UCM & URM Integration

Question

Dear All
I'm setting up an integration between UCM & URM through UCM Adapter, I went through all the steps from defining an outgoing provider, to mapping and synchronization of content and metadata, and all was done successfully.
However, I'm still unable to search for documents that are stored in URM from UCM screen, and vice-verse.
My question is, is this the normal behavior? Is there a way to have the content stored in URM available to users from UCM screen (that is having a unified repository and interface for all documents stored in WebCenter Content)?
Please advise
Thanks and Best Regards

The Content Server enterprise search as described requires a master-proxy relationship that is not supported in 11g.

Proxy Servers and Master Servers: Oracle UCM does not support proxy Oracle Content Server instances. Only one Oracle Content Server can be deployed on each Oracle WebLogic Server domain. A single Oracle WebLogic Server domain can run one Oracle Content Server instance, one Inbound Refinery instance, and one Universal Records Management instance, and other Fusion Middleware applications. If you want to run more Oracle Content Server instances, a separate Oracle WebLogic Server domain is required for each Content Server instance (plus an Inbound Refinery instance and Universal Records Management instance).

Experience has shown that the adapter provider connection should just be dedicated to that specific function. The adapter provider, once the adapter is enabled, is basically non-editable. You wouldn't be able to make the necessary changes to the provider to enable the search functionality without disabling the adapter, which may be more painful than just creating the new provider.
