Oracle Internet Directory (OID) 11g Installation

Posted by Unknown on Thursday, January 20, 2011

OID is going to used as the default naming service for a number of databases and the procedure below describes the steps used to make this achievable. For obvious reasons, I’ll have to mask some of the details.
Please note, as per the documentation configuration should be done right at the end after installing the IDM patchset, but we ran into an issue while running config.sh using that procedure, ultimately Oracle asked us to run the config.sh before installing the patchset. So you configure using 11.1.1.2 & then install the 11.1.1.3 patchset

Ensure Certification & Prerequisites

Ensure nodemanager process is killed and ListenPort=7403 is present in file /app/oracle/Middleware/wlserver_10.3/common/emnodemanager/nodemanager.properties
The database which OID will use as a repository will need to have the following parameters set.
Set aq_tm_processes initialization process on the database to be more than 1.
SQL> alter system set aq_tm_processes=2 scope=both;
System altered.
SQL>
SQL> alter system set open_cursors=500 scope=both;
System altered.
SQL> grant execute on DBMS_LOCK to PUBLIC;
Grant succeeded.
SQL> grant execute on DBMS_JOB to PUBLIC;
Grant succeeded.
SQL>
The above two grant statements were added, because of an issue we will face without them, when we try to configure OID at the end of install.

Create the database schema for OID using RCU

Install 64-bit JDK for Linux

64-bit Weblogic Server does not come with its own JDK, we would have to install it separately.
Note id used ( ID 1063587.1)
[oracle@pxxxxxx001 oracle]$ mkdir -p /app/oracle/jdk16
[oracle@pxxxxxx001 oracle]$
Place the downloaded file (jdk-6u18-linux-x64.bin) in the folder created above.
[oracle@pxxxxxx001 jdk16]$ pwd
/app/oracle/jdk16
[oracle@pxxxxxx001 jdk16]$ ls -l

Change permissions on the file
chmod 770 jdk-6u18-linux-x64.bin
Run the install file as oracle user
./jdk-6u18-linux-x64.bin
Accept the licence agreement and enter yes when prompted.
JDK is now installed under /app/oracle/jdk16/jdk1.6.0_18.
Please note that this JDK will be used by weblogic server and should never be updated/upgraded, unless requested by Oracle.

Add the JAVA_HOME environment variable to .bash_profile for oracle user
JAVA_HOME=/app/oracle/jdk16/jdk1.6.0_18
export JAVA_HOME

Connect to ODSM to ensure successful OID installation

As this is the first time, we will have to create a connection to OID.
Now that it is confirmed we can see our Domain in ODSM, close it and proceed further.

Stop OID & Fusion Middleware

We need to stop the processes and apply patchesets to upgrade Weblogic Server & IDM Suite.

Net Services Configuration in OID 11g

[oracle@pxxxxxx001 bin]$ pwd
/app/oracle/Middleware/Oracle_IDM1/bin
[oracle@pxxxxxx001 bin]$ ls net*
netca netca_deinst.sh netmgr
[oracle@pxxxxxx001 bin]$ ./netca &
This error is because OID 11g by default does not allow automatic binding
To fix, do the following:

Enable Anonymous Binding

Login to the Fusion Middleware Control at http://pdc2oid001.onelondon.tfl.local:7001/em
Click on the Topology button above, this should open a new window as below
Right click on the oid1 and select Administration->Server Properties
Your old window should now change to the following
Click on ‘Anonymous Bind’ drop down and change it ‘Allows’, then click Apply.
You have successfully changed the setting.
Now, continue with Net Services Configuration.

Enable Directory Usage

Click Finish

Import an existing tnsnames.ora file into the directory

The tnsnames.ora file on the OID server in location /app/oracle/Middleware/Oracle_IDM1/network/admin had the following entries
DBARPR1.osgrid.onelondon.tfl.local =
(DESCRIPTION =
(ADDRESS_LIST =
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = scan.osgrid.onelondon.tfl.local)(PORT = 1521))
)

Start Oracle Net Manager

[oracle@pxxxxxx001 bin]$ export DISPLAY=10.xxx.116.xx:0.0
[oracle@pxxxxxx001 bin]$ which netmgr
/app/oracle/Middleware/Oracle_IDM1/bin/netmgr
[oracle@pxxxxxx001 bin]$ netmgr
Note: If the tnsnames.ora file were are trying to import is in a different location to the default /app/oracle/Middleware/Oracle_IDM1/network/admin, then we can actually select the location of the file by clicking on File -> Open Network Configuration…
Now click on Command->Directory->’Export Net Service Names…’
Enter authentication details in the resulting box
A wizard should popup
Because we have databases belonging to both OSGRID & TDGRID, two different clusters, we will be given an option to choose which one we want to import, we will have to do it one by one.
Now that one of the cluster is completed, lets export the other cluster databases.

Confirm Imported Names Services

Click on Directory->Service Naming and you should see the databases just imported.
Complete. The Oracle Net Manager can be closed now.

Creating Net Services Aliases

From Documentation:
There are two main uses of net service aliases:
  • Use a net service alias as a way for clients to refer to a database service or net service name by another name.
  • Use a net service alias in one Oracle Context for a database service or net service name in a different Oracle Context. This enables a database service or net service name to be defined once in the directory server, and referred to by clients that use other Oracle Contexts.

Start the Oracle Net Manager

[oracle@pxxxxxx001 ~]$ export DISPLAY=10.xxx.116.xx:0.0
[oracle@pxxxxxx001 ~]$ /app/oracle/Middleware/Oracle_IDM1/bin/netmgr &
[1] 23514
[oracle@pxxxxxx001 ~]$
Click on Aliases and then choose Edit->Create from the menu on top.
Enter the alias & select the database for which the alias is from the drop-down below. Click Create.
Go to any client machine (configured to access OID net services) and check the new alias is working.

OID Client side Configuration

To ensure that the clients resolve Oracle Net Services Names using OID, the following two files have to be modified.
The files ldap.ora & sqlnet.ora should be located in the $TNS_ADMIN folder of the client machine and should have the following contents in them.
#ldap.ora
DIRECTORY_SERVERS= (pxxxxxx001.onelondon.tfl.local:3060:3131)
DEFAULT_ADMIN_CONTEXT = “dc=onelondon,dc=tfl,dc=local”
DIRECTORY_SERVER_TYPE = OID
#sqlnet.ora
SQLNET.AUTHENTICATION_SERVICES= (NTS)
NAMES.DIRECTORY_PATH= (LDAP, EZCONNECT, TNSNAMES)
NAMES.DEFAULT_DOMAIN = onelondon.tfl.local

The above files are automatically generated by Oracle Net Manager.

Deploy Agent to the OID Server

Log into Grid Control 11g & go to Deployments page
Click on Install Agent
Click on Fresh Install
Click Continue at the bottom of the page

Run root.sh

Now, run the root.sh script (/app/oracle/agent11g/root.sh) to complete the deployment.

Add AGENT_HOME variable

Add the following to .bash_profile file of the oracle user
AGENT_HOME=/app/oracle/agent11g
export AGENT_HOME
Login back into a new session connecting to oracle user on the OID server and run the following command:
