Installing Oracle Identity and Access Management 11g Release 1 (11.1.1.7.0) for High Availability
See:
The "Related Documents" section in this guide's Preface for a list of documents that provide additional information about Oracle Identity and Access Management components.
This guide does not explain how to upgrade previous versions of Oracle Identity and Access Management components, including any previous database schemas, to 11g Release 1 (11.1.1.7.0). To upgrade an Oracle Identity and Access Management component that is earlier than 11g, refer to Oracle Fusion Middleware Upgrade Guide for Oracle Identity and Access Management.
If you have an existing Oracle Identity and Access Management 11g Release 1 installation, refer to the "Patching Oracle Identity and Access Management" topic in the Oracle Fusion Middleware Patching Guide.
This guide does not explain how to install Oracle Identity and Access Management components in High Availability (HA) configurations. To install an Oracle Identity and Access Management component in a High Availability configuration, refer to Oracle Fusion Middleware High Availability Guide.
Specifically, see the "Configuring High Availability for Identity and Access Management Components" topic in the Oracle Fusion Middleware High Availability Guide.
In addition to the standard graphical installation option, you can perform silent installation of the Oracle Identity and Access Management 11g software. A silent installation runs on its own without any intervention, and you do not have to monitor the installation and provide input to dialog boxes.
For more information, see Appendix F, "Performing a Silent Installation".
This topic provides information about the state of Oracle Identity and Access Management components after installation, including:
By default, most of the Oracle Identity and Access Management 11g components are not installed with SSL configured. Only Oracle Adaptive Access Manager is configured with SSL. For other components, you must configure SSL for the Oracle WebLogic Administration Server and Oracle WebLogic Managed Server after installation.
See:
The "SSL Configuration in Oracle Fusion Middleware" topic in the Oracle Fusion Middleware Administrator's Guide for more information.
By default, the passwords for all Oracle Identity and Access Management components are set to the password for the Oracle Identity and Access Management Instance. For security reasons, after installation, you should change the passwords of the various components so they have different values.
See:
The following documents for information about changing passwords for Oracle Identity and Access Management components:
The "Getting Started Managing Oracle Fusion Middleware" topic in the Oracle Fusion Middleware Administrator's Guide.
Component-specific guides listed in the "Related Documents" section in this guide's Preface.
Each document in the Oracle Fusion Middleware Documentation Library has a specific purpose. The specific purpose of this guide is to explain how to:
