B Oracle Identity Manager Configuration Screens

This appendix describes the screens of the Oracle Identity Manager 11g Configuration Wizard that enables you to configure Oracle Identity Manager Server, Oracle Identity Manager Design Console, and Oracle Identity Manager Remote Manager.

This appendix contains the following topics:

B.1 Welcome

The Welcome screen is displayed each time you start the Oracle Identity Manager Configuration Wizard.

Figure B-1 Welcome Screen

Description of Figure B-1 follows
Description of "Figure B-1 Welcome Screen"

You can use the Oracle Identity Manager Configuration Wizard only once during initial setup for configuring Oracle Identity Manager Server. After configuring Oracle Identity Manager Server using this wizard, you cannot re-run this wizard to modify the configuration of Oracle Identity Manager. You must use Oracle Enterprise Manager Fusion Middleware Control to make such modifications. However, you can run this wizard on other machines, where Design Console or Remote Manager is configured, as and when needed.

Ensure that you have configured Oracle Identity Manager in a new or existing WebLogic domain before launching the Oracle Identity Manager Configuration Wizard to configure Oracle Identity Manager Server, Design Console on Windows, and Remote Manager.

If you are configuring Server, you must run this wizard on the machine where the WebLogic Administration Server is running (the Administration Server for the domain in which Oracle Identity Manager is deployed). Ensure that the Administration Server is up and running before you start configuring Oracle Identity Manager Server.

If you are configuring only Design Console, you must run this wizard on the Windows machine where Design Console should be configured. If you are configuring only Remote Manager, you must run this wizard on the machine where Remote Manager is being configured. Note that the Oracle Identity Manager Server should be configured before you can configure Design Console or Remote Manager.

Click Next to continue.

B.2 Components to Configure

Use this screen to select the Oracle Identity Manager components that you want to configure. Oracle Identity Manager components include Server, Design Console, and Remote Manager.

Before configuring Oracle Identity Manager Server, Design Console or Remote Manager, ensure that you have configured Oracle Identity Manager in a new or existing WebLogic domain using the Oracle Fusion Middleware Configuration Wizard.

Table B-1 Oracle Identity Manager Configuration Choices

Option Description

Configure all components on this screen

To configure Oracle Identity Manager Server, Design Console, and Remote Manager simultaneously on the same machine, select the Oracle Identity Manager option.

Configure only Oracle Identity Manager Server

To configure only Oracle Identity Manager Server, select the OIM Server option. This option is selected, by default. Note that WebLogic Administration Server for the domain (the domain in which Oracle Identity Manager is deployed) should be up and running.

Configure only Oracle Identity Manager Design Console

To configure only Oracle Identity Manager Design Console, select the OIM Design Console option. However, note that Oracle Identity Manager Server must be configured either on the local machine or on a remote machine before you can run Design Console on development machines. Design Console is supported on Windows operating systems only.

Configure only Oracle Identity Manager Remote Manager

To configure only Oracle Identity Manager Remote Manager, select the OIM Remote Manager option. However, note that Oracle Identity Manager Server must be configured either on the local machine or on a remote machine before you can run Remote Manager.


Note:

You can also select any combination of two of the three Oracle Identity Manager components.

B.3 Database

In this screen, you specify the database and schema information. Note that you should have created and loaded Oracle Identity Manager schemas using the Oracle Fusion Middleware Repository Creation Utility (RCU) before configuring Oracle Identity Manager Server. For information about creating and loading Oracle Identity Manager schemas, see Section 3.2.3, "Creating Database Schema Using the Oracle Fusion Middleware Repository Creation Utility (RCU)".

Figure B-3 Database Screen

Description of Figure B-3 follows

Select different database for MDS schema

Select this check box if you want to use a different database for the Metadata Services (MDS) schema.

MDS Connect String

If you are using a different database for the Metadata Services (MDS) schema, enter the full path, listen port, and service name for the database associated with the MDS schema. The format of the connect string is similar to that of the standard Connect String.

MDS Schema User Name

Enter the name of the schema user that you created for AS Common Services - Metadata Services by using the Oracle Fusion Middleware Repository Creation Utility (RCU).

If you upgraded your existing Metadata Services schema to 11g Release 1 (11.1.1), enter the user name for your existing schema.

MDS Schema Password

Enter the password for the AS Common Services - Metadata Services schema user that you set while creating the schema by using the Oracle Fusion Middleware Repository Creation Utility (RCU).
