2-22 Oracle Fusion Middleware Disaster Recovery Guide
Special Considerations The load balancer virtual hosts required for the Oracle Internet Directory should be
configured on both the production and standby sites.
Synchronization Recommendations The directory tier must be manually synchronized with the standby site after making
configuration changes and applying patches.
Oracle Data Guard should be configured for Oracle database metadata repositories. It is recommended that the standby database be synchronized when the application
tier synchronization is initiated on the storage. This synchronization occurs automatically because Oracle Data Guard is configured in Managed Recovery mode
the recommended configuration for the database. If the standby database is not in Managed Recovery mode, then you should manually synchronize the standby
database.
Recovery Recommendations Oracle Internet Directory must be recovered with the ODS and ODSSM schemas to the
most recent point in time.
2.5.2 Recommendations for Oracle Virtual Directory
Oracle Virtual Directory is an LDAP Version 3-enabled service that provides an abstracted view of one or more enterprise data sources. Oracle Virtual Directory
consolidates multiple data sources into a single directory view, enabling you to integrate LDAP-aware applications with diverse directory server data stores.
This section describes various Oracle Virtual Directory artifacts and provides recommendations for disaster recovery.
Artifacts in the Database Oracle Virtual Directory does not have any database dependencies.
Special Considerations The load balancer virtual hosts required for Oracle Virtual Directory should be
configured on both the production and standby sites.
Synchronization Recommendations The directory tier must be manually synchronized with the standby site after making
configuration changes and applying patches.
Recovery Recommendations Recover the Oracle Virtual Directory instance.
2.5.3 Recommendations for Oracle Directory Integration Platform
Oracle Directory Integration Platform is a J2EE application that enables you to synchronize data between other directories or databases and Oracle Internet Directory.
Oracle Directory Integration Platform includes services and interfaces that allow you to deploy synchronization solutions with other enterprise repositories. It can also be
used to provide Oracle Internet Directory interoperability with third party meta-directory solutions.
Recommendations for Fusion Middleware Components 2-23
This section describes various Oracle Directory Integration Platform artifacts and provides recommendations for disaster recovery.
Artifacts in the Database The ODS and ODSSM schemas are part of the Identity Management database. Quartz
jobs are in the ODSSM schema.
Synchronization Recommendations The application tier and data tier must be manually synchronized with the standby
site after making configuration changes and applying patches.
Recovery Recommendations Oracle Internet Directory must be recovered with the ODS and ODSSM schemas to the
most recent point in time, along with the Managed Server running the Oracle Directory Integration Platform application, and the associated Oracle Internet
Directory instances.
