About Oracle Internet Directory Passwords

Note that these procedures apply only to the LDAP virtual server configured on your
load balancer. They do not apply to the HTTP virtual server configured on your load
balancer.

9.2.4.1 Load Balancer Supports LDAP Service Monitoring

If your load balancer supports LDAP service monitoring, then you can add all the
nodes to the LDAP virtual server before starting the installation.
For example, if you have three nodes:
Configure the LDAP virtual server to direct requests to node 1 only.
1.
Add node 2 to the LDAP virtual server.
2.
Add node 3 to the LDAP virtual server.
3.
Install Oracle Identity Management components on node 1.
4.
Install Oracle Identity Management components on node 2.
5.
Install Oracle Identity Management components on node 3.
6.

9.2.4.2 Load Balancer Does Not Support LDAP Service Monitoring

If your load balancer does not support LDAP service monitoring, then configure your
LDAP virtual server to direct requests to node 1 only before starting the installation.
After you complete an installation on a node, then you can add that node to the virtual
server.
For example, if you have three nodes:
Configure the LDAP virtual server to direct requests to node 1 only.
1.
Install Oracle Identity Management components on node 1.
2.
Install Oracle Identity Management components on node 2.
3.
Add node 2 to the LDAP virtual server.
4.
Install Oracle Identity Management components on node 3.
5.
Add node 3 to the LDAP virtual server.

9.3 About Oracle Internet Directory Passwords
In OracleAS Cluster (Identity Management) configurations, you install Oracle Internet
Directory on multiple nodes, and in each installation, you enter the instance password
in the "Specify Instance Name and ias_admin Password" screen.
The password specified in the first installation is used as the password for the
cn=orcladmin and orcladmin users not just in the first Oracle Internet Directory,
but in all Oracle Internet Directory installations in the cluster.
This means that to access the Oracle Internet Directory on any node, you have to use
the password that you entered in the first installation. You cannot use the passwords
that you entered in subsequent installations.
Accessing the Oracle Internet Directory includes:
