Oracle Unified Directory 11g Release 1 (11.1.1) Limitations
Oracle Unified Directory is the newest member of the Oracle Directory Server product family. This next-generation directory server is designed for performance (fast reads and writes), scalability (vertical and horizontal), ease of use, robust availability, extensibility (numerous plug-in points), security, and maintenance.
Oracle Unified Directory 11g Release 1 (11.1.1) can function in one of the three modes:
As an LDAP directory server, which contains data.
As an LDAP proxy server, where the server acts as an interface between the client and the directory server that contains the data.
As a replication gateway between Oracle Unified Directory and Oracle Directory Server Enterprise Edition.
For specific information about installing the Oracle Unified Directory 11g Release 1 (11.1.1) software, see Oracle Fusion Middleware Installation Guide for Oracle Unified Directory.
Oracle Directory Integration Platform consists of a set of services and interfaces that facilitates synchronization and provisioning solutions between the directory and other repositories.
If you want to use Directory Integration Platform to enable synchronization for Oracle Unified Directory, you need to enable the Oracle Unified Directory changelog. For more information about how to enable the changelog in Oracle Unified Directory, see the Oracle Fusion Middleware Administration Guide for Oracle Unified Directory.
Directory Integration Platform synchronization can be described as follows:
Synchronization between Oracle Unified Directory and Oracle Internet Directory
Synchronization between Oracle Unified Directory and Third-Party Directories
Oracle Directory Integration Platform 11.1.1.5 and higher supports synchronization between Oracle Internet Directory and Oracle Unified Directory. For more information about the synchronization procedure, see the chapter, Integrating with Oracle Directory Server Enterprise Edition in the Directory Integration Platform Administrator's guide. Oracle Directory Server Enterprise Edition was formerly known as the Sun Java System Directory Server. You need to replace all references of SJSDS in the guide to OUD for synchronization to work accurately.
To enable integration of Oracle Directory Integration Platform with Oracle Unified Directory, you need to apply a patch. This patch is tracked through Bug 12427612. For more information about the patch, see the readme bundled with the patch for Bug 12427612.
