Installation of ODI 12.2 on Centos 7.4 – Part 2 – ODI Installation
ODI Studio is ready but missing repositories and an agent.
Repositories creation
Go to your installation directory + /oracle_common/bin and run rcu :

We will provide dba user and perform all in once (other options create scripts for dba to run).

Fill your DB info (First real test for our XE db).

Here, I got issue with connection, at first I got error :
Could not get JDBC Connection; nested exception is java.sql.SQLException: Unable to start the Universal Connection Pool: oracle.ucp.UniversalConnectionPoolException: Cannot get Connection from Datasource: java.sql.SQLException: ORA-00604: error occurred at recursive SQL level 1ORA-01882: timezone region not found
After some investigation it’s a driver incompatibility because XE is an oracle 11g.
I chose « an easy » solution. I edited the rcu script (in /oracle_common/bin) and added following option to the commande line:
This solve the issue for rcu, but same issue will arise later with all the tools conecting to the repositories.
After this was done, I got warned I used Oracle XE which is not certified… …not an issue for my install test.
Ignore >
Why 6h on screenshot ? (It was 4am and decided to take a nap before clicking Ignore)
OK
Selecting the component as on screenshot (Kept thE DEV prefix as this is just a install test); Added the master and work repo component.
Next>
OK
Chose a password for all oracle schema created (Will be 4 of them).
Select :
- Odi SUPERVISOR password : maximum 12 characters
- Type of install : Dev or Exploitation. (Exploit does not allow Studio connection)
- The name of the work repo. I chose DEV_REPO, not to take all default values 🙂
- Set the workrepo password : maximum 10 character
- Encryption Algorithm
Warning FAILURE AES-256: At first I though : why AES-128 when proposing 256… …so selected 256. But this lead afterward to repository creation to fails with an unsupported encryption algorithm. Its seems a configuration need to be adapted for AES-256 to work. I did not investigate further ans selected AES-128. Not bothering for my test.

Summary of users and Tablespaces to be used.
Note that there is a 4th schema created and not listed : DEV_WLS_RUNTIME.
In addition it creates objects in the SYSTEM schema (you can find documentation about those info).

Full sucess
Close
repositories are created, time to launch for the first time the studio and connect to the repository.
ODI Studio first connection
Go to /Oracle_Home/odi/studio in your odi directory.
Before running the odi.sh, I wanted to prevent the timezone issue I edited the config file (/Oracle_Home/odi/studio/bin.odi.conf) to add
No previous install, I do not import anything.
No
Here we are. We can connect to the repository

Time to know if you noted everything down correctly.
Fill everything, select Work repository and click the magnifier. If db info are correct you will be prompted to select the available work repo.
OK
You can Test than click OK.
For info, my first test took some time. Some stuff needed seeding according to logs 😉
OK
You are proposed to store your password in a wallet. You can chose that option and create a wallet.
I chose the unsecure path for this test.
OK
OK
We are now connected.
Environement is nearly ready. We just need an agent to execute our packages.
This is done in two steps :
- Creating agent in studio
- Setup the « agent service »
Order is not supposed to be important but as I’m connected to the studio, I’ll start with it.
Creating Physical agent in Studio
Right clicks Agents and select New Agent
Chose a suiting name and fill host info.
Save
It’s done.
Create WebLogic domain and Standalone Agent
Browse /oracle_common/common/bin and run config tool
Rem : I added once more the JVM option about timezone to the config_internal.sh file.
We create a new domain and select location
Next >
I want a standalone agent.
Next>
I keep my effective jdk.
Next >
Fill repository information.
Get RCU Configuration.
If successful, Next >
Next>
Checks should be successful
Next>
Enter the Physical agent name you setup in studio
Next>
Fill the Agent ip and supervisor password.
Next >
Create the WebLogic NodeManager username and password
Next>
Create
Next>
Finish
We can now start and test the agent
Start StandAlone Agent
Go to your Domain Location /bin
Replace with your agent name.
Now you can log to the studio, right click the agent and test it.
Congratulation, ODI is now ready for you!
Note you still need to setup security and topology… …this will be for another night…
