Oracle Fusion Applications 11.1.2.9 Installation Part 5

Part 5 Provisioning Oracle Identity Management
The Oracle Identity Management Provisioning Wizard and related tools were developed to automate Oracle Identity Management Provisioning and reduce the time required to configure Oracle Identity Management for Oracle Fusion Applications.


5.1 Creating an Oracle Identity Management Provisioning Profile
Before you can perform provisioning, you must provide information about your topology to the Oracle Identity Management Provisioning Wizard. Once you have provided all the necessary input, the wizard will create a provisioning file called provisioning.rsp that you use to perform the provisioning operation.

5.2 Creating a Provisioning Profile
Before running the provisioning tool, set the following environment variables:
  • Set JAVA_HOME to: /u02/jdk6
  • On UNIX systems, set the DISPLAY environment variable to an active and authorized display.
To start the Oracle Identity Management Provisioning Wizard, execute the following commands from: IDMLCM_HOME/provisioning/bin, where IDMLCM_HOME is the place where you installed the Oracle Home Directory for Oracle Identity Management, using the installation script for the Oracle Identity Management Provisioning Wizard and Oracle Identity Management Patching Tools
Login to host idm01 with applmgr user
cd /u01/app/idmlcm/Oracle_IDMLCM1/provisioning/bin
./idmProvisioningWizard.sh


The Welcome page provides a brief overview of the wizard and lists some requirements that must be met.

5.3 Introduction to Performing Oracle Identity Management Provisioning

After you create the provisioning response file, you use it to provision an Oracle Identity Management environment.
There are eight stages to provisioning. These stages must be run in the following order:
  1. Preverify - This checks that each of the servers being used in the topology satisfies the minimum requirements of the software being installed and configured.
  2. Install - This installs all of the software and related patches present in Provisioning Repository.
  3. Preconfigure - This does the following:
o    Creates OID and seeds it with Users/Groups.
o    Creates OVD
o    Configures ODSM
o    Creates the WebLogic Domain
o    Creates OHS instance
  1. Configure - This does the following:
o    Associates the Policy Store to OID
o    Starts managed servers as necessary
o    Associates OAM with OID
o    Configure OIM
  1. Configure-Secondary - This does the following:
o    Integrates Weblogic Domain with Web Tier
o    Register Web Tier with domain
o    Integrate OAM and OIM
  1. Postconfigure - This does the following:
o    Register OID with Weblogic Domain
o    SSL Enable OID and OVD
o    Tune OID
o    Run OIM Reconciliation
o    Configure UMS Mail Server
o    Generate OAM Keystore
o    Configure OIF
o    Configure WebGate
  1. Startup - This starts up all components in the topology
  2. Validate - This performs a number of checks on the built topology to ensure that everything is working as it should be.
You specify the stage using the -target option to the runIDMProvisioning.sh. Each stage must be completed before the next stage can begin. Failure of a stage will necessitate a cleanup and restart.
Provisioning is accomplished by using either the command line or the Oracle Identity Management Provisioning Wizard.

5.4 Performing Oracle Identity Management Provisioning
To use the command line, you must run the command runIDMProvisioning.sh or runIDMProvisioning.bat a number of times, specifying the provisioning stage with the -target option. You MUST complete each command, in order, before running the next command.
Before running the provisioning tool, set the following environment variables:
  • Set JAVA_HOME to: REPOSITORY_LOCATION/jdk6
  • Check whether the TNS_ADMIN environment variable is set on your Oracle Internet Directory hosts.
  •  If TNS_ADMIN is set, unset it unset TNS_ADMIN
The command syntax for the provisioning tool:
runIDMProvisioning.sh -responseFile RESPONSE_FILE -target STAGE
Where:
RESPONSE_FILE is the provisioning response file. You specified the file name and directory on the Summary page when you ran the wizard to create the file. The default value is IDMLCM_HOME/provisioning/bin/provisioning.rsp on UNIX 
STAGE is one of the stages mentioned in 5.3

5.5 Identity Management Installation Options
Select Provision an Identity Management Environment to use an existing provisioning response file to provision the environment.
If your Oracle Identity Management topology spans multiple hosts, you must make the provisioning response file accessible to all hosts (preferrably by including it on shared storage) and run the provisioning tool on each host other than the primordial host, where the Oracle Identity Management Provisioning Wizard is running.
Preverify- During this stage, the Oracle Identity Management Provisioning Wizard checks for the basic prerequisites, such as free disk space, port availability, and Database connections.

Login to host idm01 with applmgr user

BUILD SUCCESSFUL
Total time: 1 minute 55 seconds
 
Successfully finished validate. 

5.6 Validating the Administration Server
http://idm01.mycompany.com/console and logging in as the user weblogic_idm
Verify that all managed servers are showing a status of Running.


Verify that you can access Oracle Enterprise Manager Fusion Middleware Control by accessing the URL:
http://idm01.mycompany.com/em and logging in as the user weblogic_idm


5.7 Validating the Oracle Access Manager Configuration
To validate that this has completed correctly.
  1. Access the OAM console at: http://idm01.mycompany.com/oamconsole
  2. Log in as the Oracle Access Manager user.
  3. Click the System Configuration tab
  4. Expand Access Manager Settings - SSO Agents - OAM Agents.
  5. Click the open folder icon, then click Search.
  6. You should see the WebGate agents Webgate_IDMWebgate_IDM_11g and IAMSuiteAgent.



5.8 Validating Oracle Directory Services Manager (ODSM)Validating Browser Connection to ODSM Site
Follow these steps to validate that you can connect the Oracle Directory Services Manager site in a browser:
 In a web browser, verify that you can connect to Oracle Directory Services Manager (ODSM) at:

 http://idm01.mycompany.com:port/odsm

For example, on IDMHOST1, enter this URL, where 7005 is ODSM_PORT

http://idm01.mycompany.com:7005/odsm

In a web browser, verify that you can access ODSM through the load balancer address:

http://idm01.mycompany.com/odsm


5.9 Validating ODSM Connections to Oracle Internet Directory
Validate that Oracle Directory Services Manager can create connections to Oracle Internet Directory.
Create a connection to the Oracle Internet Directory on each ODSM instance separately. Even though ODSM is clustered, the connection details are local to each node. Proceed as follows:
Launch Oracle Directory Services Manager from IDMHOST1:

http://idm01.mycompany.com:7005/odsm

Create a connection to the Oracle Internet Directory virtual host by providing the following information in ODSM:
o    Server: OIDSTORE.mycompany.com
o    Port: 636 (LDAP_LBR_SSL_PORT)
o    Enable the SSL option
o    User: cn=orcladmin
o    Password: ldap-password

Create a connection to the Oracle Internet Directory virtual host by providing the corresponding information in ODSM




5.10 Validating Oracle Identity ManagerValidating the Oracle Internet Directory Instances
To validate the Oracle Internet Directory instances, ensure that you can connect to each Oracle Internet Directory instance and the load balancing router using these commands:

Note:
Ensure that the following environment variables are set before using ldapbind:
·         ORACLE_HOME (set to IDM_BASE/products/dir/idm)
·         OID_ORACLE_INSTANCE
·         PATH - The following directory locations should be in your PATH:
ORACLE_HOME/bin
ORACLE_HOME/ldap/bin
ORACLE_HOME/ldap/admin
ldapbind -h idm01.mycompany.com -p 3060 -D "cn=orcladmin" -q
ldapbind -h idm01.mycompany.com -p 3131-D "cn=orcladmin" -q -U 1


Note:
The -q option prompts the user for a password. LDAP Tools have been modified to disable the options -w password and -P password when the environment variable LDAP_PASSWORD_PROMPTONLY is set to TRUE or 1. Use this feature whenever possible.

Validating SSL Connectivity
This section is applicable only for UNIX.
You can manually verify that the SSL connection has been set up correctly by generating a wallet and then using that wallet to access Oracle Internet Directory. Proceed as follows:
Execute the command
cd IDM_BASE/products/dir/oracle_common/bin
./SSLClientConfig.sh -component cacert
providing the following inputs:
·         LDAP host name: Name of the Oracle Internet Directory server containing the Domain Certificate
·         LDAP port: Port used to access Oracle Internet Directory (OID_LDAP_PORT), for example: 3060
·         LDAP User: Oracle Internet Directory admin user, for example: cn=orcladmin
·         Password: Oracle Internet Directory admin user password
·         SSL Domain for CA: This is IDMDomain.
·         Password for truststore: This is the password you want to assign to your wallet.
When the command executes, it generates wallets in the directory IDM_BASE/products/dir/idm/rootCA/keystores/common


Now that you have a wallet, you can test that authentication is working by executing the command:

ldapbind -h LDAPHOST1.mycompany.com -p 3131 -U 2 -D cn=orcladmin -q -W "file:IDM_BASE/products/dir/idm/rootCA/keystores/common" -Q

You will be prompted for your Oracle Internet Directory password and for the wallet password. If the bind is successful, the SSL connection has been set up correctly.


Validating Oracle Identity Manager
Validate the Oracle Identity Manager Server Instance by bringing up the Oracle Identity Manager Console in a web browser. at:
http://idm01.mycompany.com:14000/oim/
Log in using the xelsysadm username and password.


Validating Oracle SOA Suite Instance from the Web Tier
Validate Oracle SOA Suite by accessing the URL:
http://idm01.mycompany.com:8001/soa-infra
and logging in using the xelsysadm username and password.



5.11 Starting All Servers and Stopping All Servers
Provisioning created a file called startall.sh and stopall.sh to start/stop everything in the correct order on host IDM01
If you want to start the services on a single host, execute the command on that host.
Before invoking this script, set JAVA_HOME to JAVA_HOME.
During exectution you will be prompted to enter the Weblogic and Node Manager administrator passwords.
The script starts the servers in the following order:
1.       Node Manager1
2.       AdminServer
3.       wls_ods1
4.       wls_soa1
5.       wls_oim1
6.       wls_oam1
7.       wls_oif1
8.       ohs1
9.       oid1

The script to stop all servers is stopall.sh .
Before invoking this script, set JAVA_HOME to JAVA_HOME.
During execution you will be prompted to enter the Weblogic and Node Manager administrator passwords.

5.12 Performing Backups of Installation and Configuration
It is an Oracle best practices recommendation to create a backup after successfully completing the installation and configuration of each tier, or at another logical point. Create a backup after verifying that the installation so far is successful. This is a quick backup for the express purpose of immediate restoration in case of problems or failures occurs in later steps. You can discard this backup when the enterprise deployment setup is complete. After the enterprise deployment setup is complete, you can initiate the regular deployment-specific Backup and Recovery process.

Following are the main components for backup
a.    Backing Up Middleware Home
b.   Backing up Oracle Internet Directory
c.    Backing Up the Database
d.   Backing Up the WebLogic Domain
e.   Backing Up the Web Tier
