Playing with System Configurations

Sometimes you need to modify the system attributes to make OIM behave according to your organizational needs. So, here I show you how to tweak these values. I am going to show you two simple changes and you can play more with it yourself.

1. Here, I am going to change login page to not display "User Registration".











2. Next, I am showing you how to display more custom questions than out of the box. You can obviously do more things from system configuration, like how many correct questions a user has to reply before resetting their credentials.







Additionally:

If you want to change the OIM text or web settings, such as number of results to be displayed during search (like 10 are by default and you can increase them to whatever number you like) or modifying logo etc - you need to modify the xlWebApp. Look into http://rajnishbhatia19.blogspot.com/2008/03/changing-oracle-logo-in-oim.html blog for details. Generally, you may change xlWebAdmin.properties file to incorporated such changes. Look for "global.displayrecordNum.value" and change it from 10 to 20 (or whatever you wish). You may change other text like Previous Next etc also from this file.
