Key Points for Oracle Identity Management Installation
1.There are two executable/installers for Oracle Identity Management
—a) Oracle Identity Management (aka IDM) which is currently on version 11.1.1.4 . This installer contains products OID, OVD and OIF
—b) Oracle Identity and Access Management (aka IDAM) which is currently on version 11.1.1.3. This installer contains products OAM, OIM (Identity Manager), OAAM, OIN and OPM
2.IDM 11.1.1.4 (containing OID, OVD and OIF) is patchset which means you must first install base release of IDM i.e. 11.1.1.2
3. IDAM 11.1.1.3 (containing OAM, OIM, OAAM, OPM and OIN) is base release. To install IDAM use steps by step installation guide here
4. If you are installing IDM (OID/OVD/OIF) then SOA suite is NOT required. SOA suite is required for Oracle Identity Manager only which is product from Identity and Access Management Suite (IDAM).
5. If you are planning to install just Oracle Internet Directory (OID) then you can create schema (database schema containing OID data) either before using RCU or during configuration stage (OID configuration stage). For OIF and OVD schema , you must create them before config using RCU
6. For Oracle Identity Management (OIM) 11.1.1.4 installation you would need
a) Database – Oracle 10g , 11g R1 and 11gR2 are supported
b) WebLogic Server – only 10.3.4 (do not use lower or higher version of WebLogic)
c) RCU – 11.1.1.4.X (RCU 11.1.1.4 is available as patch 11060956) . For list of all FMW 11g R1 PS3 patches check here
d) IDM – 11.1.1.2.0
e) IDM 11.1.1.4.0 patch (patch number is (11060980)
7. If you are installing just OID (No DIP or ODSM ) then WebLogic is NOT required.
