Using HP Serviceguard extension for Oracle E-Business Suite B.01.00, September 2010

2. The Apps Tier start and stop takes 1 to 2 minutes. It is expected

behavior.

3. When you bring down EBS, always make sure that the APPS Tier is

brought

down first.

4. If you bring down the DB Tier, when the APPS Tier is up and

running,

it will bring down APPS Tier first.

5. SGeEBS uses Oracle supplied scripts to start/stop and monitor the

APPS

Tier servers. If these scripts are not present in the corresponding

directories, SGeEBS cannot work properly.

7. Look for error messages in the Package log file. If it is an APPS

package shutdown failure , look for the following message:

EBS Application Serviceguard Script: Stop Failure

Currently executing Processes for user xxxxxx

L. EBS Licensing requirements

For Oracle E-Business Suite, only the processor(s) on which the target

database is running must be counted for the purpose of determining the

number of licenses required. Oracle's data recovery licensing policy

(http://www.oracle.com/corporate/pricing/data-recovery-licensing.pdf)

mentions that the databse can run on a Server temporarily for a period

shorter than 10 days in a year. This essentially means that if the DB

Tier fails over, it has to be failed back to the licensed server node

within a short period of time.
