Limited Supported for TWS 8.5 FP01 for TDWC on Oracle Database Server 11gR2 64bit

Content

TWS 8.5 FP01 has been certified to run correctly on Oracle Database Server 11gR2 64bit.
However the following additional actions are needed to solve the know limitation:

a) The MDM installations fails at step 3(Configure the Tivoli Workload Scheduler database). the error message is as following:

- --->>> Installation completed with errors <<<---
/tmp/TWA/tws85/scripts/createdb_root.sh orcl system ******** twsmdm ******** FAL
SE TRUE
<< has occurred during the installation process.
"": invalid values passed to "isBackupMaster" argument.
Valid values are: TRUE or FALSE
One or more errors has occurred
Exit code = 7
workaround action:
add /usr/xpg4/bin to PATH
for example:
PATH=/usr/xpg4/bin:$PATH
export PATH

b) The MDM installations fails at step 13(Commit the Tivoli Workload Scheduler instance). the error message is as following:

MAKESEC:Starting user MAESTRO [Security.conf (#14)]
AWSBEH021E The user "twsmdm" is not authorized to access the server on host "127.0.0.1" using port "31116".
AWSBIA090I For file "cpudef_unix": errors 1, warnings 0.
The following command failed: composer -f /export/home/twsmdm/.TWS/useropts_twsmdm replace cpudef_unix.

For this problem, I found some error informations from log file of eWAS of TWS. It seem that the wrong ELF class of libocijdbc11.so cause this problem, please see the red part. And current jre is build 1.5.0_17-b04.

workaround action:
you can install an Oracle client 11.1 to connect to the Oracle Server 11.2. In this case you will have lib32 directory in this Oracle client, and you can point to that for TWS installation.
