Oracle Apps 11i Free Training: Single Node and Multi Node Installation Part 1. In this part 1 tutorial we will learn how to start with the Single Node and Multi Node Installation along with step by step instructions, screen shots and Frequently asked questions.

Single-node and multi node installation


In a single-node installation, the database, all product directories, all servers (concurrent processing, forms, and Web) are installed on a single node under one common APPL_TOP whereas in a multi-node installation, you install both application tier and database tier servers across two or more nodes.

The installation steps for single-node and multi-node installation are almost the same. In the 4th step, one needs to choose between the single-node and multi-node installations. Follow the steps as shown below to start your installation.


Step 1. Start the Rapid Install wizard

Start the wizard from the command line by typing rapidwiz at the prompt. The Welcome screen appears.



This screen lists the components that are included in, or supported by, this release of Oracle Applications. Use the scroll bar to bring all the components into view. This screen is for information only. No action is required. Click Next to continue.


Step 2. Select a wizard operation

Use the Select Wizard Operation screen to indicate the action you want Rapid Install to perform. You begin both new installations and upgrades from this screen. Based on the action you choose, the Rapid Install wizard continues with the appropriate screen flow. The available actions are as follows:



The available actions are as follows:


Install Oracle Applications E-Business 11i

This action sets up a new, fully configured system, with either a fresh database or a Vision Demo database. The configuration is derived from the system-specific configuration parameters you enter in the Rapid Install wizard and save in the configuration file (config.txt). This custom configuration reflects the way you will use your Oracle Applications products.

§ Express Configuration

This action sets up a fully configured, single-user/single-node system with either a fresh database or Vision Demo database. You supply a few basic parameters, such as database type and name, top-level install directory, and increments for port settings. The remaining directories and mount points are supplied by Rapid Install using default values.


Upgrade to Oracle Applications E-Business 11i

Choose this option to indicate that you are upgrading your E-Business Suite products to the current version of Oracle Applications. The wizard screen flow presents two paths: one that lays down the file system and installs the new technology stack, and one that configures servers and starts services.


In the following steps, you will set up a new installation. Click Install Oracle Applications E-Business 11i. Click Next to continue



Step 3. Identify configuration file

On the Load Configuration screen, you indicate whether you will be using an existing configuration file



If you answer No, Rapid Install saves the configuration parameters you enter on the wizard screens in a new configuration file (config.txt) that it will use to configure your system for the new installation. You indicate the location and the name of the new configuration file on a subsequent screen.

If you choose "Yes, load configuration file," the directory path field becomes active. Entering the file name and path points Rapid Install to a previously stored configuration and indicates that want to use those parameters. Typically, you choose this option when copying the configuration file to other nodes in a multi-node installation, or when restarting Rapid Install after an interruption in the installation processing.


Because this is a new installation, click No, and click Next to continue.

  Please include a section on system maintenance such as a list of temp and log files generated and how frequently they should be deleted.
