Important:
You must complete all post-installation steps in Chapter 7, "Postinstallation Configuration for Oracle Identity Manager and Oracle Application Server" before starting Oracle Identity Manager.After you start any Oracle Identity Manager component for the first time, or after you change any passwords in the xlconfig.xml file, Oracle Identity Manager encrypts and saves the passwords. Oracle Identity Manager also creates a backup copy of the xlconfig.xml file before saving changes to the file. These backup files contain old passwords in plaintext. The backup file are named xlconfig.xml.x, where x is the latest available number, for example xlconfig.xml.0, xlconfig.xml.1, and so on.
Note:
You must remove these backup files after starting any Oracle Identity Manager component for the first time, or on restarting after changing any passwords in xlconfig.xml once you have established that the new password is working properly.This section describes how to start Oracle Identity Manager on Microsoft Windows, UNIX. To start Oracle Identity Manager, start Oracle Application Server. Use the following steps to start the Oracle Application Server and Oracle Identity Manager:

After starting Oracle Application Server and Oracle Identity Manager, you can access the Administrative and User Console. Perform the following steps to access the Administrative and User Console:
Add the fully-qualified domain name of the host with your Oracle Application Server instance to your system's hosts file. This fully-qualified domain name can be found from URL that appears after you log into Enterprise Manager for Oracle Application Server.
Browse to the following URL by using a Web browser:
http://hostname:port/xlWebApp
In this URL, hostname
represents the name of the computer hosting the application server and port
refers to the port on which the server is listening. The default port number for Oracle Application Server is 7777. To determine the port that Oracle Application Server is listening on, open ORACLE_HOME
/install/readme.txt
on UNIX or Linux, and ORACLE_HOME
\install\readme.txt
on Microsoft Windows.
Note:
The application name, xlWebApp, is case-sensitive.For example:
http://localhost:7777/xlWebApp
After the Oracle Identity Manager login page is displayed, log in with your user name and password.
The Diagnostic Dashboard verifies each component in your postinstallation environment by testing for:
A trusted store
Single Sign-On Configuration
Messaging capability
A task scheduler
A Remote Manager
The Diagnostic Dashboard also checks for all supported versions of components along with their packaging.
