Oracle Wallet Manager is a tool to manage internet certificates for clients and servers (databases can have certificates) issued by Certificate Authorities (e.g. Verisign). It can be used in conjunction with Oracle Net/SSL.
Details on it can be found at the following link:

What is the use of "oracle.jbo.client.svc.ADFApplicationLifecycleListener"

Hi All,
We are currently developing some data services using ADF-BC, can someone tell me what is the use of "oracle.jbo.client.svc.ADFApplicationLifecycleListener" listener? We are using this listener in weblogic applicaion xml but no idea why its used.
Also, what is the difference between
"oracle.adf.share.weblogic.listeners.ADFApplicationLifecycleListener" and "oracle.jbo.client.svc.ADFApplicationLifecycleListener"
I tried searching a lot of documentation but none of them seem have this information.
Thanks

Repeated start/stop or redeploy causes memory leak (7393267)
Repeated start/stop or redeploy of an application causes memory to leak and the server has to be restarted to clean up the memory. New applications created in JDeveloper 11.1.1.0.1 will be configured with a Weblogic Application Lifecycle Listener to handle this scenario. For older applications migrated to 11.1.1.0.1, the listener will need to be manually added to the weblogic-application.xml of the application to solve this issue.

What is the use of Oracle BI Server DSN?

Hi,
I have the Admin Tool for OBIEE 11g installed as standalone installer.
While creating a new repository,I import the metadata by using ODBC DSN connection.I create a system DSN with the driver being 'Oracle in OraClient10g_home n'
I am not able to understand as to in what circumstances the ODBC DSN connection is created with the driver being 'Oracle BI Server n'.
Someone kindly let me know the use of creating a connection with the DSN 'Oracle BI Server n'.
Also once I deploy an RPD on to my BI Server,if suppose the IP Address of the data source gets changed,then how can this be accomodated.
Thanks in Advance.
Regards,
Akshatha

Hi,
It is used to connect to a repository through the Oracle BI Server
i.e
OBI Server can handle multiple repository but you can connect to only one at the same time by DSN Odbc Connection. Therefore, you must set up an ODBC connection for each repository.

Separate License for Oracle Wallet Manager

Hi,
From our application we have been making webservice calls using utl_http. In the past this has been via http but we now have a requirement to make a webservice call using https. This requires the use of Oracle Wallet Manager. Is a separate License required to be purchased to use the Oracle Wallet, or is it part of the Oracle database license? We have an internal check going on now with various people, but I just thought I'd ask the question here as well.
Database version: Oracle Database 10g Enterprise Edition Release 10.2.0.4.0 - 64bi

Oracle Wallets can be deployed on clients, middle tiers, and database servers FREE of charge. However, the following features that use an Oracle Wallet in turn require licensing of the Oracle Advanced Security Option:
- PKI credentials
- Transparent Data Encryption.
Please check following MOS for more details.
Is There Any Additional License Required For Wallet Manager? (Doc ID 1068223.1)

Oracle Wallet Manager will not start with GLIBC_2.0 error

I have cloned my 11.5.10.2 system from RHEL4 to the new RHEL5 server.

I also have an iAS 10g server on the same machine and OWM starts fine when I am that user (it was installed new not cloned)
I assume I am missing a link somewhere but I can't seem to figure out where, anyone have any thoughts? Thanks!

Hi,
Does rapidclone now execute the scripts identified in MOS Doc 356878.1 automatically ? It did not used to perform an automatic relink.Rapid Clone always relink the database executable files automatically.

Upgrading Oracle Wallet Manager

I am currently running Oracle Application Server 10.1.2.3 on a Windows Server 2203 R2 box. We are being forced to migrate our SHA1 SSL certificates to SHA256. However, when I attempt to import the certs into Oracle Wallet Manager 10.1.0.5, I get an error saying "Some trusted certificates could not be installed". I believe that Oracle Wallet Manager 11.2.0.1 supports SHA256 certs. Is there a way for me to upgrade JUST Oracle Wallet Manager without doing a full Application Server upgrade to Fusion Middleware 11g?

Dear sir,
I have the same problem with my Oracle Application Server 10.1.4.2.
Is there a solution?
Thank You

Using a SHA2 certificate with 12.1.1 (Oracle Wallet Manager 10.1.0.5)

Hi folks,
I'm trying to enable SSL on my 12.1.1 system, but I've got a bit of a problem.
I've already logged a SR on this, so I already know that you cannot use SHA2 SSL certificates with Oracle Wallet Manager 10.1.0.5, which is part of the 10.1.3 tech stack. I started the SR on the EBS side, but it was passed on to the security group, and closed there. My question is, is there something that I don't know? Is there an upgrade path in 12.1.x that would include an upgrade to the OWM, or is there some sort of workaround? I'll be opening another SR tomorrow, but wanted to see if I was missing something simple.
We have an internal certificate server (Microsoft AD), and the root certificate, which I need to import, is SHA2. I'm being told that they cannot generate a SHA1 root certificate, and would have to stand up another certificate authority. OWM 10.1.0.5 can't handle SHA2, so I'm stuck.
Anybody been there done that?
Thanks very much,
-Adam vonNieda

Is it posible to use openssl csr for oracle Wallet Manager?

Hi,
I have used openssl to create csr instead of using oracle Wallet Manager. I need to use certificate for OAS. I have sent csr to RapidSSL.com and they sent me the certificate with a fee.

My question are followings:
1-     Can I use csr that generated from openssl to owm?
2-     Can I import certificate that purchased from RapidSSL.com to owm?
3-     What are the steps I have to follow?
Thank you

What is the use of SYSAUX Tablespace in Oracle 10G

Dear Experts,
Please Tell me What is the use of SYSAUX Tablespace in Oracle 10G Because
during Web Load Testing It is going to increase countinuosly.Although i am not using this with any tables.
How Can I find out the what is gong on in this.
Can I Remove this tablesspace and other non using Schemas like FLOWS_020100,MDSYS,OUTLN,DIP and TSMSYS etc.

What is SYSAUX?
The SYSAUX tablespace provides storage of non-sys-related tables and indexes that traditionally were placed in the SYSTEM tablespace. For example, the tables and indexes that were previously owned by the system user can now be specified for a SYSAUX tablespace. Unfortunately, Oracle still places the SCOTT schema and the other demonstration schemas in the SYSTEM tablespace. Go figure.
The SYSAUX tablespace is specified with the CREATE DATABASE command. This is demonstrated in the example database creation script in Figure 1.1.
CREATE DATABASE test
MAXINSTANCES 1
MAXLOGHISTORY 1
MAXLOGFILES 5
MAXLOGMEMBERS 3
MAXDATAFILES 100
DATAFILE '/usr/oracle/OraHome1/oradata/aultdb1/test/system01.dbf' SIZE 300M REUSE AUTOEXTEND ON NEXT 10240K MAXSIZE UNLIMITED
EXTENT MANAGEMENT LOCAL
SYSAUX DATAFILE '/usr/oracle/OraHome1/oradata/aultdb1/test/sysaux01.dbf' SIZE 120M REUSE AUTOEXTEND ON NEXT 10240K MAXSIZE UNLIMITED
DEFAULT TEMPORARY TABLESPACE TEMP TEMPFILE '/usr/oracle/OraHome1/oradata/aultdb1/test/temp01.dbf' SIZE 20M REUSE AUTOEXTEND ON NEXT 640K MAXSIZE UNLIMITED EXTENT MANAGEMENT LOCAL
UNDO TABLESPACE "UNDOTBS1" DATAFILE '/usr/oracle/OraHome1/oradata/aultdb1/test/undotbs01.dbf' SIZE 200M REUSE AUTOEXTEND ON NEXT 5120K MAXSIZE UNLIMITED
CHARACTER SET WE8ISO8859P1
NATIONAL CHARACTER SET AL16UTF16
LOGFILE GROUP 1 ('/usr/oracle/OraHome1/oradata/aultdb1/test/redo01.log') SIZE 10240K,
GROUP 2 ('/usr/oracle/OraHome1/oradata/aultdb1/test/redo02.log') SIZE 10240K,
GROUP 3 ('/usr/oracle/OraHome1/oradata/aultdb1/test/redo03.log') SIZE 10240K
USER SYS IDENTIFIED BY "password" USER SYSTEM IDENTIFIED BY "password";
Oracle10g sysaux
With the new SYSAUX tablespace, Oracle comes closer to providing all the needed tablespaces for a truly OFA-compliant database right out of the box. With just one CREATE DATABASE command we can specify the SYSTEM tablespace, the TEMPORARY tablespace, the AUXSYS tablespace, the default UNDO tablespace, and the redo logs.
Of course, with the Oracle Managed Files option you can create an entire database with a single command, but the database created is not suitable for production use and is not OFA-compliant.
The SYSAUX tablespace is required in all new 10g databases. Only the SYSAUX tablespace datafile location is specified. Oracle specifies the remainder of the tablespace properties including:
online
permanent
read write
extent managment local
segment space management auto
If a datafile is specified for the SYSTEM tablespace, then one must be specified for the SYSAUX tablespace as well. If one is not specified, then the CREATE DATABASE command will fail. The only exception is for an Oracle Managed File system.
During any update of a database to Oracle Database 10g, a SYSAUX tablespace must be created or the upgrade will fail. The SYSAUX tablespace has the same security profile as the SYSTEM tablespace. However, loss of the SYSAUX tablespace will not result in a database crash, only the functional loss of the schemas it contains.
Can I drop SysAux?
DROP DATAFILE

What is the use of Node Manager?

OBIEE Oracle Business Intelligence 11.1.1.5
I have started up the WebLogic server which delivers the WL Server Admin Console as well as the Fusion Middleware Control.
I have ignored NodeManager. It hasnt been started.
What is the use of NodeManager?
Oracle tells us:
Note: In order to start the Managed Server using the WebLogic Server Administration Console, the Node Manager must be running.
http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E21043_01/bi.1111/e10541/components.htm
But my Manged Server is running ok - I can check http://<host>:7001/console and its ok.
So why do I need to bother with NodeManager?
I only have WLS and OHS installed - no BI instance.

Answers inline:
As I have installed weblogic server 10.3.5 on windows. while am starting it using cmd am getting two ips as
1**.*.... for weblogic server one is (channel default 4... .. and one is default 1) kindly explain.
- It doesn't generate any IP. If you have installed successfully, weblogic will run on your system and it's ip will remain same. You can access it using your systems'IP:portnumber
Also tell as I have to use cmd for starting servers how can i use unix commands for the same??
- You have installed on windows so unix command won't work for you. You can either start by going into services window in windows or start using command by going to path weblogichome\domains\domainname\bin. Execute startWebLogic.cmd
Also explain what is the use of node manager and weblogic scripting tool which are also installed in the system.
- Node manager is used for communication bentween two or more servers in a domain.
As am looking to install OIM 11g so kindly tell what are all the things I need to know about weblogic so that i can learn OIM easily.
- To install OIM, install weblogic, install oracle database. Use RCU utilities to create database and then install SOA, OIM and configure them. You can get all kinds of guides and steps for OIM 11g r2 here:

What is the use of "Organization" and "UserGroup" in Oracle Identity Mgr

Hi
I have created an user and provisioned it with an EBS instance.
Can anyone explain what is the use of "Organization" or "User Group" in Oracle Identity Manager?
What are the basic concepts of having them?
It seems that "Organization" is simply used for categorization of Users in OIM into various orgs and sub-orgs with the aim to create a logical hierarchy of users.
Anything more?
The use of "UserGroups" i find is only for the application of Access Policies and nothing else.
Please modify/add to the concepts.
Thanks
debashis

You can use Organizations to seperate groups of users and limit which resources are available to the users in that organization. You can also create administrative groups over those organizations.
Groups can contain membership rules to automatically place users into them based on attributes from their profile. You can also create access policies to apply to those groups to provision and restrict provisioning of resources. Groups can also be beneficial if you have department groups and such to be able to quickly view all the users who are part of it. Groups are also used during attestation and can be made process owners of the attestation tasks. And Groups can also be used for assignment of tasks such as approvals and provisioning tasks. Groups are also how permissions are assigned throughout OIM.
I'm sure there are many more uses, but this is a few of them.

Where can I find the Oracle Wallet Manager?

Hi,
I'm trying to configure an MQSeries Adapter for SSL however being fairly new the 'Wallet' concept as well as SSL configuration I'm having a hard time finding it. I don't see any option in my WinXP start menu. I ran a search for 'owm' in my local and found the 'owm-3_0.jar' file. When I try to run it via java -jar I get a main class not found.
Is there an alternative to run this manager? Can I download it somewhere? Is there a cmd-based tool I can use instead to add certificates to my wallet (cwallet.sso)?
Thanks,
MV

Hi,

If you upgraded to Snow Leopard, then it would seem that Suitcase 11 is not compatible with Snow Leopard and you'd need to buy Suitcase Fusion 3 for $99.95.
