Configure Multiple Email accounts in SOA 11g.

In SOA 10g we can configure multiple email accounts under ns_emails.xml and its simple.


But in 11g its completely different, for every email account you need deploy email driver.here are the complete steps you need to follow to achieve this.

1. Edit the deployment plan for email driver application (for example: ORACLE_SOA_HOME/communications/plans/usermessagingdriver-email_Plan.xml)

• Backup the original plan (ORACLE_SOA_HOME/communications/plans/usermessagingdriver-email_Plan.xml)
• Copy the plan to a location of your choice (to the same directory or any other directory), rename it to usermessagingdriver-email_Plan2.xml
• Open usermessagingdriver-email_Plan2.xml in any text editor, search an replace @DriverDeploymentName@ with whichever name you want to use (ensure you replace all instances of the name).
• Search and replace @DriverShortName@ with any name you like(ensure you replace all instances of the name).

          e.g.
          REPLACE                                           WITH
          @DriverDeploymentName@    ->        usermessagingdriver-email2
          @DriverShortName@              ->        email2

    @RunAsPrincipalName@       ->        OracleSystemUser

• Save this file.

2. Start Oracle Enterprise Manager Fusion Middleware Control. Navigate to WebLogic Domain > >
3. Right click on , then select Application Deployment > Deploy...

4. The Deploy Java EE Application Window appears, in the step1 of 4, enter the location of the .ear file and Deployment Plan

e.g.
    EAR location: ORACLE_SOA_HOME/communications/applications/sdpmessagingdriver-email.ear
    Deployment Plan: ORACLE_SOA_HOME/communications/plans/usermessagingdriver-email_Plan2.xml

5. In Select Target, select , click Next.

6. In Step 3 of 4, Application Attributes page,

• Enter an application name. The application name must exactly match the string used in the Deployment Plan. If it does not, the deployment and activation fails.
• Modify the context root for email-mbeanlifecycle.war web module, the default is sdpmessagingdriver/email-mbeanlifecycle. You have to change it to a different value as this one is already used by the existing email driver application.

          e.g.
          Application Name: sdpmessagingdriver-email2
          Context root for email-mbeanlifecycle.war : sdpmessagingdriver2/email-mbeanlifecycle

7. Click Next, then Deploy

Restart SOA server and open em console, you find new email driver that you deployed under User messaging service. 

select usermessagingdriver-email2 driver properties ,configure your email account.
