Documentation-Specific Updates
This section describes major changes made to this guide. These changes are not related to software updates.
The following sections discuss updates made from release 9.0.4 to the current release of the connector:
The following is a software update in release 9.0.4.1:
In this release, the connector supports Oracle Application Server. Changes related to this software update have been made in the following sections:
Installing the Security Package section
Enabling Logging section
From Chapter 5, "Known Issues", the following item has been removed:
The connector uses the JCO API that supports JDK 1.4 to communicate with SAP User Management. Oracle Identity Manager supports the Oracle Containers for J2EE (OC4J) release that works on JDK 1.5. Therefore, the connector does not support OC4J.
The following are issues resolved in release 9.0.4.1_6629957:
| Bug Number | Issue | Resolution |
|---|---|---|
| 6629957 | When you add or remove a single role from an SAP user through a provisioning operation, all roles assigned to that SAP user have the effective date (Start date) changed to the current date on the target system. | This issue has been resolved. When you add or remove a role, the Start Date and End Date values on the target system are not changed. |
The following are issues resolved in release 9.0.4.2:
| Bug Number | Issue | Resolution |
|---|---|---|
| 6933371 | A reconciliation run with the SAP R/3 target system failed if the number of lines of the query created in the target system (when the scheduled task was run) went beyond the internal limit set in the target system. The "Error in module RSQL of the database interface" error message was displayed on the target system as the outcome of the reconciliation run. | To resolve this issue, the Exclude changes by SAPUser attribute has been added to the R3 Recon reconciliation scheduled task. You can set the value of this attribute to either yes, or no.
Note: SAPUser is the user ID that you specify as the value of the SAPUser parameter while performing the procedure described in the "Defining IT Resources" section of the connector guide. You must set the value of the Exclude changes by SAPUser attribute to If the value of the attribute is Workaround: An alternative method to avoid the issue described by Bug 6933371, is to delete the value of the TimeStamp IT resource parameter. In other words, perform a full reconciliation run. |
There are no software updates in releases 9.0.4.3.
The following is a software update in release 9.0.4.4:
From Oracle Identity Manager release 9.1.0 onward, the Administrative and User Console provides the Connector Installer feature. This feature can be used to automate the connector installation procedure.
See "Installing the Connector" for details.
The following are issues resolved in release 9.0.4.5:
| Bug Number | Issue | Resolution |
|---|---|---|
| 7644485 | During reconciliation, the time stamp of the Oracle Identity Manager host computer is used to set the time stamp value in the TimeStamp IT resource parameter. This time stamp is used to determine which records must be fetched from the target system during the next reconciliation run.
If the time zone of the Oracle Identity Manager host computer was different from the time zone of the target system host computer, then some records that should have been fetched for reconciliation were not fetched. |
This issue has been resolved. The OIMServerTimeZone attribute has been added in the scheduled task. You use this attribute to specify the time zone of the Oracle Identity Manager host computer.
See "User Reconciliation Scheduled Task" for more information about this attribute. |
| 7418360 | The java.lang.OutOfMemoryError exception was encountered if a provisioning operation involved a large number of users. |
This issue has been resolved. The connector now supports SAP JCo 3.0. The issue is not encountered when you use SAP custom code files provided along with this version of the SAP JCo.
Note: SAP JCo 3.0 replaces SAP JCo 2.0 and SAP JCo 2.1. It requires JVM version 1.5 or later, and it is incompatible with earlier versions of SAP JCo. See "Verifying Deployment Requirements" for information about the required external files. |
There are no software updates in release 9.0.4.6.
The following are issues resolved in release 9.0.4.7:
| Bug Number | Issue | Resolution |
|---|---|---|
| 7558078 | An error was encountered when you tried to provision the SAP R/3 resource to multiple users at the same time. | The TimeoutRetryCount and TimeoutCount parameters have been added in the IT resource definition. You use these parameters to specify the delay between consecutive retries of the Add User Role process task.
See "Configuring the IT Resource" for more information. |
The following are issues resolved in release 9.0.4.8:
| Bug Number | Issue | Resolution |
|---|---|---|
