Provisioning enables you to ensure that an application is notified of directory changes, such as changes to user or group information. Such changes can affect whether the application allows a user access to its processes and resources.
When you install an application that you want to provision, you must create a provisioning integration profile for it by using the Provisioning Registration Tool (oidprovtool
). Use this tool to:
Create a new provisioning profile. A new provisioning profile is created and set to the enabled state so that Oracle Directory Integration and Provisioning can process it.
Disable an existing provisioning profile.
Enable a disabled provisioning profile.
Modify an existing provisioning profile.
Delete an existing provisioning profile.
Get the current status of a given provisioning profile.
Clear all of the errors in an existing provisioning profile.
The Provisioning Registration Tool shields the location and schema details of the provisioning profile entries from the callers of the tool. From the callers' perspective, the combination of an application and a realm uniquely identify a provisioning profile. The constraint in the system is that there can be only one provisioning profile for each application for each realm.
Once a profile is created, its mode—that is, INBOUND, OUTBOUND, or BOTH—cannot be changed by using the modify
operation. To change the mode, you must delete, then re-create, the profile.
The Oracle directory integration and provisioning server automatically monitors provisioning profile configuration changes in Oracle Internet Directory, including the creation, modification, and deletion of provisioning profiles. For this reason, you do not need to manually enable or disable a provisioning profile.

.
organization_dn=DN
Optional. If not provided, defaults to the default identity management realm. The distinguished name of the organization to which the provisioning subscription belongs, for example "dc=company,dc=com
". The combination of the application DN and organization DN uniquely identifies a provisioning profile.
application_isdasvisible=TRUE | FALSE
Optional. Determines whether the application is visible as a provisioning-integrated application in the Oracle Internet Directory Provisioning Console. The default value is TRUE.
manage_application_default=TRUE | FALSE
Optional. Determines whether the Oracle Internet Directory Provisioning Console manages the application's default values. The default value is TRUE.
enable_bootstrap=TRUE | FALSE
Optional. Indicates whether the application should receive provisioning events for users that existed in Oracle Internet Directory before creating the application's provisioning integration profile. The default value is FALSE.
user_data_location=DN
Optional. Identifies the DN of the container in which to store application-specific user information.
default_provisioning_policy=PROVISIONING_REQUIRED | PROVISIONING_NOT_REQUIRED
Optional. Specifies the application's default provisioning policy. The default value is PROVISIONING_REQUIRED.
interface_name=SCHEMA.PACKAGE
Required for create
or modify
operations. The database schema name for the PLSQL package. The format of the value is schema.package_name
, for example here is the schema and PLSQL package information for Portal:
interface_name=PORTAL.WWSEC_OID_SYNC
interface_version=1.1 | 2.0 | 3.0
The version of the interface protocol. Allowed values are 1.1, 2.0, or 3.0. The default value is 2.0.
interface_type=PLSQL | JAVA
Optional. The type of interface to which events will be propagated. The default is PLSQL.
interface_connect_info=connection_string
Required for create
or modify
operations. To connect to an Oracle database and propagate events, use one of the following formats for the connection string:
DBURL=ldap://ldaphost:ldapport/service:username:password (recommended)
host:port:sid:username:password
DBSVC=service:username:password
schedule=number_seconds
Optional for create
and modify
operations only. The number of seconds between executions of this profile. The default is 3600, which means the profile is scheduled to be executed every hour.
lastchangenumber=number
Optional for create
and modify
operations on OUTBOUND
events only. The last change number in Oracle Internet Directory after which all qualifying events should be provisioned to the application. Defaults to the latest current change number.
max_prov_failure_limit=number
Optional. Determines the number of times the Oracle Provisioning System attempts to provision a user. The default is 1.
max_events_per_schedule=number
Optional for create
and modify
operations only. The maximum number of events that the Oracle directory integration and provisioning server sends to an application during one execution of a provisioning profile. The default is 100.
max_events_per_invocation=number
Optional for create
and modify
operations only. The maximum number of events that can be packaged and sent to a target in one invocation of the interface.
event_mapping_rules="OBJECT_TYPE:FILTER:DOMAIN"
Required for create
and modify
operations on INBOUND
events only. This rule maps the object type received from the application (using an optional filter condition) to a domain in Oracle Internet Directory A provisioning profile can have multiple mapping rules defined.
The following example shows two mapping rules. The first rule shows that an employee object (EMP
) whose locality attribute equals America (l=AMERICA
) should be mapped to the domain l=AMER,cn=users,dc=company,dc=com
. The second rule shows that an employee object (EMP
) should be mapped to the domain cn=users,dc=company,dc=com
(no filter conditions).
event_mapping_rules="EMP:l=AMERICA:l=AMER,cn=users,dc=company,dc=com" event_mapping_rules="EMP::cn=users,dc=company,dc=com"
event_permitted_operations="OBJECT:DOMAIN:OPERATION(attributes,...)
Required for create
and modify
operations on INBOUND
events only. This property is used to define the types of events that the application is allowed to send to the Oracle Directory Integration and Provisioning service. A provisioning profile can have multiple permitted operations defined.
For example, if you wanted to permit the application to send events whenever a user object was added or deleted, or when certain attributes were modified, you would have three permitted operations such as this:
event_permitted_operations="USER:dc=mycompany,dc=com:ADD(*)" event_permitted_operations="USER:dc=mycompany,dc=com:MODIFY(cn,sn,mail,password)" event_permitted_operations="USER:dc=mycompany,dc=com:DELETE(*)"
event_subscription="USER | GROUP:DOMAIN:OPERATION(attributes,...)"
Required for create
and modify
operations on OUTBOUND
events only. This property is used to define the types of events that the Oracle Directory Integration and Provisioning service should send to the application. A provisioning profile can have multiple event subscriptions defined.
For example, if you wanted the directory integration server to send events to the application whenever a user or group object was added or deleted, you would have four event subscriptions such as this:
event_subscription="GROUP:dc=mycompany,dc=com:ADD(*)" event_subscription="GROUP:dc=mycompany,dc=com:DELETE(*)" event_subscription="USER:dc=mycompany,dc=com:ADD(*)" event_subscription="USER:dc=mycompany,dc=com:DELETE(*)"
max_events_per_schedule=number
Optional for create
and modify
operations only. The maximum number of events to be provisioned in one schedule. The default is 100.
max_retries=number
Optional for create
and modify
operations only. The number of times a failed event should be retried. The default is 5.
profile_group=number
Required for create
and modify
operations only. The group number of the profile. Default is "DEFAULT". This is required to address scalability issues when different Oracle Directory Integration and Provisioning server instances will be used to execute different selected groups.
profile_status=ENABLED | DISABLED
Required for the create operation only. Determines whether the profile is enabled or disabled. The default is ENABLED.
profile_debug=debug_level
Required. The debug level for the profile.
Using the Provisioning Registration Tool (oidprovtool
) you can perform the following tasks:
The following example creates a new provisioning profile that makes Portal aware of updates to the user and group information that is maintained in Oracle Internet Directory.
Example:
oidprovtool operation=create ldap_host=myhost.mycompany.com ldap_port=389 \ ldap_user_dn="cn=orcladmin" ldap_user_password=welcome1 application_dn="orclApplicationCommonName=PORTAL,cn=Portal,cn=Products,cn=OracleContext" \ organization_dn="dc=us,dc=mycompany,dc=com" interface_name=PORTAL.WWSEC_OID_SYNC \ interface_type=PLSQL interface_connect_info=myhost:1521:iasdb:PORTAL:password \ schedule=360 event_subscription="USER:dc=us,dc=mycompany,dc=com:DELETE" \ event_subscription="GROUP:dc=us,dc=mycompany,dc=com:DELETE" \ event_subscription="USER:dc=us,dc=mycompany,dc=com:MODIFY(orclDefaultProfileGroup,userpassword)" \ event_subscription="GROUP:dc=us,dc=mycompany,dc=com:MODIFY(uniqueMember)" \ profile_mode=OUTBOUND
The following example modifies an existing provisioning profile for the Portal application. It changes the event subscription for the attributes that are provisioned when a user entry is modified.
Example:
oidprovtool operation=modify ldap_host=myhost.mycompany.com ldap_port=389 \ ldap_user_dn="cn=orcladmin" ldap_user_password=welcome1 application_dn="orclApplicationCommonName=PORTAL,cn=Portal,cn=Products,cn=OracleContext" \ organization_dn="dc=us,dc=mycompany,dc=com" \ subscription="USER:dc=us,dc=mycompany,dc=com:MODIFY(orclDefaultProfileGroup,userpassword,mail,cn,sn)"
The following example disables a provisioning profile for the Portal application.
Example:
oidprovtool operation=delete ldap_host=myhost.mycompany.com ldap_port=389 \ ldap_user_dn="cn=orcladmin" ldap_user_password=welcome1 application_dn="orclApplicationCommonName=PORTAL,cn=Portal,cn=Products,cn=OracleContext" \ organization_dn="dc=us,dc=mycompany,dc=com"
The following example disables a provisioning profile for the Portal application.
Example:
oidprovtool operation=disable ldap_host=myhost.mycompany.com ldap_port=389 \ ldap_user_dn="cn=orcladmin" ldap_user_password=welcome1 application_dn="orclApplicationCommonName=PORTAL,cn=Portal,cn=Products,cn=OracleContext" \ organization_dn="dc=us,dc=mycompany,dc=com"
