3. IDM Installation ‐ Part 1

After setting up the database schemas for IDM, we can then create the IDM application. But First, we need to prepare the provisioning program, then setting all parameters, and finally running the actual provisioning.

Important
Create a root folder called oracle, and give its ownership to user oracle. Then put JDK6 under this folder. All IDM software components are installed under this folder.


xxxxxxxxxx
(as root)
mkdir /oracle
chown oracle:oracle /oracle
su - oracle
unzip <stage>/installers/jdk/jdk6 /oracle

Webgate libraries

It is required to put these files to <STAGE>/installers/webgate explicitly:


xxxxxxxxxx
libgcc_s.so.1
libstdc++.so.5
libstdc++.so.6

In the local lib64 folder, you can find the symbolic link of these files, and make a copy to the webgate folder:


xxxxxxxxxx
cp /lib64/libgcc_s-4.1.2-20080825.so.1 <stage>/installers/webgate/libgcc_s.so.1
cp /usr/lib64/libstdc++.so.5.0.7 <stage>/installers/webgate/libstdc++.so.5
cp /usr/lib64/libstdc++.so.6.0.8 <stage>/installers/webgate/libstdc++.so.6

redhat-release content

Change content of /etc/redhat-release to
Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server release 5.11 (Final)

install RPM

Run as root, install these RPM (they are not available in CentOS):


xxxxxxxxxx
rpm -Uvh libaio-devel-0.3.106-5.x86_64.rpm
rpm -Uvh sysstat-7.0.2-13.el5.x86_64.rpm

Now all prereq are set, and we can start the provisioning now.

Install IDM Provisioning Wizard

The provisioning program is called Identity Management Lifecycle Management (IDM LCM), and it is under folder installers/idmlcm.


xxxxxxxxxx
su - oracle
cd <stage>/installers/idmlcm/idmlcm/Disk1/
./runInstaller -jreLoc /oracle/jdk6 &

You will be prompted to create Oracle Inventory, just follow the instructions. The Wizard will restart again.
In the pre-requisite check, it will ensure these packages are installed in the OS:


xxxxxxxxxx
binutils-2.17.50.0.6
compat-libstdc++-33-3.2.3-x86_64
compat-libstdc++-33-3.2.3-i386
elfutils-libelf-0.125
elfutils-libelf-devel-0.125
gcc-4.1.1
gcc-c++-4.1.1
glibc-2.5-12-x86_64
glibc-2.5-12-i686
glibc-common-2.5
glibc-devel-2.5-x86_64
glibc-devel-2.5-12-i386
libaio-0.3.106-x86_64
libaio-0.3.106-i386
libaio-devel-0.3.106
libgcc-4.1.1-x86_64
libgcc-4.1.1-i386
libstdc++-4.1.1-x86_64
libstdc++-4.1.1-i386
libstdc++-devel-4.1.1
make-3.81
sysstat-7.0.0

Install the LCM files under /oracle/idm
Finish the installation. A new folder is created /oracle/idm/Oracle_IDMLCM1.
