What Security Components Are Installed By Default?

After installing Oracle BI Applications on the Oracle BI EE platform, you get the following ready-to-use security components.

  • Oracle WebLogic Server LDAP, containing a set of default Enterprise Roles.

    This LDAP also contains system Users that are required for BI components.

  • A Policy Store that contains default Duty Roles for all of the Offerings, Functional Areas, and Modules that are available in Oracle BI Applications.

For illustrative purposes, it is assumed that you are using the default WebLogic Server LDAP and Policy Store to deploy Oracle BI Applications. For example, you might use the default security components for testing, and then migrate the Users and Enterprise Roles to a different LDAP (for example, Oracle Internet Directory) for production. If you to deploy a different LDAP, such as Oracle Internet Directory, then you can migrate Users and Enterprise Roles from WebLogic Server LDAP to that LDAP.
