AutoConfig Scripts and Directories

A number of key configuration and control scripts are employed in an AutoConfig environment. AutoConfig creates several directories for these scripts and their associated files.

AutoConfig Scripts

Key AutoConfig configuration scripts on UNIX (command files on Windows) include:

• adautocfg.sh - Wrapper script that passes the name of the specific environment context file to adconfig.sh. Located in <INST_TOP>/admin/scripts on the application tier, and <RDBMS_ORACLE_HOME>/appsutil/scripts/<CONTEXT_NAME> on the database tier.
  
• adconfig.sh - Invoked by adautocfg.sh, this script is a wrapper for adconfig.pl. Located in <AD_TOP>/bin on the application tier, and <RDBMS_ORACLE_HOME>/appsutil/bin on the database tier.
  
• adconfig.pl - Invoked by adconfig.sh, this Perl script calls the Java API to carry out the actual configuration tasks. Located in <AD_TOP>/bin on the application tier, and <RDBMS_ORACLE_HOME>/appsutil/bin on the databccase tier.

In addition to these configuration scripts, several additional AutoConfig scripts are used to help manage the Oracle E-Business Suite system. These are described later in this chapcter, under Management Tasks.

AutoConfig Directories

Several directories are created by AutoConfig, as shown in the following table.
