Bulk load of users for Portal

hi
We have an Oracle database which we use a third party payroll application on. This database contains employee info and looks to be the perfect for getting the details to create portal sign ons. We are running Portal 9.0.2.3 on AIX 5.1 and I would like to know - how do I do a bulkload into OID so that all our employees can have a sign on to our company Portal. I have seen the ldif file - but I cannot see how I can create one from raw data in a table.
Has anyone overcome this before??
thanks for any info!

You should look at the Oracle Internet Directory (OID) Administrator's manual - which has a whole Part dedicated to discussing the Oracle Directory Integration Platform.
What you are looking for is very similar to the connector for Oracle HR, which is discussed in Chapter 33.
However, it will not be the same, so some slight modifications will be necessary. You will basically devise your own connector. Please read this section and it should provide the info you need to accomplish it.
Oracle does this internally as well. There is a synchronization service that runs against a database-based "Profile" system that is used for Oracle Technology Network (OTN) accounts, and automatically provisions user accounts on my.oracle.com, using this Oracle Directory Integration Platform.
If you need specific help after reading up on the referenced information, you may want to post your questions to the OID forum.
Thanks

Bulk load of user security details

Hi,
Any tips on how to go for a bulk load of user details in BPC, we have a list of users and their required authorisations.May be using scripts or some thing else. I know using DTS is one way, but trying to find if any workaround is there.?

My advice to customers and partners is to always build a security matrix in excel to determine all the assignments. The matrix helps to determine if you have captured all the correct teams, tasks assignments, and access. Try to ONLY setup users without any access 1st, then setup Memebraccess profiles and task profiles. Bring this all together via the TEAM assignment, since a team may have only 1 TASK profile, but multiple Member access profiles. While the building of security may take time, there are methods to minimize the current and future maintenance after the initial setup. Plus, once you set-up the process via the admin console, you then may see in the table structures just how complex the assignments are for each of the components. Once the tables are set, I still believe and I may be wrong, that an admin needs to process at a minimum the TEAMS from the admin console, to establish the connections required for by users for access.
Hope this helps.

OIM Bulk Load always asking for OIM database user

Hi,
While launching OIM Bulk load utility, all steps are correctly executed but when java driver is called, I always got the same message:
Enter password for OIM database user again :
And I never got menu #2.
Thank you for your help.
Is there any way to set it as parameter to the java program?

Basically twice you have to provide the correct DB password. are you using ojdbc5.jar in the lib folder?
you can set the password in oim_blkld_db_input.sh/bat script (just update oimpwd=<Actual password> and remove other lines under getDbPswd() method)

ABAP user for portal

Dear Experts,
We have a BI 7.0 EH1 installation on a single server with 2 separate instances for ABAP and JAVA currently. All configurations are currently okay and we are able to deploy infoproviders, load data and view them on Bex.
Currently, we are unable to utilize ABAP users for any activity on the portal, be it administration or execution of Bex for queries. We are also unable to see the ABAP system in Java currently in the configuration settings. I would like to use the ABAP user for execution of queries. SSO is configured and we do not have any errors while executing the support desk tool.
Kindly provide any solutions pertaining to this issue.
Thanks & Regards
Suneeth

Hi Surya ,
When you install portal or any NW component with ABAP stack , ABAP stack hold precidence over the JAVA Stack , refer to this link to have more idea on this .

Minimum seeded database users for portal

We would like to obtain the usernames of the minimum number of database
users that can be used for the portal to function.
In addition to the portal schema, we will be having a custom
schema in our database. So we would like to determine what
is the minimum number of database users that are needed for the system.
These would be:
1. Seeded users that come with the portal database
(Is there a list of minimum database users that we can obtain from some
documentation that are needed - are all the seeded users absolutely required,
or can some of them be deleted? )
2. The user for the custom schema. (this would be the only additional
user to the seeded users provided).
Thanks,
Suzanne

Suzanne,
Please refer to the Portal Configuration Guide.

3. assign them to groups
4. assign a default groups to users

Issue with Bulk Load Post Process

Hi,
I ran bulk load command line utility to create users in OIM. I had 5 records in my csv file. Out of which 2 users were successfully created in OIM and for rest i got exception because users already existed. After that if i run bulk load post process for LDAP sync and generate the password and send notification. It is not working even for successfully created users. Ideally it should sync successfully created users. However if there is no exception i during bulk load command line utility then LDAP sync work fine through bulk load post process.Any idea how to resolve this issue and sync the user in OID which were successfully created. Urgent help would be appreciated.

The scheduled task carries out post-processing activities on the users imported through the bulk load utility.

Notifications are not being sent when Bulk Load is done

Hi All,
I have OIM 11g setup on my machine. I use the bulk load utility for loading the user data. Now in my OIM setup, the notifications are being sent for all stuff like Reset Password. New account creation and other. However when I bulk load the users, notifications are not sent to their mail ids. I am running the scheduled job "Bulk load Post Process" which is necessary so that the users are synced to the LDAP repository. I have the LDAP Sync option checked and also the Notifications option set to yes in this scheduled job. Though the users are loaded successfully and are synced properly, the notifications are not sent. Can some one please guide me as to what could be the problem here?
Thanks,
$id

The code is probably only called in the Event method of the event handler that sends the notification. You can check the mds files and find the notification you are looking for and then use a code decompiler to find the class that is called. You can then use this code as a sample, or write your own notification code and create an event handler that runs in the BulkEvent.
And on another note there is also this System Configuration Variable: Recon.SEND_NOTIFICATION which is set to FALSE by default.

Facing issue in Bulk Load Post Process in case of blank fields in csv file

Hi,
I ran command line bulk utility to create users in OIM through CSV file. I left few columns as blank which were not mandatory. After executing the bulk utility, user got successfully created in OIM but after that when i ran "Bulk Load Post Process" for LDAP sync then it changed the user's organisation to default organisation "Xellerate User" which is a major issue. It is happening only when i am leaving some column blank. Any idea why it is happening and how to resolve this problem? Need some urgent help!!

Hi ,
Thanks for your reply, the issue was we can not use DOD=Y due to the dependency of the Standard Version where other program fetches data from the same XML structure,
Any way we resolved this issue by re doing below post installation steps. And used a new schema with updated DTD and point that with the same logical schema.
1) Created a new schema for XML external database
2) Change the DTD file, keep it in the same location
3) Change properties file with new schema name
4) Test with the new schema for XML connection
5) Reverse engineer the BaseModel ITEMBRANCH only (Where we added additional XML Tags)
6) Bounce back ODI agent and Client
Thanks,

How to prevent Evaluate User Policies to run for Bulk loaded users?

Hi,
I have an OIM 11G R2 environment, where i did a bulk load of abount 200,000+ users, and all the users' accounts were created using target recon.
How do I prevent the evaluate user policies scheduler from running for these users?
Any ideas are welcome.
Thanks,
Aravind Suresh

Hi,
I do have roles and access policies.
But i do not want them to applied to them at this stage as they already got everything through target recon.
Only for new users or these users on update i want the evaluate user policies to run.
Otherwise running evaluate user policies for these many users could be a very time and resource consuming task.
Thanks,
Aravind Suresh

User Interface for bulk loading images using interMedia

I would like to create an interface where users could bulk load images to a database. Has anyone created a web (or other) interface that would perhaps call a PL/SQL procedure or SQLloader?
Is there a way for users to upload images from there own computers in bulk? Would they need to utilize SQLPLUS?
While I have seen the examples and plan to create a web interface for uploading images one at a time, I have been requested to find a way for the users to upload images in bulk themselves (instead of them requesting us technical people to do it).
Thanks for any suggestions.
Judy

<BLOCKQUOTE><font size="1" face="Verdana, Arial, Helvetica">quote:</font><HR>Originally posted by Simon Oxbury:
Hi,
There's a sample on OTN that discusses loading multimedia data in bulk into the interMedia types using both SQL*Plus (with PL/SQL) and SQL*Loader. Check out the following URL: http://otn.oracle.com/sample_code/products/intermedia/htdocs/avi_bulk_loading.html
One major difference to consider between SQL*Loader and SQL*Plus (with PL/SQL) is that SQL*Loader can load data from files on the machine running SQL*Loader, which may be a different machine than the database, although it still needs an Oracle installation. Whereas SQL*Plus with PL/SQL can load data only from directories that are accessible to the database server and that have been defined in the server using the CREATE DIRECTORY command, which requires privs. Also note there are restrictions and issues specific to both NT and Unix when it comes to access network directories from the server.
If SQL*Loader looks like a possibility, you might want to think about a simple Java program, Perl script, or some such, to create the SQL*Loader scripts. On the other hand, if you get into Java, then you could use Java to do the upload and, at the same time, provide some level of application-specific user interaction and/or error reporting, etc. Its easy to get a list of file names in a directory using the File.list or File.listFiles methods in Java. On the other hand, if we talking LOTs of files, then SQL*Loader may turn out to be more efficient.
In order to better understand the variety of ways in which our customers are using interMedia, we'd be very interested in knowing a little more about your application, the interMedia functionality that you are using, and how you are developing and deploying your application. If you are able to help us, please send a short email message with some information about your application, together with any comments you may have, to the Oracle interMedia Product Manager, Joe Mauro, at [email protected]. Thank you!

OIM 11g - Issue with Bulk Load Utility for Account Data

Hi,
We are trying to load the account data for users in OIM 11g using bulk load utility.
We are trying to load the account data for resource "iPlanet". For testing purpose, we made one account entry in csv file and run the bulk load utility. After the bulk load process completes, we have noticed that resource is provisioned to the user multiple times and multiple entries have been created in process form table.
We have tried to run the utility multiple times with a different user record each time.
The out put of the below sql query:
SELECT MSG FROM OIM_BLKLD_LOG
WHERE MODULE = 'ACCOUNT' AND LOG_LEVEL = 'PROGRESS_MSG'
ORDER BY MSG_SEQ_NO;
is coming as follows:
MSG
Number of Records Loaded: 126
Number of Records Loaded: 252
Number of Records Loaded: 504
Number of Records Loaded: 1008
Number of Records Loaded: 2016
Number of Records Loaded: 4032
We have noticed that each time the number of records loaded is increased to double from the records loaded in last run even when the csv file contains only one record.
Provided below are the parent and child csv file entries.
Parent file:
UD_IPNT_USR_USERID,UD_IPNT_USR_FIRST_NAME,UD_IPNT_USR_LAST_NAME,UD_IPNT_USR_COMMON_NAME,UD_IPNT_USR_NSUNIQUEID
KPETER,Peter,Kevin,Peter Kevin,
Child file 1:
UD_IPNT_USR_USERID,UD_IPNT_GRP_GROUP_NAME
KPETER,group1
Child file 2:
UD_IPNT_USR_USERID,UD_IPNT_ROL_ROLE_NAME
KPETER,role1
Can you please throw some insight on what could be the potential cause for this issue and how it could be resolved?
Thanks
Deepa

Hi Deepa,
I know from 'User load' perspective that is required to restart Oracle Identity Manager when we need to reload data that was not loaded during the first run.
So, my suggestion is restart it before reload.
Reference: http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E21764_01/doc.1111/e14309/bulkload.htm#CHDEICEH
I hope this helps,
