About Installing and Configuring P6 EPPM

 

This guide tells you how to automatically install and configure your applications. Before you begin, read the Prerequisites for P6 EPPM Configuration (on page 7).

Installing P6 EPPM

You will use the setup.exe (for Windows) ./runinstaller (for Linux or UNIX) in the Primavera P6 Enterprise Project Portfolio Management physical media or download to install the following P6 EPPM applications:

 

Note: You do not have to install all applications; you can pick and choose what you install. However, you must install P6 to run the other P6 EPPM applications.

 

4 P6 (and its help and tutorials)

4 P6 Team Member Interfaces (includes P6 Team Member Web, E-mail Statusing Service, and the server-side components for P6 mobile)

 

Notes:

  • You will need to configure E-mail Statusing Service separately. See the P6 EPPM System Administration Guide.
  • P6 for ios supports SSL (https) or HTTP only when it has a certificate signed by a trusted authority.
  • P6 for android requires SSL (https) when you are not using SSO authentication. If you are using SSO authentication, you can use HTTP or HTTPs protocols. HTTPS requires a valid certificate from an Android trusted certifying authority.

 

4 P6 Professional Cloud Connect

Select the P6 Professional Cloud Connect install option if you plan to  use P6 Professional with an EPPM Oracle database by connecting to a remote service. The wizard sets up a remote method of access to connect to the EPPM database and the P6 APIs. For more details on establishing the P6 Professional Cloud Connect database connection in P6 Professional, see the P6 Professional Installation and Configuration Guide (P6 EPPM)

 

Notes:

  • When you choose to install P6 Professional Cloud Connect, the wizard will also install P6 Integration API (in remote mode) by default. 
  • P6 Professional Cloud Connect does not apply to Microsoft SQL Server database users.

 

4 P6 Integration API

About Installing and Configuring P6 EPPM

 

Note: The wizard installs the remote P6 Integration API. If you want to use the local-mode P6 Integration API, see the P6 EPPM Integration API Configuration Guide.

 

4 P6 EPPM Web Services

Configuring P6 EPPM

Use the P6 EPPM Configuration Wizard for your initial configuration of P6 EPPM. The P6 EPPM Configuration Wizard is a wizard that you can use to create a P6 configuration in Primavera P6 Administrator and to configure:

4 A connection to an Oracle or Microsoft SQL Server database

4 A WebLogic domain

4 Connections to optional enabling technologies, such as a content repository (Oracle Webcenter Content Core Capabilities (WCCC), Microsoft Sharepoint, or CMIS-compliant repositories), BIP, and or BPM

By default, the P6 EPPM Configuration Wizard runs automatically after you install your P6 EPPM applications. If you need to manually launch the P6 EPPM Configuration Wizard, use eppmconfig.cmd (for Windows) eppmconfig (for Linux) from the P6 EPPM installation folder at

C:\P6EPPM_1\p6.

After you use the P6 EPPM Configuration Wizard, use Primavera P6 Administrator to configure P6 EPPM administration settings. For more information about Primavera P6 Administrator, see the P6 EPPM System Administration Guide.

 

       

Prerequisites for P6 EPPM Configuration

 

Review and complete the prerequisites before configuring any P6 EPPM applications.

 

Minimum Hard Disk Space

Installing the entire P6 EPPM suite requires 1GB of hard disk space. If you configure the WebLogic domain, that will require 1.75GB of hard disk space; it also requires 4GB of available system memory.

 

Note: These numbers do not include the space the database requires because that is dependent on how you configure it.

 

 

JDK Installation

WebLogic Server requires that you have a Java Development Kit (JDK) installed on your machine. You must manually download and install the required JDK. For a list of supported JDK versions for P6 EPPM, see the Tested Configurations document. As new releases of the software become available, you can find them at http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/archive-139210.html.

       

 

Setting an Environment Variable for Java

After installing the JDK, you must set the following environment variables to ensure the P6 EPPM installation scripts can locate your Java libraries:

4 JAVA_HOME

4 PATH

Setting the Environment Variables in Microsoft Windows

To set the JAVA_HOME and PATH environment variables in Microsoft Windows:

1)    Click Start, Control Panel, System, and then Advanced system settings.

2)    In the System Properties dialog box, on the Advanced tab, click Environment Variables.

3)    Add the JAVA_HOME environment variable:

  1. In the System Variables section, click New.
  2. In the Variable name field, enter JAVA_HOME.
  3. In the Variable value field, enter the location where the JDK software is installed (for example, C:\Program Files\Java\<java_version>)
  4. Click OK.

4)    Update the PATH environment variable to include the location of the Java executable files:

  1. In the System Variables section, select the PATH variable, and click Edit.
  2. In the Variable value field, insert %JAVA_HOME%\bin; in front of all the existing directories. Do not delete any existing entries; otherwise, some existing applications may not run.
  3. Click OK.

5)    Exit the Control Panel.

Setting the Environment Variables with Unix or Linux

To set the JAVA_HOME and PATH environment variables with Unix or Linux:

1)    Set the JAVA_HOME environment variable by typing the following command:

export JAVA_HOME=<JDK_installation_path>

2)    Set the PATH environment variable by typing the following command:  export PATH=$PATH:$JAVA_HOME/bin  

Installing WebLogic

You will need to install WebLogic to deploy P6 EPPM. For supported versions, see the Tested

Configurations document. For more information about how to install WebLogic, see the following URL: http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/middleware/weblogic/documentation/index.html

 

Note: Oracle recommends that you install Oracle Access Manager on a new WebLogic Middleware home.

If existing Middleware applications are installed into the Middleware home (for example, BI Publisher or Identity Management), Access Manager will fail to deploy.

 

Tips

After you finish installing WebLogic, ensure you can run the startNodeManager.cmd (with Windows) startNodeManager.sh (with UNIX or Linux) before installing P6 EPPM. If you cannot run this file, contact your WebLogic administrator for help.

       

Installing a Database

You can use either Oracle or Microsoft SQL Server on your database server for P6 EPPM deployments. For more information about supported database versions, refer to Tested Configurations. You must install the database server before you can create the P6 EPPM database.

If you are using an Oracle Database, you must make sure to create a database with the Oracle Text option enabled. Oracle Text supports the Oracle Database content repository by using standard SQL to index, search, and analyze text and documents stored in the database, in files and on the web. For more details, refer to the Oracle Database documentation.

If you are using a Microsoft SQL Server Database, you must make sure that you enable FILESTREAM before attempting your P6 EPPM installation or upgrade. For information about how to enable FILESTREAM, refer to the Microsoft SQL Server documentation for your version.

 

Notes

  • If you attempt to create a database using Oracle Database 12c, the option to create a container database is enabled by default. If you do not want to create a container database, deselect the Create As Container Database check box during the database creation process. If you create a container database, you must also create a pluggable database on which to install your P6 EPPM instance.
  • When using an Oracle database, you must install Oracle Multimedia, along with these supporting components: Oracle JVM, Oracle XML DB (XDB), and XML Developer‘s Kit (XDK). Unless you specify otherwise, all these components automatically get installed with the latest versions of an Oracle database (11g and later). If you chose not to install these components, you will need to install them before you install P6 EPPM. See the Oracle Multimedia‘s User‘s Guide on the Oracle Technology Network (OTN) for information on how to install these components.
  • Oracle Text is enabled by default.
  • jobsvc.job_data_x is used to store XML data for XML import processes using the Varbinary(Max) datatype. In order to support the Varbinary(Max) datatype, you must enable FILESTREAM.

                   

Grant Privileges to the SYSTEM User

Before installing P6 EPPM, execute the following steps:

1)    Navigate to the following location, open the designated script in a text editor, and modify the schema user reference to match your actual schema user name:

\scripts\install\PM_<release level>\manual_script_before_install.sql

You must apply grant options to the SYSTEM schema user or a custom user associated with the Oracle DBA role. If you plan to use a custom schema user, other than SYSTEM, to execute steps which require a DBA role, then you must update the references to SYSTEM in the script with the new custom schema user associated with the DBA role.

2)    From the command line, execute: sqlplus sys/[email protected]<db_tns_names_entry> as sysdba

3)    Go to p6suite\database\scripts\install\PM_<release_level>, and execute manual_script_before_install.sql.

This script grants SELECT and EXECUTE privileges with grant option to SYSTEM, or a custom DBA username if you prefer to use one, for the following sys objects:

SELECT

4 sys.DBA_VIEWS

EXECUTE

4 sys.DBMS_DBMS_REPUTIL

4 sys.DBMS_DBMS_LOB

4 sys.DBMS_SQL

4 sys.DBMS_JOB

4 sys.DBMS_RANDOM

4 sys.V_$TRANSACTION

 

Note: For more information about the listed sys objects, refer to the Oracle Database documentation.

                   

Content Repository Installation and Configuration

The Content Repository allows users to collaboratively share and manage documents in P6. For P6 EPPM users to utilize the enhanced document management functionality, you must install either Oracle Webcenter Content Core Capabilities (WCCC) or a CMIS-compliant content repository. Refer to the documentation included with those applications for installation instructions.

 

Note: P6 supports clustering of the Content Repository only when using WebLogic for the application server.

 

After you install the Content Repository application and P6, perform the following tasks to complete the Content Repository setup:

4 Configure the Content Repository server based on your organization’s needs. 

4 See Configuring WCCC to Work with P6

4 If you are using another CMIS-compliant repository, see the installation instructions included with your content repository.

4 Enter the appropriate Database/Instance/Content Repository Primavera P6 Administrator settings. You can use the P6 EPPM Configuration Wizard to enter your settings. See Using the Content Repository Selection Screen (on page 29) for detailed information about these settings.

For more information about installing and configuring a content repository for P6 EPPM, refer to the P6 EPPM Content Repository Configuration Guide.

 

BI Publisher Installation

Consult BI Publisher documentation for installation instructions. For complete overview information about BI Publisher, go to the following web site: http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/middleware/bi-publisher/documentation/index.html.

       

Workflows Repository Installation

The Workflows Repository helps users to keep track of project initiations in P6. For P6 users to utilize the project initiation functionality, you must install the supported Workflows Repository application, BPM. Refer to the documentation included with the Oracle BPM application for installation instructions.

 

Installing the Oracle MDS Schema for BPM

If you are using BPM, you must install the Oracle MDS schema using the Repository Creation Unit (RCU) on a separate database instance. See the Tested Configurations document for supported versions.

       

Modifying the P6 Environment for BPM

To configure BPM with P6:

1) Create a new directory on the host where P6 is running. For example, P6BPMConnector/P6 and P6BPMConnector/BPM.

In the P6 media pack Tools\BPM Connector\12c subfolder, locate the prm-bpm-connector-12c-v1.0.jar

1)    Copy the connector file listed above to the P6BPMConnector/P6 folder you created.

Determine the location of the BPM installation that you are using to integrate with P6. If you have multiple SOA Suite installations, ensure that you determine the location of the specific installation that you are integrating with P6.

2)    Copy all the supporting jars from the BPM installation that you are using to integrate with P6 to the P6BPMConnector/BPM folder you created. Their default locations are listed: 4 <Oracle_Home>\soa\soa\modules\oracle.soa.fabric_11.x.x\bpm-infra.j ar

4 <Oracle_Home>\soa\soa\modules\oracle.soa.workflow_11.x.x\bpm-servi ces.jar 4 <Oracle_Home>\soa\soa\modules\oracle.soa.fabric_11.x.x\fabric-runt ime.jar

4 <Oracle_Home>\oracle_common\modules\oracle.jmx_12.x.x\jmxframework .jar

4 <Oracle_Home>\oracle_common\modules\oracle.jmx_12.x.x\jmxspi.jar

4 <Oracle_Home>\soa\bpm\modules\oracle.bpm.mgmt_11.x.x\oracle.bpm.bp mn-em-tools.jar

4 <Oracle_Home>\soa\soa\modules\oracle.soa.mgmt_11.x.x\soa-infra-mgm t.jar

4 <Oracle_Home>\wlserver\server\lib\wlclient.jar

4 <Oracle_Home>\oracle_common\modules\oracle.xdk_12.x.x\xml.jar

4 <Oracle_Home>\oracle_common\modules\oracle.xdk_12.x.x\xmlparserv2. jar

4 <Oracle_Home>\soa\soa\modules\oracle.soa.fabric_11.x.x\tracking-ap i.jar

4 <Oracle_Home>\soa\soa\modules\oracle.rules_11.x.x\rulesdk2.jar

 

Note: The jars must be from the same BPM installation that will be integrated with P6.

 

3) Edit the weblogic.policy file:

  1. Locate the weblogic.policy file in one of the following locations:

In Windows: <Oracle_Home>/wlserver/server/lib In Linux: <Oracle_Home>/wlserver/server/lib

  1. Add the following information in weblogic.policy file and restart the P6 application server.

 

grant codeBase "file:<full path to BPM support JAR directory>/*" { permission java.security.AllPermission;

};

For example :

grant codeBase "file:C:/oracle/bpm12XX/*" { permission java.security.AllPermission;

};

or

grant codeBase "file:/home/oracle/bpm12XX/*" { permission java.security.AllPermission;

};

  1. Save and close the file.
  2. Restart the P6 application server.

 

Installing IAIK-JCE

IAIK-JCE is a Java Cryptography Extension that has a set of APIs and can implement cryptographic functionality. It is used for supporting additional security functionalities to the JDK. IAIK-JCE libraries can be used to support higher level of encryption while storing/transmitting sensitive information (for example, passwords) in P6 EPPM.

IAIK-JCE is installed when you install P6 EPPM. To allow the P6 EPPM installer to recognize and install IAIK-JCE, you must modify your existing java.security settings and copy the iaik_jce.jar file to the correct location in <Java_Home>.

To prepare IAIK-JCE for installation:

1)    Navigate to the following URL:  http://jce.iaik.tugraz.at/sic/Products/Core-Crypto-Toolkits/JCA_JCE

2)    Download and extract iaik_jce.zip locally. See Tested Configurations for the supported versions of IAIK-JCE.

On the Database Configuration screen:

1)    Choose one of the following:

4 Select Create a new P6 EPPM database if you are creating a new database.

Select the Install Sample Projects option if you want to include sample project data in a non-production database. If you do not select the Install Sample Projects option, the P6 EPPM database loads empty data in a secure state and includes only the most basic information needed to run.

4 Select Upgrade an existing P6 EPPM database if you are upgrading your database.

4 Select Connect to an existing P6 EPPM <release_level> database if you already installed a database and want to configure your applications with it.

 

Note: Before you install sample data, you should ensure sample data will not be audited. To disable Unified Auditing: 

  1. Open command prompt (if Windows) or terminal (if UNIX) and connect to your database using the following command:

 sqlplus sys/[email protected] as sysdba

  1. Execute the following commands in the same window:

 noaudit policy ORA_SECURECONFIG;  noaudit policy ORA_LOGON FAILURES;

  1. Close the window. 

 

2)    Click Next.
