• The preferred type of security store for security artifacts, including policies and credentials, is now Oracle Platform Security Services (OPSS) in Oracle Database 11g Release 2 (11.2.0.1 or later), rather than Oracle Internet Directory.

Other Significant Changes in This Document for 11g Release 1 (11.1.1)

For 11g Release 1 (11.1.1), this guide has been reorganized and updated in several ways:

• The topology has changed to eliminate the SOAHOST1 and SOAHOST2 hosts. The Oracle SOA Suite Managed Servers are installed and configured on the same two host machines as other managed servers, WCCHOST1 and WCCHOST2. See Section 1.1, "Overview of the Enterprise Deployment Reference Topology."

• The order of extending the domain with Managed Servers has changed to focus more on Oracle WebCenter Content. See Section 1.6, "Roadmap for the Reference Topology Installation and Configuration."

• Reassociating the policy story and identity store with an external LDAP provider has been moved to a new chapter, before any of the domain extensions. See Chapter 8, "Creating a Domain for an Enterprise Deployment."

• Some chapters have been revised for consistency with Oracle Fusion Middleware enterprise deployment guides for other products. See Chapter 3, "Preparing the Network for an Enterprise Deployment," and Chapter 4, "Preparing the File System for an Enterprise Deployment."
