Setting up manually the eBS provisioning tool on oci

This note is about OCI (baremetal) and is derived from this tutorial. The note for OCI-c is posted here.

Either one of this manual or automatic method can be used.

Proceed as follow:

Step 1: Deploy a provisioning VM with a standard1.1 shape.

Step 2: Download, from edelivery, the Oracle E-Business Suite on Oracle Cloud Infrastructure Automation Archive (V975021-01.zip), and transfer the zip file on the VM.

Step 3: Install the provisioning tool (login as root)

unzip V975021-01.zip
mkdir /u01
tar -xvzf EBSCloudAdminTools_v18.1.1.tgz -C /u01
cd /u01/EBSEBSCloudAdminTools_v18.1.1/bin
./setup.sh --provider=oci

The tool will run for 15 minutes, downloading and installing the necessary packages.
