8 Oracle Identity and Access Management Independent License Offerings

This chapter describes the separately licensed Oracle Identity and Access Management independent license offerings.

The following sections describe the Oracle Identity and Access Management products and product families that can be separately licensed, independent of the packaged Oracle Application Server or WebLogic editions.

You may not use the options, packs, or products described below without separately purchased licenses. The fact that these options, packs, or products may be included in product CDs or downloads or described in documentation that you receive does not authorize you to use them without purchasing the appropriate licenses.

8.14 Management Pack for Identity Management

The Management Pack for Identity Management enables enterprises to proactively monitor the availability, performance, load, and security metrics of various Identity Management components. The Management Pack for Identity Management helps improve performance and availability, and reduce the cost and complexity of managing Oracle Access Manager, Oracle Identity Manager, and Oracle Identity Federation environments.

8.14.1 Features

The Management Pack for Identity Management leverages Oracle Enterprise Manager Grid Control's broad set of capabilities in configuration management, performance management, and service level management to manage the end-to-end Oracle Access Manager, Oracle Identity Manager, and Oracle Identity Federation environments.

When combined with other Enterprise Manager packs and plug-ins for managing Oracle and non-Oracle database, middleware, network devices and hosts, you can achieve complete end-to-end management of your entire Oracle Identity Management environment.

Note:

A management pack license is required to use the features described below in the Enterprise Manager graphical user interface, command-line interface, and published repository views.

The Management Pack for Identity Management includes the features shown in Table 8-1.

Table 8-1 Feature Highlights of Management Pack for Identity Management

Feature Benefit

Single-step discovery

Perform a single-step discovery of Oracle Access Manager (OAM), Oracle Identity Manager (OIM), and Oracle Identity Federation (OIF), enabling you to quickly set up your monitoring environment.

Monitoring and diagnostics

Receive real-time metrics and historical data as well as alert notifications.

Proactively monitor the Oracle Identity Management environment from both a systems-oriented view and an end-user perspective. Out-of-box collection of key performance metrics for monitored components facilitates rapid time to value. This enables you to set up alerts based on warning and critical thresholds, view current and historical performance information using graphs and reports, and diagnose performance problems by identifying bottlenecks in any of the monitored targets.

Configuration

Track configuration metrics, take configuration snapshots, and compare configurations for Oracle Access Manager components.

Service level management

Model Identity and Access services down to the key components they rely on, define service levels based on business requirements, and report against clearly defined Service Level Objectives (SLOs).

You can also monitor your Oracle Identity Management environment from an end-user perspective using synthetic service tests. These tests simulate key end-user activities, such as logging into an application with a single sign-on. The tests are run through beacons from locations within your network to actively measure the performance and availability of your Identity and Access services.


8.14.2 Installation and Licensed Links

The Management Pack for Identity Management is available from the Oracle Enterprise Manager Grid Control installer.
