In today’s post I will discuss on steps you should do\/need for Oracle Apps R12 installation. Most of these steps are written w.r.t. to Installation on Linux but I’ll try to mention any additional software required for Windows or any other platform.<\/p>\n

Where to download Apps R12 Software ?
\n<\/strong>First thing you need is Oracle Apps R12 which is available at eDelivery<\/span> (Click here to go to eDelivery<\/span>) <\/a>or you can order software DVD’s<\/span> via Metalink<\/span>. You don’t need to download all CD’s<\/span> .<\/p>\n

You might have to register initially with Name, Company & email address & try again after 1-2 days (You might not get confirmation, just try after a day)
\nSelect product as E-Business Suite & your platform , For Linux you have to select Part Number B35903-01 (There are total 72 CD’s<\/span> {you don’t need all 72 CD’s<\/span><\/span>} with total size as 35GB {this is just software size & not actual installation<\/span>})<\/p>\n

In actual you have to download following 64 CD’s<\/span> rest others are for NLS<\/span>, 10g AS & BI CD’s<\/span><\/p>\n

\nOracle Applications Release 12.0 for Linux x86 Rapid Install APPL<\/span>_TOP – Disk 1 (6 CD’s<\/span>) Oracle Applications Release 12.0 for Linux x86 Rapid Install APPL<\/span>_TOP – Disk 2 (1 CD)<\/p>\n

Oracle Apps R12 Installation Document <\/strong>
\nNext thing you need is Oracle Apps R12 Installation Guide which is available at http:\/\/download-uk.oracle.com\/docs\/cd\/B34956_01\/current\/acrobat\/120oaig.pdf<\/a><\/p>\n

What should I do if I don’t have Linux Operating system as well ?
\nIf you don’t have Linux O.S. you can install it on any other operating system (CD’s<\/span> mentioned above are for linux<\/span> download according to your O.S. ). If you are curious to install it on Linux you can download linux<\/span> from http:\/\/edelivery.oracle.com\/linux<\/a><\/p>\n

Do I need to Install any other software before Oracle Apps R12 Installation ?<\/strong>
\nOn Unix\/Linux you don’t need to install any other software (You should have all required o.s. packages as mentioned in above installation<\/span> guide) but as you don’t need<\/strong> to install JDK<\/span> prior to Apps R12 install (with 11i you have to install JDK<\/span> prior to installing Apps)
\nFor windows you still need other software like mks toolkit (cygwin<\/span> my recommendation for test server), VC<\/span>++<\/p>\n

User & Mount point\/File system<\/span> <\/strong>
\nI will recommend two user install (one for database tier & another for middle tier also called as application tier) Though you can install both database tier & application tier under same operating system user. For Vision Instance you need around 161 GB (133GB for database & 28 GB for application tier) space . For instance without dummy data you need 73 GB space (45GB DB & 28GB application tier)<\/p>\n

CPU & RAM <\/strong>
\nFor testing Installation you can try as low as single CPU (1.6 GHz) and 1GB RAM (This was spec of my laptop where I installed for testing purpose, You can try with low configuration as well<\/span>)<\/p>\n

Staging Area <\/strong>
\n<\/a>
\nIts good idea to create staging area using script adautostg<\/span>.pl available in Start Here CD. Refer to Page 30 of above Installation Guide. Advantage with staging area is that after start CD you don’t have<\/span> to manually insert CD’s<\/span> and Installer will automatically pick next CD from staging Area. You can pass on configuration<\/span> setting on first 3-4 screens & once installer starts you can sleep & next day morning you can see complete installation<\/span>. In case of any failure or subsequent installations (If you have to install more than one Instance its always better to install using Staging Area)<\/p>\n
