9 Managing System Configuration Attributes

This chapter describes attributes that control the LDAP server. See Chapter 41, "Managing Replication Configuration Attributes" for information about attributes that control the replication server.

This chapter contains the following topics:

9.1 Introduction to Managing System Configuration Attributes

This introduction contains the following topics:

9.1.1 What are Configuration Attributes?

Most Oracle Internet Directory configuration information is stored in the directory itself. The information is stored as attributes of specific configuration entries. You must have superuser privileges to set system configuration attributes.

Some configuration attributes are specific to an individual instance of the Oracle Internet Directory server. Instance-specific attributes are located in the instance-specific configuration entry, a specific subentry of the Oracle Internet Directory instance entry. Figure 8-1, "DIT Showing Two Instance-Specific Configuration Entries" show s the location of these entries in the DIT.

Some configuration attributes are shared by all Oracle Internet Directory server instances in a WebLogic Server domain that are connected to the same database. Shared attributes reside in the DSA Configuration entry. Replication-specific attributes reside in the Replica Subentry, Replication Configuration, and Replication Agreement Entry.

Some attributes reside in the DSE Root. Most of those are non-configurable.

You can manage all the configuration attributes from the command-line. In addition, many of the configuration attributes have specific, task-oriented management interfaces in Oracle Enterprise Manager Fusion Middleware Control or Oracle Directory Services Manager. You can also use the Data Browser feature of Oracle Directory Services Manager to manage the entries directly.

9.1.2 What are Operational Attributes?

Do not confuse configuration attributes with operational attributes. Operational attributes have special meaning to the directory server and they are used for storing information needed for processing by the server itself or for holding other data maintained by the server that is not explicitly provided by clients. These are attributes that are maintained by the server and either reflect information the server manages about an entry or affect server operation.

Operational attributes are not returned by a search operation unless you specifically request them by name or with the "+" option in the search request. See Section 13.3.2, "Listing Operational Attributes by Using ldapsearch" for more information.

Examples of operational attributes include the time stamp for an entry and the state values needed for enforcing password policies, described in Section 28.1.6, "Password Policy-Related Operational Attributes." You cannot modify operational attributes.

9.1.3 Attributes of the Instance-Specific Configuration Entry

During installation, Oracle Identity Management 11g Installer creates an instance-specific configuration entry for the first Oracle Internet Directory instance. It copies default values from a read-only entry under cn=configset0. (You can specify different values for the SSL port and non-SSL during the install.)

The DN of an instance-specific configuration entry has the form:

cn=componentname,cn=osdldapd,cn=subconfigsubentry

For example, if the component name for a server instance is oid1,then the DIT of the instance-specific configuration entry would be:

cn=oid1,cn=osdldapd,cn=subconfigsubentry

Table 9-1 lists the attributes of the instance-specific configuration entry. The Update Mechanism column contains the following abbreviations:

9.2 Managing System Configuration Attributes by Using Fusion Middleware Control

You can view and set most of the configuration attributes for an Oracle directory server by using Oracle Enterprise Manager Fusion Middleware Control.

This section contains the following topics:

9.2.1 Configuring Server Properties

You can configure most of the attributes in the instance-specific configuration entry by using the Oracle Internet Directory Server Properties pages of Fusion Middleware Control., as follows:

  1. Select Administration, then Server Properties from the Oracle Internet Directory menu.

  2. Select General, Performance, SASL, Statistics, or Logging, depending on which parameters you want to configure.

  3. After changing the configuration, choose Apply.

The correspondence between server properties and configuration attributes on the General tab of the Server Properties page is shown in Table 9-4.

9.2.3 Configuring Other Parameters

You can configure SSL parameters by using the Oracle Internet Directory SSL Configuration Page. See Section 26.2, "Configuring SSL by Using Fusion Middleware Control." You must restart the server for SSL configuration changes to take effect.

You can configure Audit attributes by using the Oracle Internet Directory Audit Policy Settings page. See Section 22.2, "Managing Auditing by Using Fusion Middleware Control."

9.3 Managing System Configuration Attributes by Using WLST

A managed bean (MBean) is a Java object that represents a JMX manageable resource in a distributed environment, such as an application, a service, a component or a device. The WebLogic server uses custom MBeans as its interface to OPMN-managed components, such as Oracle Internet Directory. You can use the WebLogic Scripting Tool (wlst) in the Oracle Common home to manage the attributes of the Oracle Internet Directory instance-specific configuration entry that have Oracle Enterprise Manager Fusion Middleware Control interfaces.

Note:

WLST manages Oracle Internet Directory through its SSL port. The Oracle Internet Directory SSL port must be configured for no authentication or server authentication. If the Oracle Internet Directory SSL port is configured for mutual authentication, you will not be able to change Oracle Internet Directory attributes by using WLST. See Section 26.1.3, "SSL Authentication Modes."

You use WLST as follows:

  1. Invoke WLST

    ORACLE_COMMON_HOME/common/bin/wlst.sh
    
  2. Connect to the WebLogic server

    connect('username', 'password', 'localhost:7001')
    
  3. To navigate to the custom mbean tree, type:

    custom()
    

    at the wlst prompt.

  4. To get a one-level list of the MBean in the custom MBean tree, type:

    ls()
    

    In the ls() output, you see two domains that contain MBeans that are related to Oracle Internet Directory configuration. The domains are oracle.as.management.mbeans.register and oracle.as.oid.

  5. To get to a domain, use the cd() command. For example:

    cd('oracle.as.management.mbeans.register')
    

    or

    cd('oracle.as.oid')
    

    If you type ls(), you see a list of MBeans in that domain. There are three MBeans related to Oracle Internet Directory configuration under oracle.as.management.mbeans.register and two under oracle.as.oid. Table 9-7lists them.

    Table 9-7 Oracle Internet Directory-Related MBeans

    MBean Name MBean Domain MBean Format in ls() Output

    Root Proxy MBean

    oracle.as.management.mbeans.register
    
    oracle.as.management.mbeans.register:type=component,name=COMPONENT_NAME,instance=INSTANCE
    

    Non-SSL Port MBean

    oracle.as.management.mbeans.register
    
    oracle.as.management.mbeans.register:type=component.nonsslport,name=nonsslport1,instance=INSTANCE,component=COMPONENT_NAME
    

    Audit MBean

    oracle.as.management.mbeans.register
    
    oracle.as.management.mbeans.register:type=component.auditconfig,name=auditconfig1,instance=INSTANCE,component=COMPONENT_NAME
    

    SSL Port MBean

    oracle.as.oid
    
    oracle.as.oid:type=component.sslconfig,name=sslport1,instance=INSTANCE,component=COMPONENT_NAME
    

    Key Store MBean

    oracle.as.oid
    
    oracle.as.oid:type=component.keystore,name=keystore,instance=INSTANCE,component=COMPONENT_NAME
    

    INSTANCE and COMPONENT_NAME refer to the Oracle instance where your Oracle Internet Directory component is located and the name of the component, respectively.

    Note:

    The Audit MBean is shown here for completeness, but you use different commands for managing auditing by using wlst. See "Managing Auditing by Using WLST".

  6. To get to a specific MBean, type:

    cd('MBEAN_NAME') 
    

    For example, if you are in the domain oracle.as.management.mbeans.register, and you want to manage the Root Proxy MBean for Oracle Internet Directory component oid1 in Oracle instance instance1, type:

    cd('oracle.as.management.mbeans.register:type=OID,name=oid1,instance=instance1')
    
  7. Once you have navigated to the desired MBean, you can get the current value for an attribute by typing:

    get('ATTRIBUTE_NAME') 
    

    For example, to get the value for orclserverprocs, type:

    get('orclserverprocs') 
    
  8. Before you make any changes to attributes, you must ensure that the MBean has the current server configuration. To do that, load the configuration from Oracle Internet Directory server to the mbean. Type:

    invoke('load',jarray.array([],java.lang.Object),jarray.array([],java.lang.String)) 
    
  9. Then you can use the set command to set a specific attribute. Type:

    set('ATTRIBUTE_NAME', ATTRIBUTE_VALUE)
    

    For example, to set orclserverprocs = 12, type:

    set('orclserverprocs', 12) 
    
  10. After making changes, you must save the MBean configuration to the Oracle Internet Directory server. Type:

    invoke('save',jarray.array([],java.lang.Object),jarray.array([],java.lang.String))
    

9.4 Managing System Configuration Attributes by Using LDAP Tools

From the command line, you can modify most system configuration attributes by using ldapmodify and list most system configuration by using ldapsearch.

9.4.1 Setting System Configuration Attributes by Using ldapmodify

You can modify most attributes in Table 9-1, Table 9-2, and Table 9-3 by using the command-line:

ldapmodify -D cn=orcladmin -q -p portNum -h hostname -f ldifFile 

The contents of the LDIF file depends on the DN and the operation being performed.

The LDIF file for changing the value of the orclgeneratechangelog attribute in the instance-specific entry to 1 would be:

dn: cn=componentname,cn=osdldapd,cn=subconfigsubentry
changetype: modify
replace: orclgeneratechangelog
orclgeneratechangelog: 1

The LDIF file for adding the orclinmemfiltprocess attribute to the DSA configuration entry would be:

dn: cn=dsaconfig, cn=configsets, cn=oracle internet directory
changetype: modify
add: orclinmemfiltprocess
orclinmemfiltprocess: (objectclass=inetorgperson)(orclisenabled=TRUE)

Notes:

  • In 11g Release 1 (11.1.1), consecutive settings of orcldebugflag and of orcloptracklevel are additive.

  • Restart the server after changing orclskiprefinsql, orclskewedattribute, orclserverprocs, orcldispthreads, orclmaxcc, orclpluginworkers, or any attribute with a name that begins with "orclssl" or "orclsasl."

  • After changing orclnonsslport or orclsslport, restart the server and run opmnctl updatecomponentregistration, as described in Section 8.3.4, "Updating the Component Registration of an Oracle Instance by Using opmnctl."

9.5 Managing System Configuration Attributes by Using ODSM Data Browser

Oracle Enterprise Manager Fusion Middleware Control is the recommended graphical user interface for managing system configuration attributes. You can also use ODSM to manage system configuration attributes, which can be useful if Fusion Middleware Control is not available or if you must modify an attribute that has no Fusion Middleware Control interface.

See Section 13.2, "Managing Entries by Using Oracle Directory Services Manager" for detailed instructions for changing the attributes of a directory entry. The following sections explain how to get to the entries that contain system configuration attributes in ODSM.
