Validating OID Instances and Setting Environment Variables

A Validating OID Instances and Setting Environment Variables

As part of the pre-upgrade assessment process, you have to ensure that the OID instances are running and set the necessary environment variables.

This part contains the following topics:

Validating that the OID1 Instances are Running

You can validate the running OID1 instance on the first Oracle Internet Directory server in each environment by running the following command:

ps -ef | grep oidldapd | grep -v grep | wc -l

If the command results in 0 (zero), it means that the instance is not running.

Setting Environment Variables for Oracle Internet Directory Tools

This section describes the additional variables that need to be set on both the source and target Oracle Internet Directory instance hosts in the target environment:

PATH= $PATH:$ORACLE_HOME/bin:$ORACLE_HOME/ldap/bin:$ORACLE_INSTANCE/bin
INSTANCE_NAME=oid1
COMPONENT_NAME=oid1

Examples of Locations

ORACLE_HOME: The location of the base of the Oracle Internet Directory installation.

For example:

/u01/oracle/products/dir

ORACLE_INSTANCE: The location of the base of each Oracle Internet Directory instance configuration.

For example:

/u02/private/oracle/config/domains/IAMDirectoryDomain/config/fmwconfig/components/OID

TNS_ADMIN: The location within the ORACLE_INSTANCE where the database connection file, tnsnames.ora, is located.

For example:

ORACLE_INSTANCE/config

JAVA_HOME: The location of the base Java installation.

For example:

/u01/oracle/products/jdk

ASERVER_HOME: The base location of the Administration FMW domain.

For example:

/u01/oracle/config/domains/IAMDirectoryDomain

MSERVER_HOME: The location of the Oracle Internet Directory instance domain.

For example:
