OIM 11.1.1.5.0 - Remote Manager not working

Question

Hi everyone,
I am working with an AD which I installed on a different machine than my OIM and I would like to install Remote Manager with my AD. I followed all the steps which are described in the documentation but when I launch RemoteManager.bat, I have the following in the console :
D:\Oracle\Middleware\Oracle_IDM1\remote_manager>"D:\Oracle\Middleware\jdk160_24\jre/bin/java" -cp .;.\lib\xlAPI.jar;.\lib\xlVO.jar;.\lib\xlScheduler.jar;.\lib\xlRemoteManager.jar;.\lib\xerces.jar;.\lib\xlDataObjects.jar;.\lib\log4j-1.2.8.jar;.\lib\xlUtils.jar;.\lib\xlLogger.jar;.\lib\xlCrypto.jar;.\lib\iam-platform-utils.jar;.lib\oimclient.jar;.\ext\spring.jar -Dlog4j.configuration=config\log.properties -DXL.HomeDir=D:/Oracle/Middleware/Oracle_IDM1/remote_manager com.thortech.xl.remotemanager.RemoteManager

I'm not sure this means Remote Manager is working cause I have a problem when I am creating the IT Ressource on OIM : connection refused to host : (+my ip address+). And when I use nmap, I can notice that port 12346 is not open.
Thanks for your help !

Hi Thibault,
Your problem looks like a firewall problem between these servers, because you should be able to do telnet once it is up into both(SSL and NONSSL) ports, default 12346 and 12345.
What I normally do is:

I write into Telnet command and into telnet connection I write one command called +'EHLO something'+ to write and check a message from OIM-Server to RM-Server using SSL_port
-->telnet THIAGO_REMOTEMANAGER_IP 12345
[oracle@xxxxx~]$ telnet THIAGO_REMOTEMANAGER_IP 12345
Trying THIAGO_REMOTEMANAGER_IP...
Connected to THIAGO_REMOTEMANAGER_IP (192.xxx.xxx.xxx).
Escape character is '^]'.
EHLO THIAGO
then you will see something like this:
[Raw read]: length = 5
0000: 45 48 4C 4F 20 EHLO ****

RMI TCP Connection(3)-OIM-IP, WRITE: TLSv1 true, length = 2

RMI TCP Connection(3)-OIM-IP, called closeSocket()
RMI TCP Connection(3)-OIM-IP, called close()
RMI TCP Connection(3)-OIM-IP, called closeInternal(true)
but as I said, first the telnet should be ok. If not, take a look into your firewall rules and let us know.
I hope this helps,
