EM 24ai: How to Configure or Rollback Enterprise Manager Cloud Control Authentication with External LDAP Provider using EMCTL Command (Doc ID 3073200.1)

Last updated on MARCH 02, 2025

Applies to:

Enterprise Manager Base Platform - Version 24.1.0.0.0 and later
Information in this document applies to any platform.

Purpose

Oracle Enterprise Manager relies on the WebLogic Server (WLS) for external authentication methods. For this reason, Enterprise Manager (EM) 24ai can be authenticated using any authentication method supported by underlying Oracle WebLogic Server 12.2.1.4 version.

This document provide steps to Configure OEM with Active Directory or OID using emctl command.
The "emctl" command is available to configure Cloud Control with only Active Directory (AD) and OID providers without any customization. Use the manual method for all other scenarios.


Running the 'emctl config auth ad' or 'emctl config auth oid' command on the OMS creates a WebLogic authentication provider of type Microsoft Active Directory/OID that uses the configuration parameter values specified by the command. Any configuration values not specified retain the default values. Tuning and modification of advanced AD configuration parameters is carried out through the WebLogic Server Administration Console and not the 'emctl config auth ad' command.
