Upgrading sun identity manager 7.1.1 to 8.1

hi all,
I am Upgrading sun identity manager 7.1.1 to 8.1 and ran the DB script upgradeto81from71.oracle. It takes a long time and eventually hangs on this statement:
CREATE INDEX repo1.userobj_repomod ON repo1.userobj(repomod);
We have large number of users around 30,000 but it should still not hang....
Any thoughts?
I am using Oracle 10g client and database is Oracle 11.2.0.2.0
thanks a lot!
vik

Hi,
I did not have any issues when I did the upgrade but we also did not change the script from waveset to repo1.
In changing the script did you miss any of changes from waveset to repo1
By the way we have about 90,000 users so I do not think the number of users is the issue. The database version we use is 10g

Trial version of the "Sun Identity Manager " available?

Hello,
is there a trial version of the "Sun Identity Manager " available? (e.g. 90 days test licence, or something similar)
I'am a consultant for metadirectory products and want to setup a test-environment to discover the benefits of your product.
Best regards,
Markus Svec

Hi Mark,
thank you for your answer.
Is there documentation (e.g. administration guide) available?
I searched at docs.sum.com but I only found documentation about "Java System Identity Server", which is a different product as I understand the "confusing" product naming.
Best regards

How to view the MissingFields Form in Sun Identity Manager

Hi All,
In the Tabbed User Form [in the Sun Identity Manager's administrative interface], there's this tab called Attributes. This is referring to a form called MissingFields. I want to read this form and understand it's working logic. But I am not able to find out as to where's it stored.
Help me.
Thanks,
Shriram Ravikumar.

I believe this is not a real form but a special built-in form or something.
Because when I open the Tabbed User Form in BPE and try to open the reference to MissingFields I get an error.

Migration from SIM(Sun Identity Manager) to Oracle IDM

hi
Anyone having any knowledge on Migration from SIM(Sun Identity Manager) to Oracle IDM. Please share the knowledge/doc/links. Would helps me lot.
Thanks
.\idm

Hi,
Basic migration information can be found here. http://www.oracle.com/us/products/middleware/identity-management/upgrade/index.html
I believe more detailed information will be available soon.

Sun Identity Manager (IDM)

Any one any docs on SUN Identity Manager ? i have some doubts

I have a feeling that it will be a never ending question as to the migration steps. For the time being, if you must "migrate", i would suggest re-evaluating what is being done in the Sun IDM system and develop a project plan to implement the same connectors, recon the data from Sun IDM or target, and then use OIM.

Sun identity manager - java.lang.OutOfMemory

Hi, I have one very interesting issue regarding JVM memory. I have one sun idm (version 7) application deployed in sun java web application server. I am facing JVM error - java.lang.OutOfMemory very frequently now days in production server. I am sharing you the details regarding configuration :
Their are 4 app servers - IDMAPP01 IDMAPP02 IDMAPP03 IDMAPP04
current total memory on each of the 4 app server 8 GB
memory allocated to JVM on each server 5 GB
os - solaris
admin task recon are performed only on instance - IDMAPP04
JVM setting is - -Xmx5g -Xms5g -Xmn1500m -XX:MaxPermSize=512m
Log file locations:
/var/opt/SUNWappserver/domain1/logs/vm.log
/var/opt/SUNWappserver/domain1/logs/gc.log
/opt/SUNWappserver/appserver/config/asadminenv.conf
/opt/SUNWappserver/appserver/config/asenv.conf
idm app deployment path:
/var/opt/SUNWappserver/domain1/applications/j2ee-modules/idm
logpath
/var/opt/SUNWappserver/domain1/logs/
Whenever I am getting this issue, we are restarting all the 4 server instances which is impacting business as this is prod server.
Can anyone suggest how can I solve this issue. (please suggest good performance tuning tips without increasing physical memory).
Regards,
Jimmy

what else is running on those servers and how much memory are those applications consuming?

JVM setting is - -Xmx5g -Xms5g -Xmn1500m -XX:MaxPermSize=512mIf IDMAPP04 is doing different things from the other servers, then they should be configured differently. What garbage collector are you using?

Can anyone suggest how can I solve this issue. (please suggest good performance tuning tips without increasing physical memory).
Enable gc logging and use a profiler to capture the behaviour of the jvm. You need to understand what it is doing and find where the problem area is before you can recommend what to tune.

Sun Identity Compliance Manager Questions

Hi Everyone,
We are looking for a complete list of supported managed resources for the Sun Identity Compliance Manager (SICM) tool.
Also we have the following specific questions:
1.     Does SICM have connectors/adapters to Solaris 8/9/10 and Oracle EBS (as managed resources) to perform access certification of user accounts and associated entitlements/privileges/roles.
For example: Can SICM be used to analyze/report on the status of current and newly provisioned Solaris unix-level accounts and associated RBAC roles (say) -or- Oracle EBS accounts and associated roles /responsibilities to identify if they have been certified or have any SOD conflicts?
2.     Can SICM be implemented as a fully functional stand-alone product as opposed to it being integrated with Sun Identity Manager (SIM) ?
3.     In a scenario where SIM and SICM are integrated, can SIM do a hand-off to SICM for SOD analysis and checking as part of it account provisioning workflows?
Any insight and/or pointers will be greatly appreciated!
Thanks in advance and please let me know if there is a more relevant forum to post this question.
-TS

I have resolved the problem, the problem is because of the idmmanager attribute. In onsite they are using some other idm 6.0 with some patch, so they are getting the idm manager attribute but in offshore we dont have any patch installed for getting the idm manager attribute. Do you have any idea about how to get the idm manager attribute in the idm 6.0 with some patch? Thanks for your help ya.

Integrate IdM roles with Sun Access Manager roles

Hi all,
I am currently working on a solution involving Sun Identity Manager 7.1 and Sun Access Manager 7.1 as well. We use AM for overall authentication and SSO across the application, and IdM for user provisioning.
I need to create roles in Identity Manager, and I would like that when I assign a role to a user in Identity Manager, he gets the same role in my Access Manager repository (Sun LDAP). Identity Manager does provide a way to set attribute values in resources when a role is set. Access Manager on the other hand has both dynamic roles, based on an LDAP search, and static roles.
What are the important differences between static and dynamic roles in AM?
Does anybody know a good way to propagate roles from Identity Manager to Access Manager?
Thanks.

I found answers to my question. I succeeded in setting the Access Manager role from Identity Manager using the nsRoleDN attribute. Here are some references to begin with:
About directory server roles:
http://docs.sun.com/app/docs/doc/820-2493/fvbrn?a=view
Forum thread reference:
http://forums.sun.com/thread.jspa?threadID=5208694
Here are roughly the steps I followed to get this working.
Access Manager roles setup:
1. In Access Manager, create a new static role named test_role under the identities realm (in Subjects > Role).
Identity Manager roles setup:
1. Create a new role in Identity Manager: tab Roles, click New....
2. Assign the LDAP resource to synchronize the role with.
3. On the Assigned Resources line, click the Set Attributes Values button. This shows up the attributes listing allowing you to bind your IdM role to your LDAP repository.
4. Set the attribute nsRoleDN to the LDAP DN of the role that was created in AM (nsRoleDN must be added in the resource attributes mapping before).
* In the column Value override, select Text.
* In the column How to set, select Authoritative merge with value, clear existing. (* See IDM Admin guide about this setting, I am still not sure how it reacts with multi-value attributes)
* In the text box, enter the role DN text (ex: cn=test_role,dc=com).
5. Save the role. You can now add the role to a user.

How to programmatically catch the activeSync errors in identity manager 8.1

Sun Identity Manager 8.1
May I know how can I catch the errors thrown by activeSync during create/update/delete process and even errors before the activeSync process reaches to create/update/delete workflows (like errors when the user account is locked, it does not reach the update workflow) pro-grammatically and throw to notification process such as email.
Your response will be highly appreciated.
Regards

I do this in 7.1 by using a workflow for my active sync processes. I'm sure it will be similar in 8.1. If you use a workflow rather than an input form you can set up a transition at top level of the workflow. This transition is used as an error checker which can move the workflow to an error handler section. The error handler can then do stuff like send out notices etc.
Something like this pseudo code:
<TaskDefintion...>
<Extension...>
<WFProcess...>
<Variable .../>
<Variable .../>
<Transition to="Error Handler">
    
</Transition>
<Activity ...>
    
    <Transition to="next"/>
</Activity>
<Activity name="Error Handler">
    
    <Transition to="end"/>
</Activity>
</TaskDefinition>The top level transition (which checks for the error) is called between each activity so it's perfect as an error checker.

Comparision of various Identity Manager solutions

I am doing a comparative study of all the Idantity Manager solutions available in market.
Could someone please post the advantages and disadvantages of Sun Identity Manager in comparision to other Identity Manager solutions like Novell,Tivoli,Oracle Identity Manager.
Thanks,
pdeep

There's the Gartner report you should see. At one time, Sun and Novell kept copies on their site
found it... Get it before it disappears !

Sun Identity Manger 8.0 and fail over..

We are setting up a fail/recovery site for our Sun Identity Manager solution, I had pictured a seem less fail over, but that looks near impossible to do with oracle database. I had pictured load balanced Appserver, with load balanced data bases, sort of a multi-master like LDAP allows..
Curious what others are using for a fail over site / setup.
Thanks

We're using 7.0. For us failover is basically mulitple servers all using the same DB repository, with a "smart" loadbalancer in front of them (smart meaning, able to detect which back end servers are responsive).
IdM doesn't use any inter-server temp-data synchronization, all the servers running off the same repository communicate by committing changes to the database.
So if a specific IdM instance dies, on the next page load the user will be redirected to a new server. That server will redirect to the login page and ask the user to re-auth, with the desired page placed after login.jsp as a "nextPage" argument. After (re-)logging in, the user's returned to the page they were trying to get to. However, in-progress edits that had not been committed back to the database will be lost.
We looked at high availability arrangements where valid sessions are shared across a new server, but fundamentally the limitation is that the app servers still don't sync in-progress edits, so the only difference between an HA environment and a more passive fail-over environment (like ours) is that in an HA environment the user doesn't have to re-login on a server failure; they still lose in-progress edits. So HA didn't seem like it added value to us.
If you are literally talking about an off-site, completely standby, seamless failover site, I agree I don't see how you would do that. I'd expect that you'd need the offsite setup to be a cold-standby site; configured to use the replicated database, but with the apps powered down until you actually need them. Otherwise, I think you'd have problems with the standby site servers not wanting to "standby". You could ensure no users end up on the standby servers, but background processes are likely to be run across both the primary and the standby services; I don't think you can enforce an "idle but running" status for the standby servers.
