Configuring the profiles and network deployment environment using multiple tools

You can use multiple tools to configure the profiles and the network deployment environment. You can use the manageprofiles command-line utility or the Profile Management Tool to create or augment the network deployment profiles, and the Deployment Environment wizard to create the network deployment environment. If you want to create the deployment manager and managed-node profiles separately from creating the deployment environment, you can use the BPMConfig command.
  • Creating or augmenting network deployment profiles
    You must create or augment a deployment manager profile and one or more custom profiles before creating the deployment environment. Using profiles, you can have more than one runtime environment on a system, without having to install multiple copies of IBM® Business Process Manager.
  • Configuring XA transactions
    You must configure XA transactions after the Oracle database is installed and before you start the server.
  • Creating users for Oracle databases
    You can create the users for Oracle databases either before or after you create the profiles and the deployment environment. Create the cell-scoped user, the deployment environment-level user, the Process Server user, and the Performance Data Warehouse user. The Process Server user and the Performance Data Warehouse user are not needed for an Advanced-only deployment environment.
  • Configuring a network deployment environment using the Deployment Environment wizard
    After performing a Custom installation and creating the deployment manager and custom (managed node) profiles, you can create a network deployment configuration based on the topology pattern templates packaged with the software.
  • Running the generated Oracle database scripts
    If you run the BPMConfig command with the property bpm.de.deferSchemaCreation set to true, or if you used the Deployment Environment wizard and cleared the Create Tables option, you must run the generated database scripts manually to create the database tables.
