Oracle Directory Manager

Oracle Directory Manager, a Java-based graphical user interface tool, enables you to administer the Oracle Directory Integration and Provisioning platform by:

• Creating, modifying, and deleting directory integration profiles for synchronization

• Monitoring the synchronization of directory integration profiles for synchronization

• Monitoring the status of all Oracle directory integration and provisioning server instances

OID Control and OID Monitor

OID Control and OID Monitor enable you to start, stop, and monitor the Oracle directory integration and provisioning server.

In Oracle Internet Directory, you can use OID Control and OID Monitor to control the directory integration and provisioning server in the ORACLE_HOME where either the Oracle directory server or Oracle directory integration and provisioning server are installed.

If the Oracle Internet Directory installation is client-only, then the OID Control Utility and OID Monitor are not installed. In this case, start Oracle directory integration and provisioning server manually. In this configuration you can still use Oracle Directory Manager to learn the status of Oracle directory integration and provisioning server.

Directory Integration and Provisioning Assistant

The Directory Integration and Provisioning Assistant enables you to create, modify, and delete directory synchronization profiles and provisioning integration profiles in the Oracle Directory Integration and Provisioning platform. It also provides a bootstrap command for making Oracle Internet Directory and the connected directory contain the same data prior to exchanging information.

You can use Oracle Enterprise Manager to monitor the status of various integration profiles. This integrated, comprehensive, systems-management platform combines a graphical console, agents, common services, and tools to aid you in scheduling, monitoring, and administering your heterogeneous environment.
