2.3 Prerequisites for the Identity Governance Databases

Review the following considerations before installing Identity Governance:

  • For best performance, do not install Identity Governance on the database server, however, the database server and the Identity Governance server must run in the same subnetwork. Also, ensure that the database is running the supported versions of Java and Tomcat.

  • You can install the version of PostgreSQL that Identity Governance requires in an environment that runs an older version of the database program. To ensure that the new installation does not overwrite the previous version, specify a different directory for the files.

  • (Conditional) To use an Oracle database with Identity Governance, you must install the database with the Identity Governance admin user for the database before installing Identity Governance. For more information, see Section 6.0, Completing the Installation Process.

  • (Conditional) To install the databases in a clustered environment, see Section 1.7.5, Ensuring High Availability for Identity Governance.
