How to reset oracle oim 11g admin password

The magic file is oimadminpasswd_wls.sh , if we search for it we'll find the path where the file is and we move there to edit the property file oimadminpasswd-wls.properties.

Now we are going to fill every field (except LDAP ones if we don't use SSL, consequently we also set OIM_OAM_INTG_ENABLED=false.)

A good trick to find values is to do a find on the suggestion:

e.g.  OIM_ORACLE_HOME=  -> find . -name Oracle_IDM1

and to find out DBURL value we can look for tnsnames.ora, this file has the hostname, port and service name...

ORCL =
  (DESCRIPTION =
    (ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = localhost)(PORT = 1521))
    (CONNECT_DATA =
      (SERVER = DEDICATED)
      (SERVICE_NAME = orcl)
    )
  )


...to insert in the following string:

DBURL=jdbc:oracle:thin:@localhost:1521:orcl

when every variable has its own value we can launch the command to reset admin pwd:

sh oimadminpasswd_wls.sh oimadminpasswd_wls.properties



---------------------

Enter OIM DB Schema Password :
Enter OIM Adminstrator xelsysadm new Password:
Re-enter OIM Adminstrator xelsysadm new Password:
[...]
