Managing System Properties in Oracle Identity Manager

One of the main component for Oracle Identity Manager is the System properties which define the characteristics that control the behavior of Oracle Identity Manager. You can configure parameters like email pattern, login attempts, authentication questions, etc. Here is the Default System Properties in Oracle Identity Manager.

Also,Oracle Identity Manager provides a set of system properties that are not present in the PTY table by default. For example, if you want to configure the number of times Oracle Identity Manager retries to get a connection when the JDBC connection fails, then you can configure the JDBC Connection Retry Attempts system property. Here is the Nondefault System Properties

Whenever you make any change to a system property by using any method other than from the Advanced Administration, you must run purge cache to get the changes reflected in Oracle Identity Manager.

To purge a cache you need to:

1. Run the DOMAIN_HOME/bin/setDomainEnv.sh script.
2. Go to the OIM_HOME/server/bin/
3. Run PurgeCache.bat CATEGORY_NAME
? CATEGORY_NAME name argument represents the Oracle Identity Manager category name that is to be purged

To purge all the categories, pass a value of “All” to the PurgeCache utility.
