Unix/Linux file restoration by TSM:
Logon to server where file is locally stored (i.e. not where the file may be NFS
mounted)
User id must be the owner of the file. TSM backups files under the ‘true’ name. Linked files would be backed up the target file’s name
$

To get a list of backups available, issue
tsm> q b -inactive -pitdate=04/01/2017 -subdir=yes /u02/app/EBSQA/
Note:
1. The result list is way too long to read
2. The result list is much short without '/' at the end.
(I do not know/understand why and what it reports)

Send concurrent output to email by SMTP
When submit a R12.1.3 concurrent job, we can send the Output file to email directly by simply click on "Delivery Opts" => tab "Email" => Fill it with email info => Ok
Please note that the "From" field has to be an email address (it can be the same as "To:" field). Otherwise, it may fail with a generic error:
Beginning post-processing of request 32163793 on node CM_host_name at 11-JUL-2017 12:10:11.
Post-processing of request 32163793 failed at 11-JUL-2017 12:10:12 with the error message:
One or more post-processing actions failed. Consult the OPP service log for details.
Three configuration steps before the email will be delivered. Note this is not related to Workflow Mailer. When Mailer is down, concurrent job can still deliver Output to email box.
1. Test SMTP on concurrent node. If SMTP works on the node, it shall deliver an email to yourID@outlook_name.com mailbox. Below test was on RH Linux 6:
$ mail -v yourID@outlook_name.com
Subject: hi
Hello world
done
. <-- dot is very important
EOT
Mail Delivery Status Report will be mailed to <xxxxxx>.
2. Ask Linux Admin to confirm that port 25 is used for SMTP on the node
[root@CM_host_name ~]# lsof -i:25
COMMAND PID USER FD TYPE DEVICE SIZE/OFF NODE NAME
master 6656 root 12u IPv4 18028 0t0 TCP localhost:smtp (LISTEN)

b. Query the %fnd%smtp% profiles
c. Set the following profile values
FND: SMTP Host (CM_host_name or IP)
FND: SMTP Port (port number, default 25)
Troubleshooting: Even after about 3 steps worked, the Output was still not delivered to email box. The errors in OPP files under $APPLCSF/log:

Change APPLSYSPUB and APPS password in R12.1.3
Extra steps are needed for changing APPLSYSPUB's password. Oracle document ID 437260.1 gives various command lines to change passwords for EBS R12.1. It also says, as of today, "Do not use any special characters in password because FNDCPASS utility does not support special characters". In situations, we have to include special character in the password because EBS's Oracle database profile may have password complexity requirements asking for at least one special character.
I tested and found if APPLSYSPUB's password has # or $ in it, EBS forms will hang and after 10 seconds get frozen. However it works with "_" in it, and it works with upper or lower cases in it.
So, the steps to change APPLSYSPUB's password in R12.1.3 are
1. Modify $CONTEXT_FILE (on each node) and put the new password in s_gwyuid_pass.
2. Stop EBS apps services.
3. $ FNDCPASS APPS/apps_PWD 0 Y SYSTEM/[system_pwd] ORACLE APPLSYSPUB New_PWD
If it works, the Lxxxxxx.log shall say (but not always)
Working...
Password is changed successfully for user APPLSYSPUB.
AFPASSWD completed successfully. (PROGNAME=FNDCPASS)
4. run autoconfig.sh on each apps node.
(without this step, login page will not work, with errors in $LOG_HOME/ora/10.1.3/j2ee/oacore/oacore_default_group_1/application.log)
After all done, APPLSYSPUB's new password is saved in text $FND_SECURE/xxx.dbc file. So, use different passwords in non-prod instances and prod instance. Note about steps will not update files $FND_TOP/resource/appsweb.cfg and $OA_HTML/bin/appsweb.cfg.
Similar steps to change all schemas' password and APPS password:
1. Verify SYSTEM password and current APPS password work.
2. Stop EBS apps services
3. Change all EBS schemas' password (optional and only if needed)
$ FNDCPASS apps/current_APPSpwd 0 Y system/'system_PWD' ALLORACLE new_schPWD
4. Change APPS password
$ FNDCPASS apps/current_APPSpwd 0 Y system/'system_PWD' SYSTEM APPLSYS new_appsPWD
5. verify the new password and make sure three key accounts are not locked
$ sqlplus apps/new_appsPWD
SQL> select username,user_id,password,account_status,lock_date,expiry_date
from dba_users where USERNAME in ('APPS', 'APPLSYSPUB', 'SYSTEM');
6. Run autoconfig on each node. (that will re-create two database links used by E-business suite)
7. Start EBS apps services.
To change one EBS schema (such as POA and CUSTOM top/schema docXX) password:
Troubleshooting:
After APPS (and APPLSYSPUB) password was changed, EBS failed in re-directing to the login page. In Firefox, the login page https://ebssite.domain.com/OA_HTML/AppsLogin shows generic error

I followed Doc ID 1926189.1 (Login Page Cannot Be Accessed After Changing The APPLSYSPUB Password) without seeing "lock" keyword in any application.log (by command locate application.log | egrep -i 'lock'). But I did find APPLSYSPUB account was locked. Seems some process kept trying the account with old password and made it "LOCKED(TIMED)". No any errors in logs by adstrtal.sh.

Apache does not start due to bad group name
When I logged onto a server to clone an EBS instance from production, it gave a message

"id" command shows group name is missing.

I ignored the message and completed the clone. After that, Apache service did not start and even did not create any log files in $LOG_HOME/ora/10.1.3/Apache folder. The only error is in $LOG_HOME/ora/10.1.3/opmn/HTTP_Server~1.log :
apachectl startssl: execing httpd
httpd: bad group name 148
I realized where the problem came from and asked Linux Admin to fix the Group name issue.
$ id
uid=1172(ebsdev) gid=148(ebs) groups=148(ebs)
Then, I replaced 148 with the group name in file $ORA_CONFIG_HOME/10.1.3/Apache/Apache/conf/httpd.conf
User ebsdev
Group ebs
I also verified file /etc/group is READable. After that, I started Apache without problem.
id: cannot find name for group ID 148.
"id" command shows group name is missing.
