Can a PeopleTools 8.4 and a PeopleTools 8.1x database run on the same machine?
Yes, databases can co-exist on the same physical machine. In most cases, thedatabases themselves can exist within the same
RDBMS, however, it isimportant to verify that the database version required by PeopleTools 8.4 is thesame as for the current
PeopleTools 8.1x implementation.

Customization done in Dev DB, Which tool i will use to move it to Prod DB?
Your Onsite DBA has called you up and told you that one of the tables PS_ABC_TAO has grown very big in size. Based on the
standard naming convention, you have determined that the record is a temporary record since it ends with _TAOYou look into
the database and decide that that the data is not required any more. You ask the DBA to delete the data in the table. Next day you
get a call from an irritated user who says that a daily process that took only 1 minute to run is taking about 2 hours today. You
look into his process and find that it uses PS_ABC_TAO as a temporary table.

9. Can a PeopleTools 8.4 and a PeopleTools 8.1x database run on the same machine?
Yes, databases can co-exist on the same physical machine. In most cases, the databases themselves
can exist within the same RDBMS, however, it is important to verify that the database version required by
PeopleTools 8.4 is the same as for the current PeopleTools 8.1x implementation.
10. Can a PeopleTools 8.4 and a PeopleTools 8.1xapplication server run on the same machine?
Yes, both PeopleTools 8.4 and PeopleTools 8.1x application servers can run on a single machine. It is
important to ensure that there are no port clashes between the installations.
11. How does the PeopleSoft Enterprise Portal work with 8.1x and 8.4 applications?
There are several scenarios that may exist when customers use the PeopleSoft Enterprise Portal with a
mixture of 8.1x and 8.4 applications. Specific information on the use of the PeopleSoft Enterprise Portal in
a blended environment will be available in a forthcoming white paper, which will be available on Customer
Connection. In general, the recommendation is to use the PeopleSoft Enterprise Portal 8.4with 8.1x and
8.4 applications, rather than an older version.
12. For the servlet layer on the web server, what version of the Java Servlet API are the PIA Java
Servlets coded to with PeopleTools 8.4?
The PIA Java servlets in PeopleTools 8.4 are coded to JavaSoft's Java Servlet API 2.0 and are fully
compatible with Servlet API 2.2. It should be noted that the PeopleSoft Internet Architecture is supported
only on the BEA WebLogic and WebSphere servlet engines.
13. IBM How should Web Application Servers be used with PeopleTools 8.1x and PeopleTools
8.4?
The PeopleSoft Internet Architecture uses a web application server and an HTTP server. PeopleTools
8.12 and above include both BEA WebLogic and Apache with Jserv. With PeopleTools 8.4, both BEA
WebLogic and IBM WebSphere are bundled. Apache with Jserv is no longer a supported web application
server combination. Customers can choose which web application server to run during installation time. In
a mixed PeopleTools 8.1x and 8.4 environment, each PeopleTools installation should have their own
chain of web application server and application server, PeopleSoft Proprietary and Confidential Page
5and these can be on the same machine. For example, a PeopleTools 8.1xinstallation using Apache and
Jserv could reside on the same machine as a PeopleTools 8.4 installation using IBM WebSphere. Care
should be taken to ensure that unique port numbers are assigned to each server chain.
14. Why did PeopleSoft bundle IBM WebSphere Advanced Single Server Edition rather than
Advanced Edition?
The Advanced Single Server Edition (AEs) of WebSphere provides the same core J2EE and Web
Services programming model as the Advanced Edition (AE) with simplified administration. In the AE
version WebSphere uses DB2 or other standard database to keep the configuration and runtime
information to support very large farm of WebSphere servers. However, it is one more database to install,
administer and maintain. The AEs version does not use the database and uses file based configuration in
a way that is similar to BEA WebLogic. PeopleSoft and IBM WebSphere architects determined that AEs
version would satisfy the deployment requirements of PeopleSoft customers and would make it easy for
owning and administering PeopleSoft Applications based on WebSphere.
15. Will the PeopleSoft Internet Architecture, now that it embeds BEA WebLogic and IBM
WebSphere, work with my other corporate web servers and tools?
One of the core values of the PeopleTools development group is investment protection. The time, money
and resources that you may have already invested in licensing another web server, training developers
and administrators, building and deploying other web applications will not be compromised by this
decision. How is this accomplished
16. Is BEA WebLogic the same thing as the web server that was previously on the Tuxedo CD?
No. The web server that was delivered on the Tuxedo CD has absolutely nothing to do with WebLogic.
WebLogic is a web application server that is designed for large-scale production websites. The HTTP
server on the Tuxedo CD was only there to provide a mechanism for launching the graphical Tuxedo
administration console if the Tuxedo administrator didn't already have a web server in place. It was never
intended for large-scale, production website use � only for a system administrator or two.
19. Are there advantages or disadvantages to using BEA WebLogic over IBM WebSphere or vice
versa?
No. Both products are certified with PIA as of version 8.4 and work equally well. By offering both BEA
WebLogic and IBM WebSphere, we give our customers more choices and flexibility to run PeopleSoft in
their preferred environment.
21. Both BEA WebLogic and IBM WebSphere have the ability to plug into many different web
servers. Does PeopleSoft support the web servers that they plug into?
BEA and IBM provide plug-ins for many of the leading web servers. This allows the customer to use their
own HTTP web server and WebLogic�s or WebSphere�s Java servlet engine. PeopleSoft uses this
plug-in capability to support IIS. We have no reason to believe that there will be any issues with other web
servers that WebLogic or WebSphere are able to work with through their plug-in architecture, but
PeopleSoft GSC will not support these other web servers with PeopleTools 8.4
24. What HTTP servers and Java servlet engine combinations are supported with PeopleTools
8.4?
All popular http servers (reverse proxies) are supported. Please refer to the platforms database on
Customer Connection for specific information on current certified platforms. You may find this at
http://www.peoplesoft.com/corp/en/iou/platforms/index.asp
