OID which stands for Oracle Internet Directory is part of Identity Management in Infrastructure Tier of Fusion Middleware. If you are planning to configure 10g Application Server with Apps 11i or R12 , This note might be useful for you in understanding OID . Looking at importance of OID, I am going to discuss on few important things about OID today .

\nOracle Internet Directory (OID) is Oracle’s Implementation of LDAP (Light weight Directory Access Protocol) which is ldap version 3 compliant. OID is special kind of database repository in which information is stored in Tree structure also called DIT (Directory Information Tree).
\nSimilar to OID , Microsoft<\/strong> has its own LDAP server called Active Directory (AD)<\/strong> and Sun’s<\/strong> LDAP server is called as iPlanet<\/strong> .<\/p>\n
\nOID code & its corresponding log files are stored in directories under $ORACLE_HOME\/ldap<\/strong> directory in Infrastructure Tier . This is same tier where your SSO server sits.
\nOID logs are stored at $ORACLE_HOME\/ldap\/log (This location is quite important for apps dba’s for troubleshooting OID Issues<\/strong><\/span>). Few executables like oidctl, oidadmin, oidca, oidldapd<\/strong> are in ORACLE_HOME\/bin<\/strong> .<\/p>\n
\nYou may see different ports for OID depending on OID server version but most common is 389 non ssl OID port & 636 for SSL OID port (These are also default ldap server ports). If you don’t know which ports your OID is using refer portlist.ini<\/strong> in $ORACLE_HOME\/install (Note that this file will not list updated port if you change OID ports after Installation<\/span><\/em><\/strong>)
\nYou should an entry like
\nOracle Internet Directory port = 389
\nOracle Internet Directory (SSL) port = 636<\/p>\n
\n<\/strong><\/u>OID process is controlled by opmn (Oracle process monitor & notification server) so you by default use opmnctl<\/strong> command
\nTo Start OID opmnctl startproc ias-component=OID<\/strong>
\nTo Stop OID opmnctl stopproc ias-component=OID <\/strong><\/p>\n
\nFirst start oidmon<\/strong> (OID Monitor Process)
\nThen use oidctl<\/strong> (OID control)
\nTo stop OID without OPMN
\nFirst stop oid process using oidctl <\/strong>then stop oidmon <\/strong>(OID monitoring process)<\/p>\n
