6.5.1 Additional Configuration Tasks for Oracle BI Scheduler

If you use server-side scripts with Oracle BI Scheduler, it is recommended that you configure a shared directory for the scripts so that they can be shared by all Oracle BI Scheduler components in a cluster. Perform these steps only if you are using server-side scripts. To share Oracle BI Scheduler scripts: 1. Copy the default Oracle BI Scheduler scripts for example, ORACLE_ INSTANCEbifoundationOracleBISchedulerComponentcoreapplication_ obisch1scriptscommon and custom Oracle BI Scheduler scripts for example, ORACLE_ INSTANCEbifoundationOracleBISchedulerComponentcoreapplication_ obisch1scriptsscheduler to the shared BI Scheduler scripts location. 2. Update the SchedulerScriptPath and DefaultScriptPath elements of the Oracle BI Scheduler instanceconfig.xml file, as follows: ■ SchedulerScriptPath: Refers to the path where Oracle BI Scheduler-created job scripts are stored. Change this to the path of the shared BI Scheduler scripts location. ■ DefaultScriptPath: Specifies the path where user-created job scripts not agents are stored. Change this to the path of the shared BI Scheduler scripts location. In a Windows environment, you must specify a UNC path name. 3. Restart the Oracle BI Scheduler component, as follows: opmnctl stopproc ias-component=coreapplication_obisch1 opmnctl startproc ias-component=coreapplication_obisch1 6-8 Oracle Fusion Middleware Enterprise Deployment Guide for Oracle Business Intelligence The instanceconfig.xml file for Oracle BI Scheduler is located in ORACLE_ INSTANCEconfigOracleBISchedulerComponentcoreapplication_obischn.
