Table 2-1 Files and Directories on the Installation Media
File in the Installation Media Directory | Description |
---|---|
configuration/PSFT_Employee_Reconciliation-CI.xml |
This XML file contains configuration information that is used during connector installation. |
lib/PSFTER.jar |
This JAR file contains the class files that are specific to the PeopleSoft Employee Reconciliation connector. During connector deployment, this file is copied to the following location:
|
lib/Common.jar |
This JAR file contains the class files that are common to all connectors. During connector deployment, this file is copied to the following location:
|
lib/PSFTCommon.jar |
This JAR file contains PeopleSoft-specific files common to both Employee Reconciliation and User Management versions of the connector. During connector deployment, this file is copied to the following location:
|
lib/PeopleSoftOIMListener.war lib/PeopleSoftOIMListener.ear |
This Web Archive (WAR) file contains the classes and configuration files required to implement incremental reconciliation. This Enterprise Archive (EAR) file contains one or more entries representing the modules of the Web application to be deployed onto an application server. During connector deployment:
|
test/scripts/InvokeListener.bat test/scripts/InvokeListener.sh |
This BAT file and the UNIX shell script call the testing utility for reconciliation. |
test/config/reconConfig.properties test/config/log.properties |
These files are used by theInvokeListener.bat file. The reconConfig.properties file contains configuration information for running the InvokeListener.bat file. The log.properties file contains logger information. |
This XML file contains definitions for the connector components.
|
|
Files in the resources directory |
Each of these resource bundles contains language-specific information that is used by the connector. During connector deployment, this file is copied to the following location:
Note: A resource bundle is a file containing localized versions of the text strings that are displayed on the Administrative and User Console. These text strings include GUI element labels and messages. |
The following project files in the peoplecode directory: OIM_ER OIM_ER_DELETE |
These files contain the PeopleCode for the steps that you define for importing a project from Application Designer. This is explained in Section 2.1.2.1, "Importing a Project from Application Designer." Each project file contains two files with .ini and .xml extension that has the same name as the project. They are listed as follows:
|
samples/PSFTXellerateUserReconMessageHandlerImpl.java samples/XellerateUserMessageParser.java |
These files are used for implementing Message Handler and Message Parser for PeopleSoft 9.1.0.x release-specific messages. |
JavaDoc |
This directory contains information about the Java APIs used by the connector. |
Note: If you are using Oracle Identity Manager release 9.1.0.x, then the procedure described in this section is optional.If you are using Oracle Identity Manager release 11.1.1, then skip this section. |
You might have a deployment of an earlier release of the connector. While deploying the current release, you might want to know the release number of the earlier release. To determine the release number of a connector that has been deployed:
In a temporary directory, extract the contents of the following JAR file:
OIM_HOME/xellerate/ScheduleTask/PSFTER.jar
Open the manifest.mf file in a text editor. The manifest.mf file is bundled inside the PSFTER.jar file.
In the Manifest.mf file, the release number of the connector is displayed as the value of the Version property.
The Common.jar file is in the deployment package of each 9.1.x release of the connector. With each new release, code corresponding to that particular release is added to the existing code in this file. For example, the Common.jar file shipped with Connector Y on 12-July contains:
Code specific to Connector Y
Code included in the Common.jar files shipped with all other 9.1.x release of the connectors that were released before 12-July
If you have installed a release 9.1.x connector that was released after the current release of the PeopleSoft Employee Reconciliation connector, back up the existing Common.jar file, install the PeopleSoft Employee Reconciliation connector, and then restore the Common.jar file. The steps to perform this procedure are as follows:
Caution: If you do not perform this procedure, then your release 9.1.x connectors might not work. |
Determine the release date of your existing release 9.1.x connector as follows:
Extract the contents of the following file in a temporary directory:
OIM_HOME/xellerate/JavaTasks/Common.jar
Note: On Oracle Identity Manager release 11.1.1, use either DownloadJars.sh or DownloadJars.bat to download the common.jar file from the database, and then extract the contents of this file into a temporary directory.See Oracle Fusion Middleware Developer's Guide for Oracle Identity Manager for instructions about using the Download JARs utility. |
Open the Manifest.mf file in a text editor.
Note down the Build Date and Build Version values.
Determine the Build Date and Build Version values of the current release of the PeopleSoft Employee Reconciliation connector as follows:
On the installation media for the connector, extract the contents of the lib/Common.jar and then open the Manifest.mf file in a text editor.
Note down the Build Date and Build Version values.
If the Build Date and Build Version values for the PeopleSoft Employee Reconciliation connector are less than the Build Date and Build Version values for the connector that is installed, then:
If you are using Oracle Identity Manager release 9.1.0.x, then:
Copy the OIM_HOME/xellerate/JavaTasks/Common.jar to a temporary location.
After you perform the procedure described in Section 2.2, "Installation" overwrite the new Common.jar file in the OIM_HOME/xellerate/JavaTasks directory with the Common.jar file that you backed up in the preceding step.
If you are using Oracle Identity Manager release 11.1.1, then run the Oracle Identity Manager Upload JARs utility to post the Common.jar file to the Oracle Identity Manager database. This utility is copied into the following location when you install Oracle Identity Manager:
Note: Before you use the utility, verify that theWL_HOME environment variable is set to the directory in which Oracle WebLogic Server is installed. |
For Microsoft Windows:
OIM_HOME/server/bin/UploadJars.bat
For UNIX:
OIM_HOME/server/bin/UploadJars.sh
When you run the utility, you are prompted to enter the login credentials of the Oracle Identity Manager administrator, URL of the Oracle Identity Manager host computer, context factory value, type of JAR file being uploaded, and the location from which the JAR file is to be uploaded. Specify 1 as the value of the JAR type.
See Also: Oracle Fusion Middleware Developer's Guide for Oracle Identity Manager for detailed information about the Upload JARs utility |
Permission lists, roles, and user profiles are building blocks of PeopleSoft security. Each user of the system has an individual User Profile, which in turn is linked to one or more Roles. To each Role, you can add one or more Permission Lists, which defines what a user can access. So, a user inherits permissions through the role that is attached to a User Profile.
You must create limited rights users who have restricted rights to access resources in the production environment to perform PeopleSoft-specific installation or maintenance operations.
The preinstallation steps consist of creating a user account with limited rights. Permission lists may contain any number of accesses, such as the Web libraries permission, Web services permissions, page permissions, and so on. You attach this permission list to a role, which in turn is linked to a user profile.
This section describes the following procedures, which have to be performed on the target system to create a user account with limited rights:
Section 2.1.2.1, "Importing a Project from Application Designer"
Section 2.1.2.2, "Creating a Target System User Account for Connector Operations"
A PeopleSoft Application Designer project is an efficient way to configure your application.
You can import the OIM_ER project created in Application Designer to automate the steps for creating a permission list. You can also create a permission list by manually performing the steps described in Section 2.1.2.2.1, "Creating a Permission List." If you import the project, OIM_ER then you need not perform the steps mentioned in this section.
Note: If you install, uninstall, or upgrade the same project repeatedly the earlier project definition will be overwritten in the database. |
To import a project from Application Designer:
Note: You can access the project files from the following directories:For Oracle Identity Manager release 9.1.0.x: OIM_HOME/xellerate/XLIntegrations/PSFTER/peoplecode/OIM_ER OIM_HOME/xellerate/XLIntegrations/PSFTER/peoplecode/OIM_ER_DELETE For Oracle Identity Manager release 11.1.1: OIM_HOME/server/XLIntegrations/PSFTER/peoplecode/OIM_ER OIM_HOME/server/XLIntegrations/PSFTER/peoplecode/OIM_ER_DELETE Copy these files to a directory on your computer from where you can access Application Designer. |
To open Application Designer in 2-tier mode, click Start, Programs, Peoplesoft8.x, and then Application Designer.
From the Tools menu, click Copy Project and then From File.
The Copy From File : Select Project dialog box appears.
Navigate to the directory in which the PeopleSoft project file is placed.
The project files are present in the /peoplecode
directory of the installation media. Place these files in a new folder so that is accessible by the Application Designer program. Ensure that the folder name is the same as that of the project you are importing.
For example, place the OIM_ER.ini and OIM_ER.xml files in OIM_ER folder.
Select the project from the Select Project from the List Below region. The name of the project file is OIM_ER.
Click Select.
Click Copy.
Note: You can remove the PeopleSoft project file and all its objects from the target system. To do so, repeat the steps described in the preceding procedure. When you reach Step 4, select OIM_ER_DELETE from the Select Project from the List Below region. |
You must create a target system account with privileges required for connector operations. The user account created on the target system has the permission to perform all the configurations required for connector operations. This includes configuring the PeopleSoft Integration Broker for full reconciliation and incremental reconciliation. This account cannot access pages or components that are not required by the connector.
The following sections describe the procedures to create this target system account:
Note: For creating the target system account, you must log in to PeopleSoft Internet Architecture with administrator credentials. |
Section 2.1.2.2.2, "Creating a Role for a Limited Rights User"
Section 2.1.2.2.3, "Assigning the Required Privileges to the Target System Account"

This section is classified based on the Oracle Identity Manager releases. Perform the procedure described in one of the following sections:
Section 2.2.1.4.1, "Deploying the PeopleSoft Listener on Oracle Identity Manager Release 9.1.0.x"
Section 2.2.1.4.2, "Deploying the PeopleSoft Listener on Oracle Identity Manager Release 11.1.1"
To deploy the PeopleSoft listener on Oracle Identity Manager release 9.1.0.x:
Copy the OIM_HOME/xellerate/XLIntegrations/PSFTER/WAR/PeopleSoftOIMListener.war file into a temporary folder. Enter the following command to extract the contents of the PeopleSoftOIMListener.war file.
jar -xvf PeopleSoftOIMListener.war
Note: All the files mentioned in the remaining steps of this procedure are extracted from the PeopleSoftOIMListener.war file. |
Copy the following files from the OIM_HOME/xellerate/lib directory to the WEB-INF/lib directory in the temporary folder:
Note:
|
xlAPI.jar
xlAuthentication.jar
xlCache.jar
xlCrypto.jar
xlLogger.jar
xlVO.jar
xlDataObjectBeans.jar (For IBM WebSphere Application Server, copy this file from the OIM_CLIENT/xlclient/lib directory.)
xlUtils.jar (for Oracle Application Server)
Copy Common.jar from the /lib directory on the installation media to the WEB-INF/lib directory in the temporary folder.
Edit the web.xml file as follows:
Locate the Login Name of the OIM Admin User details.
<param-value>OIM_ADMIN_USER</param-value>
Replace OIM_ADMIN_USER with Oracle Identity Manager administrator credentials.
For example, if the administrative account on Oracle Identity Manager is xelsysadm, then update the line as follows:
<param-value>xelsysadm</param-value>
Locate the XL Home Dir details, and replace OIM_HOME with the Oracle Identity Manager Home location.
Locate the java security policy details.
<param-name>java.security.policy</param-name> <param-value>OIM_HOME/config/xl.policy</param-value>
Here, java.security.policy property is used to specify the fully qualified file name of the policy file. Typically, this file is located in the OIM_HOME/designconsole/config directory.
Replace OIM_HOME with the path to the design console directory as specified in Step 4 b.
<param-value>E:/OIM11g_Installations/MAY1202010/Middleware/OIM_HOME/designconsole/config/xl.policy</param-value>
Locate the java security login config details.
<param-name>java.security.auth.login.config</param-name> <param-value>OIM_HOME/xellerate/config/auth(ws/wl/oc4j).conf</param-value>
Here, java.security.auth.login.config property is used to specify the fully qualified file name of the authentication configuration file. Typically, this file is located in the OIM_HOME/xellerate/config directory.
Each application server uses a different authentication configuration file:
IBM WebSphere Application Server: authws.conf
JBoss Application Server: auth.conf
Oracle WebLogic Server: authwl.conf
Oracle Application Server: authoc4j.conf
You must edit the auth(ws/wl/oc4j).conf value in the preceding line to the application server-specific configuration file.
Locate the Message Handler Impl classes details.
<param-name>IT_RESOURCE_NAME</param-name>
Replace IT_RESOURCE_NAME with the name of the IT resource.
For example, if the name of IT resource is PSFT Server, then update the line as follows:
<param-name>PSFT Server</param-name>
Locate the following line:
<param-value>MESSAGE~IMPLEMENTATION_CLASS;MESSAGE~IMPLEMENTATION_CLASS;MESSAGE~IMPLEMENTATION_CLASS</param-value>
In this format, the message name and its implementation class must be separated by a tilde (~). For multiple messages, each pair must be separated with a semicolon (;). For default implementation, you must modify the line as follows:
<param-value>PERSON_BASIC_SYNC~oracle.iam.connectors.psft.common.handler.impl.PSFTPersonSyncReconMessageHandlerImpl;USER_PROFILE~oracle.iam.connectors.psft.common.handler.impl.PSFTUserProfileReconMessageHandlerImpl;WORKFORCE_SYNC~oracle.iam.connectors.psft.common.handler.impl.PSFTWorkForceSyncReconMessageHandlerImpl;DELETE_USER_PROFILE~oracle.iam.connectors.psft.common.handler.impl.PSFTDeleteUserReconMessageHandlerImpl</param-value>
If PeopleSoft is sending the PERSON_BASIC_SYNC.VERSION_3 message for PERSON_BASIC_SYNC, then modify the line as follows:
<param-value>PERSON_BASIC_SYNC.VERSION_3~oracle.iam.connectors.psft.common.handler.impl.PSFTPersonSyncReconMessageHandlerImpl;USER_PROFILE~oracle.iam.connectors.psft.common.handler.impl.PSFTUserProfileReconMessageHandlerImpl;WORKFORCE_SYNC~oracle.iam.connectors.psft.common.handler.impl.PSFTWorkForceSyncReconMessageHandlerImpl;DELETE_USER_PROFILE~oracle.iam.connectors.psft.common.handler.impl.PSFTDeleteUserReconMessageHandlerImpl</param-value>
Locate the java provider details.
<param-name>java.naming.provider.url</param-name> <param-value>For valid value Check xlConfig.xml</param-value>
Typically, the xlConfig.xml file is located in the OIM_HOME/designconsole/config directory.
Replace For valid value Check xlConfig.xml with the value obtained from the XML file.
For example, is the value for Java provider in the XML file is t3://172.21.109.102:8003/oim, then update the line as follows:
<param-value>t3://172.21.109.102:8003/oim</param-value>
Delete the PeopleSoftOIMListener.war file from the temporary directory into which you extracted it, and then use the following command to re-create the file:
jar –cvf PeoplesoftOIMListener.war .
Ensure that the old version of the PeopleSoftOIMListener.war file is removed from the application server deployment directory.
Deploy the newly created PeopleSoftOIMListener.war file into the deployment directory of the application server as follows:
For IBM WebSphere Application Server:
Log in to the WebSphere Admin console.
Expand Applications.
Click Install New Application.
Click the Browse button to locate the WAR file.
Specify the Context root as PeopleSoftOIMListener
.
Click Next.

Configuring the target system for incremental reconciliation involves configuring PeopleSoft Integration Broker and configuring the PERSON_BASIC_SYNC and WORKFORCE_SYNC messages.
A message is the physical container for the XML data that is sent from the target system. Message definitions provide the physical description of data that is sent from the target system. This data includes fields, field types, and field lengths. A queue is used to carry messages. It is a mechanism for structuring data into logical groups. A message can belong to only one queue.
Setting the PeopleSoft Integration Broker gateway is mandatory when you configure PeopleSoft Integration Broker. To subscribe to XML data, Oracle Identity Manager can accept and process XML messages posted by PeopleSoft by using PeopleSoft connectors located in the PeopleSoft Integration Broker gateway. These connectors are Java programs that are controlled by the PeopleSoft Integration Broker gateway.
This gateway is a program that runs on the PeopleSoft Web server. It acts as a physical hub between PeopleSoft and PeopleSoft applications (or third-party systems, such as Oracle Identity Manager). The gateway manages the receipt and delivery of messages to external applications through PeopleSoft Integration Broker.
To configure the target system for incremental reconciliation, perform the following procedures:

By default, Peoplesoft messages contain fields that are not needed in Oracle Identity Manager. If there is a strong use case that these fields should not be published to Oracle Identity Manager, then do the following:
Locate if there are any local-to-local or local-to-third party PeopleSoft active routings for the service operations using the message under study.
If none, then you can safely remove the unwanted fields at message level. See "Removing Unwanted Fields at Message Level" section for more information.
If active routings exist, analyze the subscription or handler code of the routing to determine the fields they are utilizing and the ones not needed in Oracle Identity Manager. If so, remove the unwanted fields at message level. See "Removing Unwanted Fields at Message Level" section for more information.
Lastly, if there are active routings that use these sensitive fields that you do not want to transmit to Oracle Identity Manager, then you need to write a transformation.
For more information about implementing transformation, refer to Chapter 21 of Integration Broker PeopleBook on Oracle Technology Network at the following location
http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E13292_01/pt849pbr0/eng/psbooks/tibr/book.htm
In addition, refer to Chapter 43 of PeopleCode API Reference PeopleBook on Oracle Technology Network at the following location
http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E13292_01/pt849pbr0/eng/psbooks/tpcr/book.htm
Removing Unwanted Fields at Message Level
Expand PeopleTools, Integration Broker, Integration Setup, and then click Messages.
Search for and open the desired message, for example, PERSON_BASIC_SYNC.VERSION_3 used for incremental reconciliation.
Expand the message.
Navigate to the field that you do not want to transmit to Oracle Identity Manager, for example, NAME_ROYAL_PREFIX.
Click the field and clear the Include check box.
Click OK, return and save the message.
Postinstallation information is divided across the following sections:
Note: In an Oracle Identity Manager cluster, you must perform this step on each node of the cluster. |

Section 2.3.1.1.2, "Enabling Logging on Oracle Identity Manager Release 11.1.1"
Note: In an Oracle Identity Manager cluster, perform this procedure on each node of the cluster. Then, restart each node. |
When you enable logging, Oracle Identity Manager automatically stores in a log file information about events that occur during reconciliation operations. To specify the type of event for which you want logging to take place, you can set the log level to one of the following:
ALL
This level enables logging for all events.
DEBUG
This level enables logging of information about fine-grained events that are useful for debugging.
INFO
This level enables logging of messages that highlight the progress of the application at a coarse-grained level.
WARN
This level enables logging of information about potentially harmful situations.
ERROR
This level enables logging of information about error events that might allow the application to continue running.
FATAL
This level enables logging of information about very severe error events that could cause the application to stop functioning.
OFF
This level disables logging for all events.
The file in which you set the log level depends on the application server that you use:

Oracle Identity Manager release 11.1.1 uses Oracle Java Diagnostic Logging (OJDL) for logging. OJDL is based on java.util.logger. To specify the type of event for which you want logging to take place, you can set the log level to one of the following:
SEVERE.intValue()+100
This level enables logging of information about fatal errors.
SEVERE
This level enables logging of information about errors that may allow Oracle Identity Manager to continue running.
WARNING
This level enables logging of information about potentially harmful situations.
INFO
This level enables logging of messages that highlight the progress of the application.
CONFIG
This level enables logging of information about fine-grained events that are useful for debugging.
FINE, FINER, FINEST
These levels enable logging of information about fine-grained events, where FINEST logs information about all events.
These message types are mapped to ODL message type and level combinations as shown in Table 2-5.
Table 2-5 Log Levels and ODL Message Type:Level Combinations
Java Level | ODL Message Type:Level |
---|---|
SEVERE.intValue()+100 |
INCIDENT_ERROR:1 |
SEVERE |
ERROR:1 |
WARNING |
WARNING:1 |
INFO |
NOTIFICATION:1 |
CONFIG |
NOTIFICATION:16 |
FINE |
TRACE:1 |
FINER |
TRACE:16 |
FINEST |
TRACE:32 |
The configuration file for OJDL is logging.xml, which is located at the following path:
DOMAIN_HOME/config/fmwconfig/servers/OIM_SERVER/logging.xml
Here, DOMAIN_HOME and OIM_SEVER are the domain name and server name specified during the installation of Oracle Identity Manager.
To enable logging in Oracle WebLogic Server:
Edit the logging.xml file as follows:
Add the following blocks in the file:
<log_handler name='psft-er-handler' level='[LOG_LEVEL]' class='oracle.core.ojdl.logging.ODLHandlerFactory'> <property name='logreader:' value='off'/> <property name='path' value='[FILE_NAME]'/> <property name='format' value='ODL-Text'/> <property name='useThreadName' value='true'/> <property name='locale' value='en'/> <property name='maxFileSize' value='5242880'/> <property name='maxLogSize' value='52428800'/> <property name='encoding' value='UTF-8'/> </log_handler>
<logger name="OIMCP.PSFTCOMMON" level="[LOG_LEVEL]" useParentHandlers="false">
<handler name="psft-er-handler"/>
<handler name="console-handler"/>
</logger>
<logger name="OIMCP.PSFTER" level="[LOG_LEVEL]" useParentHandlers="false">
<handler name="psft-er-handler"/>
<handler name="console-handler"/>
</logger>
Replace all occurrences of [LOG_LEVEL] with the ODL message type and level combination that you require. Table 2-5 lists the supported message type and level combinations.
Similarly, replace [FILE_NAME] with the full path and name of the log file in which you want log messages to be recorded.
The following blocks show sample values for [LOG_LEVEL] and [FILE_NAME]:
<log_handler name='psft-er-handler' level='NOTIFICATION:1' class='oracle.core.ojdl.logging.ODLHandlerFactory'> <property name='logreader:' value='off'/> <property name='path' value='F:\MyMachine\middleware\user_projects\domains\base_domain1\servers\oim_server1\logs\oim_server1-diagnostic-1.log'/> <property name='format' value='ODL-Text'/> <property name='useThreadName' value='true'/> <property name='locale' value='en'/> <property name='maxFileSize' value='5242880'/> <property name='maxLogSize' value='52428800'/> <property name='encoding' value='UTF-8'/> </log_handler>
<logger name="OIMCP.PSFTCOMMON" level="NOTIFICATION:1" useParentHandlers="false">
<handler name="psft-er-handler"/>
<handler name="console-handler"/>
</logger>
<logger name="OIMCP.PSFTER" level="NOTIFICATION:1" useParentHandlers="false">
<handler name="psft-er-handler"/>
<handler name="console-handler"/>
</logger>
With these sample values, when you use Oracle Identity Manager, all messages generated for this connector that are of a log level equal to or higher than the NOTIFICATION:1 level are recorded in the specified file.
Save and close the file.
Set the following environment variable to redirect the server logs to a file:
For Microsoft Windows:
set WLS_REDIRECT_LOG=FILENAME
For UNIX:
export WLS_REDIRECT_LOG=FILENAME
Replace FILENAME with the actual name of the file to which you want to redirect the output.
Restart the application server.
In the Lookup.PSFT.HRMS.ExclusionList lookup definition, enter the user IDs of target system accounts for which you do not want to perform reconciliation. See Section 1.5.4.3.2, "Lookup.PSFT.HRMS.ExclusionList" for more information about this lookup definition.
On the Design Console, expand Administration and then double-click Lookup Definition.
Search for and open the Lookup.PSFT.HRMS.ExclusionList lookup definition.
Click Add.
Note: The Code Key represents the resource object field name on which the exclusion list is applied during reconciliation. |
In the Code Key and Decode columns, enter the first user ID to exclude.
Repeat Steps 3 and 4 for all the user IDs you want to exclude.
For example, if you do not want to reconcile users with user ID 's User001, User002, and User088 then you must populate the lookup definition with the following values:
Code Key | Decode |
---|---|
User ID | User001~User002~User088 |
Click the Save icon.
Every standard PeopleSoft message has a message-specific configuration defined in the Lookup.PSFT.Configuration lookup definition. See Section 1.5.4.3.1, "Lookup.PSFT.Configuration" for more information about this lookup definition.
For example, the mapping for the PERSON_BASIC_SYNC message in this lookup definition is defined as follows:
Code Key: PERSON_BASIC_SYNC
Decode: Lookup.PSFT.Message.PersonBasicSync.Configuration
You can configure the message names, such as PERSON_BASIC_SYNC, WORKFORCE_SYNC, PERSON_BASIC_FULLSYNC, and WORKFORCE_FULLSYNC defined in this lookup definition.
Consider a scenario in which the target system sends the PERSON_BASIC_SYNC.VERSION_3 message. You must change the Code Key value in this lookup definition to implement the message sent by the target system.
To modify or set the Code Key value:
On the Design Console, expand Administration and then double-click Lookup Definition.
Search for and open the Lookup.PSFT.Configuration lookup definition.
Click Add.
In the Code Key column, enter the name of the message you want to modify. In this scenario define the mapping as follows:
Code Key: PERSON_BASIC_SYNC.VERSION_3
Decode: Lookup.PSFT.Message.PersonBasicSync.Configuration
Repeat Steps 3 and 4 to modify the Code Key values for all the standard PeopleSoft messages you want to rename in this lookup definition.
Click the Save icon.
The following sections describe the procedure to configure SSL connectivity between Oracle Identity Manager and the target system:

Section 2.3.1.4.2, "Configuring SSL on JBoss Application Server"
Section 2.3.1.4.3, "Configuring SSL on Oracle WebLogic Server"
Section 2.3.1.4.4, "Configuring SSL on Oracle Application Server"
You can configure SSL connectivity on IBM WebSphere Application Server with either a self-signed certificate or a CA certificate. Perform the procedure described in one of the following sections:
Configuring SSL on IBM WebSphere Application Server with a Self-Signed Certificate
Configuring SSL on IBM WebSphere Application Server with a CA Certificate
Configuring SSL on IBM WebSphere Application Server with a Self-Signed Certificate
To configure SSL connectivity between Oracle Identity Manager on IBM WebSphere Application Server and the target system with a self-signed certificate, you must perform the following tasks:
Log in to the WebSphere Integrated Solutions Console. The URL may be similar to the following:
https://localhost:9043/ibm/console/logon.jsp
Click Security, SSL certificate and key management, Related items, Key stores and certificates, NodeDefaultKeyStore, and then click Personal certificates.
Click Create a self-signed certificate.
In the Alias field, enter an alias name. You specify the alias name to identify the certificate request in the keystore.
In the CN field, enter a value for common name. The common name must be the fully qualified DNS host name or the name of the computer. The CN of the certificate must match the domain name or the name of the computer. For example, if the name of your domain is us.example.com, then the CN of the SSL certificate that you create for your domain must also be us.example.com.
In the Organization field, enter an organization name.
In the Organization unit field, specify the organization unit.
In the Locality field, enter the locality.
In the State or Province field, enter the state.
In the Zip Code field, enter the zip code.
From the Country or region list, select the country code.

Click Apply and then click OK.
Configuring SSL on IBM WebSphere Application Server with a CA Certificate
To configure SSL connectivity between Oracle Identity Manager on IBM WebSphere Application Server and the target system with a CA certificate, you must perform the following tasks:
Log in to the WebSphere Integrated Solutions Console. The URL may be similar to the following:
https://localhost:9043/ibm/console/logon.jsp
Click Security, SSL certificate and key management, Related items, Key stores and certificates, NodeDefaultKeyStore.
On the Additional Properties tab, click Personal certificate requests.
Click New.
In the File for certificate request field, enter the full path where the certificate request is to be stored, and a file name. For example: c:\servercertreq.arm
(for a computer running on Microsoft Windows).
In the Key label field, enter an alias name. You specify the alias name to identify the certificate request in the keystore.
In the CN field, enter a value for common name. The common name must be the fully-qualified DNS host name or the name of the computer. The CN of the certificate must match the domain name of your community. For example, if the name of your domain is us.example.com, then the CN of the SSL certificate that you create for your community must also be us.example.com.
In the Organization field, enter an organization name.
In the Organization unit field, specify the organization unit.
In the Locality field, enter the locality.
In the State or Province field, enter the state.
In the Zip Code field, enter the zip code.
From the Country or region list, select the country code.
Click Apply and then Save. The certificate request is created in the specified file location in the keystore. This request functions as a temporary placeholder for the signed certificate until you manually receive the certificate in the keystore.
Note: Keystore tools such as iKeyman and keyTool cannot receive signed certificates that are generated by certificate requests from IBM WebSphere Application Server. Similarly, IBM WebSphere Application Server cannot accept certificates that are generated by certificate requests from other keystore utilities. |
Send the certification request arm file to a CA for signing.
Create a backup of your keystore file. You must create this backup before receiving the CA-signed certificate into the keystore. The default password for the keystore is WebAS. The Integrated Solutions Console contains the path information for the location of the keystore. The path to the NodeDefaultKeyStore is listed in the Integrated Solutions Console as:
was_profile_root\config\cells\cell_name\nodes\node_name\key.p12
Now you can receive the CA-signed certificate into the keystore to complete the process of generating a signed certificate for IBM WebSphere Application Server.
To receive a signed certificate issued by a CA, perform the following tasks:
In the WebSphere Integrated Solutions Console, click Security, SSL certificate and key management, Related items, Key stores and certificates, NodeDefaultKeyStore, and then click Personal Certificates.
Click Receive a certificate from a certificate authority.
Enter the full path and name of the certificate file.
Select the default data type from the list.
Click Apply and then Save.
The keystore contains a new personal certificate that is issued by a CA. The SSL configuration is ready to use the new CA-signed personal certificate.
Before configuring SSL on JBoss Application Server, ensure that:
JBoss Application Server is installed on the Oracle Identity Manager host computer
Java Developer's Kit is installed on the JBoss Application Server host
You can configure SSL connectivity on JBoss Application Server with either a self-signed certificate or a CA certificate. The following sections describe this. If you are configuring SSL on JBoss Application Server with a self-signed certificate, then perform the following tasks:
If you are configuring SSL on JBoss Application Server with a CA certificate, then perform the following tasks:
Creating the Self-Signed Certificate
To create the self-signed certificate, see "Generating Keystore".
Importing a CA Certificate
To import a CA certificate, perform the following tasks:
Run the following command:
keytool -genkey -alias ALIAS_NAME -keystore ABSOLUTE_KEYSTORE_PATH -keyalg KEY_ALGORITHM -storepass KEYSTORE_PASSWORD -keypass PRIVATE_KEY_PASS
For example:
keytool -genkey -alias example088196 -keystore c:\temp\keys\custom.keystore -keyalg RSA -storepass example1234 -keypass example1234
Note: - The keystore password and the private key password must be the same. - Typically, the alias is the name or the IP address of the computer on which you are configuring SSL. - The alias used in the various commands of this procedure must be the same. |
When prompted, enter the information about the certificate, such as company and contact name. This information is displayed to employees attempting to access a secure page in the application. This is illustrated in the following example:
What is your first and last name? [Unknown]: Must be the name or IP address of the computer What is the name of your organizational unit? [Unknown]: example What is the name of your organization? [Unknown]: example What is the name of your City or Locality? [Unknown]: New York What is the name of your State or Province? [Unknown]: New York What is the two-letter country code for this unit? [Unknown]: US Is <CN=Name or IP address of the computer, OU=example, O=example, L=New York, ST=New York, C=US> correct? [no]: yes
When you enter yes in the last line of the preceding example, the custom keystore file is created in the c:\temp\keys\ directory.
Generate the certificate signing request by running the following command:
keytool -certreq -alias ALIAS_NAME -file ABSOLUTE_CSR_PATH -keystore ABSOLUTE_KEYSTORE_PATH
For example:
keytool -certreq -alias example088196 -file c:\temp\keys\certReq.csr -keystore c:\temp\keys\custom.keystore
Submit the certReq.csr file on a CA Web site for downloading the CA certificate.
Ensure that your %JAVA_HOME%\jre\lib\security\cacerts has the root certificate of the CA that has generated the CA certificate.
To check all the root certificates that %JAVA_HOME%\jre\lib\security\cacerts contains, run the following command:
keytool -list -keystore %JAVA_HOME%\jre\lib\security\cacerts -storepass cacerts_store_password
For example:
%JAVA_HOME%\jre\bin\keytool -list -keystore %JAVA_HOME%\jre\lib\security\cacerts -storepass changeit
If the %JAVA_HOME%\jre\lib\security\cacerts keystore does not contain the root certificate of CA that has generated the CA certificate, then you must import the root certificate of CA into %JAVA_HOME%\jre\lib\security\cacerts.
Run the following command to import the root certificate of CA:
keytool -import -alias <cacerts_key_entry_alias> -file <CARootCertificate.cer> -keystore %JAVA_HOME%\jre\lib\security\cacerts -storepass cacerts_store_password
For example:
keytool -import -alias cakey -file "C:\temp\Thawte Test Root.cer" -keystore %JAVA_HOME%\jre\lib\security\cacerts -storepass changeit
The certificate is added to the keystore.
Import the CA certificate by running the following command:
keytool -import -alias ALIAS_NAME -keystore ABSOLUTE_KEYSTORE_PATH -trustcacerts -file ABSOLUTE_CACERT_PATH
ABSOLUTE_CACERT_PATH represents the path in which you have stored the certificate downloaded from CA.
For example:
keytool -import -alias example088196 -keystore c:\temp\keys\custom.keystore -trustcacerts -file c:\temp\keys\CACert.cer
When you run this command, you are prompted for the keystore password, as shown:
Enter keystore password: example1234 [Enter] Owner: CN=Thawte Test CA Root, OU=TEST TEST TEST, O=Thawte Certification, ST=FOR TESTING PURPOSES ONLY, C=ZA Issuer: CN=Thawte Test CA Root, OU=TEST TEST TEST, O=Thawte Certification, ST=FOR TESTING PURPOSES ONLY, C=ZA Serial number: 0 Valid from: Thu Aug 01 05:30:00 GMT+05:30 1996 until: Fri Jan 01 03:29:59 GMT+05:30 2021 Certificate fingerprints: MD5: 5E:E0:0E:1D:17:B7:CA:A5:7D:36:D6:02:DF:4D:26:A4 SHA1: 39:C6:9D:27:AF:DC:EB:47:D6:33:36:6A:B2:05:F1:47:A9:B4:DA:EA Trust this certificate? [no]: yes [Enter]
In this example, the instances when you can press Enter are shown in bold.
Moving the Keystore
To move the certificate to a JBoss Application Server directory, copy the generated keystore to the conf directory of your JBoss installation. For example, the directory can be C:\Program Files\jboss-4.0.3\server\default\conf\.
Updating the Configuration File
Before updating the configuration file, shut down JBoss Application Server. The JBOSS_HOME/server/default/deploy/jbossweb-tomcat55.sar/server.xml file contains information about what Web features to enable when the server starts. Inside this file, there is a part that looks similar to the following:
<!-- SSL/TLS Connector configuration using the admin devl guide keystore <Connector port="8443" address="${jboss.bind.address}" maxThreads="100" strategy="ms" maxHttpHeaderSize="8192" emptySessionPath="true" scheme="https" secure="true" clientAuth="false" keystoreFile="${jboss.server.home.dir}/conf/chap08.keystore" keystorePass="rmi+ssl" sslProtocol = "TLS" /> -->
In the code, make the following changes:
Remove the comment from the block of code.
Change the value of Connector port
to 443
(default SSL port).
Change the value of keystoreFile
to the absolute path of the keystore generated in "Generating Keystore".
Change the value of keystorePass
to the password of the keystore.
After the changes are made, the code block looks similar to the following:
<!-- SSL/TLS Connector configuration using the admin devl guide keystore --> <Connector port="443" address="${jboss.bind.address}" maxThreads="100" strategy="ms" maxHttpHeaderSize="8192" emptySessionPath="true" scheme="https" secure="true" clientAuth="false" keystoreFile="${jboss.server.home.dir}/conf/ custom.keystore" keystorePass=" example1234 " sslProtocol = "TLS" /> <!-- -->
SSL is now enabled. You can restart JBoss Application Server and browse to the following URL to verify whether SSL is enabled:
https://localhost:443
You can configure SSL connectivity on Oracle WebLogic Server with either a self-signed certificate or a CA certificate. Perform the procedure described in one of the following sections:
Configuring SSL on Oracle WebLogic Server with a Self-Signed Certificate
Configuring SSL on Oracle WebLogic Server with a CA Certificate
Configuring SSL on Oracle WebLogic Server with a Self-Signed Certificate
To configure SSL connectivity between Oracle Identity Manager on Oracle WebLogic Server and the target system with a self-signed certificate, you must perform the following tasks:
Generating Keystore
To generate the keystore:
Run the following command:
keytool -genkey -keystore ABSOLUTE_KEYSTORE_PATH -alias ALIAS_NAME -keyalg KEY_ALGORITHM -storepass KEYSTORE_PASSWORD -keypass PRIVATE_KEY_PASSWORD
For example:
keytool -genkey -keystore c:\temp\keys\keystore.jks -alias example088196 -keyalg RSA -storepass example1234 -keypass example1234
Note: - The keystore password and the private key password must be the same. - Typically, the alias is the name or the IP address of the computer on which you are configuring SSL. - The alias used in the various commands of this procedure must be the same. |
When prompted, enter information about the certificate. This information is displayed to persons attempting to access a secure page in the application. This is illustrated in the following example:
keytool -genkey -keystore c:\temp\keys\keystore.jks -alias example088196 -keyalg RSA -storepass example1234 -keypass example1234 What is your first and last name? [Unknown]: Must be the name or IP address of the computer What is the name of your organizational unit? [Unknown]: example What is the name of your organization? [Unknown]: example What is the name of your City or Locality? [Unknown]: New York What is the name of your State or Province? [Unknown]: New York What is the two-letter country code for this unit? [Unknown]: US Is <CN=Name or IP address of the computer, OU=example, O=example, L=New York, ST=New York, C=US> correct? [no]: yes
When you enter yes in the last line of the preceding example, the keystore.jks file is created in the c:\temp\keys\directory.
Export the keystore to a certificate file by running the following command:
keytool -export -alias ALIAS_NAME -keystore ABSOLUTE_KEYSTORE_PATH -file CERTIFICATE_FILE_ABSOLUTE_PATH
For example:
keytool -export -alias example088196 -keystore c:\temp\keys\keystore.jks -file c:\temp\keys\keystore.cert
When prompted for the private key password, enter the same password used for the keystore, for example, example1234
.
Import the keystore by running the following command:
keytool -import -alias ALIAS_NAME -keystore NEW_KEYSTORE_ABSOLUTE_PATH -file CERTIFICATE_FILE_ABSOLUTE_PATH
For example:
keytool -import -alias example088196 -keystore c:\temp\keys\new.jks -file c:\temp\keys\keystore.cert
When you run this command, it prompts for the keystore password, as shown in the following example:
Enter keystore password: example1234 [Enter] Trust this certificate? [no]: yes [Enter] Certificate was added to keystore
In this example, the instances when you can press Enter are shown in bold.
Configuring Oracle WebLogic Server
After generating and importing the keystore, start Oracle WebLogic Server. To configure Oracle WebLogic Server:

From the Keystores list, select Custom identity And Java Standard Trust, and then click Continue.
Configure the keystore properties. To do so:
In the Custom Identity Key Store File Name column, specify the full path of the keystore generated in Step 1 of "Generating Keystore", for example, c:\temp\keys\keystore.jks
. In the Custom Identity Key Store Type column, specify the type of keystore, for example, JKS
. In the Custom Identity Key Store Pass Phrase and Confirm Custom Identity Key Store Pass Phrase columns, specify the keystore password.
Provide the Java standard trust keystore pass phrase and the Confirm Java standard trust keystore pass phrase. The default password is changeit
, unless you change the password.
Click Continue.
Specify the private key alias, pass phrase and the confirm pass phrase as the keystore password. Click Continue.
Click Finish.
Restart Oracle WebLogic Server. If the server starts successfully with the SSL configuration, then lines similar to the following are recorded in the startup log:
<Apr 21, 2008 2:35:43 PM GMT+05:30> <Notice> <WebLogicServer> <BEA-000355> <Thread "ListenThread.Default" listening on port 7001, ip address *.*> <Apr 21, 2008 2:35:43 PM GMT+05:30> <Notice> <WebLogicServer> <BEA-000355> <Thread "SSLListenThread.Default" listening on port 7002, ip address *.*>
Note: 7002 is the default SSL port for Oracle WebLogic Server. |
Configuring SSL on Oracle WebLogic Server with a CA Certificate
To configure SSL connectivity between Oracle Identity Manager on Oracle WebLogic Server and the target system with a CA certificate, you must perform the following tasks:
Note: Although this is an optional step in the deployment procedure, Oracle strongly recommends that you configure SSL communication between the target system and Oracle Identity Manager. |
Generating Keystore
The connector requires Certificate Services to be running on the host computer. To generate the keystore:
Run the following command:
keytool -genkey -keystore ABSOLUTE_KEYSTORE_PATH -alias ALIAS_NAME -keyalg KEY_ALGORITHM -storepass KEYSTORE_PASSWORD -keypass PRIVATE_KEY_PASSWORD
For example:
keytool -genkey -keystore c:\temp\keys\keystore.jks -alias example088196 -keyalg RSA -storepass example1234 -keypass example1234
Note: The keystore password and the private key password must be the same. Typically, the alias name is the name or the IP address of the computer on which you are configuring SSL. |
When prompted, enter the information about the certificate. This information is displayed to persons attempting to access a secure page in the application. This is illustrated in the following example:
keytool -genkey -keystore c:\temp\keys\keystore.jks -alias example088196 -keyalg RSA -storepass example1234 -keypass example1234 What is your first and last name? [Unknown]: Must be the name or IP address of the computer What is the name of your organizational unit? [Unknown]: example What is the name of your organization? [Unknown]: example What is the name of your City or Locality? [Unknown]: New York What is the name of your State or Province? [Unknown]: New York What is the two-letter country code for this unit? [Unknown]: US Is <CN=Name or IP address of the computer, OU=example, O=example, L=New York, ST=New York, C=US> correct? [no]: yes
When you enter yes in the last line of the preceding example, the keystore.jks file is created in the c:\temp\keys\directory.
Generate the certificate signing request by running the following command:
keytool -certreq -keystore ABSOLUTE_KEYSTORE_PATH -alias ALIAS_NAME -keyalg KEY_ALGORITHM -file CERTIFICATE_FILE_ABSOLUTE_PATH
For example:
keytool -certreq -keystore c:\temp\keys\keystore.jks -alias example088196 -keyalg RSA -file c:\temp\keys\keystore.cert
When prompted for the keystore password, enter the same password used for the keystore in Step 1, for example example1234
. This stores a certificate request in the file that you specified in the preceding command.
Get the certificate from a CA by using the certificate request generated in the previous step and store the certificate in a file.
Export the keystore generated in Step 1 to a new certificate file, for example, myCert.cer, by running the following command:
keytool –export –keystore ABSOLUTE_KEYSTORE_PATH -alias alias-name specified in step 1 -file CERTIFICATE_FILE_ABSOLUTE_PATH
For example:
keytool –export –keystore c:\temp\keys\keystore.jks -alias example088196 -file c:\temp\keys\myCert.cer
Import the CA certificate to a new keystore by running the following command:
keytool -import -alias ALIAS_NAME -file CERTIFICATE_FILE_ABSOLUTE_PATH -keystore NEW_KEYSTORE_ABSOLUTE_PATH -storepass KEYSTORE_PASSWORD generated in Step 1
For example:
keytool -import -alias example088196 -file c:\temp\keys\rootCert.cert -keystore c:\temp\keys\rootkeystore.jks
When you run this command, it prompts for the keystore password, as shown:
Enter keystore password: example1234 [Enter] Trust this certificate? [no]: yes [Enter] Certificate was added to keystore
In this example, the instances when you can press Enter are shown in bold.
