E-Business Suite sysadmins know that all of the good technology stack-related documentation is on Metalink.


Oracle MetaLink is about to undergo a few important changes.  If you haven’t already planned for them, you need to act now to avoid being locked out of MetaLink inadvertently:
  1. Ensure that your MetaLink account is associated with an active Customer System Identifier (CSI) number in your profile.  For details, see MetaLink Note 361177.1.
     
  2. Reregister your MetaLink account with your current email address.  Old Metalink userids (e.g. “JoeUser”) are now being replaced with email IDs (e.g. “joe.user@company.com”).   For details, see “Important Changes Coming For Your MetaLink Login ID – Please Read“

    For Oracle readers:  This change affects Oracle employees, too!
And, yes, I’m acutely aware of the irony here.  If you get locked out, you won’t be able to access the Metalink resources needed to reenable your account.  If that happens, just call Oracle Support directly.
