Preface

The IBM® Tivoli® Identity Manager Oracle ERP for Windows Adapter (Oracle ERP

Adapter) enables connectivity between the IBM Tivoli Identity Manager Server and

a network of systems running the Oracle ERP resources. After the adapter is

installed and configured, IBM Tivoli Identity Manager manages access to

Windows® resources with your site’s security system. This manual describes how

to install and prepare an Oracle ERP Adapter.

Note: The program that is used to connect the managed resource to the IBM Tivoli

Identity Manager Server is now called an adapter. The term adapter replaces

the previously used term agent. The user interface used to configure the

adapter still refers to an adapter as an agent.

xii IBM Tivoli Identity Manager: Oracle ERP Adapter Installation and Configuration Guide

Chapter 1. Overview of the Oracle ERP adapter

An adapter is a program that provides an interface between a managed resource

and the IBM Tivoli Identity Manager Server. Adapters might or might not reside

on the managed resource and the IBM Tivoli Identity Manager Server manages

access to the resource by using your security system. Adapters function as trusted

virtual administrators on the target platform, performing such tasks as creating

login IDs, suspending IDs, and performing other functions administrators normally

run manually. The adapter runs as a service, independent of whether or not a user

is logged on to the IBM Tivoli Identity Manager Server.

The IBM IBM Tivoli Identity Manager Oracle ERP Adapter enables connectivity

between the IBM Tivoli Identity Manager Server and the Oracle ERP resources.

This installation guide provides the basic information that you need to install and

configure the Oracle ERP Adapter. This chapter provides an overview of the

adapter and the features of the adapter.

Features of the adapter

You can use the Oracle ERP Adapter to automate the following administrative

tasks:

v Creating an Oracle ERP account.

v Changing an Oracle ERP account.

v Suspending an Oracle ERP account.

v Restoring an Oracle ERP account.

v Reconciling all Oracle ERP accounts and supported data.

9. On the Installation Completed window, click Finish to exit the program.

10. In the temporary directory, locate the storedpr.sql file and commit the file

against the Oracle ERP database the adapter is intended to manage. The

storedpr.sql file contains procedures and views that the adapter uses to

manage Oracle ERP accounts.

Importing the adapter profile into the IBM Tivoli Identity Manager

Server

Before you can add an adapter as a service to the IBM Tivoli Identity Manager

Server, the server must have an adapter profile to recognize the adapter as a

service. The files that are packaged with the Oracle ERP Adapter include the

adapter JAR file, ERPProfile.jar. Using the Import feature of the Tivoli Identity

Manager Server, you can import the adapter profile into the server as a service

profile.

The ERPProfile.jar file includes all of the files that are needed to define the adapter

schema, account form, service form and profile properties. The ERPProfile.jar file

will be referenced in this document to make any changes to the schema or the

profile. You will be required to extract the files from the JAR file, make changes to

the necessary files, and repackage the JAR file with the updated files. For more

information on how to update the JAR files, see “Copy the ERPProfile.jar file and

extract the files” on page 49.

Importing the adapter profile

An adapter profile defines the types of resources that the IBM Tivoli Identity

Manager Server can manage. You must import the adapter profile into the IBM

Tivoli Identity Manager Server before using the Oracle ERP Adapter. The profile is

used to create a Oracle ERP Adapter service on the IBM Tivoli Identity Manager

Server and to communicate with the adapter.

Before you begin to import the adapter profile, verify that the following conditions

are met:

v The IBM Tivoli Identity Manager Server must be installed and running.

v You must have Administrator authority on the IBM Tivoli Identity Manager

Server.

In order to import the adapter profile, complete the following steps:

1. Log in to the IBM Tivoli Identity Manager Server using an account that has the

authority to perform administrative tasks.

2. On the Main Menu Navigation Bar, select the Configuration tab.

3. On the Configuration window, select Import/Export → Import tabs.

4. On the Import window, in the File to Upload field, type the location of the

ERPProfile.jar file, or click Browse to locate the file.

5. Click the Import data into Identity Manager link to import the adapter profile

into the IBM Tivoli Identity Manager Server.

v If the adapter profile is imported successfully, the following message is

displayed:

Profile installation complete.

v If the adapter profile is not imported successfully, the following message is

displayed:

Profile installation failed.

Chapter 2. Installing and configuring the Oracle ERP adapter 5

When you import the adapter profile, if you receive an error related to the

schema, the trace.log file will contain information about that error. The

trace.log file location is specified by the handler.file.fileDir property that

is defined in the IBM Tivoli Identity Manager enRoleLogging.properties file,

which is installed in the IBM Tivoli Identity Manager \data directory.

Creating an Oracle ERP service

After the adapter profile is imported into the IBM Tivoli Identity Manager Server,

you must create a provisioning service to allow IBM Tivoli Identity Manager to

communicate with the adapter.

In order to create a provisioning service, complete the following steps:

1. Log in to the IBM Tivoli Identity Manager Server using an account that has the

authority to perform administrative tasks.

2. On the Main Menu Navigation Bar, click the Provisioning tab.

3. On the Provisioning window, click the Manage Services tab.

4. On the Manage Services window, click Add.

5. From the list of service types, select Oracle ERP Profile, and then click

Continue. The Oracle ERP Adapter service form is displayed. The service form

contains the following fields:

Service Name

Specify a name that defines this Oracle ERP service on the IBM Tivoli

Identity Manager Server. Service Name is a required field.

Configuring event notification

Event notification is a feature of the Oracle ERP Adapter that updates the IBM

Tivoli Identity Manager Server at set intervals. Event notification detects changes

that are made on the managed resource and updates the IBM Tivoli Identity

Manager Server with the changes. You can enable event notification if you want to

have updated information from the managed resource sent back to the IBM Tivoli

Identity Manager Server between full reconciliations. Event notification is not

intended to replace reconciliations on the IBM Tivoli Identity Manager Server.

Chapter 3. Configuring the Oracle ERP Adapter for IBM Tivoli Identity Manager 13

When event notification is enabled, a database of the reconciliation data is kept on

the machine where the adapter is installed. The database is updated with the

changes that are requested by the IBM Tivoli Identity Manager Server and will

remain synchronized with the server. You can specify an interval for the event

notification process to compare the database to data that currently exists on the

managed resource. When the interval has elapsed, any differences between the

managed resource and the database are forwarded to the IBM Tivoli Identity

Manager Server and updated in the local snapshot database.

There are several steps to enabling event notification. These steps assume that the

adapter is communicating successfully with the managed resource and the IBM

Tivoli Identity Manager Server.

First, you must configure the host name, port number, and login information for

the IBM Tivoli Identity Manager Server. In order to identify the server for the

DAML protocol to use, complete the following steps:

1. At the Agent Protocol Configuration Menu, select Configure Protocol. For more

information on configuring a protocol, see “Changing protocol configuration

settings” on page 10.

2. Type the letter of the menu option for the SRV_NODENAME property.

3. Specify the IP address or server name that identifies the IBM Tivoli Identity

Manager Server, and press Enter.

The Protocol Properties Menu is displayed with your new settings.

4. Type the letter of the menu option for the SRV_PORTNUMBER property.

5. Specify the port number that the adapter uses to connect to the Tivoli Identity

Manager Server for event notification and press Enter.

The Protocol Properties Menu is displayed with your new settings.

The example menu shows all of the options displayed when Event Notification is

enabled. If Event Notification is disabled, not all of the options are displayed. In

order to set Event Notification for the IBM Tivoli Identity Manager Server,

complete the following steps:

Modifying an event notification context

An event notification context corresponds to a service on the IBM Tivoli Identity

Manager Server. Some adapters support multiple services. One Oracle ERP

Adapter can have several IBM Tivoli Identity Manager services, by specifying a

different base point for each service.

The base point for the Oracle ERP Adapter is the point in the directory server that

is used as the root for the adapter. This point can be an organizational unit (OU) or

domain container (DC) base point. Because the base point is an optional value, if a

value is not specified, the adapter uses the default domain of the machine on

which it is installed.

You can have multiple event notification contexts, but you must have at least one

adapter. In the example screen below, note that Context1, Context2, and Context3

are three different contexts, all having a different base point.

In order to modify an event notification context, complete the following steps:

1. At the Event Notification Menu, type H. The Modify Context Menu is

displayed.

Adding search attributes for event notification

For some adapters, you might need to specify an attribute-value pair for one or

more contexts. These attribute-value pairs, which are defined by completing the

steps below, serve multiple purposes:

Chapter 3. Configuring the Oracle ERP Adapter for IBM Tivoli Identity Manager 17

v When multiple services are supported by a single adapter, each service needs to

specify one or more attributes to differentiate it from the other services.

v The search attributes are passed to the event notification process, once the event

notification interval has occurred or is started manually. For each context, a full

search request is sent to the adapter. Additionally, the attributes specified for

that context are passed to the adapter.

v When the IBM Tivoli Identity Manager Server initiates a reconciliation process,

the adapter replaces the local database that represents this service with the new

database.

In order to add search attributes, complete the following steps:

1. At the Modify Context Menu for the context, type A. The Reconciliation

Attribute Passed to Agent Menu is displayed.

Reconciliation Attributes Passed to Agent for Context: Context1

----------------------------------------------------

a required attribute for the Oracle ERP Adapter and the value must be set to

the value entered for Oracle Service on the Adapter Service Form on the IBM

Tivoli Identity Manager Server.

2. Type the letter of the menu option that you want to change.

The supported attribute names will be displayed with two asterisks (**) in front

of each name. When you type the letter of an attribute, it will toggle the

asterisks on and off. Attributes without asterisks will not be updated during an

event notification.

The Reconciliation Attributes Passed to Agent Menu is displayed with the

changes displayed.

Configuring the target DN for event notification contexts

The target DN field holds the unique name of the service that receives event

notification updates.

In order to configure the target DN, complete the following steps:

1. At the Modify Context Menu for the context, type B.

2. At the Enter Target DN prompt, type the target DN for the context, and press

Enter. The target DN for the event notification context must be in the following

format:

erservicename=erservicename,o=organizationname,ou=tenantname,rootsuffix

Each element of the DN is defined as follows:

34 IBM Tivoli Identity Manager: Oracle ERP Adapter Installation and Configuration Guide

Chapter 5. Configuring SSL authentication for the Oracle ERP

Adapter

In order to establish a secure connection between a IBM Tivoli Identity Manager

adapter and the IBM Tivoli Identity Manager Server, you must configure the

adapter and the server to use the Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) authentication with

the default communication protocol, DAML. By configuring the adapter for SSL,

you ensure that the IBM Tivoli Identity Manager Server verifies the identity of the

adapter before a secure connection is established.

You can configure SSL authentication for connections that originate from the IBM

Tivoli Identity Manager Server or from the adapter. Typically, the IBM Tivoli

Identity Manager Server initiates a connection to the adapter in order to set or

retrieve the value of a managed attribute on the adapter. However, depending on

the security requirements of your environment, you might need to configure SSL

authentication for connections that originate from the adapter. For example, if the

adapter uses events to notify the IBM Tivoli Identity Manager Server of changes to

attributes on the adapter, you can configure SSL authentication for Web

connections that originate from the adapter to the Web server used by the IBM

Tivoli Identity Manager Server.

In a production environment, you need to enable SSL security; however, for testing

purposes you might want to disable SSL. If an external application that

communicates with the adapter (such as the IBM Tivoli Identity Manager Server) is

set to use server authentication, you must enable SSL on the adapter to verify the

certificate that the application presents.

This chapter presents an overview of SSL authentication, certificates, and how to

enable SSL authentication using the CertTool utility.

Overview of SSL and digital certificates

When you deploy IBM Tivoli Identity Manager in an enterprise network, you must

secure communication between the IBM Tivoli Identity Manager Server and the

software products and components with which the server communicates. The

industry-standard SSL protocol, which uses signed digital certificates from a

certificate authority (CA) for authentication, is used to secure communication in a

IBM Tivoli Identity Manager deployment. Additionally, SSL provides encryption of

the data exchanged between the applications. Encryption makes data transmitted

over the network intelligible only to the intended recipient.

Signed digital certificates enable two applications connecting in a network to

authenticate each other’s identity. An application acting as an SSL server presents

its credentials in a signed digital certificate to verify to an SSL client that it is the

entity it claims to be. An application acting as an SSL server can also be configured

to require the application acting as an SSL client to present its credentials in a

certificate, thereby completing a two-way exchange of certificates. Signed

certificates are issued by a third-party certificate authority for a fee. Some utilities,

such as those provided by OpenSSL, can also issue signed certificates.

A certificate-authority certificate (CA certificate) must be installed to verify the

origin of a signed digital certificate. When an application receives another

© Copyright IBM Corp. 2003, 2005 35

application’s signed certificate, it uses a CA certificate to verify the originator of

the certificate. A certificate authority can be well-known and widely used by other

organizations, or it can be local to a specific region or company. Many applications,

such as Web browsers, are configured with the CA certificates of well−known

certificate authorities to eliminate or reduce the task of distributing CA certificates

throughout the security zones in a network.

Private keys, public keys, and digital certificates

Keys, digital certificates, and trusted certificate authorities are used to establish and

verify the identities of applications.

SSL uses public key encryption technology for authentication. In public key

encryption, a public key and a private key are generated for an application. Data

encrypted with the public key can only be decrypted using the corresponding

private key. Similarly, the data encrypted with the private key can only be

decrypted using the corresponding public key. The private key is

password-protected in a key database file so that only the owner can access the

private key to decrypt messages that are encrypted using the corresponding public

key.

A signed digital certificate is an industry-standard method of verifying the

authenticity of an entity, such as a server, client, or application. In order to ensure

maximum security, a certificate is issued by a third-party certificate authority. A

certificate contains the following information to verify the identity of an entity:

Organizational information

This section of the certificate contains information that uniquely identifies

the owner of the certificate, such as organizational name and address. You

supply this information when you generate a certificate using a certificate

management utility.

Public key

The receiver of the certificate uses the public key to decipher encrypted

text sent by the certificate owner to verify its identity. A public key has a

corresponding private key that encrypts the text.

Certificate authority’s distinguished name

The issuer of the certificate identifies itself with this information.

Digital signature

The issuer of the certificate signs it with a digital signature to verify its

authenticity. This signature is compared to the signature on the

corresponding CA certificate to verify that the certificate originated from a

trusted certificate authority.

Web browsers, servers, and other SSL-enabled applications generally accept as

genuine any digital certificate that is signed by a trusted certificate authority and is

otherwise valid. For example, a digital certificate can be invalidated because it has

expired or the CA certificate used to verify it has expired, or because the

distinguished name in the digital certificate of the server does not match the

distinguished name specified by the client.

Self-signed certificates

You can use self-signed certificates to test an SSL configuration before you create

and install a signed certificate issued by a certificate authority. A self-signed

certificate contains a public key, information about the owner of the certificate, and

the owner’s signature. It has an associated private key, but it does not verify the

36 IBM Tivoli Identity Manager: Oracle ERP Adapter Installation and Configuration Guide

origin of the certificate through a third-party certificate authority. Once you

generate a self-signed certificate on an SSL server application, you must extract it

and add it to the certificate registry of the SSL client application.

This procedure is the equivalent of installing a CA certificate that corresponds to a

server certificate. However, you do not include the private key in the file when

you extract a self-signed certificate to use as the equivalent of a CA certificate.

Use a key management utility to generate a self-signed certificate and a private

key, to extract a self-signed certificate, and to add a self-signed certificate.

Where and how you choose to use self-signed certificates depends on your security

requirements. In order to achieve the highest level of authentication between

critical software components, do not use self-signed certificates, or use them

selectively. For example, you can choose to authenticate applications that protect

server data with signed digital certificates, and use self-signed certificates to

authenticate Web browsers or IBM Tivoli Identity Manager adapters.

If you are using self-signed certificates, in the following procedures you can

substitute a self-signed certificate for a certificate and CA certificate pair.

Certificate and key formats

Certificates and keys are stored in files with the following formats:

.pem format

A privacy-enhanced mail (.pem ) format file begins and ends with the

following lines:

-----BEGIN CERTIFICATE-----

-----END CERTIFICATE-----

A .pem file format supports multiple digital certificates, including a

certificate chain. If your organization uses certificate chaining, use this

format to create CA certificates.

.arm format

An .arm file contains a base-64 encoded ASCII representation of a

certificate, including its public key, but not its private key. An .arm file

format is generated and used by the IBM Key Management utility.

.der format

A .der file contains binary data. A .der file can only be used for a single

certificate, unlike a .pem file, which can contain multiple certificates.

.pfx format (PKCS12)

A PKCS12 file is a portable file that contains a certificate and a

corresponding private key. This format is useful for converting from one

type of SSL implementation to a different implementation. For example,

you can create and export a PKCS12 file using the IBM Key Management

utility, then import the file to another machine using the CertTool utility.

The use of SSL authentication

When you start the adapter, the available connection protocols are loaded. The

DAML protocol is the only available protocol that supports the use of SSL

authentication. You can specify to use the DAML SSL implementation.

Chapter 5. Configuring SSL authentication for the Oracle ERP Adapter 37

The DAML SSL implementation uses a certificate registry to store private keys and

certificates. The location of the certificate registry is managed internally by the

CertTool key and certificate management tool; therefore, you do not specify the

location of the registry when you perform certificate management tasks.

For more information on the DAML protocol, see “Changing protocol

configuration settings” on page 10.

Configuring certificates for SSL authentication

Use the following procedures to configure the adapter for one-way or two-way SSL

authentication using signed certificates. In order to perform these procedures, use

the CertTool utility.

Configuring certificates for one-way SSL authentication

In this scenario, the IBM Tivoli Identity Manager Server and the Tivoli Identity

Manager adapter are set to use SSL. Client authentication is not set on either

application. The Tivoli Identity Manager Server operates as the SSL client and

initiates the connection. The adapter operates as the SSL server and responds by

sending its signed certificate to the Tivoli Identity Manager Server. The Tivoli

Identity Manager Server uses the CA certificate that is installed to validate the

certificate sent by the adapter.

In Figure 2, Application A operates as the IBM Tivoli Identity Manager Server, and

Application B operates as the IBM Tivoli Identity Manager adapter.

In order to configure one-way SSL, perform the following tasks for each

application:

1. On the adapter, complete these steps:

a. Start the CertTool utility.

b. In order to configure the SSL-server application with a signed certificate

issued by a certificate authority:

1) Create a certificate signing request (CSR) and private key. This step

creates the certificate with an embedded public key and a separate

private key and places the private key in the PENDING_KEY registry

value.

2) Submit the CSR to the certificate authority using the instructions

supplied by the CA. When you submit the CSR, specify that you want

the root CA certificate returned with the server certificate.

Figure 2. One-way SSL authentication (server authentication)

38 IBM Tivoli Identity Manager: Oracle ERP Adapter Installation and Configuration Guide

2. On the Tivoli Identity Manager Server, complete one of these steps:

v If you are configuring the use of a signed certificate issued by a well-known

CA, ensure that the Tivoli Identity Manager Server has stored the root

certificate of the CA (CA certificate) in its keystore. If the keystore does not

contain the CA certificate, extract the CA certificate from the adapter and add

it to the keystore of the server.

v If you are configuring the use of self-signed certificates:

– If you generated the self-signed certificate on the Tivoli Identity Manager

Server, the certificate is already installed in its keystore.

– If you generated the self-signed certificate using the key management

utility of another application, extract the certificate from that application’s

keystore and add it to the keystore of the Tivoli Identity Manager Server.

Configuring certificates for two-way SSL authentication

In this scenario, the IBM Tivoli Identity Manager Server and the Tivoli Identity

Manager adapter are set to use SSL and the adapter is set to use client

authentication. Once sending its certificate to the Tivoli Identity Manager Server,

the adapter requests identity verification from the server, which sends its signed

certificate to the adapter. Both applications are configured with signed certificates

and corresponding CA certificates.

In Figure 3, the IBM Tivoli Identity Manager Server operates as Application A, and

the IBM Tivoli Identity Manager adapter operates as Application B.

The following procedure assumes that you have already configured the adapter

and Tivoli Identity Manager Server for one-way SSL authentication using the

procedure described in “Configuring certificates for one-way SSL authentication”

on page 38. Therefore, if you are using signed certificates from a CA:

v The adapter is configured with a private key and a signed certificate that was

issued by a CA.

v The Tivoli Identity Manager Server is configured with the CA certificate of the

CA that issued the signed certificate of the adapter.

In order to complete the certificate configuration for two-way SSL, perform the

following tasks:

Figure 3. Two-way SSL authentication (client authentication)

Chapter 5. Configuring SSL authentication for the Oracle ERP Adapter 39

1. On the Tivoli Identity Manager Server, create a CSR and private key, obtain a

certificate from a CA, install the CA certificate, install the newly signed

certificate, and extract the CA certificate to a temporary file.

2. On the adapter, add the CA certificate that was extracted from the keystore of

the Tivoli Identity Manager Server to the adapter.

When you have finished the two-way certificate configuration, each application has

its own certificate and private key and the CA certificate of the CA that issued the

certificates for each application.

Configuring certificates when the adapter operates as an SSL

client

In this scenario, the adapter operates as an SSL client in addition to operating as

an SSL server. This scenario applies if the adapter initiates a connection to the Web

server (used by the IBM Tivoli Identity Manager Server) to send an event

notification. For example, the adapter initiates the connection and the Web server

responds by presenting its certificate to the adapter.

Figure 4 illustrates how a IBM Tivoli Identity Manager adapter operates as an SSL

sever and an SSL client. When communicating with the IBM Tivoli Identity

Manager Server, the adapter sends its certificate for authentication. When

communicating with the Web server, the adapter receives the certificate of the Web

server.

If the Web Server is configured for two-way SSL authentication, it verifies the

identity of the adapter, which sends its signed certificate to the Web server (not

shown in the illustration). In order to enable two-way SSL authentication between

the adapter and Web server, use the following procedure:

1. Configure the Web server to use client authentication.

2. Follow the procedure for creating and installing a signed certificate on the Web

server.

3. Install the CA certificate on the adapter using the CertTool utility.

4. Add the CA certificate corresponding to the signed certificate of the adapter to

the Web server.

Chapter 5. Configuring SSL authentication for the Oracle ERP Adapter 41

From the Main Menu, you can generate a private key and certificate request, install

and delete certificates, register and unregister certificates, and list certificates. The

following sections summarize the purpose of each group of options.

The first set of options (A through D) allows you to generate a CSR and install the

returned signed certificate on the adapter.

A. Generate private key and certificate request

Generate a CSR and the associated private key that is sent to the certificate

authority. For more information on option A, see “Generating a private key

and certificate request” on page 43.

B. Install certificate from file

Install a certificate from a file. This file must be the signed certificate

returned by the CA in response to the CSR that is generated by option A.

For more information on option B, see “Installing the certificate” on page

44.

C. Install certificate and key from a PKCS12 file

Install a certificate from a PKCS12 format file that includes both the public

certificate and a private key. If options A and B are not used to obtain a

certificate, the certificate that you use must be in PKCS12 format. For more

information on option C, see “Installing the certificate and key from a

PKCS12 file” on page 44.

D. View current installed certificate

View the certificate that is installed on the system. For more information

on option D, see “Viewing the installed certificate” on page 45.

The second set of options enable you to install root CA certificates on the adapter.

A CA certificate is used by the IBM Tivoli Identity Manager adapter to validate the

corresponding certificate presented by a client, such as the IBM Tivoli Identity

Manager Server.

E. List CA certificates

Show the installed CA certificates. The adapter only communicates with

IBM Tivoli Identity Manager Servers whose certificates are validated by

one of the installed CA certificates.

F. Install a CA certificate

Install a new CA certificate so that certificates generated by this CA can be

validated. The CA certificate file can either be in X.509 or PEM encoded

formats. For more information on how to install a CA certificate, see

“Installing a CA certificate” on page 45.

G. Delete a CA certificate

Remove one of the installed CA certificates. For more information on how

to delete a CA certificate, see “Deleting a CA certificate” on page 45.

The remaining options (H through K) apply to adapters that must authenticate the

application (for example, the IBM Tivoli Identity Manager Server or the Web

server) to which the adapter is sending information. These options enable you to

register certificates on the adapter. For IBM Tivoli Identity Manager Version 4.5 or

earlier, the signed certificate of the IBM Tivoli Identity Manager Server must be

registered with an adapter to enable client authentication on the adapter. If you do

not intend to upgrade an existing adapter to use CA certificates for client

authentication, the signed certificate presented by the IBM Tivoli Identity Manager

Server must be registered with the adapter.

42 IBM Tivoli Identity Manager: Oracle ERP Adapter Installation and Configuration Guide

If you configure the adapter to use event notification, or client authentication is

enabled in DAML, then you must install the CA certificate corresponding to the

signed certificate of the IBM Tivoli Identity Manager Server using the Install a CA

certificate option, option F.

H. List registered certificates

List all registered certificates that will be accepted for communications. For

more information on listing registered certificates, see “Viewing registered

certificates” on page 46.

I. Register a certificate

Register a new certificate. The certificate to be registered be in Base 64

encoded X.509 format or PEM. For more information on registering

certificates, see “Registering a certificate” on page 46.

J. Unregister a certificate

Unregister (remove) a certificate from the registered list. For more

information on unregistering certificates, see “Unregistering a certificate”

on page 46.

K. Export certificate and key to PKCS12 file

Export a previously installed certificate and private key. You will be

prompted for the filename and a password for encryption. For more

information on exporting a certificate and key to a PKCS12 file, see

“Exporting a certificate and key to PKCS12 file” on page 47.

Generating a private key and certificate request

A certificate signing request is an unsigned certificate that is a text file. When you

submit an unsigned certificate to a certificate authority, the CA signs the certificate

with the private digital signature that is included in their corresponding CA

certificate. When the CSR is signed, it becomes a valid certificate. A CSR contains

information about your organization, such as the organization name, country, and

the public key for your Web server.

In order to generate a CSR file, complete these steps:

1. At the Main Menu of the CertTool, type A. The following message and prompt

are displayed:

Enter values for certificate request (press enter to skip value)

-------------------------------------------------------------------------

2. At the Organization prompt, type your organization name, and press Enter.

3. At the Organizational Unit prompt, type the organizational unit, and press

Enter.

4. At the Agent Name prompt, type the name of the adapter you are requesting

a certificate for, and press Enter.

5. At the Email prompt, type the e-mail address for the contact person for this

request, and press Enter.

6. At the State prompt, type the state in which the adapter resides (if the adapter

is in the United States), and press Enter. Some certificate authorities do not

accept two letter abbreviations for states, so you must type the full name of

the state.

7. At the Country prompt, type the country in which the adapter resides, and

press Enter.

8. At the Locality prompt, type the name of the city in which the adapter

resides, and press Enter.

Chapter 5. Configuring SSL authentication for the Oracle ERP Adapter 43

9. At the Accept these values prompt, type Y to accept the values displayed, or

type N to re-enter the values, and press Enter.

The private key and certificate request are generated once the values are

accepted.

10. At the Enter name of file to store PEM cert request prompt, type the name of

the file that you want to use to store the values you specified during the

previous steps, and press Enter.

11. Press Enter to continue. The certificate request and input values are written to

the file you specified, and the Main Menu is displayed again.

You can now request a certificate from a trusted CA by sending the .pem file that

you just generated to a certificate authority vendor.

Example of certificate signing request

Your CSR file will look similar to the following example:

Chapter 6. Customizing the Oracle ERP adapter

You can update the Oracle ERP Adapter JAR file, ERPProfile.jar, to make changes

to the adapter schema, account form, service form, and profile properties. In order

to make such updates, you must extract the files from the JAR file, make changes

to the necessary files, and repackage the JAR file with the updated files.

Complete these steps to customize the Oracle ERP Adapter profile:

1. Copy the JAR file to a temporary directory and extract the files. For more

information on extracting the files, see “Copy the ERPProfile.jar file and extract

the files.”

2. Make the appropriate file changes.

3. Install the new attributes on the IBM Tivoli Identity Manager Server. For more

information on updating this file, see “Create a new JAR file and install the

new attributes on the IBM Tivoli Identity Manager Server” on page 50.

Copy the ERPProfile.jar file and extract the files

The profile JAR file, ERPProfile.jar, is included in the Oracle ERP Adapter

compressed file that you downloaded from the IBM Web site. The ERPProfile.jar

file contains the following files:

v CustomLabels.properties

v erOracleERPAccount.xml

v erOracleERPDAMLService.xml

v resource.def

v schema.dsml

v xforms.xml

You can modify these files to customize your environment.

When you finish updating the profile JAR file, install it on the IBM Tivoli Identity

Manager Server. For more information on the profile installation, see “Importing

the adapter profile into the IBM Tivoli Identity Manager Server” on page 5.

In order to modify the ERPProfile.jar file, complete the following steps:

1. Log on to the system where the Oracle ERP Adapter is installed.

2. On the Start menu, click Programs → Accessories → Command Prompt.

3. Copy the ERPProfile.jar file into a temporary directory.

4. Extract the contents of` the ERPProfile.jar file into the temporary directory by

running the following command:

cd c:\temp

jar -xvf ERPProfile.jar

The jar command will create the c:\temp\ADProfile directory.

5. Edit the appropriate file.

© Copyright IBM Corp. 2003, 2005 49

Create a new JAR file and install the new attributes on the IBM Tivoli

Identity Manager Server

Once you modify the schema.dsml and CustomLabels.properties files, you must

import these files, and any other files that were modified for the adapter, into the

IBM Tivoli Identity Manager Server for the changes to take effect.

In order to install the new attributes, complete the following steps:

1. Create a new JAR file using the files in the \temp directory by running the

following commands:

cd c:\temp

jar -cvf ERPProfile.jar ERPProfile

2. Import the ERPProfile.jar file into the IBM Tivoli Identity Manager Application

Server. For more information on importing the file, see “Importing the adapter

profile” on page 5.

3. Stop and start the directory server.

4. Stop and start the Oracle ERP Adapter service for the changes to take effect.

Managing passwords when restoring accounts

When a person’s accounts are restored from being previously suspended, you are

prompted to supply a new password for the reinstated accounts. However, there

are circumstances when you might want to circumvent this behavior.

The password requirement to restore an account on Oracle ERP resources falls into

two categories: allowed and required. How each restore action interacts with its

corresponding managed resource depends on either the managed resource, or the

business processes that you implement. Certain resources will reject a password

when a request is made to restore an account. In this case, you can configure IBM

Tivoli Identity Manager to forego the new password requirement. You can set the

Oracle ERP Adapter to require a new password when the account is restored, if

your company has a business process in place that dictates that the account

restoration process must be accompanied by resetting the password.

In the resource.def file, you can define whether or not a password is required as a

new protocol option. When you import the adapter profile, if an option is not

specified, the adapter profile importer determines the correct restoration password

behavior from the schema.dsml and xforms.xml files. Adapter profile components

also enable remote services to find out if you discard a password that is entered by

the user in a situation where multiple accounts on disparate resources are being

restored. In this scenario, only some of the accounts being restored might require a

password. Remote services will discard the password from the restore action for

those managed resources that do not require them.

In order to configure the Oracle ERP Adapter to not prompt for a new password

when restoring accounts:

1. Stop the IBM Tivoli Identity Manager Server.

2. Extract the files from the ERPProfile.jar file. For more information on

customizing the adapter profile file, see “Copy the ERPProfile.jar file and

extract the files” on page 49.

3. Change to the \ADProfile directory, where the resource.def file has been

created.

4. Edit the resource.def file to add the new protocol options, for example:

50 IBM Tivoli Identity Manager: Oracle ERP Adapter Installation and Configuration Guide

<Property Name = "com.ibm.itim.remoteservices.ResourceProperties.

PASSWORD_NOT_REQUIRED_ON_RESTORE" Value = "TRUE"/>

<Property Name = "com.ibm.itim.remoteservices.ResourceProperties.

PASSWORD_NOT_ALLOWED_ON_RESTORE" Value = "FALSE"/>

By adding the two options in the example above, you are ensuring that you

will not be prompted for a password when an account is restored.

5. Create a new ERPProfile.jar file using the resource.def file and import the

adapter profile file into the IBM Tivoli Identity Manager Server. For more

information, refer to “Create a new JAR file and install the new attributes on

the IBM Tivoli Identity Manager Server” on page 50.

6. Start the IBM Tivoli Identity Manager Server again.

Note: If you are upgrading an existing adapter profile, the new adapter profile

schema will not be reflected immediately. You need to stop and start the

IBM Tivoli Identity Manager Server in order to refresh the cache and

therefore the adapter schema. For more information on upgrading an

existing adapter, see “Upgrading the Oracle ERP adapter” on page 53.

Chapter 6. Customizing the Oracle ERP adapter 51

52 IBM Tivoli Identity Manager: Oracle ERP Adapter Installation and Configuration Guide

Chapter 7. Upgrading the Oracle ERP Adapter or the ADK

You can either upgrade the Oracle ERP Adapter or the Adapter Development Kit

(ADK). The ADK is the base component of the adapter. While all adapters have the

same ADK, the remaining adapter functionality is specific to the managed

resource.

You can perform an adapter upgrade to migrate your current adapter installation

to a newer version, for example version 4.4 to version 4.6. Upgrading the adapter,

as opposed to reinstalling it, will allow you to keep your configuration settings.

Additionally, you will not have to uninstall the current adapter and install the

newer version.

However, if a code fix has been made to the ADK, instead of upgrading the entire

adapter, you can upgrade just the ADK to the newer version.

Upgrading the Oracle ERP adapter

During an upgrade, in order to maintain all of your current configuration settings,

as well as the certificate and private key, do not uninstall the old version of the

adapter before installing the new version. During the install, specify the same

installation directory where the previous adapter was installed. For more

information on how to install the adapter, see Chapter 2, “Installing and

configuring the Oracle ERP adapter,” on page 3.

If you currently have version 4.5 of the Oracle ERP Adapter installed, and you

want version 4.6, an upgrade of the adapter is necessary. Upgrading the adapter

involves several steps that you must complete in the appropriate sequence.

In order to upgrade an existing adapter, complete the following steps:

1. Stop the Oracle ERP Adapter service.

2. Install the new version of the adapter.

When the upgraded adapter starts for the first time, new log files will be created,

replacing the old files.

Upgrading the ADK

The ADK consists of the runtime library, filtering and event notification

functionality, protocol settings, and logging information. The remainder of the

adapter is comprised of the Add, Modify, Delete, and Search functions. While all

adapters have the same ADK, the remaining functionality is specific to the

managed resource.

You can use the ADK upgrade program to update the ADK portion of the adapters

that are currently installed on a machine. This allows you to install just the ADK,

and not the entire adapter. As part of the ADK upgrade, the ADK library and the

DAML protocol library are updated. In addition, the agentCfg and CertTool

binaries are updated.

© Copyright IBM Corp. 2003, 2005 53

Prior to upgrading the ADK files, the upgrade program checks the current version

of the ADK. If the current level is higher than what you are attempting to install, a

warning message is displayed.

In order to upgrade the Oracle ERP Adapter ADK, complete the following steps:

1. Download the ADK upgrade program compressed file from the IBM Web site.

2. Extract the contents of the compressed file into a temporary directory.

3. Stop the Oracle ERP Adapter service.

4. Start the upgrade program using the adkinst_win32.exe file in the temporary

directory. For example, select Run from the Start menu, and type

C:\TEMP\adkinst_win32.exe in the Open field.

If no adapter is installed, you will receive the following error message, and the

program exits:

No Agent Installed - Cannot Install ADK.

5. On the Welcome window, click Next.

6. On the Software License Agreement window, review the license agreement and

decide if you accept the terms of the license. If you do, click Accept.

7. On the Installation Information window, click Next to begin the installation.

8. On the Install Completed window, click Finish to exit the program.

Log files

Logging entries are stored in the <ADKVersion>Installer.log and

<ADKVersion>Installeropt.log files, where <ADKVersion> is the version of the ADK.

For example, ADK46Installer.log and ADK46Installeropt.log. These files are

created in the folder where you run the installation program.

54 IBM Tivoli Identity Manager: Oracle ERP Adapter Installation and Configuration Guide

Chapter 8. Uninstalling the Oracle ERP adapter

Before you remove the adapter, inform your users that the Oracle ERP Adapter

will be unavailable. If the server is taken offline, adapter requests that were

completed might not be recovered when the server is back online.

To remove the Oracle ERP Adapter, complete these steps:

1. Stop the adapter service.

2. Remove the adapter. For specific information about uninstalling the adapter, see

the online help or the information center for your IBM Tivoli Identity Manager

product.

Appendix A. Adapter attributes

As part of the adapter implementation, a dedicated account for IBM Tivoli Identity

Manager to access the Oracle ERP resources is created on the Oracle ERP resources.

The Oracle ERP Adapter consists of files and directories that are owned by the IBM

Tivoli Identity Manager account. These files establish communication with the IBM

Tivoli Identity Manager Server.

Attributes descriptions

The IBM Tivoli Identity Manager Server communicates with the Oracle ERP

Adapter using attributes that are included in transmission packets that are sent

over a network. The combination of attributes, included in the packets, depends on

the type of action that the IBM Tivoli Identity Manager Server requests from the

Oracle ERP Adapter.

Table 14 is an alphabetical listing of the attributes that are used by the Oracle ERP

Adapter. The table gives a brief description and the data type for the value of the

Appendix B. Support information

This section describes the following options for obtaining support for IBM

products:

v “Searching knowledge bases”

v “Contacting IBM Software Support”

Searching knowledge bases

If you have a problem with your IBM software, you want it resolved quickly. Begin

by searching the available knowledge bases to determine whether the resolution to

your problem is already documented.

Search the information center on your local system or

network

IBM provides extensive documentation that can be installed on your local

computer or on an intranet server. You can use the search function of this

information center to query conceptual information, instructions for completing

tasks, reference information, and support documents.

Search the Internet

If you cannot find an answer to your question in the information center, search the

Internet for the latest, most complete information that might help you resolve your

problem. To locate Internet resources for your product, open one of the following

Web sites:

v Performance and tuning information

Contacting IBM Software Support

IBM Software Support provides assistance with product defects.

© Copyright IBM Corp. 2003, 2005 61

Before contacting IBM Software Support, your company must have an active IBM

software maintenance contract, and you must be authorized to submit problems to

IBM. The type of software maintenance contract that you need depends on the

type of product you have:

v For IBM distributed software products (including, but not limited to, Tivoli,

Lotus, and Rational products, as well as DB2 and WebSphere products that run

on Windows or UNIX operating systems), enroll in Passport Advantage in one

of the following ways:

– Online: Go to the Passport Advantage Web page (http://www.lotus.com/services/passport.nsf/WebDocs/ Passport_Advantage_Home) and click How

to Enroll

– By phone: For the phone number to call in your country, go to the IBM

Software Support Web site (http://techsupport.services.ibm.com/guides/contacts.html) and click the name of your geographic region.

v For IBM eServer software products (including, but not limited to, DB2 and

WebSphere products that run in zSeries, pSeries, and iSeries environments), you

can purchase a software maintenance agreement by working directly with an

IBM sales representative or an IBM Business Partner. For more information

about support for eServer software products, go to the IBM Technical Support

Advantage Web page (http://www.ibm.com/servers/eserver/techsupport.html).

If you are not sure what type of software maintenance contract you need, call

1-800-IBMSERV (1-800-426-7378) in the United States or, from other countries, go to

the contacts page of the IBM Software Support Handbook on the Web

(http://techsupport.services.ibm.com/guides/contacts.html) and click the name of

your geographic region for phone numbers of people who provide support for

your location.

Follow the steps in this topic to contact IBM Software Support:

1. Determine the business impact of your problem.

2. Describe your problem and gather background information.

3. Submit your problem to IBM Software Support.

Determine the business impact of your problem

When you report a problem to IBM, you are asked to supply a severity level.

Therefore, you need to understand and assess the business impact of the problem

you are reporting. Use the following criteria:

Severity 1 Critical business impact: You are unable to use the program,

resulting in a critical impact on operations. This condition

requires an immediate solution.

Severity 2 Significant business impact: The program is usable but is

severely limited.

Severity 3 Some business impact: The program is usable with less

significant features (not critical to operations) unavailable.

Severity 4 Minimal business impact: The problem causes little impact on

operations, or a reasonable circumvention to the problem has

been implemented.

62 IBM Tivoli Identity Manager: Oracle ERP Adapter Installation and Configuration Guide

Describe your problem and gather background information

When explaining a problem to IBM, be as specific as possible. Include all relevant

background information so that IBM Software Support specialists can help you

solve the problem efficiently. To save time, know the answers to these questions:

v What software versions were you running when the problem occurred?

v Do you have logs, traces, and messages that are related to the problem

symptoms? IBM Software Support is likely to ask for this information.

v Can the problem be re-created? If so, what steps led to the failure?

v Have any changes been made to the system? (For example, hardware, operating

system, networking software, and so on.)

v Are you currently using a workaround for this problem? If so, please be

prepared to explain it when you report the problem.

Submit your problem to IBM Software Support

You can submit your problem in one of two ways:

v Online: Go to the ″Submit and track problems″ page on the IBM Software

Support site (http://www.ibm.com/software/support/probsub.html). Enter

your information into the appropriate problem submission tool.

v By phone: For the phone number to call in your country, go to the contacts page

of the IBM Software Support Handbook on the Web (http://techsupport.services.ibm.com/guides/contacts.html) and click the name of your

geographic region.

If the problem you submit is for a software defect or for missing or inaccurate

documentation, IBM Software Support creates an Authorized Program Analysis

Report (APAR). The APAR describes the problem in detail. Whenever possible,

IBM Software Support provides a workaround for you to implement until the

APAR is resolved and a fix is delivered. IBM publishes resolved APARs on the

IBM product support Web pages daily, so that other users who experience the

same problem can benefit from the same resolutions.

For more information about problem resolution, see Searching knowledge bases.
