) , RCU can only load schema in Oracle Database (version 10.2.0.4 and higher or 11.1.0.7 and higher)

3.
You can run RCU locally (same machine where Database is running) or Remotely (Database is on remote machine)

4.
By default RCU creates default schema and load repository in default tablespaces. RCU provides flexibility to change schema or tablespace name. (Only exception to this is Oracle Internet Directory (OID) schema)

5. You could load multiple repository (like Portal, webcenter, SOAINFRA) in single database. You could also load different version of same repository (like dev_soainfra, test_soainfra for DEV & Test instance resp.) in same database. (This is interesting feature for using single database for multiple Fusion Middleware Instances)

6. You can start RCU (Repository Creation Utility) from $RCU_SOFTWARE/bin/ rcu (for Unix) or rcu.bat (for Windows) ; This will start RCU in GUI mode. For CLI mode use “rcu [-silent | -interactive] {<command> <options>}

7. RCU log file is written to the RCU_SOFTWARE_DIR/ rcu/ log/ logdir.<date_timestamp>/ rcu.log

.

What to do after creating Fusion Middleware Database-based Repository ?
Before you can use Repository for fusion middleware component (soa, webcenter), you need to register Repository with Oracle WebLogic Server domain . (How to register Database-based with WebLogic domain ? coming soon…)

our SOA repository database is always getting full, we dont know how to solve this issue and we dont even testing the production yet. i was try to find it, i found how to reduce it in 10g version of SOA Suite. which is BPEL Performance tuning, we can reduce the growth repository during execution time with some change in bpel.xml (completionPersistPolicy ) i’m sure that i cant find the bpel.xml in SOA Suite 11g. our repository is always full, and if it full, the composite execution will be failed.. may you guys can help me with it?

PS: For testing we use real data in production which triggered into our dummy staging database

thanks

@ Ayesha, Why don;t you use 11.1.3.0 ? You can use 11.1.1.3.0 RCU with 11.1.1.1.0 and 11.1.1.2.0 products as well.

In OEL5.3- I installed oracle 11.1.6.0 patched to 11.1.7.0 .While creating RCU I am getting this
——–
Error : Unable to connect to the database using the provided details. Please enter a valid hostname and port or check if the listener is up and running.

I was assuming RCU does not recognize localhost.localdomain

In etc/hosts :127.1.1.0 localhost.localdomain

I added 174.10.10.10 xyz.com xyz
Also I changed in etc/sysconfig/network
It’s not working

Couldn’t find much in google. Am I missing any post installation steps after installing oracle 11g db.

I gave the port no :1521 and SID:orcl
DB is up and running

Can any one provide me a solution

@ Purushotham,
Either password you are using to connect to database for schemas dev_soainfra, dev_mds …. is not correct or schema itself is not available.

Connect as sys or system or sqlplus “/as sysdba”

and then check if you have schemas related top soa in database

SQL>select username from dba_users where username like ‘DEV%’;

If schemas are in place and you don’t remembre password then reset them using

SQL> alter user [username] identified by [new_password];

What are the minimum list of RCU components that needs to be selected for a Portal install?

Reply
Atul Kumar says September 22, 2010

@ Nate,

For Portal 11g, you need portal and portlet schema

Portal 11g requires OID (10g or 11g) & OSSO (10g) – If you are planning to use OID 11g then include ODS schema too (ODS schema you can install during OID 11g installation as well)

Hi Atul,

I want to install the schema for ODI and I have installed the 11.2 standard Oracle database software only, without any sample database. Can you tell me what my next step should be?

I am absolutely an novice in terms of knowledge about Oracle and I would like to learn ODI. I have been working on other integration technologies.

I need some guidance regarding the install. I have downloaded 11.2.0.1 database and have got the RCU tool and also the ODI download.

Initially, I installed Oracle database software only(Win 2003 server). I have not created the standard sample database.

As per the installation instruction we need to create the repository first, before doing ODI. When doing so I get a screen that is asking for database hostname, etc. etc.

My question is: Do I need to create a database using the Oracle database config assistant first? If yes, should it be a “General Purpose or Transaction Processing” database or should it be a “Custom database”.

If the answer to the above is ‘no’, then what should be the parameters for ODI?

Apart from this, if you know some link, where I can find documentation that goes through the process of installation from start to end and can send me the link or something, I would be very grateful.

Atul Kumar says December 27, 2010

@ Manish, Yes you will have to create a database which you can create using DBCA (Database Configuration Assistant) .

Select Transaction Processing .

Create listener as well using net configuration assistance (netca).

Once you have database and listener then use those details in like hostname , port in RCU screen.

Hi,
While installing on linux it get the following error
RCU-6093:Skipping Main operation: Failed in SchemaTablespace step validation
RCU-6131:Error while trying to connect to database.
It worked earlier. Was trying to drop and recreate and its not happening. login as SYS always gives invalid username/password

Reply
Atul Kumar says February 12, 2011

@ Padma,

Q: login as SYS always gives invalid username/password

A: This could be because of two reasons

1. You are not using correct password (check if sys password is correct )

On DB server login to user owning database , usualy oracle and run this command

sqlplus sys/sys_password as sysdba

If you get password error then password is wrong and then reset password as

sqlplus “/as sysdba”
SQL> alter user sys identified by new_password

2. If sys password is correct then sys user need password file on database server and access to connect remotely

Hi Atul,

I am facing several errors like ” ctxapp” role doesnot exist etc., while creating a repository for ECM using RCU on a database which was created manually with the create database script.

I’ve run catalog.sql, catproc.sql after the database got created. Please let me know if I am missing any script to be run before running RCU to get ctx related objects.

Reply
Atul Kumar says April 17, 2011

@ ranganathnangineni,
Which database you are using as ECM repository ?

If this is Oracle Database then any reason for running manual sql’s and not using RCU directly ?

Reply
ranganathnangineni says April 18, 2011

Atul,

This is an Oracle RAC database. We have created this database using create database command, we didnt use DBCA.

While running RCU to create a repository , it is throwing errors related to ctxapp role, ctxsys objects. Then I suspected , the catalog.sql, catproc.sql didnt create any objects related to ctx.

Could you please guide me?

Reply
Atul Kumar says April 18, 2011

@ ranganathnangineni,
For Oracle Databae, RCU expects CTX (Orcale Text). Make sure that you install ctx during database creation or later but before RCU.

– cd $ORACLE_HOME/ctx/admin/
– Install: sqlplus “/ as sysdba” @catctx CTXSYS CTXSYS TEMP NOLOCK

Hi Atul ,

We have created a Fusion Middleware environment for DIsocverer . everything went on fine . it ran for two weeks . suddenly our database got correpted and our DBA team dropped the Database. In this database we have created the Repositiry using RCU . now when we are going to the discoverer login page it is givng the errror as it is pointing and searching for the lost databse. we have created a new database and created a new repository . we dont want to uninstall and reinstall again from scratch but just want to map the new repository instead of the new one . is there any chance to do this approach ?

Please let me know . we appreaciate your thoughts on this . its a kind of urgent

Hi…I need some questions regarding the RCU installation. I’m installing FMW 11gR1(Portal, forms, reports and discoverer) and one of the required software was RCU.

Hi Atul,

I want to carry out regular (monthly) cleanup of the RCU schemas like (DEV_MDS, DEV_SOAINFRA, DEV_ORABAM, DEV_IAS_ORASDPM) Over time, the tablespace seems to increase in size which is a concern. I tried the purge script for cleaning the composite instances, which does reclaim some space back. Example in DEV_SOAINFRA schema,inspite of purging there lots of records in tables like MEDIATOR_AUDIT_DOCUMENT, SYS_LOB0000076386C00004$$, MEDIATOR_CASE_DETAIL, MEDIATOR_PAYLOAD etc. How do one carry out a monthly cleanup of the SOA repository schemas, so it does not keep growing in size?

    You should use “alter system setprocesses=300 scope=spfile;”

    To run this command you should login using “sys as sysdba” or a user that has sysdba privileges in database. Ask your DBA to run above SQL and he should know how to run this

MUHAMMAD Junaid says October 8, 2012

sys/hr

Set ORACLE_HOME and ORACLE_SID as per your oracle database and then

cd $ORACLE_HOME/bin

./sqlplus “/as sysdba”

Hi,
I’m new to Discoverer and recently I install the Oracle FMW 11.1.1.6 with Oracle Forms, Reports and Discoverer successfully. I can able to access the Discoverer Plus and viewer thorugh URl successfully.
But when I create the connection though the Oracle Discoverer Plus it’s give me the error “You do not have access to any End User Layer tables”.
I didn’t create any EUL tables just created a DEV_DISCOVERER schema while running the Repository Creation Utility against 11g R2 database.
I don’t how to create the End User Layer tables and also I can find the Oracel Discoverer Adminstrator.

These are the two URl I found after the installation:

Discoverer Viewer URL: http://localhost:8888/discoverer/viewer

Discoverer Plus URL: http://localhost:8888/discoverer/plus

Do I need to seprate install the Oracel Discoverer Adminstartor 11g to create the EUL?

Thanks in Advance

Hi Atul,

I installed SOA 12c 12.1.1.0.0 version in my local machine with soa 12c rcu.
Later i installed webcenter sites, same version 12c 12.1.1.0.0 in the same machine rcu with different prefix ex:DEV1 and it successfully created schemas and created weblogic domain with existing weblogic server.
Now i want to install webcenter portal, on same machine. I came to know for portal no need to create rcu schemas, only 2 patches to be configured at jdeveloper and deployment will do it in weblogic server.
I am bit confusion with out webcenter portal rcu schemas, how it will work, simply by adding 2 patches.
If so please explain me, how webcenter installation works or is there any complete webcenter full stack installation at one place where I can get all other components.

I have been reviewing online more than ten hours today for
best painters calgary & Oracle Fusion Middleware 11g
– Repository Creation Utility (RCU), yet I never found any interesting article like yours.
It is pretty worth enough for me. In my view, if all website owners and
bloggers made good content as you did, the net will be much more
useful than ever before.
