  • 1.  IVG 11 in Oracle Linux

    Posted 10 days ago

    Hi all,

    I have a client that has their servers in Oracle Cloud. They are looking to implement ISVG in their environment. I see that ISVG 11 comes in three modules.
    One of them is the IVIG Software Stack which is the ISIM or ISVG Identity Manager that we know and the other is the IVIG Container which is the ISVG Compliance although now there is also an option called IVIG Role Optimizer.
    I am interested in the IVIG Software Stack, the problem is that it is only compatible with RHEL. One option that I was considering is to install the containerized version of ISVG IM but I see that it is not included in this version 11 and I also see that DB2 does not support Oracle Linux.
    I wanted to know if you have experience with this, since Oracle Linux is based on RHEL, if anyone has already installed it on Oracle Linux.

    Let me clarify a couple of things...

    IVIG 11 is the first version of consolidated IGA - basically that ISVG IM + the first release of some of the Governance functionality that was previously only available in IGI (ARC risk module, Recertification Campaigns and Role Composition as the most interesting ones)

    That means that it is the next version of ISVG IM and ISIM. It is currently available as SW and Containers. The biggest change is the move to WAS Liberty from WAS classic - but the SW and Container versions are basically the same system - VA will come later this year....

    This means that IVIG 11 container version includes what was previously known as ISIM/ISVG IM and you can upgrade from these to IVIG 11.

    HTH

    Hi, If your customer plan on installing the Software Version on Oracle Linux, it is not supported. Oracle Linux is based on Red Hat linux, but is not officially listed as a supported OS. Here is the link to
    Verify Identity Governance supported configuration. Hence Container Version is the next choice. All Kubernetes version are are supported. As long you can install Kubernetes flavors such asa Red Hat Open Shift, Kubernetes for Oracle (container Services), as well as Helm on Oracle Linux, you should be good. MicroK8s is another flavor (considered to be Enterprise Grade) of Kubernetes that we have used to install IVIG Container version on RedHat, Ubuntu (not listed) or CentOS (not listed).
