Add Oracle Access Manager/Oracle Internet Directory

You can add Oracle Access Manager/Oracle Internet Directory entities using the Add Entity UI or using the cloud agent command line interface (omcli) with the appropriate JSON files.

Step 1: Prepare Oracle Access Manager/Oracle Internet Directory for monitoring.

Prerequisites and Monitoring Credentials

The same credentials are used to discover the WebLogic Domain.

Note:

Refresh of IDM targets is now supported. To refresh any IDM domain run omcli refresh_entity agent ./idm_domain.json

where the content of idm_domain.json is:
{ "entities":[
{
"name": "Idm Domain",
"type": "omc_weblogic_domain"
}
]}

Step 2: Add the Oracle Access Manager/Oracle Internet Directory using omcli and the Appropriate JSON Files

  1. Download and extract the required JSON file(s) from the master JSON zip file. See the table below for the specific JSON files you'll need.
  2. Edit the file(s) and specify the requisite properties shown below.
    Oracle Internet Directory (OID)/Oracle Access Manager (OAM) JSON Files and Properties

    Definition File: omc_weblogic_domian.json

    • displayName: WebLogic Domain Entity Display Name that is displayed in the Infrastructure Monitoring UI time zone.
    • Region: Time Zone (tz database time zones). For example: America/New_York.

    • password: WebLogic Domain Entity Password.
  3. Add the entity using omcli.
    omcli add_entity agent DEFINITION_FILE [-credential_file CREDENTIAL_FILE [-encryption_method_gpg]]
  4. Verify the status of the newly added entity. 
    omcli status_entity agent DEFINITION_FILE

See step 4. Adding Entities to Your Service of Add Entities Using JSON Files for more information.

Step 3: (Optional but recommended) Set up alerts.

To enable lights-out monitoring, you can set up alert rules to generate alerts and send notifications if your entities have performance issues.

See Set Up Alert Rules and Set Up Alert Thresholds and Notifications.
