Patching OIM 11.1.1.5.x to 11.1.1.5.6

Description
This post demonstrates how to patch OIM from 11.1.1.1.5 to 11.1.1.5.6. Patches are cumulative. For example, the OIM 11.1.1.5.6 patch contains the bug fixes from OIM 11.1.1.5.0 - 11.1.1.5.5 patches. You can download the patch at My Oracle Support

Patch Number: 14760839
Bundle Name: Oracle Identity Management Suite BP patch of 11.1.1.5.2
The bundle contains patches for the following products:
- OIM 11.1.1.5.6
- OAM 11.1.1.5.5
- OES 11.1.1.5.4
- OAAM 11.1.5.2

Our main focus will be the patch for OIM 11.1.1.5.6. The other patches do not need to be applied if you are only patching OIM.

Create Backup
Before applying the patch, it is highly recommeded to create a backup for the following items:
-OIM, MDS, and SOA database schemas. Simple export is sufficient.
-"<IDM_HOME>" directory. E.g. /home/oracle/Oracle/Middleware/Oracle_IDM1/
-WebLogic Domain directory. E.g. /home/oracle/Oracle/Middleware/user_projects/domains/oim_domain/

Applying the OIM 11.1.1.5.6 Patch
Unpack the bundle file.
Only the WebLogic Administrator must be running.
The SOA patch 13106312 for SOA 11.1.1.5.0 must be applied. Verify that your opatch is 11.1.0.8.2 or later and verify the OUI Inventory.

#Include the SOA OPatch in Path
export PATH=/home/oracle/Oracle/Middleware/Oracle_SOA1/OPatch:$PATH
#Set the ORACLE_HOME to the SOA Directory
export ORACLE_HOME=/home/oracle/Oracle/Middleware/Oracle_SOA1
#Check OPatch Version
opatch version
#Verify the OUI Inventory
opatch lsinventory
#Change directory to where the SOA patch is located
cd ~/patches/13106312
#Apply the SOA Patch
opatch apply

To apply the OIM Patch, execute the following commands:

cd ~/patches/14760839/OIM/14766143
export PATH=/home/oracle/Oracle/Middleware/Oracle_IDM1/OPatch:$PATH
export ORACLE_HOME=/home/oracle/Oracle/Middleware/Oracle_IDM1
opatch apply

Executing the “patch_oim_wls.sh” Script
Navigate to the “<IDM_HOME>/server/bin” directory and modify the “patch_oim_wls.profile” file. Add the following information to the “patch_oim_wls.profile” and adjust the variable accordingly:

ant_home=/home/oracle/Oracle/Middleware/modules/org.apache.ant_1.7.1
