The AutoConfig Build Context utility (adbldxml.pl)

Recently I learned about a two utilities to modify the context file on you machines - We mostly just us VI to modify these files — which can really get you into trouble unless you make a backup copy before hand.  The first Tool is adbldxml.pl

How Does it Work

 

The AutoConfig Build Context utility reads information from EBS database and environment variables and builds the context file out of the database context template (

 

$ORACLE_HOME/appsutil/template/adxdbctx.tmp). This is illustrated in the figure above.

 

The second utility is used from within  the applications (inside  Oracle applicatios manager) OAM.  To navigate to this — I used the sysadmin responsibility that has the OAM tab or when you first login to the apps you can navigate or login to OAM. — Once there I immediately go to the site map — with the administration tab selected -system configuration section -autoconfig (a few seconds) click on the edit - parameters pencil for the tier you want to modify - then I go to the tab - labeled  environments - then  I choose the last option oa_environements.applsys  — here you can modify any of the parameters you want or need to modify — Once you save these changes — the templates — that autoconfig uses will be udpated — so that the next time you run autoconfig the changes will take effect inside your context file (*.xml). 

Hope this helps.
