Introduction In “Part 1: How To Load Test OAM11g using Apache JMeter” I talked about an example plan that could be used to load test OAM11g, which included some common configuration elements, some samplers for login, authorization, logout, and some listeners that provided result analysis. In Part 2, I wanted to expand on an option to make JMeter send random logins and I will explain why, and then cover how to leverage JMeter to load test an LDAP server like OUD, OID, ODSE,...

Introduction In a previous post, we discussed some of the complications that can occur when a firewall is placed between WebGates and OAM Servers in a typical deployment. This post follows on from that discussion, to explore an analogous topic- firewalls between the OAM Server and the LDAP Identity Store. This post is part of a larger series on Oracle Access Manager 11g called Oracle Access Manager Academy. An index to the entire series with links to each of the separate...

Introduction It is common to receive permission errors in the capture/extract process of Oracle GoldenGate (OGG) running on Microsoft Windows servers with Oracle Database. The capture process reads the Oracle redo and archive logs to find the committed transactions. When an Oracle Database is installed on Windows servers, the redo logs and the archive log directory are created in protected mode, and a standard user will not have permission to read them. To circumvent this...
