8 Upgrading the Fusion Apps Connector

If you have already deployed the 11.1.1.5.0 version of this connector, then you can upgrade the connector to version 12.2.1.3.0 by uploading the new connector JAR files to the Oracle Identity Manager database.

You can upgrade the Fusion Apps Connector while in production, and with no downtime. Your customizations remain intact, and the upgrade will be transparent to your users. All form field names are preserved from the legacy connector.

Note:

• Before you perform the upgrade procedure, it is strongly recommended that you create a backup of the Oracle Identity Manager database. Refer to the database documentation for information about creating a backup.
• As a best practice, first perform the upgrade procedure in a test environment.

The following sections discuss the procedure to upgrade the connector:

• Preupgrade Steps
• Upgrade Steps
• Postupgrade Steps
