Hi All,

I need migrate my users and security groups from 11g to 12c.

Please let me know what steps I need to follow?

I have done a migration of 11g export .jar file but didn't see any users and groups after login to 12c console.

Thanks and regards,

Debasis

    Hi,

    First you clearly need to identify where the users/groups you want to migrate come from.

    Are you talking about users/groups of the embedded LDAP inside Weblogic? (so the users you create in Weblogic Console?)

    These ones must be migrated by hand, there are scripts (wlst) able to export and import if you look for it.

    If you means users/groups coming from an external provider you must setup the provider by hand in 12c as it's not part of the migration.

    The migration JAR only move the applications roles and their memberships (so who is linked to which application role).

    Can you please provide me some sample scripts and the process to execute those scripts if users and groups are part of embedded LDAP inside weblogic?

    Thanks for your quick response.

    Regards,

    The official documentation is quite good in general: B.9 Migrating 11g WebLogic Users to 12c

    And never forget that Google is your friend ...

    The idea of the OTN community forum isn't to have somebody doing your work, but more to give you directions to explore...

    Yes I did a lot of search around different contents in oracle documentation. But nowhere it is clear how to migrate existing 11g users to 12c and the groups. Especially the embedded LDAP users.

    In case there will be 300-400 users then it will be a pain to create individually all in 12c. I was expecting it's already tried out. Unfortunately there isn't much in google.

    Did you read the posted link?

    It's 7 + 6 steps, sounds like doable ... So did you try it? If yes: what is the issue? If no: what is the issue?

    +1 to Gianni. Did you do what's written in the documentation? What was the issue?

    If you haven't done anything. Do it now. Then report back with valid and pertinent information.

    Yes this is indeed useful information. So I marked the correct answer.
