Get the update trigger fields

To get the update field trigger information from the database. Use the below SQL.

select * from lkv where lku_key = (select lku_key from lku where lku_type_string_key = 'Lookup.USR_PROCESS_TRIGGERS' and lku_type = 'l');

This will give you all the triggers on the USR table of OIM. The LKV decoded is the task name you should create under a process. (The tasks info is stored in MIL table)

Similarly for organization, use Lookup.ACT_PROCESS_TRIGGERS.

Get OIM table field key

In the OIM API code, we need to use the field key rather than the actual database table field name. (example : "Users.First Name" or "Organizations.Created By")

All these are stored in the LKU table of OIM. Execute the below SQL to extract the complete list.

SELECT LKU_FIELD, LKU_TYPE_STRING_KEY FROM LKU WHERE LKU_TYPE='f' ORDER BY LKU_FIELD;

The part before the underscore in the LKU_FIELD indicates the table name.

Linux : Establish connection through a proxy

To establish a trusted connection to a firewall protected server through a proxy machine, use the below command.

ssh -C -L 1521:192.16.98.45:1521 dev@proxy-machine

In this example, we are connecting to a oracle server at 192.16.98.45 running on port 1521 through a proxy machine "proxy-machine". "dev" is the username on the proxy machine.
It will ask for a password of the proxy machine and once provided, you will be able to connect.

This way, your machine need not be allowed on the firewall on the oracle server. But you will still be able to connect through another machine which is allowed on the firewall. (The proxy can be your friends machine as well)

Set Provisioned Resource Description

To set the description of the provisioned resource, you can follow the below steps.

Say for example, we need to set the userkey as the description of the provisioned resource.

1. Go to Process Definition.
2. Search for the process which you want the change on.
   
3. Click Map Descriptive Field
4. Click on User Key
5. Save

After the above change, you will see that after the user is provisioned to the resource, the user key will appear in the description column. See example below.

Similarly, you can select any other value to be set in the description field. Some would prefer user Id rather. Or may be even some user defined description field.

OIM installation or replication made easy

Have you installed OIM? If yes, then you would know how time consuming it can be.

But thanks to how the OIM works, we need not install OIM from scratch on every environment. We can simply copy it from an existing environment.

Below are the steps to be followed in brief.

1. Copy the entire OIM_HOME/xellerate folder (ie., xellerate folder which contains all OIM files) from the existing environment to the new environment. Preferably, keep the location path same as the original one.
2. Copy the entire OIM schema from the original to the new OIM database.
3. Edit OIM_HOME/xellerate/config/xlconfig.xml and change the following values under the DirectDB element.
   
   • Change the <url> value to the correct one.
   • Change the <username> value to the correct one.
   • If the password for the schema of the new environment is different from the original one, then set the encrypted value for to "false" and then set the password in clear text.
   • Search for localhost (it will be under the tag <Discovery>) and make sure the port number is correct.
4. Save the xlconfig.xml and exit it.
5. Go to the application server data source and make sure the database url is correct.
6. If the schema username is different from the original environment, then run the following sql script.
   update sdk set sdk_schema = 'OIMADMIN'
   commit;
   (OIMADMIN is the username of the new schema which is also configured in the xlconfig.xml at step 3.)
7. Start OIM.
   

You are ready with a new OIM environment now. Go ahead and start using it.
