OVD 11.1.1.7.0 Add Instance

In this post, I will cover the steps required to add an instance of OVD to an existing OVD installation home.

This kind of configuration is specially helpful in scenario where you want to add instances for load balancing or to create an instance for testing etc.

My existing OVD setup was 11.1.1.7.0.

ORACLE_HOME=C:\Oracle\Middleware\Oracle_IDM2
ORACLE_INSTANCE=C:\Oracle\Middleware\asinst_2

set of existing running processes

                                                                                                                                              

we will have to use the opmnctl command inside ORACLE_INSTANCE. Also weblogic admin server must be running prior to adding an instance as the command connects to weblogic server to register the component.

opmnctl.bat createcomponent  -componentName ovd2 -componentType OVD -admin cn=orcladmin -isAdminSSL true -ovdAdminPort 8900   -namespace dc=mydomain,dc=com -ldapPort 6502 -ldapSport 7502

Command requires login to weblogic admin server (Deepak-PC.mydomain.com):

  Username: weblogic

  Password:

Creating empty component directories...Done

Provisioning OVD files for ovd2

  OVD creation in progress

Also while starting the processes i found out that my computer has changed the timezone.
