When we upgraded to eBiz apps 11.x, which requires OAS, I became the admin
for that stuff.
It is a headache.
Configuration and setup is poorly documented.
Anything you want to do that you haven't done before will likely require
several SR's.
eg. I setup SSO (single sign on) on eBiz apps list year, to work in
conjunction with
Active Directory.
That was extremely time consuming, required many hours of testing to figure
out
which docs were right, which were wrong, and to document the procedures.
Everything touches OAS when you have an app that depends on it.
Have fun!
