To check the readiness of the server, the necessary prerequisite libraries, packages, operating-system parameter values configured as required by the Oracle Identity and Access Management software.
To check the sanity of your Oracle Identity and Access Management environment after installation:
To verify the connections between various tiers, Identity and Access Management databases, Identity and Access Management LDAP, and so on.
To verify the results of the execution of some basic functionality such as, account provisioning in corporate directory, Single Sign-On (SSO) to Out-Of-The-Box consoles, and so on.
To check the parameters of your deployment after patching or upgrade of the software.
To help you verify your Oracle Identity and Access Management environment at various stages of its life cycle, a checklist capturing relevant aspects, has been introduced.
The purpose of the manual checklist is to ensure that you do not miss out on any of the important steps while performing a deployment.

In addition, there are checklists for specific scenarios, such as deploying Oracle Unified Directory, deploying Oracle Access Manager with a LDAP, and deploying Oracle Identity Manager with a LDAP.
