Automated Refresh of Oracle Data

What is a Refresh, Anyways? Data Sync Tune Up Code Deploy 2

New Instance Management “NIM” Key Challenges • Each project demands their own instance for Dev & Test • Resource constrained for Refresh and Post-Refresh smoke testing • Number of initiatives and instances have more than doubled, but number of resources (Dev, QA, PPM, DBA, Ops, Deploy) have not Key Drivers • Avoid mistakes made with manual processes • Reduce Build & Refresh times • Restore sanity, responsiveness to business needs and work- life balance 3

Cloning Oracle Access Manager & OID Solution Overview Identity Access 1. Clone the Database Instance WebPass Console Manager 2. Clone the OID instance Identity Access 3. Reconfigure cloned OID 4. Rename the existing Prod IdM OID container in OID 5. Clone/Provision (or install) OAM components against cloned OID 6. Copy config from the old namespace to the new namespace 7. Update all OAM References LT UAT QAI MacBook Pro Monster © 2010 Mac Mcrae http://macmcrae.com 4

Refresh Solution Overview • Done using shell / Perl script (LDAP) • Takes backup of configuration Backup • Purge all caches, sync record and workflow tickets • With SRDF and Time Finder • Refreshes User data in target system from source Refresh • Copy root suffix of source system to target system • Done using shell / Perl script • Restores backup to target system Restore 5

Step 1 & 3: Backup and Restore App Layer Configurations 1. Shell Command initiated to backup app configuration from Source OID 1 2. PPM gets response back for 2 Source LDAP job completion PPM Unix Console Shell 3. Shell Command initiated to 3 purge all app data (Optional: or 4 optimize for later retrieval) 5 Target LDAP 4. Shell command initiated to restore app configuration to Source OID. 5. PPM gets response back for job completion 6

Step 2 – Block Level Replication of Oracle Data RM Server Primary Symmetrix Target Symmetrix Source System Target System  User data loaded from target to source system using SRDF  15x faster than Bulkdelete and Bulkload (OID tools) 7
