OIM 12c: Enhanced Schedule Jobs

There were two major drawbacks with the schedule jobs in older versions of OIM:

• Monitoring the failed schedule jobs (Custom report or code was required)
• Parameters which were passed during some schedule job execution

Oracle has provide solutions for both the problems listed above. Now we can see the parameters which were passed during the job execution and it also sends email notification to a particular user, distribution list or role.

No custom code or report is required to monitor failed jobs.

Just loving this feature.

OIM 12C - Design Console and New Application On-boarding Process

In OIM 11g R2 PS3, we were getting an alert saying "Design Console" will be removed from next 
 release. Here's the new and updated alert from OIM 12c:

OIM 12c Design Console Alert

Oracle has migrated so many components to OIM User Interface including the "Application On-boarding" which is a very big change. Here are some screens from On-boarding application UI:

Kudos to Oracle Development team to move this feature to UI, this will make on-boarding process easy & cost effective.

OIM 12C Import Export Blank Screen After Installation

While installing OIM 12c (12.2.1.3.0), I didn't use the standard port 14000 and didn't provide any value for OIM Front End URL. I didn't face any issue during installation and saw the success message at the end.

The moment I hit the Import or Export menu items, I saw a 'BLANK SCREEN'. In the logs, I was surprised to see that it was trying to connect to 14000. 

In enterprise manager, I was able to see 14000 as the port for Front End URLs. I changed 14000 to the correct OIM port that helped in loading the Import and Export forms properly.

Oracle Identity Governance (OIM) 12c

As you know, Oracle has released Oracle Identity Governance 12c (OIM 12.2.1.3.0) last week, Oracle has made significant changes in the installation process. Now we have a quick installer which doesn't take much time to install OIM 12c which was a big pain earlier.

This quick installer contains all the components which are required for OIM: FMW Binaries, RCU, SOA, Weblogic. Now you no need to download and install these products separately. 

There's also another method on installation "OIM Standalone Installation", I didn't try that one. 

OIM 12c User Interface looks similar to OIM 11g R2 PS3 User Interface. 

They have invested time and money to make Deployment Manager experience better. Personally I was OK with the existing one as well. Here're the screen shot of Import and Export screens:
