Virtual Machine Configuration 1. Oracle VM Templates: list and description ============================================ The Oracle Business Intelligence Enterprise Edition (OBIEE) Oracle VM (OVM) Template consists of the complete OBIEE stack including the BI Analytics Server, BI Presentation Services (Saw server and Java Host), BI Scheduler Server with Oracle Container for Java (OC4J) as the J2EE server on which the BI servlet application runs. Along with the BIEE platform, this VM template includes a 10gR2 EE Oracle database that is used as a transactional store and can be used by BI Answers for making direct database queries. This database is also used for storing scheduled jobs created using the BI Scheduler server. There are several sample queries, reports, iBots (Alerts), scheduled jobs that have been pre-created in this template. After creating a VM using this template, these could be used as a starting point to build more complex analytic reports.

Click Next. The Confirm Information screen is displayed. 8) Click Confirm. The Virtual Machine Template screen is displayed with a message to confirm the template is imported. 9) To make the Oracle VM template available for use, select the virtual machine template and click Approve. The View Virtual Machine Template screen is displayed. Click Approve. The Oracle VM template is imported and now ready for use in Oracle VM Manager. 3. Creation of Guest from "BI EE Template" ========================================== After the VM template has been downloaded and imported into the OVM Manager, the next step is to create a VM guest using this template. 3.1 Create virtual machine using Oracle VM manager -------------------------------------------------Following are the steps: 1) Log in to Oracle VM Manager (OVMM) and navigate to the Virtual Machines tab. Click Create Virtual Machine. The Creation Method screen is displayed. 2) Select Create virtual machine based on the virtual machine template. Click Next. The Shared Pool screen is displayed. 3) Select the Server Pool on which to create the virtual machine. Select an option from the Preferred Server dropdown. Click Next. The Source screen is displayed. 4) Select the template you imported in Step 1, and click Next. The Virtual Machine Information screen is displayed. 5) Enter the virtual machine name in the "Virtual Machine Name" field. Enter the console password in the "Console Password" field. Confirm the console password by entering it again in the "Confirm Console Password" field. Select the network Interface Card (or, choose the default i.e. VIF0). Click Next. The Confirm Information screen is displayed (for eg, set VNC password to "welcome1") 6) Confirm the virtual machine information, and click Confirm.

Server command line, enter 1) Log in to Oracle VM Server as root, follow the step 1) - step 2) in section "2.1 Importing from an Oracle VM Server" to download and uncompress the template files 2) Change directory to where the virtual machine files are located # cd /OVS/seed_pool/OVM_EL4U5_X86_PVM_10gR3BIEE 3) Run the following python command to generate a new MAC address # PYTHONPATH=/opt/ovs-agent-2.2 python -c \ "from OVSCommons import randomMAC; print randomMAC()" 4) Edit the vm.cfg file and change the line starting with 'vif' to vif = [ 'mac=00:16:3E:xx:xx:xx', ] where 00:16:3E:xx:xx:xx is the MAC address generated in the previous step. 5) Create and boot the virtual machine from the Oracle VM Server command line. # xm create vm.cfg 6) Connect to the Oracle Database virtual machine's console via VNC a) find out the VNC port number by running the following on the Oracle VM Server: # xm list -l OVM_EL4U5_X86_PVM_10gR3BIEE | grep location This will display the port number assigned to this virtual machine's VNC console. There may be more than one line, but there should be a line that looks like this: (location 0.0.0.0:5901) Use this port number (5901 in this example) when connecting from the VNC Viewer. b) Connect to the virtual machine using any VNC Viewer from a desktop machine. For example, on Linux you can run: # vncviewer <ovm_server_host>:<virtual_machine_vnc_port> <virtual_machine_vnc_port> is the port number found out in step a) c) complete the configuration as described in section 4. NOTE: If you create the VM guest from the command line, you will always need to manage it from the command line, i.e. you can't use OVMM to manage this VM guest. 4. Virtual Machine Configuration ================================ Hostname - haovm006.<your-domain-name> This is a fixed hostname template; so at the first boot of the VM guest, you will need to enter haovm006.<your-domain-name> at the appropriate time during interview questionnaire. The "domain name" can be set to whatever is applicable in your network environment. Also, in order to access this fixed [domain-qualified] hostname of the VM guest from a client machine, there are multiple options available. For more details on configuring this template at first boot, please read the Usage document that is available with the download : OBIEE_OVM_Template_Usage_Doc.pdf
