ADADMIN is a common tool used by mongodba to maintain OracleApps file systems and databases. (The ADADMIN execution file is located under $ AD_TOPbin.

ADADMIN is a common tool used by Apps DBAs to maintain the Oracle Apps file system and database. (The ADADMIN execution file is located under $ AD_TOP/bin.

ADADMIN usage

ADADMIN is used to maintain the Oracle Apps file system and database. It is a common tool for Apps DBAs.

(The ADADMIN execution file is located under $ AD_TOP/bin)

Usage

[Oracle @ ~] $Adadmin

If the ADADMIN command cannot be run, it is likely that the environment variable is not set. You can run ". $ APPL_TOP/instance. env" to set the environment variable. During adadmin execution, the password of the database system user and the password of the apps user are required.

Menu items of ADADMIN

ADADMIN has five level-1 menus, each of which has detailed functional items.

Level 1 menu

AD Administration Main Menu

1. Generate Applications Files menu
2. Maintain Applications Files menu
3. Compile/Reload Applications Database Entities menu
4. Maintain Applications Database Entities menu
5. Change Maintenance Mode
6. Exit AD Administration

Detailed function items under each level-1 menu

Generate Applications Files

If the system user cannot access Message, Form, or Report, you can try to solve the problem by using the menu under "Generate Applications Files.

1. Generate message files

This task generates message binary files in the $ PROD_TOP/mesg directory from oracle application object library tables. We generally perform this task only when implements ucted to do so in a readme file of a patch.

2. Generate form files

Set $ AU_TOP/forms/ /Fmb file generation _ TOP/forms/ Fmx File

3. Generate report files

Generate a report file (. rdf) based on the Installation Language)

4. Generate graphics files

This task generates Oracle graphics files for all installed programming ages. extension of the file name like (*. ogd), The serious of prompts and actions in this task are very similar to the prompts and actions in the Generate form files task.

5. Generate product JAR files

GenerateJava archive (JAR) files whenever you upgrade the Developer technology stack orwhen recommended by Oracle Support Services. It signs JAR files (if on the Webserver) and does the following:

■ Generates product JAR files in JAVA_TOP and copies them to APPL_TOP.

■ Generates other Java-related files under APPL_TOP and JAVA_TOP.

■ Recreates Java libraries (export borg.zip and export borg2.zip) under APPL_TOP andJAVA_TOP.

6. Return to Main Menu

Maintain Applications Files

"Maintain Applications Files" is mainly used to keep your system Files up to date. For example, you need to copy a file from a specific location or convert the character set of the file.

1. Relink Applications programs

Relinks Oracle Applications executable programs with the Oracle server libraries so that they function with the Oracle database. For each product, choose whether to link all executables or only specific ones.

Note: The default is to relink without debug information. Use the debug option only when requested to do so by Oracle Support Services.

2. Create Applications environment file

3. Copy files to destinations

Copies files from each product area to central locations where they can be easily referenced by non-Applications programs. this option uses revision-based copy logic to ensure that the destination file versions are the same as, or higher than, the source file versions.

Note: Were commend that you do not use the force option to overwrite existing files unless than ucted by Oracle Support Services. copying files with this option updates all JAR files. JInitiator then downloads required JAR files to each client again, causing runtime performance degradation.

The file types and their respective destinations are shown in the following table:

These files: copied to (UNIX)

Java files $ JAVA_TOP

HTML files $ OAH_TOP

Media files $ OAM_TOP

Note: When this option is used to copy reports or graphics files, the default destinationis under AU_TOP.

4. Convert character set

Preparesthe files in the APPL_TOP for conversion to another character set, and then performs the conversion.
