E-PB: How To Get Verity for PeopleTools 8.50 [ID 949230.1]


In version 8.50, Verity is not included within PeopleTools' package. PeopleSoft PeopleTools and PeopleBooks use Verity to implement the application's inner searching.

Install Verity after installing PeopleTools, and before the database is created.  Install Verity on all of the machines where the Application Server, Batch Server, and the Web Server have been setup.

Download Verity for PT 8.50  “PeopleSoft Enterprise PeopleTools 8.50 Verity” from Oracle’s e-delivery at http://edelivery.oracle.com

Or
Download it from the PeopleSoft FTP site at ftp://ftp.peoplesoft.com/outgoing/ptools/verity/ver621/

And

Please refer to the “Task 4-4: Installing the Verity Integration Kit” in PeopleTools_8.50_installation_Oracle.pdf.

Download the "PeopleTools_8.50_installation_Oracle.pdf." from the http://edelivery.oracle.com site.




When installing, use install keys from here:
The install document you will be using is PeopleTools_8.50_Installation_Oracle.pdf.  It gives excellent step-by-step instructions on everything you need to do to install PeopleTools as well as the HRMS application.  It is somewhat of a generic document, meant for PeopleTools as well as many other applications you might want to install.  HRMS is only one of the applications it talks about.
Download the PDF from the Oracle EDelivery site.  When you see that it is a 700 page install document, you’ll realize what you’ve gotten yourself into.  You will have to go through most of it.
Ok, now here’s a high-level summary of suggested steps :
  1. Install Oracle database

  6. Install BEA Weblogic CD
  7. Configure App Server
  8. Install and Configure PIA
