The following steps will help in adding a Middle Tier to an Existing R12 Instance.
Pre-Step : Configure the Node to be added with equivant Operating System and Kernel version as of the Primary Node.
Create the Users/Group as that was done to the Primary Node
Step 1: Make the File System of the Primary Node accessible on the Secondary Node
The following mount points must be present on the Secondary Node
COMMON_TOP
APPL_TOP
10.1.2 ORACLE HOME
10.1.3 ORACLE HOME
Step 2: Log on the Second Node and move to the COMMON_TOP/clone/bin
adclonectx.pl needs to be run with the option addnode with the context file as a parameter.
The context file will be of the first node.
Syntax : perl adclonectx.pl addNode contextfile=
This step will display the path of the new context file that got generated.
[aptest@node02 bin]$ perl adclonectx.pl addnode
contextfile=..../TEST_node01/appl/admin/TEST_node01.xml
....//apps/apps_st/comn/clone/bin
Classpath: ..../apps/apps_st/comn/clone/bin/
/home1/aptest/test/apps/apps_st/comn/clone/bin/../jre/bin/java

oracle.apps.ad.context.CloneContext -e
..../TEST_node01/appl/admin/TEST_node01.xml -addnode
Enter the APPS password : apps

Provide the values required for creation of the new APPL_TOP Context file.
Target hostname (virtual or normal) [node02]:
It is recommended that your inputs are validated by the program.
However you might choose not to validate your inputs under following circumstances:
-If cloning a context on source system for a remote system.
-If cloning a context on a machine where the ports are taken and you do not want to shutdown the services at this point.
-If cloning a context but the database it needs to connect is not available.
Do you want the inputs to be validated (y/n) [n] ?:
Target system service groups - enable Root Service Group [enabled] [enabled]:
Target system service groups - enable Web Entry Point Services [enabled] [enabled]:
Target system service groups - enable Web Application Services [enabled] [enabled]:
Target system service groups - enable Batch Processing Services [enabled] [disabled]:
Target system service groups - enable Other Service Group [disabled] [disabled]:
Do you want to preserve the Display set to inchmgmt101:0.0 (y/n) [y] ?:
Database port is 1526
Do you want the the target system to have the same port values as the source system (y/n) [y] ?:
Complete port information available at
..../apps_st/comn/clone/bin/out/TEST_node02/portpool.lst
Target system proxy hostname:www-proxy.us.test.com
Target system proxy port:80
UTL_FILE_DIR on database tier consists of the following directories.
1. /usr/tmp
2. /usr/tmp
3. /home1/ortest/test/db/tech_st/10.2.0/appsutil/outbound/TEST_node01
4. /usr/tmp
Choose a value which will be set as APPLPTMP value on the target node [1]:1
New context path and file name [..../apps/TEST_node02/appl/admin/TEST_node02.xml]:
Creating the new APPL_TOP Context file from : ..../ad/12.0.0/admin/template/adxmlctx.tmp

Check logfile ..../apps_st/comn/clone/bin/CloneContext_02061014.log for details.
[aptest@node02 bin]$
Note : Node 2 will act as a web node.
Step 3: On the Second Node move to the AD_TOP/bin directory
Run adconfig.sh with the context_file that got generated after Step2
[aptest@node02 admin]$ adconfig.sh
Enter the full path to the Context file: /home1/aptest/test/inst/apps/TEST_node02/appl/admin/TEST_node02.xml
Enter the APPS user password: AutoConfig is configuring the Applications environment...
AutoConfig will consider the custom templates if present.
Using CONFIG_HOME location : /home1/aptest/test/inst/apps/TEST_node02
Classpath : /home1/aptest/test/apps/apps_st/comn/java/lib/appsborg2.zip:

The log file for this session is located at: /home1/aptest/test/inst/apps/TEST_node02/admin/log/02061035/adconfig.log
[aptest@node02 admin]$
Step 4: Perform a Health Check
Shutdown the Middle Tier Components on Node1 and Start the Services on Node2
The webentry on the context files would be pointing to Node 2 and simillarly all the Agent Profile Option would have been marked with Node 2.
Later Node 1 can be made as a primary node by running autoconfig.
The Setup will a complete one with a Load Balancer in place , since there are two web nodes added and have Web Entry Point Services enabled.

The voice in my head may not be real , but they have some good ideas !!!
Fail Fast, Fail Forward, Fail Often, Fail Better , Standup Every Time
Every problem has at least one solution. Only some solutions are harder to find.
