13.3 Domain Extension Scenarios

The following lists the scenarios in which you can extend an existing Oracle Identity Management domain to support new Oracle Identity Management products:

13.3.1 Extending an Oracle Identity Management 11.1.1.3.0 Domain to Support OIM, OAM, OAAM, OAPM or OIN on the Local Machine

It is assumed that you have installed the latest versions of Oracle WebLogic Server and Oracle Identity Management before patching your Oracle Identity Management software to 11.1.1.3.0.

After the installation is complete, you must run the Patch Set Installer for Oracle Identity Management Suite to update your software to the latest version.

For instructions, go to "Applying the Latest Oracle Fusion Middleware Patch Set with the Patch Set Installers" in Oracle Fusion Middleware Patching Guide.

You should have installed and configured the Oracle Identity Management 11.1.1.3.0 products (Oracle Internet Directory, Oracle Virtual Directory, Oracle Directory Services Manager, Oracle Directory Integration Platform, or Oracle Identity Federation), before attempting to extend the 11.1.1.3.0 domain to support Oracle Identity Manager, Oracle Access Manager, Oracle Adaptive Access Manager, Oracle Authorization Policy Manager, or Oracle Identity Navigator.

This scenario involves the following tasks:

  1. Installing the latest version of Oracle SOA 11g Suite (for Oracle Identity Manager only), as described in Installing the Latest Version of Oracle SOA Suite (Oracle Identity Manager Users Only).

  2. Installing the Oracle Identity Management Suite under your existing Middleware Home, as described in Installing OIM, OAM, OAAM, OAPM, and OIN (11.1.1.3.0).

  3. Creating and loading the necessary schemas for the new components to be added, as described in Creating Database Schema Using the Oracle Fusion Middleware Repository Creation Utility (RCU).

  4. Launching the Oracle Fusion Middleware Configuration Wizard <Oracle_IDM2>/common/bin/config.sh script on UNIX (<Oracle_IDM2>\common\bin\config.cmd on Windows).

  5. Selecting the Extend an existing WebLogic domain option on the Welcome screen.

  6. Selecting the existing Oracle Identity Management 11.1.1.3.0 domain on the Select a WebLogic Domain Directory screen.

  7. Selecting the required domain templates on the Select Extension Source screen to support Oracle Identity Manager, Oracle Access Manager, Oracle Adaptive Access Manager, Oracle Identity Navigator, or Oracle Authorization Policy Manager.

  8. Modifying JDBC component schemas, configuration of Managed Servers, Deployments and Services, and so on.

  9. Starting the Administration Server on the local machine, as described in Starting or Stopping the Oracle Stack.

  10. Starting Managed Servers, as described in Starting or Stopping the Oracle Stack.

Note:

When you extend an existing WebLogic domain to support Oracle Identity Manager, you should restart the Administration Server before launching the Oracle Identity Manager Configuration Wizard to configure Oracle Identity Manager Server.

13.3.2 Understanding Joint Configuration and Domain Extension Scenarios for OIM, OAM, OAAM, OAPM, and OIN on the Local Machine

It is assumed that you have installed the latest versions of Oracle WebLogic Server and the Oracle Identity Management Suite. For Oracle Identity Manager, you should have installed the latest version of Oracle SOA 11g Suite. You should have created and loaded the necessary schemas by using Oracle Fusion Middleware Repository Creation Utility (RCU).

You should have configured a new domain to support any of the various combinations of Oracle Access Manager (OAM), Oracle Adaptive Access Manager (OAAM), Oracle Identity Navigator (OIN), and Oracle Authorization Policy Manager (OAPM).

For example, you can configure Oracle Identity Manager in an existing Oracle Identity Management domain that contains Oracle Access Manager or Oracle Identity Navigator.

Several combinations are possible, based on your Oracle Identity Management environment and deployment.

This scenario involves the following tasks:

  1. Creating and loading the necessary schemas for the new components to be added, as described in Creating Database Schema Using the Oracle Fusion Middleware Repository Creation Utility (RCU).

  2. Launching the Oracle Fusion Middleware Configuration Wizard <Oracle_IDM2>/common/bin/config.sh script on UNIX (<Oracle_IDM2>\common\bin\config.cmd on Windows).

  3. Selecting the Extend an existing WebLogic domain option on the Welcome screen.

  4. Selecting the existing Oracle Identity Management domain (the domain that contains any of the various combinations of Oracle Access Manager, Oracle Adaptive Access Manager, Oracle Identity Navigator, and Oracle Authorization Policy Manager) on the Select a WebLogic Domain Directory screen.

  5. Selecting the required domain templates on the Select Extension Source screen to support Oracle Identity Manager, Oracle Access Manager, Oracle Adaptive Access Manager, Oracle Identity Navigator, or Oracle Authorization Policy Manager. The choice of domain templates in this step depends on the component you are trying to configure in the same domain.

  6. Modifying JDBC component schemas, configuration of Managed Servers, Deployments and Services, and so on.

  7. Starting the Administration Server on the local machine, as described in Starting or Stopping the Oracle Stack.

  8. Starting Managed Servers, as described in Starting or Stopping the Oracle Stack.

Note:

When you extend an existing WebLogic domain to support Oracle Identity Manager, you should restart the Administration Server before launching the Oracle Identity Manager Configuration Wizard to configure Oracle Identity Manager Server.
