8.3 Postupgrade Steps

Postupgrade steps involve uploading new connector JAR files, configuring the upgraded IT resource of the source connector, deploying and reconfiguring the Connector Server, and deleting duplicate entries for lookup definitions.

Note:

If you have not retained the customizations, you must reapply them after you upgrade the connector.

Perform the following procedure:

  1. Run the Oracle Identity Manager Upload JARs utility to post the new connector bundle and lib JARs to the Oracle Identity Manager database.

    Note:

    You can download the JARs from Oracle Technology Network Website (OTN) website. See Downloading the Connector Installation Package for more information.
    • Upload bundle/org.identityconnectors.faidentityservice-12.3.0.jar as an ICFBundle
    • Upload bundle/ org.identityconnectors.fauserrequestservice-12.3.0.jar as an ICFBundle

    See Also: Upload JAR Utility in Oracle Fusion Middleware Developing and Customizing Applications for Oracle Identity Governance for detailed information about the Upload JARs utility

  2. If the connector is deployed on a Connector Server, then:
    • Stop the Connector Server.
    • Replace the existing connector bundle and lib JARs located in the CONNECTOR_SERVER_HOME/bundles directories respectively with the new connector bundles (bundle/org.identityconnectors.faidentityservice-12.3.0.jar and bundle/org.identityconnectors.fauserrequestservice-12.3.0.jar) from the connector installation media.
    • Start the Connector Server.
  3. Reconfigure the IT resource of the connector if the IT resource details are updated.
  4. Replicate all changes as in the previous version of the connector process form in a new UI form as follows:
    • Log in to Oracle Identity System Administration.
    • Create and activate a sandbox.
    • Create a new UI form to view the upgraded fields.
    • Associate the newly created UI form with the application instance of your target system. To do so, open the existing application instance for your resource from the form field, select the form (created in Step 4 c), and then save the application instance.
    • Publish the sandbox and perform full reconciliation.
  5. Delete the duplicated lookup entries that are generated while upgrading the connector.

    The following are the list of lookup definitions.

    • Lookup.FAIdentityService.Configuration
    • Lookup.FAIdentityService.UM.ProvAttrMap
    • Lookup.FAIdentityService.UM.ReconAttrMap
    • Lookup.FAUserRequestService.UM.ReconAttrMap.Trusted
    • Lookup.FAUserRequestService.UM.ReconAttrMap.TrustedDefaults
    • Lookup.FAUserRequestService.Configuration.Trusted

      Perform the postupgrade procedure in Managing Connector Lifecycle of Oracle Fusion Middlware Administering Oracle Identity Governance.

  6. Perform full reconciliation or delete reconciliation.
