Installing and Configuring the Oracle Registry Repository Exchange Utility

10-4 Oracle Fusion Middleware Configuration Guide for Oracle Enterprise Repository

10.2.1 Installing and Configuring the Oracle Registry Repository Exchange Utility

Before you can use the Oracle Registry Repository Exchange Utility to publish and receive Oracle Enterprise Repository metadata to and from Oracle Service Registry, you must complete the following configuration steps: ■ Section 10.2.1.1, Install the Oracle Registry Repository Exchange Utility ■ Section 10.2.1.2, Configure Using the Asset Type Name

10.2.1.1 Install the Oracle Registry Repository Exchange Utility

When Oracle Enterprise Repository is installed, by default, the Oracle Registry Repository Exchange Utility files are found at Oracle_HOME\repositoryXXX\core\tools\solutions The Oracle Registry Repository Exchange Utility files for Oracle Enterprise Repository 11g are as follows: ■ 11.1.1.x.x-RR-ExchangeUtility.zip : Contains the package for the Exchange Utility. You can unzip the 11.1.1.x.x-RR-ExchangeUtility.zip file into the directory on your file system where Oracle Enterprise Repository is installed, typically Oracle_ HOME\repositoryXXX. When the zip file containing the Oracle Registry Repository Exchange Utility is unzipped to your file system, it creates the following structure. orrxu ExchangeUtility Tool Home | lib Within the ExchangeUtility Tool Home directory, you will find the Oracle Registry Repository Exchange Utility files, such as the orrxu.xml, UDDIMappings.xml, orrxu.properties, orrxu.bat, and encrypt.bat files.

10.2.1.2 Configure Using the Asset Type Name

When a solutions pack is imported to a system that has existing Asset Types with different UUIDs than the pack, then those Asset Types are created and versioned. The orrxu.properties file specifies asset types by name, which causes results to be inaccurate. This is because it tries to use the asset types that already existed, and not the ones that were included in the new solutions pack. In previous versions of Oracle Enterprise Repository, some Asset Types were not created by the solutions pack, but rather manually, which generated a random UUID. If you have an existing asset with the same name as the datapack, then the work around is to rename the asset in their system, before they import the new datapack.
