Welcome to the IBM Security Verify Governance Adapter for Oracle Database.
These Release Notes contain information for the following products that was not available when the IBM Security Verify Governance Adapter manuals were printed:
· IBM Security Verify Governance Adapter for Oracle Database Installation and Configuration Guide
The Oracle Database Adapter is designed to create and manage accounts on an Oracle Database. The adapter runs in "agentless" mode and communicates using JDBC to the systems being managed.
The IBM Security Verify Governance adapters are powerful tools that require Administrator Level authority. Adapters operate much like a human system administrator, creating accounts, permissions and home directories. Operations requested from the IBM Security Verify Governance and/or IBM Security Verify Governance Identity Manager will fail if the Adapter is not given sufficient authority to perform the requested task. IBM recommends that this Adapter run with administrative (root) permissions.
Note: Service group name change is not supported.
The Oracle Database Adapter does not support management of service groups.
Review and agree to the terms of the IBM Security Verify Governance Adapter license prior to using this product. The license can be viewed from the "license" folder included in the product package.

Stored procedures not installed/updated correctly by adapter From this version of adapter, New store procedure will get installed and old stored procedures will get uninstalled from the database.
Note: - The adapter appends the adapter version to the name of the procedure when installing. While uninstalling the adapter will first check whether the isim versions of the new and old stored procedures are same and then will uninstall only those stored procedures whose version is lower than the version currently being installed. Once you have installed store procedures on resource, you can remove store procedure of that version from timsol folder. |

Known Limitations

Internal# |
APAR# |
PMR# / Description |
|
N/A |
N/A |
Converting between Default and Non-default Roles It is a two-step process to make a role as a non-default role. 1. Assign a role to a user by the "GRANT" statement. 2. Assign the role as non-default by "ALTER USER". If the "ALTER USER" command fails, then that role will become the default role on the resource. However it will not reflect on the IBM Security Identity Manager side in any of the role lists. You are required to submit the recon operation, so it will appear in the default list or you can submit the request again. |
|
Error on SendOnly Attributes If the Oracle adapter fails to set the send-only attribute "erOraExpirePwd" on the Oracle database resource for an ADD Operation, then the Oracle Database Adapter will return this attribute in the failed attribute list and the IBM Security Identity Manager will generate an "Object Class Violation" error. This is an IBM Security Identity Manager server defect and will be addressed in the next server fix pack. |
||
|
|
|
Restoring Local Authenticated Accounts Restoring an account for local authentication is a two-step process. 1. Change the password for the user. 2. Restore the account on the resource. If the step 1 executes successfully and step 2 fails then the password is changed on the resource without the account being restored. Workaround: the user remains suspended and the account can be restored with a new password. |

In IGI, eroraglobalname target attribute is not being deleted properly. |

Chapter 3: Installing
Installing in the Verify Governance Virtual Appliance
( Please add this new section at knowledge centre (under Installing > Installing in the Verify Governance Virtual Appliance) for Azure AD Adapter to describe installation procedure of adapter in Verify Governance Virtual Appliance: https://www.ibm.com/docs/en/svgaa?topic=ldap-installing-in-virtual-appliance. Please add this below note as well after adding the description.)
Note: While uploading the Adapter package, you may receive System Error: A file included in the SDI Adapter zip already exists on the system and the Server Message log under Appliance tab of VA will have a reference to error com.ibm.identity.sdi.SDIManagementService E File ibm.com_IBM_Security_Verify_Governance_xxxx.swidtag found in the adapter zip at location ILMT-Tags/ already exists in system. This is because, you can install the same swidtags only once. So, if another adapter of the same type is installed, remove the swidtags.
The ibm.com_IBM_Security_Verify_Governance_Enterprise-xxxx.swidtag file is common to all adapters. In addition to the common swidtag file, an application adapter needs ibm.com_IBM_Security_Verify_Governance_Application_Adapters-xxxx.swidtag file and an infra adapter needs ibm.com_IBM_Security_Verify_Governance_Lifecycle-xxxx.swidtag and ibm.com_IBM_Security_Verify_Governance_Compliance-xxxx.swidtag files. So, if an application adapter is already installed and this is an infra adapter, then only install the infra-specific swidtags and the other way around. Please visit IBM Security Verify Governance Adapters v10.x link to identify the adapter type of the installed adapters.
