This chapter explains how to install Oracle Identity Manager on UNIX or Linux. Refer to the Oracle Identity Manager Release Notes for more information on the supported UNIX or Linux platforms. You must install the Oracle Identity Manager server on systems running the application server. Oracle Identity Manager components such as the Remote Manager can be installed on separate systems. Each component has its own installer.
Note:
The default logging package included by the base RedHat UNIX or Linux installation causes installation problems and exceptions for Oracle Identity Manager. Before installing Oracle Identity Manager on RedHat Linux, delete the commons-logging-1.0.2 library from the base operating system installation. The commons-logging-1.0.2 library is typically installed with any standard RedHat installation. Also, be sure to delete the symbolic links in the /usr/share/java/ directory. Deleting these symbolic links will force Oracle Identity Manager to use its own internal logger jar files during installation.This chapter contains the following topics:
As part of the installation, the Oracle Identity Manager installer loads a schema into your database. You only install the database schema once. It is installed the first time you run the Oracle Identity Manager installer. Each subsequent time you run the installer to deploy other Oracle Identity Manager components you enter information about the database connection to configure the component for the same schema. Contact your database administrator (DBA) for details on the particulars of your database.
Note:
During the schema installation, a corresponding log file is created under the <XL_HOME>/logs/ directory.The Oracle Identity Manager documentation is installed automatically under the <XL_HOME> directory. No special input is required. A full documentation set is installed with each Oracle Identity Manager component
To install Oracle Identity Manager on the Oracle Application Server running on UNIX or Linux, you must install as the same non-root user that installed the Oracle Application Server. Do not attempt to install Oracle Identity Manager on the Oracle Application Server running on UNIX or Linux as the root user.
Oracle Identity Manager for UNIX or Linux is installed through a console mode installer, which supports the following two input methods:
Choose from among list of options
Each option is numbered and accompanied by square brackets ([ ]). To select an option, enter its number. Once selected, the associated square brackets display an X ([X]).
Enter information at a prompt
To enter information at the prompt, enter the information and press the Enter key. To accept a default value—default values are enclosed in brackets after a prompt—simply press the Enter key to accept them.
The installer contains logical sections (panels).
When you have selected an item from a list of options, enter the number zero (0) to indicate that the desired item has been selected.
To move to the next installation panel, enter the number one (1).
To go back to the previous panel, enter the number two (2).
To cancel the installation, enter the number three (3).
To redisplay the current panel, enter the number five (5).
Note:
Before installing Oracle Identity Manager you must set the JAVA_HOME variable to <ORACLE_HOME>/jdk/bin.To install Oracle Identity Manager server on UNIX or Linux:
Note:
During the installation process, an unused log file named log.conf is created in the <XL_HOME>/xellerate/config/ directory. You can safely ignore this file.Insert the Oracle Identity Manager Installation CD into your CD-ROM drive.
From the console, change directory (cd) to the installServer directory on the installation CD and run the install_server.sh file using the following command:
sh install_server.sh
The installer starts in console mode.
Note:
If you are not installing Oracle Identity Manager from distributed media (CD), you must set the execute bit of all shell scripts under in the installServer directory. To set the execute bit for all shell scripts recursively, cd to the installServer directory and run the following command:# chmod -R u+x *.sh
Choose a language by entering a number from the list of languages.
Enter 0 to apply the language selection. The Welcome Message panel appears.
Enter 1 on the Welcome Message panel to display the next panel.
The Admin User Information panel appears.
Enter a password you want to use for the Oracle Identity Manager Administrator, confirm the password by entering it again, and then enter 1 to move to the next panel.
The OIM Application Options panel appears.
Enter 1 on the OIM Application Options panel to display the next panel.
The Select the Oracle Identity Manager application to install panel appears.
Select the application to install:
Enter 1 for Oracle Identity Manager.
Enter 2 for the Oracle Identity Manager with Audit and Compliance Module.
Enter 0 when you are finished to apply the application selection. The Target directory panel appears.
On the Target directory panel, enter the path to the directory where you want to install Oracle Identity Manager. For example, enter /opt/oracle/. Enter 1 to move to the next panel.
Important:
Do not install Oracle Identity Manager on top of an existing Oracle Identity Manager installation. Use a different Oracle Identity Manager home directory. If you want to reuse the same directory name for the Oracle Identity Manager home directory backup your previous Oracle Identity Manager home by renaming the original directory.All Oracle Identity Manager components must be installed in different home directories. For example, you cannot install the Remote Manager in the same directory where the Oracle Identity Manager server is installed.If the directory does not exist, you are asked to create it. Enter y for yes.
The Database Server Selection panel appears.
Note:
To install against an existing database, verify that the version of Oracle Identity Manager you are installing is certified with your existing database version. Refer to the Oracle Identity Manager Release Notes to confirm the certified configurations.When Oracle Identity Manager is installed against an existing database, a warning message will appear indicating the database schema already exists and instructing you to copy the .xldatabasekey file from the existing Oracle Identity Manager installation to the new to the new <XL_HOME>/xellerate/config directory after you complete the installation process.
Create the new <XL_HOME>/xellerate/config directory if it does not already exist.
On the Database Server Selection panel, specify the type of database you are using.
Enter 1 for Oracle.
Enter 0 when you are finished.
Enter 1 to move to the next panel.
