2 Integrating Oracle Identity Governance and Oracle Access Manager Using LDAP Connectors

Integrate Oracle Identity Governance (OIG) and Oracle Access Manager (OAM) using LDAP Connectors. You can run an automated integration script to complete OIG-OAM integration or perform configuration operations individually. The script utilizes user-supplied values from property files to perform various configurations.

This chapter provides step-by-step instructions for integrating Oracle Access Manager (Access Manager) and Oracle Identity Governance (Enterprise Edition). Use the automated script for integration if your integrated environment includes LDAP Connectors and any third-party access product. Also you can perform this integration incrementally. When you run each task in the automated integration script separately to complete OIG-OAM integration, you can evaluate the result of each successive step. Rerun the step, if required, or proceed to the next step in the sequence until all steps are successfully completed.

Note:

The exact details in this chapter may differ depending on your specific deployment. Adapt information as required for your environment.

The integration instructions assume Identity Governance components have been configured on separate Oracle WebLogic domains, as discussed in About the Basic Integration Topology. For prerequisite and detailed information on how the components were installed and configured in this example integration, see Preparing to Install and Configure Oracle Identity and Access Management in Fusion Middleware Installing and Configuring Oracle Identity and Access Management

If you are deploying Oracle Identity Governance components in an enterprise integration topology, as discussed in About the Basic Integration Topology, see Understanding an Enterprise Deployment in Oracle Fusion Middleware Enterprise Deployment Guide for Oracle Identity and Access Management for implementation procedures.

This chapter contains these sections:

2.1 Overview of Oracle Identity Governance and Oracle Access Manager Integration

This integration scenario enables you to manage identities with Oracle Identity Governance and control access to resources with Oracle Access Manager. Oracle Identity Governance is a user provisioning and administration solution that automates user account management, whereas Access Manager provides a centralized and automated single sign-on (SSO) solution.

This section contains the following topics:

2.1.1 About Integrating Oracle Identity Governance with Oracle Access Manager

In the Oracle Access Manager (OAM) and Oracle Identity Governance (OIG) integration, users have the capability to:

  • Create and reset the password without assistance for expired and forgotten passwords

  • Recover passwords using challenge questions and answers

  • Set up challenge questions and answers

  • Perform self-service registration

  • Perform self-service profile management

  • Access multiple applications securely with one authentication step

See About Password Management Scenarios.

2.1.2 About Oracle Identity Governance and Oracle Access Manager Single-Node Integration Topology

You must configure IdM components, Access Manager and Oracle Identity Governance, in separate WebLogic Server domains (split domain topology), as discussed in About the Basic Integration Topology, and separate Oracle Middleware homes. Otherwise, attempts to patch or upgrade one product may be blocked by a version dependency on a component shared with another. When you install Oracle Identity Governance components in a single WebLogic Server domain, there is a risk that the component (libraries, jars, utilities, and custom plug-ins) you are installing into the domain might not be compatible with other components, thereby resulting in problems across your entire domain.

Access Manager uses a database for policy data and a directory server for identity data. This integration scenario assumes a single directory server. The directory server must also be installed in a separate domain and a separate Middleware home as well.

Note:

The instructions in this chapter assume that you will use Oracle Unified Directory as the identity store.

2.1.3 Prerequisites to Integrating Oracle Identity Governance and Oracle Access Manager

Ensure the required environment is set and made available for the integration.

In the following sections it is assumed that the required components, as listed in Table 2-1, have already been installed, including any dependencies, and the environment is configured prior to the integration. See Understanding Oracle Identity Management Integration Topologies.

Note:

  • Use 12.2.1.4.0 binaries for OAM and OIG.

  • OUD needs to have the changelog enabled for incremental reconciliation from OIG to work. If this is not enabled, the incremental reconciliation will not work. On a replicated OUD instance, cn=changelog is available by default depending on the condition that this instance contains both directory server and replication server components, which is the default. The changelog has no additional cost since the replication is already up.

    On a non replicated OUD instance, cn=changelog is not available by default because there is a cost in disk and cpu that should not be paid if it is not useful. This can be easily enabled with the following command: 

    $ dsreplication enable-changelog -h localhost -p 4444 -D "cn=directory manager" -r 8989 -b "dc=example,dc=com"

2.3 Configuring Oracle Identity Governance and Oracle Access Manager Integration

The automated script for integration simplifies the process of a connector-based integration between Oracle Identity Governance (OIG) and Oracle Access Manager (OAM) or any third-party access product. You can integrate OIG and OAM with directories such as Oracle Unified Directory (OUD), Oracle Internet Directory (OID) and Active Directory (AD).

This chapter contains the following topics:

2.3.1 Prerequisites for the Connector-based Integration

Prepare the environment ready for the connector-based integration using the automated integration script. Ensure that the system-level requirements are met, 12.2.1.4.0 binaries are installed, OIG-MDS is updated, and the required connector is downloaded.

Verifying the Environment

  • Check that your operating system is up-to-date with all necessary patches applied.

  • Mount the binaries you will be using. The applicable Oracle software includes:

    • Oracle Database 12c (12.2.x.x)

    • JRF 12.2.1.4.0

    • Oracle Identity and Access Management 12c (12.2.1.4.0)

    • Oracle Unified Directory 12c (12.2.1.4.0) /Oracle Internet Directory 12c (12.2.1.4.0)

    • Oracle WebLogic Server 12c (12.2.1.4.0)

    Note:

    • Use 12.2.1.4.0 binaries for OAM and OIG.

    • Apply OAM bundle patch 12.2.1.4.191223 before starting the integrating process.

    • The Oracle HTTP Server with 12c WebGate must be installed.

  • Verify that the Oracle Database is connected and accessible.

  • Verify that the directory of your choice (OUD/OID/AD) is up and running.

  • Verify that the Oracle Access Manager is up and running.

  • Verify that the Oracle Identity Governance is up and running.

  • Verify if the environmental variables are set. See Set Up Environment Variables for OIG-OAM Integration.

  • Ensure that the Oracle Access Manager and Oracle Identity Governance are installed on separate domains.

    Note:

    The automated integration script, OIGOAMIntegration.sh works with OIG and OAM on separate hosts and domains. It is not required to have OIG and OAM on the same domain.
  • Ensure that the screen package is installed on your server by running the following command:
    rpm -qa | grep screen

    If the command does not return information about the screen package version then install the package as follows:

    1. Log on to your Linux server as root
    2. Run yum install screen to install the screen package:
      [root@server]# yum install screen
> Package screen.x86_64 0:4.1.0-0.23.20120314git3c2946.el7_2 will be
installed
Total download size: 552 k
Installed size: 914 k
Is this ok [y/d/N]:

Enter 'y' and press enter.

Downloading packages:
screen-4.1.0-0.23.20120314git3c2946.el7_2.x86_64.rpm

Installed:
screen.x86_64 0:4.1.0-0.23.20120314git3c2946.el7_2

Updating Datasource Related to OIG Meta Data Store (MDS) Configuration

  1. From the WLS Console, navigate to Services, Data Sources, and then to mds-oim.

  2. Click the Connection Pool tab.

  3. Update the following property values in the MDS-OIM connection pool:

    • Initial Capacity to 50

    • Maximum Capacity to 150

    • Minimum Capacity to 50

  4. To update the value for Inactive Connection Timeout:

    In the same datasource, click Advanced link under the bottom of the page and set the Inactive Connection Timeout value to 30.

  5. Click Save.

  6. Click Activate Changes.

Downloading the Connector

  1. Download the Connector bundle from the artifactory: Download Connector Bundle

    • For OID or OUD, download the Connector bundle corresponding to Oracle Internet Directory.

    • For AD, download connector bundle corresponding to Microsoft Active Directory User Management.

    Note:

    For all directory types, the required Connector version for OIG-OAM integration is 12.2.1.3.0.

  2. Unzip the Connector bundle to the desired connector path under $ORACLE_HOME/idm/server/ConnectorDefaultDirectory.

    For example: 

    $ORACLE_HOME/idm/server/ConnectorDefaultDirectory

  3. For AD, install the Active Directory User Management Connector on both, OIG and Connector server.

Note:

Application creation step performs the connector installation. No other install steps are necessary.

Important:

Post OIG-OAM integration, if the LDAP Connector bundle or the Active Directory Connector bundle is used for creating target application instances for other IT resources, then the pre-config.xml corresponding to the directory type must be manually imported from Sysadmin UI before proceeding to create application instance.

  • For OID:

    XML name: OID-pre-config.xml
Location (example): $ORACLE_HOME/idm/server/ConnectorDefaultDirectory/OID-12.2.1.3.0/xml/OID-pre-config.xml

  • For OUD/ODSEE/LDAPV3:

    XML name: ODSEE-OUD-LDAPV3-pre-config.xml
Location (example): $ORACLE_HOME/idm/server/ConnectorDefaultDirectory/OID-12.2.1.3.0/xml/ODSEE-OUD-LDAPV3-pre-config.xml

  • For AD:

    XML name: ad-pre-config.xml
Location (example): $ORACLE_HOME/idm/server/ConnectorDefaultDirectory/activedirectory-12.2.1.3.0/xml//ad-pre-config.xml

For importing pre-config.xml , see Importing Connector XML File.

Assigning Lockout Threshold in Directory and Oracle Access Manager

The value for maximum number of authentication failures that a user is allowed to attempt before the user's account gets locked, should be the same in the LDAP directory and Oracle Access Manager.

2.3.2 Step-by-step Procedure for OIG-OAM Integration Using Automated Script

You can configure OIG-OAM integrated environment by executing the configuration operations individually and incrementally.
The automated integration script, OIGOAMIntegration.sh supports individual execution of OIG-OAM configuration operations. The properties file, ssointg-config.properties located at $ORACLE_HOME/idm/server/ssointg/config/ specifies which individual step is to be executed.

Note:

You must run the OIGOAMIntegration.sh command only on the OIG server.

Prerequisites
Perform step-by-step configuration of the OIG-OAM integrated environment by executing each integration task separately. At the end of each step, verify the log output and confirm that the configuration operation is completed successfully. If the configuration operation fails, apply appropriate fixes and rerun the step before proceeding to the next step in the integration sequence.
Run OIGOAMIntegration.sh, a top-level automated integration script to perform the following operations required for OIG-OAM integration:

The ssointg-config.properties file (Located at $ORACLE_HOME/idm/server/ssointg/config/) provides the required configuration information for OIG and OAM integration. The configuration operations executed by the automated integration script are managed by the ssointg-config.properties file.

Example ssointg-config File

generateIndividualConfigFiles=false
prepareIDStore=true
configOAM=true
populateOHSRules=true
configureWLSAuthnProviders=true
configureLDAPConnector=true
## configureLDAPConnector takes care of updating container rules
## Additional option is provided in case rules need to be updated again
updateContainerRules=true
configureSSOIntegration=true
enableOAMSessionDeletion=true
2.3.2.1 Preparing IDStore Using Automated Script

Prepare IDStore using the automated script for OIG-OAM integration, OIGOAMIntegration.sh.

Configure the identity store and policy store by creating the groups and setting ACIs to the various containers. Add necessary users and associating users with groups to the identity store. This step is similar to running the IDMConfigTool command, idmConfigTool.sh -prepareIDStore -mode=ALL. See prepareIDStore Command.

  1. Update the prepareIDStore.all.config file (Located at $ORACLE_HOME/idm/server/ssointg/config).

    Example prepareIDStore.all.config Properties File 

    ## DIRTYPE values can be [OID | OUD | AD]
IDSTORE_DIRECTORYTYPE
IDSTORE_HOST
IDSTORE_PORT
IDSTORE_BINDDN
IDSTORE_BINDDN_PWD
IDSTORE_USERNAMEATTRIBUTE
IDSTORE_LOGINATTRIBUTE

2.5 Troubleshooting Common Problems in Access Manager and OIG Integration

These sections describe common problems you might encounter in an Oracle Identity Governance and Access Manager integrated environment and explain how to solve them.

In addition to this section, review the Error Messages for information about the error messages you may encounter.

For information about additional troubleshooting resources, see Using My Oracle Support for Additional Troubleshooting Information.

2.5.1 Troubleshooting Single Sign-On Issues in an Access Manager and OIG Integrated Environment

This section describes common problems and solutions relating to single sign-on in the integrated environment. Using single sign-on, a user can access Oracle Identity Governance resources after being successfully authenticated by Access Manager. When accessing any Oracle Identity Governance resource protected by Access Manager, the user is challenged for their credentials by Access Manager using the Oracle Access Management Console login page.

This section discusses the following single sign-on issues:

2.5.1.1 Diagnosing Single Sign-On Issues By Capturing HTTP Headers

Checking the HTTP headers may provide diagnostic information about login issues.You can collect information from the HTTP headers for troubleshooting issues. This can be done by enabling HTTP tracing in the web browser, logging into Access Manager as a new user, and examining the headers for useful information.

2.5.1.2 Access Manager Redirection to OIG Login Page

After accessing an Oracle Identity Governance resource using OHS (for example, http://OHS_HOST:OHS_PORT/identity), the user is redirected to the Oracle Identity Governance login page instead of the Oracle Access Management Console login page.

Cause

The Access Manager WebGate is not deployed or configured properly.

Solution

Confirm the httpd.conf file contains the following entry at the end: 

"include "webgate.conf"

where webgate.conf contains the 12c WebGate configuration.

If this entry is not found, review the WebGate configuration steps to verify none were missed. For more information, see Configuring Oracle HTTP Server WebGate for Oracle Access Manager in Installing WebGates for Oracle Access Manager and Configuring Access Manager Settings in the Administering Oracle Access Management.

2.5.1.3 Access Manager Failure to Authenticate User

User login fails with the following error:

An incorrect Username or Password was specified.

Cause

Access Manager is responsible for user authentication but authentication has failed. The identity store configuration may be wrong.

Solution

Check that the identity store is configured correctly in the Oracle Access Management Console.

To resolve this problem:

  1. Login to Oracle Access Management Console.
  2. Navigate to Configuration >User Identity Stores > OAMIDStore.
  3. Verify the Default Store and System Store configuration.
  4. Click Test Connection to verify the connection.
2.5.1.4 Troubleshooting Oracle Access Management Console Login Operation Errors

User is not directed to the Oracle Access Management Console to login and the following error message appears: 

Oracle Access Manager Operation Error.

Cause 1

The OAM Server is not running.

Solution 1

Start the OAM Server.

Cause 2

The WebGate is not correctly deployed on OHS and is not configured correctly for the 12c Agent located on the OAM Server.

An error message displays, for example: The AccessGate is unable to contact any Access Servers.

The issue may be with the SSO Agent.

See Understanding Credential Collection and Login in Administering Oracle Access Management.

Solution 2

To resolve this problem:

  1. Run oamtest.jar (ORACLE_HOME/idm/oam/server/tester) and test the connection by specifying AgentID.

    The AgentID can be found in ObAccessClient.xml, located in the webgate/config directory in the WEBSERVER_HOME. For example: 

    <SimpleList>
 
        <NameValPair
 
            ParamName="id"
 
            Value="IAMAG_11g"></NameValPair>
 
    </SimpleList>

    If the Tester fails to connect, this confirms a problem exists with the SSO Agent configuration (password/host/port) on the OAM Server.

  2. Re-create the 12c SSO Agent and then reconfigure the WebGate to use this Agent.
2.5.1.5 Troubleshooting Authenticated User Redirection to OIG Login

User authenticated using the Oracle Access Management Console but is redirected to the Oracle Identity Governance login page to enter credentials.

Cause 1

The security providers for the OIG domain are not configured correctly in Oracle WebLogic Server.

Solution 1

Verify the WebLogic security providers are configured correctly for the OIG domain security realm. Check the LDAP Authenticator setting. For more information, see Validating the Oracle Identity Governance Security Provider Configuration.

Cause 2

OAMIDAsserter is not configured correctly in Oracle WebLogic Server.

Solution 2

To resolve this problem:

  1. Log in to the WebLogic Server Administration Console for the OIG domain.
  2. Navigate to Security Realms, myrealm, and then Providers.
  3. Click OAMIDAsserter.
  4. Navigate to Common tab and verify Active Types contains the correct header for the WebGate type:

    OAM_REMOTE_USER for WebGate 12c.

2.5.1.6 User Redirected to OIG During OIG Forgot Password, Register New Account, or Track User Registration Flows

Access Manager relies upon Oracle Identity Governance for password management. If the user logs in for the first time or if the user password is expired, Access Manager redirects the user to the Oracle Identity Governance First Login page.

From the Access Manager login screen, user should be able to navigate to the Oracle Identity Governance Forgot Password, the Self-Registration or Track Registration flows.

Cause

If there is any deviation or error thrown when performing these flows, the configuration in oam-config.xml (OAM_DOMAIN_HOME/config/fmwconfig) is incorrect.

Solution

Verify the contents of oam-config.xml resembles the following example. Specifically, that HOST and PORT corresponds to the OHS (or any supported web server) configured to front-end Oracle Identity Governance resources. 

Setting Name="IdentityManagement" Type="htf:map">
<Setting Name="IdentityServiceConfiguration" Type="htf:map">
<Setting Name="IdentityServiceProvider" Type="xsd:string">oracle.security.am.engines.idm.provider.OracleIdentityServiceProvider</Setting>

<Setting Name="SecureMode" Type="xsd:boolean">false</Setting>
</Setting>
</Setting>
</Setting>
2.5.1.7 User Redirection in a Loop

A new user attempts to access Oracle Identity Management Self-Service and after successful authentication, the user is redirected in a loop. The service page does not load and the browser continues spinning or refreshing.

Cause

OHS configuration setting for WLCookieName for front-ending identity is incorrect.

Solution

Check the OHS configuration for front-ending identity and verify that WLCookieName directive is set to oimjsessionid. If not, set this directive as oimjsessionid for each Oracle Identity Management resource Location entry. For example: 

<Location /identity>
 
  SetHandler weblogic-handler
 
  WLCookieName oimjsessionid
 
  WebLogicHost myhost1.example.com
 
  WebLogicPort 8003
 
  WLLogFile "$
Unknown macro: {ORACLE_INSTANCE}
/diagnostics/logs/mod_wl/oim_component.log"
 
  </Location>
2.5.1.8 Troubleshooting SSO Integration Configuration

Cause

During Configuring SSO Integration execution, the script could fail due to OAM-related issues:

Solution

  1. Verify if OAM server is up.

  2. Ensure that the credentials used for this step are correct.

  3. Check from the console log if it is Error 401--Unauthorized.

  4. Restart OAM admin and managed servers.

  5. Ensure that the sso-config.properties file reflects the following:

    generateIndividualConfigFiles=false
prepareIDStore=false
configOAM=false
addMissingObjectClasses=false
populateOHSRules=false
configureWLSAuthnProviders=false
configureLDAPConnector=false
configureSSOIntegration=true
enableOAMSessionDeletion=false
updateContainerRules=false
  6. Run the following REST API and ensure it responds with the OAM policy application domains.
    http(s)://<oam-admin-server-host>:<oam-admin-server-port>
/oam/services/rest/11.1.2.0.0/ssa/policyadmin/appdomain

    Note:

    The REST API must be run by the user having System Administrator privileges.
    To assign system administrator role to a user, perform the following steps:
    1. Log in to the OAM console.
    2. Click Configuration > Administration > Grant.
    3. Search for the user to whom you are required to provide system administrator privileges. For example, weblogic_idm
    4. Ensure the Role is set to System Administrator.
    5. Click Add Selected.
    6. Go to the configureSSOIntegration.config file and specify the user with system administrator privileges against the IDSTORE_OAMADMINUSER property. For example, IDSTORE_OAMADMINUSER =weblogic_idm
    If the REST endpoint does not repond, or returns Request Failed error, perform the following steps:
    1. Login to the OAM AdminServer WLS Console.
    2. Navigate to Application Deployments.
    3. Select oam-admin, click Update and then click Active.
    4. Stop all OAM domain servers.
    5. Delete the tmp and cache directories under admin, oam and policy manager server.
    6. Start all the oam domain servers and run the REST command again.

    Note:

    Do not progress to the next step unless the specified REST API responds with the OAM policy application domains. Otherwise, the following script may return UnmarshalException.

  7. Run OIGOAMIntegration.sh -configureSSOIntegration.

2.5.1.9 WADL Generation Does not Show Description

Issue

WADL generation fails and a java.lang.IllegalStateException: ServiceLocatorImpl is returned. 
Exception thrown when provider 
class org.glassfish.jersey.server.internal.monitoring.MonitoringFeature$StatisticsListener 
was processing MonitoringStatistics. Removing provider from further processing.

http://<Host>:<ManagedServerPort>/iam/access/api/v1/health/application.wadl

Resolution

Restart the Admin server and managed servers to resolve the wadl issue.

2.5.2 Troubleshooting Auto-Login Issues in an Access Manager and OIG Integrated Environment

The auto-login feature enables user login to Oracle Identity Governance after the successful completion of the Forgot Password or Forced Change Password flows, without prompting the user to authenticate using the new password.

Communication between Oracle Identity Governance and Access Manager can be configured to use Oracle Access Protocol (OAP) or TAP channels. Debugging auto-login issues is simplified if you determine which channel is being used. Determine the channel by examining the Oracle Identity Governance SSOIntegrationMXBean (version attribute) using the System MBean Browser in Oracle Enterprise Manager Fusion Middleware Control. For more information, see "Using the System MBean Browser" in Administering Oracle Fusion Middleware.

Depending upon the Access Manager version being used, the following applies:

  • If the version is 11g, the TAP channel is used during auto-login. See Troubleshooting Oracle Access Protocol (OAP) Issues.

    After a password is reset in Oracle Identity Governance and in LDAP through LDAP synchronization, Oracle Identity Governance redirects the user to the Access Manager TAP endpoint URL (SSOIntegrationMXBean: TAPEndpointUrl). Access Manager will auto-login the user by redirecting to the requested resource.

Note:

In the 12c Oracle Identity Governance and Access Manager integrated environment, the TAP protocol is configured for auto-login by default.

2.5.2.1 Troubleshooting TAP Protocol Issues

Check the OIG Server and Access Manager Server logs for any of the following error messages:

2.5.2.1.1 404 Not Found Error

After resetting the password, user is redirected to a 404 Not Found error page.

Cause

The Access Manager TAP endpoint URL (SSOIntegrationMXBean: TAPEndpointUrl) is configured incorrectly.

Solution

Verify that TAPEndpointUrl is correctly configured in Oracle Identity Governance SSOIntegrationMXBean and is accessible. For example: 

http://OAM_HOST:OAM_PORT/oam/server/dap/cred_submit

Or

http://OHS_HOST:OHS_PORT/oam/server/dap/cred_submit

where Access Manager is front-ended by OHS.

2.5.2.1.2 System Error

After resetting the password, user is redirected to Access Manager TapEndpointUrl (configured in Oracle Identity Governance SSOIntegrationMXBean), and the following error displays in the UI: 

System error. Please re-try your action. If you continue to get this error, please contact the Administrator.

Cause 1

A message similar to the following displays in the Access Manager Server logs: 

Sep 19, 2012 4:29:45 PM EST> <Warning> <oracle.oam.engine.authn>
 
<BEA-000000> <DAP Token not received>
 
<Sep 19, 2012 4:29:45 PM EST> <Error> <oracle.oam.binding> <OAM-00002>
 
<Error occurred while handling the request.
 
java.lang.NullPointerException
 
at
 
oracle.security.am.engines.enginecontroller.token.DAPTokenEncIssuerImpl.issue(DAPTokenEncIssuerImpl.java:87)

Solution 1

This error could be due to mis-configuration in TAPResponseOnlyScheme in Access Manager. Verify oam-config.xml (located at OAM_DOMAIN_HOME/config/fmwconfig) contains the following entry: 

<Setting Name="DAPModules" Type="htf:map">
 
     <Setting Name="7DASE52D" Type="htf:map">
 
         <Setting Name="MAPPERCLASS" Type="xsd:string">oracle.security.am.engine.authn.internal.executor.DAPAttributeMapper</Setting>
 
          <Setting Name="MatchLDAPAttribute" Type="xsd:string">uid</Setting>
 
          <Setting Name="name" Type="xsd:string">DAP</Setting>
 
     </Setting>
 
</Setting>

The value of MatchLDAPAttribute should be uid. If not, change the value.

To resolve the problem:

  1. Login to Oracle Access Management Console.

  2. Navigate to TapResponseOnlyScheme. Add the following as Challenge parameter: 

    MatchLDAPAttribute=uid

  3. Save the changes.

Cause 2

The following error displays in the Access Manager Server logs: 

 javax.crypto.BadPaddingException: Given final block not properly padded

This may occur if OIM_TAP_PARTNER_KEY is not include in the OIG credential map in the credential store, or if an invalid key is present.

Solution 2

Reregister Oracle Identity Governance as a TAP partner with Access Manager by rerunning the OIGOAMIntegration.sh -configureSSOIntegration option. and restart the complete OIG domain.

Cause 3

After resetting the password, if auto-login is not successful, the OIG server logs contain the following error:

 Error occured while retrieving TAP partner key from Credential store

Solution 3

To resolve the problem:

  1. Using Fusion Middleware Control, verify the OIM_TAP_PARTNER_KEY generic credential is present in the OIG credential map in the credential store.
  2. If OIM_TAP_PARTNER_KEY is present, verify that LDAP connector is configured correctly, and that the password is reset in LDAP provider. Check this by issuing an ldapbind command with the user and the new/reset password.

Cause 4

After resetting the password, if auto-login is not successful, the OAM server logs have the following error:

 Error occured while retrieving DAP token from OAM due to invalid TAP partner key

The OIM_TAP_PARTNER_KEY present in the OIG credential map of credential store is not valid.

Solution 4

Reregister Oracle Identity Management as a TAP partner with Access Manager by rerunning OIGOAMIntegration.sh -configureSSOIntegration option. You must restart the complete OIG domain.

Cause 5

After resetting the password, if auto-login is not successful, the OIG server logs may show the following error:

Error occurred when decrypting the DAP token

Solution 5

To resolve the problem, reset TAP encryption key:
  1. Update the oam-config.xml file:
    1. Set the following environment variables for Oracle Access Manager:
      • ORACLE_HOME
      • DOMAIN_HOME
      • JAVA_HOME
      • DB_ORACLE_HOME
    2. Create the prop.properties file.

      The following shows an example of the prop.properties file. 

      oam.entityStore.ConnectString=jdbc:oracle:thin:@dbhost.example.com:1521/servicename.example.com
oam.entityStore.schemaUser=MYPREFIX_OAM
oam.entityStore.schemaPassword=xxxxx
oam.importExportDirPath=/tmp
oam.frontending=params=oamhost.example.com;14100;http
    3. Export oam-config.xml into temporary location (tmp) by running the following command:
      java -cp config-utility.jar:ojdbc8.jar oracle.security.am.migrate.main.ConfigCommand <path to which configuration must be exported> export <prop.properties>

      Example:

      $JAVA_HOME/bin/java -cp $ORACLE_HOME/idm/oam/server/tools/config-utility/config-utility.jar:$DB_ORACLE_HOME/jdbc/lib/ojdbc8.jar oracle.security.am.migrate.main.ConfigCommand $DOMAIN_HOME export /tmp/prop.properties
    4. Open the oam-config.xml file under temp folder in a text editor and update the OIMPartner attribute with OIMPartnerOld attribute.
    5. Import oam-config.xml, into the database by running the following command:
      java -cp config-utility.jar:ojdbc8.jar oracle.security.am.migrate.main.ConfigCommand <path to which configuration must be exported> import <prop.properties>

      Example:

      $JAVA_HOME/bin/java -cp $ORACLE_HOME/idm/oam/server/tools/config-utility/config-utility.jar:$DB_ORACLE_HOME/jdbc/lib/ojdbc8.jar oracle.security.am.migrate.main.ConfigCommand $DOMAIN_HOME import /tmp/prop.properties
  2. Delete OIM_TAP_PARTNER_KEY from the OIG domain using the Oracle Enterprise Manager Fusion Middleware Control.
  3. Reregister Oracle Identity Governance as a TAP partner with Access Manager by rerunning the OIGOAMIntegration.sh -configureSSOIntegration option.
  4. Verify that OIM_TAP_PARTNER_KEY is available in the domain credential store. See Validating the Oracle Identity Governance Domain Credential Store.
  5. Restart OIG and OAM domain.
2.5.2.2 Troubleshooting Oracle Access Protocol (OAP) Issues

Check the OIG Server logs for any of the following types of error messages.

The resource URL is not protected.

Corrective action:

Verify that the correct host:port combination is configured in the Access Manager host identifier configuration.

  1. Log in to the Oracle Access Management Console:

    http://oam_adminserver_host:oam_adminserver_port/oamconsole

  2. In the Oracle Access Management Console, click Application Security at the top of the window.

  3. Click Host Identifiers in the Access Manager section.

    The Search Host Identifiers page is displayed.

  4. Click Search to initiate the search.

  5. Click IAMSuiteAgent in the Search Results table.

  6. Check the host identifiers for host:port combination in the identifier.

  7. IAMSuiteAgent Host Identifier should have a combination of OHS (webserver) host:port which is front-ending Oracle Identity Management.

aaaClient is not initialized.

Corrective action:

Verify that the passwords seeded into OIG domain credential store are correct. For OPEN mode, check for the WebGate password. For SIMPLE mode, check that SSO keystore password and SSO global passphrase are seeded in correctly. For more information, see Validating the Oracle Identity Governance Domain Credential Store.

Failed to communicate with any of configured OAM Server.

Corrective action:

  • Verify that it is up and running.

  • Verify that the passwords seeded into OIG domain credential store are correct.

  • For OPEN mode, check for the WebGate password.

  • For SIMPLE mode, check that SSO keystore password and SSO global passphrase also are seeded in correctly.

See Validating the Oracle Identity Governance Domain Credential Store.

SSOKeystore tampered or password is incorrect.

Corrective action:

  • Check that the keystore file ssoKeystore.jks is present in OIM_DOMAIN_HOME/config/fmwconfig.

  • If present, then check if the keystore password is seeded properly into OIG domain credential store.

See Validating the Oracle Identity Governance Domain Credential Store.

Oracle Identity Management logs do not have any information about the failure.

Corrective action:

  • Enable HTTP headers and capture the headers while running through the First Login, Forgot Password flows. See Diagnosing Single Sign-On Issues By Capturing HTTP Headers.

  • In the HTTP headers, look for Set-Cookie: ObSSOCookie after the POST method on the First Login, Forgot Password page. Check the domain of the cookie. It should match with the domain for the protected resource URL.

  • If cookie domain is different, update the CookieDomain in the Oracle Identity Management SSO configuration using Fusion Middleware Control. See Validating the Oracle Identity Governance SSO Configuration Settings.

  • If cookie domain is correct, then check for any time differences on the machines which host the OIG and OAM Servers.

2.5.3 Troubleshooting Session Termination Issues

The session termination feature enables the termination of all active user sessions after the user status is modified by an Oracle Identity Management administrator. The following Oracle Identity Management operations lead to session termination: user lock, disable or delete.

To troubleshoot session termination issues:

  • Verify the OAM REST URL, http://<OAM_HOST>:<OAM_PORT>/oam/services/rest/access/api/v1/session?userId=<uid>is accessible.

    Here, OAM_HOST refers to SSOIntegrationMXBean: AccessServerHost and OAM_PORT refers to SSOIntegrationMXBean: OAMServerPort

  • Verify if OAM Admin has authorization to invoke OAM REST API (SSOIntegrationMXBean: OAMAdminUser).

  • Verify in oam-config.xml in OAM domain that UserStore in SessionRuntime points to IDStore created during integration.

  • Verify /db/sssointg/EventHandlers.xml is in Oracle Identity Governance MDS. See Validating the Oracle Identity Governance Event Handlers Configured for SSO.

2.5.4 Troubleshooting Account Self-Locking Issues

Use Case 1

Both LDAP store and Access Manager lock out the user due to multiple failed login attempts. The user attempts to reset his or her password using the Oracle Identity Governance (OIG) "Forgot Password" page, but the reset operation fails.

Possible explanation: the user's locked status has not yet propagated to Oracle Identity Governance.

  1. Check if the user is locked in Oracle Identity Governance:

    1. Log in to the Identity Self Service application as an Oracle Identity Governance administrator.

    2. Navigate to the Users section, then search for the user.

    3. Check if the Identity status is locked.

  2. If the status is not locked, run a SSO User Incremental Reconciliation scheduled job, and then confirm that the user status is locked.

Use Case 2

The user account self-locks due to multiple invalid credentials login attempts. Later, when the user attempts to log in with the correct credentials, he or she is not able to log in. The user expects to log in first and then change the password, but login fails consistently.

Possible explanation: both LDAP directory and Access Manager may have locked the user account. In this case the user cannot log in to Oracle Identity Governance or to any protected page. The user has to use the Forgot Password flow to reset the password.

Note that if only Access Manager locks out the user, the user can log in to Oracle Identity Governance and change the password immediately.

Use Case 3

The LDAP directory pwdMaxFailure count of three is less than the oblogintrycount value of five. The LDAP directory locks out the user due to multiple invalid credentials login attempts (in this case, three attempts). Later, when the user tries to log in with the correct credentials, on the fourth attempt the user still cannot log in. The user expects to log in first and then change the password, but login fails consistently.

Possible explanation: LDAP directory locked out the user, but Access Manager did not. The user cannot log in with the correct password even though the oblogintrycount is less than five, but following the Forgot Password flow works and resets the password.

Note that when LDAP directory locks out the user there is nothing to reconcile into OIG, because OIG does not reconcile user accounts that are locked in LDAP store. When LDAP store locks the user, OIG shows the user as active. Following the Forgot Password flow is the only way to reset the password.

Use Case 4

The LDAP directory pwdMaxFailure count value of seven is less than the oblogintrycount value of five. Access Manager locked out the user due to multiple invalid credentials login attempts. Later, when the user tries to login with the correct credentials, the user is able to log in and is redirected to change the password, but the reset password operation fails.

Possible explanation: the user locked status has not yet propagated to OIG.

  1. Check if the user is locked in OIG:

    1. Login to Identity Self Service application as an OIG administrator.

    2. Navigate to Users section, then search for the user.

    3. Check if the Identity status is locked.

  2. If the status is not locked, run a SSO User Incremental Reconciliation scheduled job, and then confirm that the user status is locked.

Note that use case one and this use case look similar. In use case one, both LDAP directory and Access Manager locked the user account, whereas in this use case only Access Manager locks the user. The remedy for both use cases is the same, however.

Use Case 5

The user cannot remember his or her password and tries to reset the password using the Forgot Password flow. The user provides his or her user login, provides a new password, and provides incorrect challenge answers. After three failure attempts, both LDAP directory and Access Manager lock the user. The user expects to get locked out after five attempts instead of three attempts because the oblogintrycount value is 5.

Possible explanation: the password reset attempts in the OIG Reset/Forgot Password flow are governed by the OIG system property XL.MaxPasswordResetAttempts and the default value is 3. Consequently, the user is locked out immediately after three attempts. OIG locks the user natively in LDAP directory and in Access Manager.

Note that password reset attempts are different from login attempts. Login attempts are governed by Access Manager (oblogintrycount=5) and password reset attempts by OIG (XL.MaxPasswordResetAttempts=3).

Use Case 6

LDAP directory locks the user because some constant LDAP binding used incorrect credentials. Access Manager does not lock out the user. When the user tries to log in with the correct credentials, he is not able to log in.

Possible explanation: LDAP directory locks the user out in this use case, not Access Manager. The user cannot log in with the correct password even if the oblogintrycount is still less than 5, but the user can reset his or her password by following the Forgot Password flow.

Note that when a user is only locked out by LDAP directory, the user's lock-out status is not reconciled into OIG. Consequently, the user shows up as still active in OIG even though the user is locked in LDAP directory.

Use Case 7

When the user resets his password, the password reset is not immediate.

  1. The user account self-locks due to multiple invalid credentials login attempts.

  2. The user uses the Forgot Password flow to reset the password.

  3. The user account is still locked, and he is not able to login to Oracle Identity Governance.

Possible explanation: the user's locked status has not yet propagated to OIG.

  1. Check if the user is locked in OIG:

    1. Login to Identity Self service application as an OIG administrator.

    2. Navigate to the Users section, and then search for the user.

    3. Check if the Identity status is locked.

  2. If the status is not locked, run an SSO User Incremental Reconciliation scheduled job, and then confirm that the user status is locked.

2.5.5 Troubleshooting Miscellaneous Issues in an Access Manager and OIG Integrated Environment

This provides solutions for the following miscellaneous issues:

2.5.5.1 Client Based Oracle Identity Governance Login Failure

For successful client-based login to Oracle Identity Governance:

2.5.5.2 Logout 404 Error Occurs After Logging Out of OIG protected Application

If logging out of an Oracle Identity Governance protected application throws a 404 error, verify that the logout configuration is present in jps-config.xml. See Validating the Oracle Identity Governance SSO Logout Configuration.

If needed, the JPS configuration can be fixed by editing the jps-configuration file located in $DOMAIN_HOME/config/fmwconfig and then restarting all the servers.

To resolve a misconfiguration in jps-config.xml:

  1. In a terminal window issue the following commands: cd $$ORACLE_HOME <OIG_INSTALL_LOCATION>/oracle_common/common/bin
  2. ./wlst.sh
  3. connect()
  4. addOAMSSOProvider(loginuri="/${app.context}/adfAuthentication", logouturi="/oamsso/logout.html", autologinuri="/obrar.cgi")
  5. exit
  6. Restart all servers in the domain.

    See Starting and Stopping Admin Server in Administering Oracle Fusion Middleware

2.5.5.3 Old Password Remains Active After Password Reset

In Active Directory environments, old passwords can remain active for up to one hour after a password reset. During this interval, both the old and new password can successfully bind to the Active Directory server. This is the expected behavior.

2.5.5.4 OIG Configuration Failure During Seeding of OIG Policies into Access Manager

As part of running OIGOAMIntegration.sh -configureSSOIntegration, Oracle Identity Governance policies are seeded into Access Manager using the Access Management exposed REST endpoint.

An exception while seeding Oracle Identity Governance policies occurs when the user credentials used for accessing Access Manager exposed endpoint does not have enough privileges to perform the operation.

The solution is as follows:

  1. Make sure IDSTORE_WLSADMINUSER is the same user which was used while running the prepareIdStore mode=wls command.
  2. Try to access the Access Manager REST endpoint using curl command:
    curl -u weblogic_idm:password "http://OAM_ADMIN_HOST:OAM_ADMIN_PORT/oam/services/rest/11.1.2.0.0/ssa/policyadmin/appdomain"

    Where:

    • weblogic_idm is the user as mentioned for IDSTORE_WLSADMINUSER and password is the password for the user.

    If this command fails to return the list of application domains present in Access Manager, then make sure configOAM is run properly and the Access Manager admin server is restarted before running OIGOAMIntegration.sh -configureSSOIntegration.

2.5.5.5 Adding Object Classes Fails

When you run the OIGOAMIntegration.sh -addMissingObjectClasses to add the object class. It fails with the following error: 

ldap_bind: Invalid credentials (49)

Cause

This error occurs when you provide additional space for the IDSTORE_BINDDN property in the addMissingObjectClasses.config file.

Example

IDSTORE_BINDDN:cn=Directory Manager

Solution

  1. Ensure that you provide the double quotation marks (") at the beginning and end for the IDSTORE_BINDDN property.

    Example

    IDSTORE_BINDDN:cn="Directory Manager"
  2. Replace the following lines from the addMissingObjectClasses function in the _OIGOAMIntegration.sh script:
    COMMAND="ldapsearch -h $IDSTORE_HOST -p $IDSTORE_PORT -D $IDSTORE_BINDDN -w $IDSTORE_BINDDN_PWD -b $IDSTORE_USERSEARCHBASE -s sub $FILTER dn"
echo "Executing ldapsearch..."
echo $COMMAND
$COMMAND | grep "dn:" > ${ALL_USERS}

    With the following lines:

    LDAP_COMMAND="ldapsearch -h $IDSTORE_HOST -p $IDSTORE_PORT -D "$IDSTORE_BINDDN" -w $IDSTORE_BINDDN_PWD -b $IDSTORE_USERSEARCHBASE -s sub $FILTER dn"
COMMAND=$(ldapsearch -h $IDSTORE_HOST -p $IDSTORE_PORT -D "$IDSTORE_BINDDN" -w $IDSTORE_BINDDN_PWD -b $IDSTORE_USERSEARCHBASE -s sub $FILTER dn)
echo "Executing ldapsearch..."
echo $LDAP_COMMAND
echo $COMMAND | grep "dn:" > ${ALL_USERS}

2.5.6 Troubleshooting Target Account Creation

The target account creation may fail due to some known reasons. This section helps you troubleshoot and solve some known issues while creating a target account and resetting password in OUD.

Container rules are not configured in SSOIntegrationMXBean

Corrective action:

  • Execute addContainerRules operation manually against SSOIntegrationMXBean.

  • Or update the appropriate configuration file and run one of the following scripts:

    • $ORACLE_HOME/idm/server/ssointg/bin/OIGOAMIntegration.sh -configureLDAPConnector

    • $ORACLE_HOME/idm/server/ssointg/bin/OIGOAMIntegration.sh -updateContainerRules

Application Instance is not created

Corrective action:

  • Create the Application Instance manually. For more information, see Creating Target Application Instance.

  • Or update the appropriate configuration file and run the following script:
    $ORACLE_HOME/idm/server/ssointg/bin/OIGOAMIntegration.sh -configureLDAPConnector

LDAP server is not running

Corrective action: Start the LDAP server

Directory is not seeded

Corrective action:

Update the appropriate configuration file and run the following script:
$ORACLE_HOME/idm/server/ssointg/bin/OIGOAMIntegration.sh -prepareIDStore

mds-oim connection pool is unable to allocate another connection

Corrective action:

  • From the WebLogic console, navigate to Services>Data Sources>mds-oim>Connection Pool.

  • On the Connection Pool page, increase the values of Initial Capacity, Minimum Capacity, and Maximum Capacity.

  • Click Save.

  • On the Connection Pool page, select Advanced link available at the bottom of the page.

  • On the Advanced page, set the value of Inactive Connection Timeout to a non-zero value, for example 10.

  • Click Save

Resetting password in OUD

When the System Administrator manually locks a user in OIG, the attributes obLockedOn and pwdAccountLockedTime are set for the user in OUD. If the System Administrator resets the user's password, pwdAccoundLockedTime is cleared in the OUD. This is a default behavior in OUD.

When the pwdAccoundLockedTime attribute is cleared, the user status gets updated to unlocked after user reconciliation in OIG. However, obLockedOn is still set in OUD and OAM treats this user as locked.

Corrective action:

It is recommended to lock (or unlock) the user from OIG. This scenario is applicable only to reset password for a manually locked-user. It does not apply to change password for self-locked user where user is locked due to failed password attempts.

2.5.7 Troubleshooting prepareIDStore for AD

Error

Schema in ADUserSchema.ldif fails to load.

This error appears when running the following script step.

oracle.ldap.util.LDIFLoader loadOneLdifFile INFO: Ignoring Error: javax.naming.directory.InvalidAttributeValueException: [LDAP: error code 19 - 00002082: AtrErr: DSID-03151817, #1: 0: 00002082: DSID-03151817, problem 1005 (CONSTRAINT_ATT_TYPE), data 0, Att90094 (schemaIDGUID):len 26 ]; remaining name 'cn=oblocationdn,cn=schema,cn=configuration,DC=interop55,DC=us,DC=oracle,DC=com'

Solution

  1. Edit ADUserSchema.ldif and replace %IDSTORE_SEARCHBASE% with DC=interop55,DC=my,DC=org,DC=com

  2. Run the LDAP command to load them into AD

    ldapmodify -h 192.0.2.1 -p 389 -D Administrator@interop -w <password> -f
ADUserSchema.ldif -c -x

Problem

In AD environment, the object classes such as oblixgroup are not loaded after -prepareIDStore step is run.

Solution

  1. Navigate to $ORACLE_HOME/idm/server/ldif/prepareidstore/AD/schema

  2. Edit ADUserSchema.ldif and replace %IDSTORE_SEARCHBASE% with the location in the directory where users and groups are stored. For example, dc=example,dc=com

    .

  3. Run the LDAP command

    ldapmodify -h <activedirectoryhostname> -p <activedirectoryportnumber> -D 
<AD_administrator> -f ADUserSchema.ldif -w <password> -c -x

    where AD_administrator is the user with schema extension privileges to the directory.

    Example:

    ldapmodify -h activedirectoryhost.example.com -p 389 -D adminuser -f 
ADUserSchema.ldif -w password -c -x

SSO Post Enable Jobs

OIG offers post enable jobs to seed identities and their relation from OIG to LDAP.

The post enable jobs are to be used in case of following deployment scenario: OIG is already been in deployment for certain period of time and OIG is now being integrated with OAM and LDAP. During such scenarios, the existing users and roles and their relations in OIG needs to seeded to synchronize LDAP with data in OIG. After OIG-OAM integration configuration has been performed, these jobs should be run once to seed the users, roles and their relationships to LDAP.

The following post enable jobs are offered:

  • SSO Post Enable Provision Users to LDAP:

    For each user in OIG, this job creates an user in LDAP and provisions SSO target application instance to the user.

  • SSO Post Enable Provision Roles to LDAP:

    For each role in OIG, this job creates a role in LDAP and subsequently creates a lookup, entitlement and catalog entry for the entitlement.

  • SSO Post Enable Provision Role Membership to LDAP:

    For each role granted to the user, this job grants entitlement (corresponding to the role) and in-turn grants the membership for the user in LDAP.

  • SSO Post Enable Provision Role Hierarchy to LDAP:

    For each role-role relation in OIG, this job adds relationship for the groups in LDAP.

Reconciliation Behavior

User Reconciliation

User reconciliation reconciles user (and account) from the LDAP. For each user reconcilied, it provisions SSO target application instance to the reconciled user. User reconciliation job reconcilies users that have following objectclasses:

  • InetOrgPerson

  • orclIDXPerson

  • OblixOrgPerson

  • OblixPersonPwdPolicy

  • OIMPersonPwdPolicy

For user reconciliation, set the value for the two mandatory attributes: sn and uid.

User Matching rule:

User reconciliation job uses following reconciliation matching rule for creating or updating users in OIG:
<matchingRule>((UPPER(USR.usr_ldap_guid)=UPPER(RA_SSOTRUSTEDFORSSAEC4C34A.RA_LDAPGUID94FE1B62)) OR (UPPER(USR.usr_login)=UPPER(RA_SSOTRUSTEDFORSSAEC4C34A.RA_USERLOGIN7C7B96D4)))</matchingRule>

Account Matching rule:

User reconciliation job uses following reconciliation matching rule for provisioining SSO target application instance account to an user in OIG:
<matchingRule>((UPPER(USR.usr_login)=UPPER(RA_SSOTARGE.RA_USERLOGIN7C7B96D4)) OR (UPPER(USR.usr_ldap_guid)=UPPER(RA_SSOTARGE.RA_ORCLGUID)))</matchingRule>

Group Reconciliation

Group reconciliation job reconciles groups that have following two objectclass:

  • groupOfUniqueNames - in case of OID and OUD

  • group - in case of AD

Group reconciliation job requires that group names are unique in OIG. That is, when the job reconciles a create changelog for a group with name 'Business Administrator' and if OIG already has a role with name 'Business Administrator', then Business Administrator group would not be created again in OIG and the reconciled role will be skipped from further processing.

Alternatively, if a group exists in OIG that has a matching GUID with the group being reconciled from LDAP, then reconciliation engine would perform an update for the existing group in OIG.

Group Matching Rule:
<matchingRule>(UD_SSO_GR.UD_SSO_GR_SERVER=RA_SSOGROUP4DF6ECEE.RA_ITRESOURCENAME70C9F928 and UD_SSO_GR.UD_SSO_GR_ORCLGUID=RA_SSOGROUP4DF6ECEE.RA_ORCLGUID)</matchingRule>

Group Membership Reconciliation

Group membership reconciliation reconciles the current role grants for user in LDAP. On successful reconciliation, for each role granted to the user, an entitlement corresponding to the role is assigned to the user's SSO account.

Entitlement assignment to the user during reconciliation is executed by database trigger for child form table. This child form table stores the membership grants for the user (i.e. account). In some circumstances, the entitlement assignment trigger may not have executed and hence, the user may not have the entitlement assignment yet corresponding to the role grant reconciliation. In such scenarios, execute 'Entitlement Assignment' job to assign entitlments.

Group Hierarchy Reconciliation

Group hierarchy reconciliation job reconcilies current role relations from LDAP.

Reconciliation Job Errors and Remedial Actions

  • Group membership reconciliation

  • Group hierarchy reconciliation

Group membership reconciliation

Group membership Full reconciliation

  • The user entry which is reconciled is looked up in OIG corresponding to it's GUID. If no matching user is found, recon event creation for that user entry is skipped and an error message corresponding to the skipped user entry is added to job error messages.

  • If the user entry is present but one of the parent roles, with matching role DN, is not existing in OIG, then recon event creation for that user entry is skipped and an error message corresponding to the skipped user entry is added to job error messages.

If there are no missing parent roles for an user entry, then recon event is created for the user entry and added to batch recon service. Once reconciliation job, error message is set for the Job ID.

Group membership Incremental reconciliation

Group membership incremental reconciliation has same behavior as group membership full reconciliation. In addition to reporting the error message, incremental reconciliation also doesn't update the latest incremental token. This is to ensure that when the job is re-run (after performing remedy actions such as running user or group reconciliation jobs), then the user entry(s) which were skipped earlier are assigned a recon event during their next error-free execution.

In situations where customer decide to bypass the error-encountered user entry and want to run incremental reconciliation with latest incremental token, they can do so by checking the schedule job error message from the job UI and the latest token will be printed at the end of the error message. Refer 'Example for reconciliation error due to missing user or role'

Group hierarchy reconciliation

Group Hierarchy Full reconciliation

  • The role entry which is reconciled is looked up in OIG corresponding to it's GUID. If no matching role is found, recon event creation for that role entry is skipped and an error message corresponding to the skipped user entry is added to job error messages

  • If the role entry is present but one of the child roles, with matching role DN, is not existing in OIG, then recon event creation for the parent role entry is skipped and an error message corresponding to the skipped user entry is added to job error messages.

If there are no missing parent or child roles, then recon event is created for the parent role entry and added to batch recon service.

Once reconciliation job completes, error message is set for the Job ID.

Group Hierarchy Incremental reconciliation

Group hierarchy incremental reconciliation has same behavior as group hierarchy full reconciliation. In addition to reporting the error message if dataErrorDetected is true, incremental reconciliation also doesn't update the latest incremental token. This is to ensure that when the job is re-run (after performing remedy actions), then the role entry(s) which were skipped earlier are assigned a recon event during their next error-free execution.

In situations where customer decide to bypass the error-encountered role entry and want to run hierarhcy incremental reconciliation with latest incremental token, they can do so by checking the schedule job error message from the job UI and the latest token will be printed at the end of the error message.

Example for Reconciliation Error due to Missing User or Role

Let's assume Group Membership Incremental Reconciliation is executed and the scheduled task identifies that some of the groups, whose membership is to be reconciled, doesn't exists in OIG yet. In such scenario, the scheduled task skips the creation of recon event for the role and adds the GUID of the role to the list of data error messages. Once all the group changelog has been processed, the scheduled task proceeds to submit batch reconciliation for the roles that did not encounter such error (i.e. did not encounter role or user not existing in OIG). For the roles that encountered error, the scheduled task compiles the error message and throws an exception. The outcome is:
The scheduled job status would be failed.
For the job that failed, the 'View error details' would have the list of the roles that were skipped. The last line of the message will have the latest incremental token that was processed by the scheduled task. Sample error message:
oracle.iam.connectors.icfcommon.exceptions.OIMException:
Role with GUID 54A78A7F44E41C39E053211CF50A7639 does not exist in OIM. Skipping group membership incremental reconciliation for the role

Latest Token value: <Integer>4204</Integer>

Corrective Actions for Reconciliation Error

  • Customer can execute 'SSO Group Create or Update Reconciliation' job to fix the above errors and re-run group membership incremental reconciliation job. Similarly, execute 'SSO User Reconciliation' job if the error message relates to 'user not existing in OIG'.

  • Alternatively, if customer prefer to ignore the error for these roles and would like to proceed beyond with incremental reconciliation in future, then customer can set the Sync Token job parameter value to the latest token value listed in the error message. For example, for the above sample message, the Sync Token job parameter value would be:  <Integer>4204</Integer>

  • In case of group membership full reconciliation or group hierarchy full reconciliation, if any of the user(s) and/or group(s) reconciled does not exist in OIG, then the job would report failed status for the missing user and/or group in all subsequent runs.

Ensuring identity Tables Data Synchronization With Child Form Tables

During group membership reconciliation and group hierarchy reconciliation, the reconciliaiton engine updates the child form table corresponding to each recon event data in reconciliation batch. When reconciliation engine triggers post process orchestration for each reconciliation batch, the post process handlers fetches the child form entry corresponding to each recon event in batch and updates OIG's identity relation tables.

Under situations where reconciliaiton post process handler fails to synchronize the child form data with identity table, it is possible to remediate the data inconsistence between the tables by executing following jobs:

  • Sync Group Membership with SSO Form Table:

    For each user in parent form, this job synchronizes membership child form data with USG table. This job accepts an 'Group Membership Child Form Table' name as input parameter and it is assigned a default value. If membership child form table name is different in customer's deployment, then this parameter has to be assigned with appropriate value.

  • Sync Group Hierarchy with SSO Form Table:

    For each role in parent form, this job synchronizes role relationship data with GPG table. Child form table name for role relationship is fixed for a deployment and hence, this job does not accept child form table name as input.
