Deploying Sun IDM 8.1 on Weblogic

Here are few quick steps to deploy Sun IDM (now called Oracle_Waveset) on Weblogic app server on a Window box. Note that Sun IDM is a web application which requires any standard application server and a db repository. The installable is just a war file.

A. ENVIRONMENT PREPARATION
(1) download IDM 8.1 from here. Extract the downloaded file IDM_8_1_0_0.zip to a temporary directory say C:\Sun\idm_setup .

(2) Create database, say 'waveset' of any of the supported RDMS like MySql, Oracle, MS SQLServer. Create the IDM related tables in this database using your db specific sql script available in C:\Sun\idm_setup\db_scripts directory. For example, run data file ..\db_scripts\create_waveset_tables.sqlserver if your db is MS SQL server.

(3) Create an Weblogic instance meant for running the IDM application later.


B. IDM INSTALLATION
(1) From command prompt :-
-> cd C:\Sun\idm_setup (This is where you extracted the IDM installables)
-> set WSHOME=C:\Sun\idm (Assuming this is your installation directory)
-> set JAVA_Home=C:\bea\jdk150_04 (You can choose your jdk )
-> run install.bat
select the component installation directory as 'C:\Sun\idm'
This will create the application (exploded IDM war file) at 'C:\Sun\idm'

(2) Next step is to set up the jdbc driver. IDM application will use this to connect to its repository. Here is a example of jdbc setup for MS SQL Server db repository.
-> copy sqljdbc.jar file to C:\Sun\idm\WEB-INF\lib\sqljdbc.jar
-> click 'next'
on "launch setup" screen and enter the followings
URL : jdbc:sqlserver://YourSQLServer:1433;DatabaseName=waveset
JDBC Driver : com.microsoft.sqlserver.jdbc.SQLServerDriver
connectAsUSer : waveset-db-userid
connect password: password
-> click next :- (if error shows up here then exit from setup and do c:\sun\idm\bin\lh setup )

(3) Next initialize Identity Manager with default init.xml
-> Continue Demo setup : No
-> import init.xml identity Manager Configuration. Click 'Execute' .

(4) Finally deploy the application from weblogic console.
-> run weblogic server that is created for IDM purpose
-> go to http://weblogicMachineName:7001/console/
-> After authentication, select deployment and pick the application location as 'C:\Sun\idm'.
-> Make sure the deployment status of IDM is "active". Now go to http://
weblogicMachineName:7001/idm
UserId / password : configurator/configurator
OR
UserId / password : administrator/administrator

You will see the IDM administration related screens.

Happy Learning..
