11 Upgrading Oracle Business Activity Monitoring Applications 11-1 11 Upgrading Oracle Business Activity Monitoring Applications This chapter provides important supplementary information upgrading Oracle SOA applications to Oracle Fusion Middleware 11g. Use Chapter 8, Overview of Upgrading Oracle SOA Suite, WebCenter, and ADF Applications for the tasks required to upgrade any Oracle SOA Suite, WebCenter, and ADF application. Refer to the following sections for information on upgrade tasks associated with Oracle Business Activity Monitoring: ■ Migrating Oracle BAM Users, Groups, and Other LDAP Information to 11g ■ Verifying Oracle BAM Action Form Templates After Upgrade ■ Upgrading Oracle BAM External Data Sources ■ Upgrading Images in Oracle BAM Reports ■ Using Oracle BAM Web Services in 11g ■ Upgrading Oracle BAM Sensor Actions ■ Upgrading Enterprise Link Plans to Oracle BAM 11g ■ Additional Considerations When Upgrading to Oracle BAM 11g

11.1 Migrating Oracle BAM Users, Groups, and Other LDAP Information to 11g

In general, after upgrade of the Oracle BAM schema, any Oracle BAM 10g users will appear in the Oracle BAM Administrator as inactive if they dont exist in the Oracle Fusion Middleware 11g security provider. However, you can use Oracle BAM Administrator software to remap 10g users to new Oracle BAM 11g users. For more information, see Managing Oracle BAM Object Ownership, in Oracle Fusion Middleware Administrators Guide for Oracle SOA Suite and Oracle Business Process Management Suite. After upgrade, you might need to address the following for users and groups: ■ Reset any Shared Folder permissions ■ Reset any Data Object and Data Object folder permissions ■ Reset any Distribution Lists ■ Reset Security Filters 11-2 Oracle Fusion Middleware Upgrade Guide for Oracle SOA Suite, WebCenter, and ADF ■ Reset Alerts actions to users and groups Further, if your Oracle BAM 10g environment takes advantage of an LDAP directory server to store your Oracle BAM user names or other Oracle BAM information, then you should make sure that the LDAP directory you were using in Oracle Application Server 10g is associated with your new Oracle Fusion Middleware 11g environment. For more information, see Section 6.7.1, Configuring Oracle SOA Suite 11g to Use Identity Management Components .

11.2 Verifying Oracle BAM Action Form Templates After Upgrade

After you upgrade from Oracle BAM 10g to Oracle Fusion Middleware 11g, some of the Action Form templates you created in Oracle BAM 10g may not function correctly. As a result, after you perform the upgrade, you should review the templates and verify that they are functioning correctly. Specifically, use the following instructions to search for typical issues that might need to be corrected after the upgrade to Oracle Fusion Middleware 11g: 1. Open the Oracle BAM Start Page. 2. Start Oracle BAM Architect.

3. Select Data Objects from the menu.

4. Expand the System folder and open the Views folder.

5. Select the Action Form Templates data object and click Contents.

6. Click Edit Contents.

7. Click Edit next to the first row.

8. Copy the contents of the FormInput column to a text editor and remove any white

space following an element. in other words replace with . 9. Search for the mixed case ReportServer and change to lower case reportserver to fix the links to the style sheets.

10. Copy and paste the updated text back into the FormInput column.

11. Repeat these steps for each entry in the FormInput column that contains data.

11.3 Upgrading Oracle BAM External Data Sources

External data sources defined in your Oracle BAM 10g environment are not upgraded to Oracle BAM 11g. As a result, if you use external data sources in your Oracle BAM 10g environment, you must manually recreate those data sources in Oracle BAM 11g. This is because Oracle Fusion Middleware 11g supports a new set of database drivers, which are used to connect to an external database.
