8-52 Oracle Fusion Middleware High Availability Guide Since Oracle Directory Services Manager and Oracle Enterprise Manager Fusion Middleware Control are required to manage Oracle Virtual Directory effectively, it is recommended that Oracle Virtual Directory be deployed as part of an Oracle WebLogic Server domain. For information on configuring Oracle Virtual Directory and Oracle Directory Services Manager in a collocated configuration, see Section 8.7, Collocated Architecture High Availability. In a high availability environment, it is recommended that Oracle Virtual Directory be set up in a clustered deployment, where the clustered Oracle Virtual Directory instances access the same Oracle RAC database repository or LDAP repository.

8.4.3.1 Configuring Oracle Virtual Directory Without a WebLogic Domain

This section describes the steps to deploy Oracle Virtual Directory without an Oracle WebLogic Server domain.

8.4.3.1.1 Configuring Oracle Virtual Directory on OVDHOST1 Follow these steps to configure

the Oracle Virtual Directory instance on OVDHOST1:

1. Ensure that the system, patch, kernel and other requirements are met. These are

listed in Oracle Fusion Middleware Installation Guide for Oracle Identity Management in the Oracle Fusion Middleware documentation library for the platform and version you are using.

2. Ensure that Oracle Identity Management software has been installed and

upgraded on OVDHOST1 as described in Section 8.3.3.1, Installing Oracle Fusion Middleware Components.

3. Ensure that ports 6501 and 7501 are not in use by any service on the computer by

issuing these commands for the operating system you are using. If a port is not in use, no output is returned from the command. On UNIX: netstat -an | grep LISTEN | grep :6501 netstat -an | grep LISTEN | grep :7501 On Windows: netstat -an | findstr LISTEN | findstr :6501 netstat -an | findstr LISTEN | findstr :7501 Note: When Oracle Virtual Directory is installed on a host using the Configure without a Domain option in the Oracle Identity Management 11g installer, by default the installer uses ovd1 as the component name for the Oracle Virtual Directory instance. During a Configure without a Domain installation, the installer cannot detect if another Oracle Virtual Directory instance with a component name of ovd1 already exists on the host and is registered with a domain. The Oracle Virtual Directory instances installed on OVDHOST1 and OVDHOST2 in Section 8.4.3.1.1, Configuring Oracle Virtual Directory on OVDHOST1 and Section 8.4.3.1.2, Configuring Oracle Virtual Directory on OVDHOST2 are installed using the Configure without a Domain installation option. Configuring High Availability for Identity Management Components 8-53 4. If the port is in use if the command returns output identifying the port, you must free the port. On UNIX: Remove the entries for ports 6501 and 7501 in the etcservices file and restart the services, or restart the computer. On Windows: Stop the component that is using the port. 5. Copy the staticports.ini file from the Disk1stageResponse directory to a temporary directory. 6. Edit the staticports.ini file that you copied to the temporary directory to assign the following custom ports uncomment the lines where you specify the port numbers for Oracle Virtual Directory: The Non-SSL LDAP port for OVD Oracle Virtual Directory Non-SSL Port No for LDAP= 6501 The SSL LDAP Port for OVD Oracle Virtual Directory SSL Port No for LDAP = 7501 7. Start the Oracle Identity Management 11g Configuration Assistant located under the ORACLE_HOMEbin directory as follows: On UNIX, issue this command: .config.sh On Windows, double-click config.exe
