Enhanced Features of EBS 12.2.5

Script to Automate Changing Oracle WebLogic Server Administration User Password (Conditional to be on patch set level R12.AD.C.Delta.7 and R12.TXK.C.Delta.7 )

    The procedure used to change the Oracle WebLogic Server Administration User Password has been simplified and largely automated by the introduction of a new utility that performs what were previously manual steps.

    You can set the Oracle WebLogic Server Administration User password to a non-default value during Oracle E-Business Suite installation. if you need to change the password at a later time, you can do so on the run file system by shutting down all application tier services except the Admin Server, then running the new$FND_TOP/patch/115/bin/txkUpdateEBSDomain.pl script with the -action=updateAdminPassword option.

Support for Middle Tier EBS Technology Checker

    The new middle tier checker (MT-ETCC) technology script complements the original ETCC database checker script (now called DB-ETCC). The scripts report respectively on any missing middle tier and database tier bugfixes and patches that are required for Release 12.2.

Simplified Procedure for Changing WLS Data Source

    Changing the APPS schema password in the WLS Data Source with FNDCPASS or AFPASSWD has now been simplified and partially automated. The required sequence of actions on the run file system of the primary node includes shutting down the application tier services; starting AdminServer with the adadminsrvctl.sh script; running thetxkManageDBConnectionPool.pl script and choosing the 'updateDSPassword' option; and finally restarting the application tier services.
