This chapter describes how to install Oracle Identity Manager on a computer running UNIX or Linux in a nonclustered installation.

You must install the Oracle Identity Manager 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.
This chapter discusses the following topics:
The following is a list of prerequisites and notes for installing Oracle Identity Manager on UNIX or Linux:
The Oracle Identity Manager Installer program requires at least 200 MB of free space in the home directory of the user installing Oracle Identity Manager. Check the /etc/passwd file to determine the home directory. Note that you cannot work around this requirement by changing the value of the $HOME variable.
There must be at least 200 MB of free space in the /var/tmp directory.
Before installing Oracle Identity Manager, you must set the JAVA_HOME and PATH variables by following the procedure specific to the operating system that you use. See "Setting Environment Variables" for instructions.
The default logging package included by the base RedHat 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, ensure that you 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.
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 then back up your previous Oracle Identity Manager home by renaming the original directory.
Furthermore, 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 Oracle Identity Manager is installed.
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. If required, contact your database administrator (DBA).
Note:
During the schema installation, a log file is created in the
OIM_HOME/logs directory.The Oracle Identity Manager documentation is installed automatically in the OIM_HOME directory. No special input is required. A full documentation set is installed with each Oracle Identity Manager component.
Oracle Identity Manager for UNIX or Linux is installed through a console mode installer, which supports the following two input methods:
Choose from among a list of options
Each option is numbered and accompanied by brackets ([ ]). To select an option, enter its number. Once selected, the associated brackets display an X ([X]).
Enter information at a prompt.
To enter information at the prompt, enter the information and press Enter. To accept a default value—default values are enclosed in brackets after a prompt—simply press Enter to accept them.
The installer contains logical sections (panels).
When you have selected an item from a list of options, enter zero (0) to indicate that the desired item has been selected.
To move to the next installation panel, enter 1.
To go back to the previous panel, enter 2.
To cancel the installation, enter 3.
To redisplay the current panel, enter 5.
To install Oracle Identity Manager on UNIX or Linux:
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 by using the following command:
sh install_server.sh
Note:
If you are not installing Oracle Identity Manager from distributed media (CD), you must set the execute bit of all shell scripts in the installServer directory. To set the execute bit for all shell scripts recursively, cd to the installServer directory and run the following command:find . -name "*.sh" -exec chmod u+x {} \;
The installer starts in console mode.
Choose a language by entering a number from the list of languages.
Enter 0 to apply the language selection. The Welcome Message panel is displayed.
Enter 1 on the Welcome Message panel to display the next panel.
The Admin User Information panel is displayed.
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 is displayed.
Enter 1 on the OIM Application Options panel to display the next panel.
The Select the Oracle Identity Manager application to install panel is displayed.
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 and then enter 1 to move to the next section. The Target directory panel is displayed.
On the Target directory panel, complete one of the sub-steps that follow:
Enter the path to the directory where you want to install Oracle Identity Manager, for example, /opt/oracle/.
Enter 1 to move to the next panel.
If the directory does not exist, you are asked to create it. Enter y, for yes. The Database Server Selection panel is displayed.
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. See Oracle Identity Manager Readme 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 OIM_HOME/xellerate/config directory after you complete the installation process.
Create the new OIM_HOME/xellerate/config directory if it does not already exist.
Specify the type of database that you are using:
Enter 1 to select Oracle Database.
Enter 2 to select Microsoft SQL Server.
Enter 0 to finish.
Enter 1 to move to the next panel.
The Database Information panel is displayed.
Enter your database information:
Enter the database host name or IP address.
Enter the port number, or accept the default.
Enter the SID for the database name.
Enter the database user name for the account that Oracle Identity Manager uses to connect to the database.
Enter the password for the database account that Oracle Identity Manager uses to connect to the database.
Enter 1 to move to the next panel.
The Authentication Information panel is displayed.
Select the authentication mode for the Oracle Identity Manager Web application.
Enter 1 for Oracle Identity Manager Default Authentication.
Enter 2 for SSO Authentication.
Enter 0 when you are finished.

If you selected Yes, enter the cluster name at the prompt.
Enter 1 to move to the next section.
The Application Server Information panel is displayed.
Note:
The next steps in procedure are for non-clustered, WebSphere-based Oracle Identity Manager installations only. Refer to "Deploying Oracle Identity Manager in a Clustered WebSphere Configuration" for information about installing in a clustered WebSphere environment.Enter the application server information at the prompts:
