Preupgrade Procedure Procedure to Upgrade a Connector

6-44 Oracle Fusion Middleware Administrators Guide for Oracle Identity Manager Wizard Mode Upgrade in Staging Environment To perform the wizard mode upgrade on the staging server: 1. Create a backup of the Oracle Identity Manager database. 2. Create Oracle Identity Manager metadata MDS backup. See MDS Utilities and User Modifiable Metadata Files in the Oracle Fusion Middleware Developers Guide for Oracle Identity Manager for information about the utilities that you can use to modify Oracle Identity Manager metadata. 3. Run the connector preupgrade utility. A validation script is provided with Oracle Identity Manager. This script performs the following functions: ■ Determines whether the connector that you want to upgrade has been defined in Oracle Identity Manager In other words, the script checks whether the connector XML stored in the database when the connector was installeddefined is consistent with the connector object definitions in the database. Apart from checking the consistency of the connector XML, it also checks whether the Connector XML is present in Oracle Identity Manager Database or not. If it is not present, then it displays the corresponding message to define the connector before proceeding with upgrade. Refer the Defining Connectors on page 6-11 to perform the procedure to define a connector. ■ Identifies the Oracle Identity Manager scheduled tasks that are currently running. You must disable all scheduled tasks that belong to the source connector before you proceed with the upgrade procedure. In addition, it is recommended to disable all other scheduled tasks before proceeding with the upgrade procedure. ■ Identifies the Attestation tasks associated with the resource object of the connector. You must complete all the attestation tasks that belong to the source connector before you proceed with the upgrade procedure. ■ Identifies all the pending requests associated with the resource objects of the connectors. You must either close or complete all the pending requests that belong to the source connector before you proceed with the upgrade procedure. To run the validation script: a. Ensure that Oracle Identity Manager is running. b. In a command window, change to the OIM_HOMEserverbin directory. c. Run the script as follows: For Unix: sh ConnectorPreUpgradeUtil.sh Note: You need to perform preupgrade and post upgrade steps while performing wizard mode upgrade.
