Files: ofm_iam_generic_11.1.2.3.0_disk1_1of3.zip, ofm_iam_generic_11.1.2.3.0_disk1_2of3.zip, and
ofm_iam_generic_11.1.2.3.0_disk1_3of3.zip
2. Apply Oracle Database patch required for Oracle Identity Manager. Refer
here for more information about what patch to apply if needed. Given below are instructions to apply a patch in general. Always refer to the README.txt given along with the patch for exact instructions.
Example
Patch Number: 8545377
Fix: ORA-1780 RAISED WHEN CURSOR_ SHARING=FORCE
# Ensure database is shutdown.
# Set Oracle DB OPatch in Path
export PATH=$ORACLE_HOME/OPatch:$PATH
# Navigate inside the patch directory
cd <UNZIPPED_PATCH_LOCATION>/8545377
# Apply Patch
opatch apply
# Verify Patch
opatch lsinventory
# Start database.
3. Create the database schema using Oracle Repository Creation Utility 11.1.1.9.0. After unzipping the "ofm_rcu_linux_11.1.1.9.0_64_disk1_1of1.zip", navigate to "rcuHome/bin" directory and execute the rcu script.

8. Configure Database Security Store for an Oracle Identity and Access Management domain.
# Command to configure DB security store
$MW_HOME/oracle_common/common/bin/wlst.sh $MW_HOME/Oracle_IDM1/common/tools/configureSecurityStore.py -d $MW_HOME/user_projects/domains/$DOMAIN_NAME -c IAM -p Password1 -m create
# Example
/home/oracle/Oracle/Middleware/oracle_common/common/bin/wlst.sh /home/oracle/Oracle/Middleware/Oracle_IDM1/common/tools/configureSecurityStore.py -d /home/oracle/Oracle/Middleware/user_projects/domains/base_domain -c IAM -p Password1 -m create
# Validate DB Security Store
/home/oracle/Oracle/Middleware/oracle_common/common/bin/wlst.sh /home/oracle/Oracle/Middleware/Oracle_IDM1/common/tools/configureSecurityStore.py -d /home/oracle/Oracle/Middleware/user_projects/domains/base_domain -m validate
9. Configuring Oracle Identity Manager Server and Design Console. Start the ADMIN and SOA servers. To start the WebLogic Admin Server, execute the startWebLogic.sh script located in "$MW_HOME/user_projects/domains/oim_domain/bin" directory. In the same directory, execute "./startManagedWebLogic.sh soa_server1" to start the SOA server. To begin the configuration wizard, execute the config.sh located in "/home/oracle/Oracle/Middleware/Oracle_IDM1/bin" directory.

Troubleshooting
If you are seeing the following exception when starting the OIM server, you may need to increase the database processes and sessions:
Received exception while creating connection for pool "oimOperationsDB": Listener refused the connection with the following error:
ORA-12516, TNS:listener could not find available handler with matching protocol stack
Run the following SQL queries as SYS to adjust the number of database processes and sessions:
alter system set processes=300 scope=spfile;
alter system set sessions=474 scope=spfile;
Restart the entire stack.
I am attempting the same installation on Windows. I notice that you do not install Oracle Identity Management in addition to Oracle Identity and Access Management, instead, all you install is the SOA Suite for 11.1.1.9.0. Is there any requirement for Oracle Identity Management?
ReplyDeletePerhaps a better question might be; Do you only need Oracle Identity and Access Management?
