Notes

  • Due to the complex Oracle compatibility with Linux, the combination of Oracle database and Linux version that can be used must be discussed in advance.
  • Documents can be stored directly on the app server or on a separate file server.
  • HDDs are generally not supported for the app and database server, but can be used for the file server.
  • Storage requirements are determined individually based on customer requirements.
  • Two virtual machines are required for 20 users or more.
  • A Windows operating system is required for the app server.
  • No other database should be operated on the virtual machine for the Oracle database.
  • In general, the Oracle database benefits more from a higher clocked CPU than from many threads.
  • A RAID-5 or shared storage with HDD/SSD pool can lead to significant performance losses.
  • Only DE or EN are supported as system languages.
  • IPv6 must not be disabled.
  • A service user in AD is mandatory, which is added to the local administrator group on each VM.
  • A current browser must be pre-installed.
  • An installed .NET Framework 4.8 is a prerequisite on the app server.
  • A share is needed on which the service user and PatOrg users have read and write access.
  • During initial setup and later upgrades, third-party security tools/antivirus scanners must be temporarily disabled.
  • Only native Microsoft Exchange solutions are supported for the Outlook Add-In.
  • Oracle Express Edition (XE) supports a maximum of 12 users and two Oracle schemas due to its limitations.
