This chapter describes how to upgrade Oracle Virtual Directory in a high availability environment.
The upgrade steps vary slightly depending on whether you are registering with a domain and the location of the domain. Refer to the following for more information:
Upgrading Oracle Virtual Directory When Using a Local Oracle WebLogic Server Domain
Upgrading Oracle Virtual Directory When Using a Remote Oracle WebLogic Server Domain or No Domain
Before you begin using the procedures in this chapter, note the following.
Assumptions About the Active-Active Oracle Virtual Directory Upgrade
This chapter describes how to upgrade Oracle Virtual Directory in an active-active high-availability environment.
In this type of high availability environment, you upgrade Oracle Virtual Directory on two independent hosts. In this example, the two hosts are identfied as IDMHOST1 and IDMHOST2.
The procedures included here assume that Oracle Virtual Directory is the only component being upgraded in the Oracle Application Server 10g topology and that the Oracle Virtual Directory 10g intance and the Oracle Virtual Directory 11g instance are on the same host.
Upgrading Oracle Virtual Directory With and Without an Oracle WebLogic Server Domain
In Oracle Fusion Middleware 11g, you can optionally register Oracle Virtual Directory with an Oracle WebLogic Server domain. However, if you want to manage Oracle Virtual Directory with Oracle Enterprise Manager Fusion Middleware Control, then you must register the Oracle Virtual Directory instance with a domain.
Further, you can register Oracle Virtual Directory with a local or remote Oracle WebLogic Server domain. The registration can be completed during the upgrade or as a post-upgrade step.
The following procedure describes how to upgrade Oracle Virtual Directory in a high availability environment when you are planning to create a new, local Oracle WebLogic Server domain as part of the Oracle Virtual Directory installation and upgrade process.
In this scenario, you create an Oracle WebLogic Server domain on IDMHOST1 along with the first Oracle Virtual Directory instance. Then, you install and configure the second Oracle Virtual Directory instance on IDMHOST2 and register the second Oracle Virtual Directory instance with the domain on IDMHOST1.
To upgrade Oracle Virtual Directory in this scenarios, refer to the following tasks:
Task 1: On IDMHOST1, Optionally Install Oracle WebLogic Server and Create the Middleware Home
Task 2: On IDMHOST1, Install and Configure Oracle Virtual Directory 11g
Task 3: On IDMHOST1, Upgrade the Oracle Virtual Directory Instance to 11g
Task 4: On IDMHOST2, Install and Configure the Second Oracle Virtual Directory Instance
Task 5: On IDMHOST2, Upgrade the Second Oracle Virtual Directory Instance
If you want to associate the upgraded Oracle Virtual Directory instances with Oracle WebLogic Server, you must first install Oracle WebLogic Server and create the Middlewareware home.
To install Oracle WebLogic Server and create the middleware home, refer to "Installing Oracle WebLogic Server" in the Oracle Fusion Middleware Installation Guide for Oracle Identity Management.
For more information about the Middleware home, see "Understanding Oracle Fusion Middleware Concepts" in the Oracle Fusion Middleware Administrator's Guide.
When you install Oracle WebLogic Server, make a note of the complete path to the Middleware home. You will need this information later in the upgrade procedure.
To install and configure Oracle Virtual Directory, in preparation for upgrade:
Locate the Oracle Identity Management CD–ROM.
Alternatively, you can download and unpack the installation kit from the Oracle Technology Network:
http://www.oracle.com/technology/
If you are installing from the CD–ROM, then navigate to the root directory of the CD–ROM.
Or, if you downloaded and unpacked the software from the Oracle Technology Network, then change directory to the Disk1
directory in the location where you unpacked the software.
Start Oracle Universal Installer:
On UNIX systems, enter the following command to install Repository Creation Utility:
./runInstaller
On Windows systems, double-click the setup.exe
file.
Refer to Table 10-1 for specific instructions about how to respond to each screen in the Oracle Identity Management installation and configuration tool.
For more information, refer to the Oracle Fusion Middleware Installation Guide for Oracle Identity Management or click Help for general information about the prerequisites and prompts required during an Oracle Virtual Directory installation.
When the installation and configuration is complete, exit from the Oracle Identity Management installation and configuration tool.

The following procedure describes how to upgrade Oracle Virtual Directory in a high availability environment in either of the following scenarios:
When you are planning to register the Oracle Virtual Directory environment with an existing remote Oracle WebLogic Server domain (on the host other than the hosts where Oracle Virtual Directory is installed).
When you are planning to install and configure the Oracle Virtual Directory environment in standalone mode (with no Oracle WebLogic Server domain).
This procedure assumes you either have a remote Oracle WebLogic Server domain already installed and configured on a remote host, or you have no plans to register Oracle Virtual Directory with Oracle WebLogic Server.
To upgrade Oracle Virtual Directory in these scenarios, refer to the following tasks:
Task 1: On IDMHOST1, Install and Configure Oracle Virtual Directory 11g
Task 2: On IDMHOST1, Upgrade the Oracle Virtual Directory Instance to 11g
Task 3: On IDMHOST2, Install and Configure the Second Oracle Virtual Directory Instance
