How to integrate OID Oracle
Identity Management Infrastructure with Other directories and
Applications
Oracle provides two types of Directory Integration services.
- Synchronization: This service keeps other directories
consistent with the central OID server in an enterprise with
multiple LDAP directories.
- Provisioning: This service sends notifications to the
LDAP-enabled applications to reflect changes made to a user�s status
or group information.
The difference between provisioning and synchronization are:
- Synchronization happens at the application deployment time but
provisioning happens at the application design time.
- Synchronization has maintenance effort of high but provisioning
need only a minimal effort, only at installation time.
- Synchronization has two-way communication direction but
provisioning has only one-way and that is from OID to applications.
- Synchronization handles any data in a directory but provisioning
only restricted to provisioned users and groups.
You can create different integration profiles by using the ODM, DIP
assistant, and provisioning subscription tool.
You may use the OIDCTL and ODISRV tools to start your
integration services. The Integration server performs the following
tasks;
- Schedulers connectors
- Data import and export
- Mapping
How to start and stop the Integration server by using oidctl
command:
To start the Integration server:
$ cd $ORACLE_HOME/bin
$ oidctl connect=your-instance server=odisrv instance=2 configset=1
flags=�-p 3060� start
To stop the Integration server:
$ oidctl connect=your-instance server=odisrv instance=2 configset=1
flags=�-p 3060� stop
How to view Integration server details
Use the Oracle Enterprise Manager Application Server Control to view
your Integration server details.
Open Enterprise Manager Application Server Control by using the
following URL:
http://<hostname.domain>:1810 or 1156 etc.
Type the above URL in your address bar. In the login dialog box,
enter username orcladmin with its password and then click the �OK�
button.
When the �farm� page with standalone instances were displayed, click
on the infrastructure instance. In the �System Components� page,
click on the �Internet Directory� or �OID� instance link.
Now, you should be able to click on the �Directory Integration� link
on the �Status� section. The �Directory Integration Profiles� page
will be displayed. |
