If you are installing on a UNIX system, and if this is the first time any Oracle product is being installed on your system with the Oracle Universal Installer, you will be asked to provide the location of an inventory directory. This is where the installer will set up subdirectories and maintain inventory data for each Oracle product that is installed on this system.
Follow the instructions in Table 3-1 to configure the inventory directory information:
Table 3-1 Inventory Directory and Group Screens
Screen | Description |
---|---|
Specify Inventory Directory |
Specify the Oracle inventory directory and group permissions for that directory. The group must have write permissions to the Oracle inventory directory. Click OK to continue. |
Inventory Location Confirmation |
Run the createCentralInventory.sh script as root. Click OK to continue. |
Note:
If you do not want to use the central inventory, you can create the oraInst.loc file, add the custom location of the inventory, and run the runInstaller by using the following command:runInstaller -invPtrLoc <full location to oraInst.loc>
This topic describes directories you must identify in most Oracle Identity Management installations and configurations—it does not describe one particular Installer screen. During installation, you will have to identify other component-specific directories not described in this topic.
The common directories described in this section include the following:
Identify the location of your Oracle Middleware Home directory. The Installer creates an Oracle Home directory for the component you are installing under the Oracle Middleware Home that you identify in this field. The Installer also creates an Oracle Common Home directory under the Oracle Middleware Home. The Oracle Common Home contains the binary and library files required for Oracle Enterprise Manager Fusion Middleware Control and Oracle Java Required Files (JRF). There can be only one Oracle Common Home within each Oracle Middleware Home.
The Oracle Middleware Home directory is commonly referred to as MW_HOME.
Note:
To install Oracle Identity Management components in an existing Oracle WebLogic Server administration domain, each Oracle Middleware Home directory in the domain must have identical directory paths and names.Enter a name for the component's Oracle Home directory. The Installer uses the name you enter in this field to create the Oracle Home directory under the location you enter in the Oracle Middleware Home Location field. The Installer installs the files (such as binaries and libraries) required to host the component in the Oracle Home directory.
The Oracle Home directory is commonly referred to as ORACLE_HOME.
Note:
To install Oracle Identity Management components in an existing Oracle WebLogic Server administration domain, each Oracle Home directory in the domain must have identical directory paths and names.Enter the path to your Oracle WebLogic Server Home directory. This directory contains the files required to host the Oracle WebLogic Server. It is commonly referred to as WL_HOME.
Note:
To install Oracle Identity Management components in an existing Oracle WebLogic Server administration domain, each Oracle WebLogic Server Home directory in the domain must have identical directory paths and names.Enter the path to the location where you want to create the Oracle Instance directory. The Installer creates the Oracle Instance directory using the location you enter in this field and using the name you enter in the Oracle Instance Name field. Do not enter a path to an existing directory that contains files—if you enter a path to an existing directory, that directory must be empty.
The Installer installs the component's configuration files in the Oracle Instance directory. Runtime components will write only to this directory. You can identify any location on your system for the Oracle Instance directory—it does not have to reside inside the Oracle Middleware Home directory.
Enter a name for the Oracle Instance directory. The Installer uses the name you enter in this field to create the Oracle Instance directory at the location you specify in the Oracle Instance Location field. This directory is commonly referred to as ORACLE_INSTANCE.
Instance names are important because Oracle Fusion Middleware uses them to uniquely identify instances. If you install multiple Oracle Fusion Middleware instances on the same computer, for example, an Oracle Identity Management instance and an Oracle WebLogic Server instance, you must give them different names.
The name you enter for the Oracle Instance directory must:
Contain only alphanumeric and underscore (_) characters
Begin with an alphabetic character (a-z or A-Z)
Consist of 4-30 characters
Not contain the hostname or IP address of the computer
Note:
You cannot change the Oracle Instance name after installation.If you want to install an Oracle Identity Management 11g Release 1 (11.1.1) component against an existing Oracle Identity Management 11g Release 1 (11.1.1) component, you may need to identify the ports for the existing component. For example, if you want to install Oracle Directory Integration Platform 11g Release 1 (11.1.1) against an existing Oracle Internet Directory 11g Release 1 (11.1.1) component, you must identify its port when you install Oracle Directory Integration Platform.
You can get information about ports using the following:
WebLogic Server Administration Console.
Log in to the Administration Console. Click on Servers under Environment to see what ports are in use for the Administration Server and Managed Servers.
Note:
For Oracle Internet Directory, you cannot get information about ports using WebLogic Server Administration Console.$ORACLE_INSTANCE
/config/OPMN/opmn/ports.prop
Note:
If you change a component's port number after installation, the ports.prop file is not updated.The $ORACLE_INSTANCE/bin/opmnctl
status -l command to see port numbers of components managed by Oracle Process Manager and Notification Server (OPMN).
This topic explains the steps that are common to completing most Oracle Identity Management installations and configurations. It begins with the steps on the Installation Summary screen and ends after the Installation Complete screen.
When the Installation Summary screen appears, perform the following steps to complete the installation:
Verify the installation and configuration information on the Installation Summary screen.
Click Save to save the installation response file, which contains your responses to the Installer prompts and fields. You can use this response file to perform silent installations.
Note:
The installation response file is not saved by default—you must click Save to retain it.Click Install. The Installation Progress screen appears.
Monitor the progress of your installation. The location of the installation log file is listed for reference. After the installation progress reaches 100%, the Configuration Progress screen appears.
Note:
On UNIX systems, after the installation progress reaches 100%, a confirmation dialog box appears with information about the oracleRoot.sh script. Execute the script in different terminal and continue to the Configuration Progress screen. For more information, see the "Executing the oracleRoot.sh Script on UNIX Platforms" topic in the Oracle Fusion Middleware Installation Guide for Oracle Identity Management.Monitor the progress of the configuration. The location of the configuration log file is listed for reference. After the configuration progress reaches 100%, the Installation Complete screen appears.
By default the installation summary file, which can help you get started with administration, is saved to the OUI_INVENTORY/logs/ directory. The filename is of the form: installSummaryDATE.txt. This file contains information about the configuration, such as locations of install directories and URLs for management components.
If desired, you can click the Save button on the Installation Complete screen and choose a different name and location for the file.
Click Finish to close and exit the Installer.
After installing Oracle Identity Management 11g Release 1 (11.1.1), if you want to configure the minimum (lowest) level of maximum heap size (-Xmx
) required for Oracle WebLogic Server to host Oracle Identity Management components, perform the steps in this section.
Note:
This is an optional step, typically performed only for test, development, or demonstration environments.This procedure applies to OID, OVD, ODSM, ODIP, and OIF only.
The minimum (lowest) levels for maximum heap size are:
Oracle WebLogic Administration Server: 512 MB
Oracle WebLogic Managed Server: 256 MB
Perform the following steps to configure the heap size for Oracle WebLogic Administration Servers and Oracle WebLogic Managed Servers:
Open the setDomainEnv script
(.sh
or .bat
) in the MW_HOME/user_projects/domains
/DOMAIN_NAME/bin/ directory
.
Locate the last occurrence of the EXTRA_JAVA_PROPERTIES
entry.
In the last occurrence of the EXTRA_JAVA_PROPERTIES
entry, locate the last occurrence of heap size parameters: -Xmx
, -Xms
, and so on.
Note:
These are the heap size parameters for the Oracle WebLogic Administration Server.Set the heap size parameters (-Xms
and -Xmx
) for the Oracle WebLogic Administration Server as desired, for example: -Xms256m
and -Xmx512m
To set the heap size parameters for the Oracle WebLogic Managed Server, enter the text in Example 3-1 immediately below the last occurrence of the EXTRA_JAVA_PROPERTIES
entry and:
Set the heap size parameters (-Xms
and -Xmx
) as desired, for example: -Xms256m -Xmx256m
Replace wls_ods1
with the name of the Oracle WebLogic Managed Server hosting Oracle Directory Services Manager.
Replace wls_oif1
with the name the Oracle WebLogic Managed Server hosting Oracle Identity Federation.
Save and close the setDomainEnv
script.
Restart the Oracle WebLogic Administration Server and the Oracle WebLogic Managed Server by referring to Starting the Stack.
Note:
On UNIX systems, if you execute theps -ef
command and grep
for AdminServer
or the name of the Oracle WebLogic Managed Server (for example, ps -ef | grep AdminServer
or ps -ef | grep wls_oif1
), the output contains multiple occurrences of heap size parameters (-Xmx and -Xms).
Be aware that the last occurrence of the heap size parameters in the output are effective and have precedence over the preceding occurrences.
The Installer writes log files to the ORACLE_INVENTORY_LOCATION/logs
directory on UNIX systems and to the ORACLE_INVENTORY_LOCATION\logs
directory on Windows systems.
On UNIX systems, if you do not know the location of your Oracle Inventory directory, you can find it in the ORACLE_HOME/oraInst.loc
file.
On Microsoft Windows systems, the default location for the inventory directory is C:\Program Files\Oracle\Inventory\logs
.
The following install log files are written to the log directory:
installDATE-TIME_STAMP
.log
installDATE-TIME_STAMP
.out
installActionsDATE-TIME_STAMP

Note:
Starting the Installer as theroot
user is not supported.Perform the following steps to start an Oracle Identity Management installation:
Extract the contents of the iamsuite.zip
file to a directory. By default, this directory is named iamsuite
.
Move to the Disk1
directory under the iamsuite
folder.
Start the Installer by executing one of the following commands:
UNIX: <full path to the runInstaller directory>/runInstaller -jreLoc <Middleware Home>/jrockit_160_05_R27.6.2-20/jre
Windows: <full path to the setup.exe directory>\ setup.exe -jreLoc <Middleware Home>\jrockit_160_05_R27.6.2-20\jre
Note:
The installer prompts you to enter the absolute path of the JDK that is installed on your system. When you install Oracle WebLogic Server, thejrockit_160_05_R27.6.2-20
directory is created under your Middleware Home. You must enter the absolute path of the JRE folder located in this JDK when launching the installer. For example, on Windows, if the JRE is located in D:\oracle\Middleware\jrockit_160_05_R27.6.2-20
, then launch the installer from the command prompt as follows:
D:\setup.exe -jreLoc D:\oracle\Middleware\jrockit_160_05_R27.6.2-20\jre
If you do not specify the -jreLoc
option on the command line when using the Oracle JRockit JDK, the following warning message is displayed:
-XX:MaxPermSize=512m is not a valid VM option. Ignoring
This warning message does not affect the installation. You can continue with the installation.
After the Installer starts, the Welcome screen appears. Continue by referring to the appropriate procedure in this document for the installation you want to perform.
To start the Oracle Fusion Middleware Configuration Wizard, which is used to configure Oracle Identity Management products in a new or existing WebLogic administration domain, run the <IDM_Home>/common/bin/config.sh
script (on UNIX). On Windows, run the <IDM_Home>\common\bin\config.bat
script. The Oracle Fusion Middleware Configuration Wizard is displayed.
Note:
When you run theconfig.cmd
or config.sh
command, the following error message might be displayed:
*sys-package-mgr*: can't create package cache dir
The error message indicates that the default cache directory is not valid. You can change the cache directory by including the -Dpython.cachedir=<valid_directory>
option in the command line.

This topic describes directories you must identify in most Oracle Identity Management installations and configurations—it does not describe one particular Installer screen. During installation, you will have to identify other component-specific directories not described in this topic.
The common directories described in this section include the following:
Identify the location of your Oracle Middleware Home directory. The Installer creates an Oracle Home directory for the component you are installing under the Oracle Middleware Home that you identify in this field. The Oracle Middleware Home directory is commonly referred to as MW_HOME.
Enter a name for the Oracle Home directory of the component. The Installer uses the name you enter in this field to create the Oracle Home directory under the location you enter in the Oracle Middleware Home Location field.
The Installer installs the files required to host the component, such as binaries and libraries, in the Oracle Home directory. The Oracle Home directory is commonly referred to as ORACLE_HOME.
Note:
Avoid using spaces in the directory names, including Oracle Home. Spaces in such directory names are not supported.The Installer creates this directory under the location you enter in the Oracle Middleware Home Location field.
The Installer installs the Oracle Java Required Files (JRF) required to host the components, in the Oracle Common directory. There can be only one Oracle Common Home within each Oracle Middleware Home. The Oracle Common directory is commonly referred to as oracle_common.
A WebLogic domain includes a special WebLogic Server instance called the Administration Server, which is the central point from which you configure and manage all resources in the domain. Usually, you configure a domain to include additional WebLogic Server instances called Managed Servers. You deploy Java components, such as Web applications, EJBs, and Web services, and other resources to the Managed Servers and use the Administration Server for configuration and management purposes only.
Managed Servers in a domain can be grouped together into a cluster.
The directory structure of a domain is separate from the directory structure of the WebLogic Server home. It can reside anywhere; it need not be within the Middleware home directory. A domain is a peer of an Oracle instance.
The Oracle Fusion Middleware Configuration Wizard creates a domain in a directory named user_projects under your Middleware Home (MW_HOME).
Enter the path to your Oracle WebLogic Server Home directory. This directory contains the files required to host the Oracle WebLogic Server. It is commonly referred to as WL_HOME.
If you want to install an Oracle Identity Management 11g Release 1 (11.1.1) component against an existing Oracle Identity Management 11g Release 1 (11.1.1) component, you may need to identify the ports for the existing component. For example, if you want to install Oracle Identity Manager 11g Release 1 (11.1.1) against an existing Oracle Internet Directory 11g Release 1 (11.1.1) component, you must identify its port when you install Oracle Identity Manager.
