2.5 Creating OAAM Users

Before you can access the Oracle Adaptive Access Manager Administration Console, you must create users. Creating these users allows you to use OAAM. The user can be created in the WebLogic Administration Console. Details for creating an administration user in the WebLogic Administration Console are provided below. If you want to take care of user and group creation in the external LDAP store, see Creating Users and Groups for Oracle Adaptive Access Manager in the Oracle Fusion Middleware Enterprise Deployment Guide for Oracle Identity Management. You create a user as follows:

1. Log in to the Oracle WebLogic Administration Console for your WebLogic

administration domain.

in the security realm.

6. Click the newly created user, user1.

7. Click the Groups tab.

Note: If you delete and recreate the Oracle Adaptive Access Manager 11g domain, make sure you use the backed-up secret keys when setting the encryption keys so that the existing data in the Oracle Adaptive Access Manager database can be decrypted properly.
