8.4 Verifying ODIP

Verify the Oracle Directory Integration Platform (ODIP) installation using the dipStatus command, which is located in the $ORACLE_HOME/bin/ directory.

Note:

You must set the WL_HOME and ORACLE_HOME environment variables before executing the dipStatus command.

The following is the syntax for the dipStatus command:

$ORACLE_HOME/bin/dipStatus -h HOST -p PORT -D wlsuser [-help]

  • -h | -host identifies the Oracle WebLogic Server where Oracle Directory Integration Platform is deployed.

  • -p | -port identifies the listening port of the Oracle WebLogic Managed Server where Oracle Directory Integration Platform is deployed.

  • -D | -wlsuser identifies the Oracle WebLogic Server login ID.

Note:

You will be prompted for the Oracle WebLogic Server login password. You cannot provide the password as a command-line argument.

Best security practice is to provide a password only in response to a prompt from the command. If you must execute dipStatus from a script, you can redirect input from a file containing the Oracle WebLogic Server password. Use file permissions to protect the file and delete it when it is no longer necessary.
