Control-M for Oracle E-business Suite Patch PAOAC.9.0.01.007
BMC Software is releasing patch PAOAC.9.0.01.007 to correct a problem in Control-M for Oracle E-business Suite version 9.0.01.
Corrected Problems
The following table describes the corrected problems in this patch:
Tracking # | Description | Released in Patch |
|---|---|---|
CTM-6594 | (Windows) Control-M/Agent version 9.0.21 does not support Control-M for Oracle E-Business Suite version 9.0.01 or lower. Note:
| 9.0.01.007 |
CTM-2423 | Parameter values are either shifted or mismatched during job definition to a parameter of type Hidden. | 9.0.01.006 |
CTM-1552 | No values are returned when you click Load. This occurs when the parameter uses Flex field that depends on other parameters that have the Independent or None validation type. | 9.0.01.004 |
CTM-1613 | Incorrect parameters values appear after you load the parameter values list of the last parameter in the list. This occurs when the program has hidden parameters. | 9.0.01.004 |
CTM-344 | The Oracle system does not distribute the job output as defined in the OEBS job since the Delivery Options fields are not passed to Oracle when you submit the job. | 9.0.01.004 |
CTM-4753 | The Job log and output do not appear under the Output tab when you choose to append them to the output. To fix this issue, see Adding the BMC_UPDATE_MANUALLY_OUT_AND_LOG_DIR Parameter. | 9.0.01.003 |
CTM-4747 | The Operating Unit parameter is not passed to Oracle when you submit Request Set jobs. | 9.0.01.002 |
CTM-4750 | Jobs fail if a parameter is not given a value. Instead of using the default value, the job submits with an empty value. To fix this issue, see Adding the USE_DEFAULT_WHEN_AE_IS_EMPTY Parameter. | 9.0.01.001 |

Uninstalling the Patch
This procedure describes how to uninstall patch PAOAC.9.0.01.007 from UNIX and Windows.
Begin
- Run the following command:
- UNIX: <agent_home>/ctm/install/PAOAC.9.0.01.007/uninstall.sh
- Windows: <agent_home>\install\PAOAC.9.0.01.007\uninstall.bat
Adding the BMC_UPDATE_MANUALLY_OUT_AND_LOG_DIR Parameter
This procedure describes how to fix the problem described in CTM-4753 in Corrected Problems, where the Job log and output do not appear under the Output tab.
Begin
- Install patch PAOAC.9.0.01.007 on the Agent machine, as described in Installing the Patch on UNIX and Installing the Patch on Windows.
- Shut down the Agent.
- Do one of the following:
- UNIX: Open the <agent_home>/ctm/data/OEBS.dat configuration file, add the BMC_UPDATE_MANUALLY_OUT_AND_LOG_DIR configuration parameter, and set the value to Y.
- Windows: Open Computer\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\BMC Software\Control-M/Agent\<instance>\OEBS, add the BMC_UPDATE_MANUALLY_OUT_AND_LOG_DIR configuration parameter, and set the value to Y.
- On the Oracle database tier machine, create links that map to the physical concurrent request output and log directory from the Oracle application tier.
- In the DBA_DIRECTORIES table of the Oracle database, add new directory objects with the name BMC_OUT_DIR and BMC_LOG_DIR and set their values to the links created in step 4.
Note: If the BMC_OUT_DIR and BMC_LOG_DIR already exist, change their values to the links. - Restart the Agent.
Adding the USE_DEFAULT_WHEN_AE_IS_EMPTY Parameter
