The Ma ximo applicat ion consist s of th e following E AR files:

ma ximo.ear for the Maximo application

ma ximohelp.ear for th e Maximo Help applicat ion

acweb.ear for th e IBM Actu at e Active Port al Integra tion applicat ion

In order to ru n Maximo, you must deploy the Maximo applicat ion E AR

files in th e application server.

When Maximo applicat ion EAR files ar e deployed in th e Application

Server, th e server m aint ains a copy of the EAR files int ern ally.

The Maximo insta llation builds the E AR files based on the informa tion

you pr ovided dur ing th e insta llation. Any configur at ion chan ges require

you to rebu ild and redeploy the E AR files.

You use your a pplicat ion ser ver softwa re t o deploy the E AR files that the

Maximo installat ion p rogram builds. All thr ee EAR filesma ximo.ear,

(MAXIMOSERVER).

After you deploy the E AR files, a copy of each E AR file is saved in th e

applicat ion server software folder str uctur e. The applicat ion server u ses this

copy when ru nn ing an d does not access th e EAR files from th e Maximo root

JSP Technology Maximo applications use JS P technology. An a pplicat ion ser ver, such as th eBEA WebLogic server, is used for accepting HTTP requests from client

program s (web browsers) an d for r esponding in HTML cont ent .

When a client requests a J SP page, the application server processes the J SP

page, and the web server sends the r esult of the J SP pa ge in H TML content

back to th e client. Refer t o the

Maximo Components


Maximo Components

The following section describes t he ser ver component s in a typical Maximo

environment.

Application Server

Maximo is built u sing J 2EE (Ja va 2 En terp rise Edit ion) technology, which

requir es us ing a comm ercial applicat ion ser ver. Maximo uses BEA WebLogic

8.1.4 as it s application server.

The Applicat ion Server consists of Maximo Applicat ions using J avaSer ver

Pa ges (JSP ), XML, an d Ma ximo applicat ion specific business component s.

The Maximo Application also insta lls th e Active Port al, which ena bles you to

use t he Web to access report s in your En cyclopedia volume a nd t he

Mana gement Console. This web-based capability fur th er ena bles you to

deploy an d t est r eports on a n En cyclopedia volum e. You access report s by

using a Web browser (Int ern et E xplorer ) to access th e En cyclopedia volum e

th rough Active Porta l.

Actuate Server

As pa rt of Maximo, Actuat e is offered as t he em bedded report ing tool.

Actu at es Informa tion Delivery Solut ion en ables you t o crea te, ma na ge, and

deliver in ter active, actionable cont ent .

However, it is your option wh eth er or not t o use Actu at e as your Maximo

Report ing tool. As you perform th e Maximo insta llation (Cha pter 4), if you do

not choose to use Actu at e, you simply skip th e Actu at e references and

continu e completing the Maximo insta llation program.

If you do choose to u se Actu at e, preferably, inst all th e Actu at e iServer on a

separat e server on th e network. It generat es and m ana ges report document s

an d provides:

A server-based system to gener at e, ma na ge, an d deliver intera ctive,

actionable electr onic report s

Preparing Oracle Instance



In th is section, you p erform th e following ta sks:

Verify the Oracle instance requirements.

Creat e Maximo Ta blespace(s).

Create t he Maximo user.

Creat e the Maximo data base objects.

Database Character Set

Maximo support s mult iple langu ages within a single schem a. The Oracle

instance must be created with th e char acter set tha t will support all the

langua ges which you will be using. For example, English, Fr ench, Germa n,

Spanish, Dutch, Portu guese, and Italian a ll use the Oracle char acter set

WE8ISO8859P1.

If you plan to use a mix of langu ages tha t cann ot all use a single cha ra cter set,

such as E nglish, Chinese, and Polish, then you m ust create t he dat abase with

th e Unicode chara cter set AL32UTF8. The AL32UTF8 chara cter set is the

only Unicode chara cter set t ha t can be u sed with MAXIMO.

If you create t he dat abase with AL32UTF8 or an y multi-byte cha ra cter set

you must also set the initialization parameter nls_length_semantics=CHAR.

Verifying the Oracle Instance Requirements

The Ora cle instan ce for Maximo mu st h ave Ora cle Text insta lled. Maximo

uses Ora cle Text for indexes on description fields. You can verify th at Ora cle

Text is inst alled by checking for th e CTXSYS u serid.

Fr om SQL Plus, run th e following comman d:

select username from dba_users where username = CTXSYS;

If Ora cle Text is insta lled, th is comman d will retu rn th e nam e CTXSYS.

NOTE The inst an ce for Maximo will need at least 100MB of tem porar y tablespace

an d 100MB of un do tablespace.

If Oracle Text is not in sta lled, refer to Ora cle insta llation docum ent at ion for

more detail.

Oracle Init ialization Parameters

IBM Corpora tion does not pr ovide deta iled per form an ce settings for MAXIMO

becau se ther e are a n infinite nu mber of combina tions of data sizes, user

counts , module usages, add-on m odule usages, system configur at ions, an d

cust omizat ions possible in an Maximo system. Tak e advan ta ge of all the

feat ur es of Ora cle 9.2 and 10g tu ning, such as:

Use locally ma na ged ta blespaces for MAXIMO ta bles an d indexes.

Use the n ew method of PGA man agement by setting

WORKAREA_SIZE_POLICY=AUTO a nd

PGA_AGGREGATE_TARGET=memory value.

Use the new method of SGA man agement by setting

SGA_TARGET = memory value.

Control I/O cache via DB_CACHE_SIZE instead of

DB_BLOCK_BUFFERS.

Reduce libra ry lat ch content ion by sett ing CURSOR_SHARING=

SIMILAR or F ORCE.

Make sur e OPTIMIZER_FE ATURES_ENABLE is set to your curr ent

OPE N_CURSORS = 1000 estimat ed; you may n eed more.

DBMS_J OBS_PROCESSE S = 2 required for job tha t u pdat es Oracle Text

indexes.

Beyond th e above, sizing for SGA, PGA, and so forth , is best det ermin ed by

using Oracle Ent erprise Manager or a Third-party dat abase monitoring andadministra tion tool to ana lyze the dat abase under load and mak e tun ing

recommendations.

CAUTION If you ha ve crea ted th e data base with AL32UTF8 or an y multi-byte char acterset, you must also set the initialization para meter

nls_length_semantics=CHAR.

Creating Maximo Tablespace(s)

Complete th e following steps to creat e th e Maximo ta blespaces. Maximo offers

a m ulti-schem a option. This featur e enables th e applicat ion t ables to be ownedby a user other tha n Maximo, permitting m ultiple Maximo schemas to reside

in a sin gle Ora cle instan ce.

Maximo tablespaces should be locally man aged an d not dictiona ry ma na ged.

These inst ru ctions will crea te a locally man aged ta blespace by defau lt.

If you do not include a schema owner, t he default is Maximo. The expected

size of your da ta base det erm ines th e size of a Maximo tablespace.

If you plan to insta ll the MAXDEMO schema, creat e a Ma ximo ta blespace

of size 600MB.


64/110



If you plan to crea te an empt y Maximo schema , use the est imat ed size of

th e dat abase. Refer t o Table 7-1: Dat abase Size Guidelines.

To permit growth, you can a dd another data file later or use t he

AUTOEXTEND option of th e CREATE TABLESPACE comm an d.

Use relat ed nam es for Maximo schem as a nd t ablespaces. For example, to set

up a MAXDEMO dat abase, a pr oduction dat aba se, and a t est copy of th e

production database, you might choose MAXDEMO, MAXPROD, andMAXTES T a s schem a owners an d MAXDEMO_DATA, MAXPROD_DATA,

MAXPROD_INDE X, MAXTES T_DATA, an d MAXTE ST_INDE X as

ta blespace na mes (MAXDEMO ha s only one tablespace nam e as splitt ing a

sma ll demo data base ha s no real advan ta ge). Use the following guidelines to

estima te initial ta blespace size:

To creat e a ta blespace, use t he following comm an d:

CREATE TABLESPACE DATAFILE SIZE

AUTOEXTEND ON MAXSIZE ;

where:

is th e Maximo tablespaces na me.

is t he d at a files n am e.

is the d at afiles init ial size from ta ble.

MAXSIZE is the ma ximum size allott ed to th e data

file from th e above table.

You can express both filesize and m aximum as a n um ber of megabytes when

you follow it with th e letter M (for exam ple, 1000M). You can cus tomize t he

storage parameter s for th e particular data base.

The file na me is t he full pat h of the ser ver. It includes t he local dr ive of the

server a nd pa th location t o the dat a file, and sh ould be placed inside singlequotes. For example: C:\ oracle\ orada ta\ maximo\ MAXIMO01.DBF
