Fifth Recommended Patch Collection for EBS 12.1.3 Now Available
We are pleased to announce the availability of the fifth consolidated
patch collection for Oracle E-Business Suite Release 12.1.3. This
patchset combines important patches for Release 12.1.3 into a
single integrated and regression-tested patchset:
What's Included in RPC5?
Related Articles
Reasons to Apply RPC5
Oracle E-Business Suite Release 12.1.3 has been available for a
while, and over its lifetime has been significantly enhanced in numerous
ways. These enhancements and fixes are provided as individual patches,
product family Release Update Packs (RUP), and product-specific
Recommended Patch Collections (RPC).
For example, there are
Recommended Patch Collections for Financials products such as General
Ledger and Payables. On the technology side, there are patchsets such as
the OA Framework 12.1.3.1 Consolidated Update Patch.
Identifying
and applying all the individual patches, RUPs, and RPCs you need can be
time-consuming. Complicating matters further, patchsets across multiple
product families are generally not tested together.
Patches included in Oracle E-Business Suite Release 12.1.3+ RPC5
are also available individually, and may contain conditions and
prerequisites relevant to their application. RPC5 includes all the
recommended patches, along with their dependencies. Applying this patch
in a single downtime patching window saves effort and time, rather than
applying each recommended patch individually.
What's Included in RPC5?
The EBS 12.1.3+ RPC4 patchset includes the latest recommended patches and their dependencies for the
following Oracle E-Business Suite products and product families:
- Applications Technology (ATG)
- Oracle Customer Relationship Management (CRM)
- Oracle Financials (FIN)
- Oracle Human Resource Management System (HRMS)
- Oracle Procurement (PRC)
- Oracle Projects (PJ)
- Oracle Supply Chain Management (SCM)
- Oracle Value Chain Planning (VCP)
- Oracle Business Intelligence (BIS)
Is it necessary to apply this RPC if I only use a subset of Oracle E-Business Suite products?
Applying
this RPC is recommended even if you are using only a subset of Oracle
E-Business Suite products. The patching utility 'adpatch' takes care of
the files to be applied and generates them based on the product
installation status.
Applying this RPC on top of already applied individual Family Packs
will not harm your system because the patching utility 'adpatch' skips
the files already applied on the system. You can apply the latest
available RPC on your system.
A patch I need isn't included in this RPC. Why not?
This
RPC combines recommended patches that were released after Release
12.1.3 into a single, integrated and regression-tested patch to help
ensure a successful installation. If you don't find the patch in the
RPC, it is likely that the patch was released after the patch list for
the specific RPC was frozen or the patch was not marked "recommended" at
the time the list was generated.
Should I only install the latest RPC? Do I have to install all
prior RPCs? Should I install later individual product family RPCs?
To
keep your system up-to-date with the most current Oracle E-Business
Suite recommended patches, you should only apply the latest available
RPC (which supersedes any prior release suitewide RPC) and thereafter
either install individual product-level recommended patches as required
or install the next suitewide level RPC when it becomes available.

SOA 12c QuickTip: Enable Servicebus message tracing in DefaultDomain by Sven Bernhardt
Messsage
or execution tracing in Servicebus (SB) allows insight into the message
exchange between Servicebus and it’s communication partners (Client
applications and Service providers) as well as the message processing
within a pipeline. Informations about incoming and outgoing messages,
the corresponding headers, the course of variable manipulations and
other things are written to the diagnostic logs and can be inspected
there, when the tracing is active. By default the message and execution
tracing are disabled, due to performance reasons and so it should only
be enabled in development environments for debugging purposes.
Enablement
of message tracing for proxy or business service or execution tracing
on the pipeline level, can be done using Fusion Middleware Control
(Enterprise Manager).Under a specific SB project, the corresponding
services and pipelines can be found. Enabling the tracing can be simply
done by checking the options for message tracing respectively execution
tracing in the Operations tab. Read the complete article here.

How to terminate an instance after transaction rollback and return response to caller by Rajeev Misra
We
have seen in several customer scenarios where a Parent BPEL process
calls a child BPEL process asynchronously. If child process runs into
any kind of business or system fault, fault handler sends callback to
parent process with failure information. Please note, since parent had
invoked child process asynchronously, child can't throw fault back to
parent. Callback is only mechanism to inform parent about the failure
in child process execution during asynchronous interaction. This
pattern works fine if transaction of child process is not getting rolled
back. If child process encounters some error where underlying JTA
transaction is marked for rollback, callback may not reach parent
process if parent and child are collocated. This is because, callback
invoke from child to parent will use the child's JTA transaction to
save callback in dehydration store, but since child's transaction is in
rollback state, callback message information would be rolled back from
dehydration store after JTA transaction rolls back.
Second issue is while trying to terminate an instance after it has encountered error which results into transaction rollback. Since terminate state update of instance in dehydration store will be rolled back with transaction, any attempt to execute terminate in fault handler will be futile.
We are recommending a pattern that could help resolve both of above problems. Please look at the flow: Read the complete article here.

EBS 12.2 DB Migration Using 12cR1 Transportable Tablespaces Now Certified
Database migration across platforms of different "endian" (byte ordering) formats using the Transportable Tablespaces (TTS) process is now certified for Oracle E-Business Suite Release 12.2 (12.2.3 or higher) with Oracle Database 12c Release 1 (12.1.0).
This certification requires that the source database be 11gR2 (11.2.0.4) or 12cR1 (12.1.0.2) and the target database be 12cR1 (12.1.0.2). This 12.2/12cR1 database migration process utilizes the 'full transportable export/import' feature of 12c to greatly speed up the migration while also offering the optional use of incremental backup.
This migration process requires a patch delivered by the EBS Platform Engineering team which is now generally available on MOS for use by EBS customers.
The "endian-ness" of platforms can be checked by querying the view V$TRANSPORTABLE_PLATFORM using sqlplus (connected as sysdba):

The "endian-ness" of platforms can be checked by querying the view V$TRANSPORTABLE_PLATFORM using sqlplus (connected as sysdba):
SQL> select platform_name, endian_format from v$transportable_platform;
Here's a list of relevant platforms certified for the EBS R12 with 12cR1 on the database tier:
Big Endian Little Endian Oracle Solaris on SPARC Linux x86-64 HP-UX Itanium Windows x64 IBM AIX on Power Systems Oracle Solaris on x86-64 IBM: Linux on System z
The use of Transportable Tablespaces may greatly speed up the migration of the data portion of the database - it does not affect metadata which must still be migrated using export/import. Smaller databases (less than 1TB) may see little gain from the use of Transportable Tablespaces, and other techniques like export/import will be simpler and likely faster.
For smaller databases, we highly recommend that users initially perform a test migration with export/import on their database with the 'metrics=y' parameter to find out the relative size of data vs metadata in their database and to have a basis to compare any gains in timing. Generally speaking, the larger the relative size of data (as compared to metadata), the more likely it would be that TTS is suitable as a migration process to reduce downtime.
Database migration between platforms of the same endian format should use the 'Transportable Database' process or Rapid Clone if migrating between the same platform.

Interface-Driven Java Formatter
Today at JCrete, Dan North and others suggested a really cool feature—the ability to format a Java source file based on the interfaces that the Java source file is implementing. The "Ordering" formatting options for Java source files in NetBeans IDE are quite detailed by default:
However, the new interface-driven formatting options, which I am implementing in a new tab (since the tab above is pretty full and can't be extended externally via a plugin anyway), enable the interfaces of the implementing class to determine the ordering of class members:
Here's Dan's notes on the above options:
Here's the code providing the GUI above, as well as the registration-related code for plugging the GUI into NetBeans IDE:
https://github.com/GeertjanWielenga/InterfaceDrivenJavaFormatter.git
Now "all" that needs to be done is implement the logic behind the above GUI. Anyone is welcome to join in with this cool JCrete-driven feature!
