Creating and Configuring an OC4J Instance

In this topic, you create and configure an OC4J instance by using Oracle Enterprise Manager.

Note: To prevent all deployed applications from inheriting unwanted JVM runtime settings, you must create and use a new OC4J instance. Deploying more than one web application to the same OC4J instance may yield unsuccessful results.

Back to Topic List

Creating an OC4J Instance

1.	Connect to Oracle Enterprise Manager Application Server Control (for example, http://<servername>:19000/em)
2.	Click the name of the application server.
3.	Click Create OC4J Instance.
4.	In the OC4J instance name field, enter SharedServices.
5.	Select Add to a new group with name, and in the New Group Name field, enter SharedServices. Note: OC4J group administrative settings such as environment variables are shared by all group members. The OC4J instance you create for the Web application being deployed should be assigned to a group created specifically for that application. (When an application is deployed to more than one OC4J instance, those instances can be assigned to the same group.) For example, when deploying Shared Services and Workspace, the OC4J instance created for Shared Services should be assigned to a different group than the instance created for Workspace. Refer to the Oracle Process Manager and Notification Server Administrator's Guide for more information about groups.
6.	Select Start this OC4J instance after creation and click Create.
	The OC4J instance is created and added to the SharedServices group.
7.	Click Logout to close Oracle Enterprise Manager 10g Application Server Control.

10.	Under Start-parameters: Java Options, click Add Another Row and append the following Java options: -Dhyperion.home=C:\hyperion -XX:PermSize=64m -XX:MaxPermSize=128m
11.	Click Apply.
12.	Click Cluster Topology.
13.	Select the checkbox for SharedServices and click Restart.
14.	Click Yes to confirm that you want to restart the instance.
	The OC4J instance is restarted.
