After upgrading the Oracle Access Manager from 11.1.2.3 to 12.2.1.3, I extended the WebLogic Domain with User Messaging Services to be able to use the Forget Password feature.
The Oracle Support note ID 2302623.1 gives a good example how to do.
Oracle Access Manager 12cps3 (OAM 12.2.1.3.0) Sample Application Demonstrates Forgot Password Flow Using Multi Factor Authentication REST APIs ( Doc ID 2302623.1 ).

But the OAM AdaptiveAuthenticatorPlugin was missing the UmsClientUrl property
and without this one, no way to send mails or SMS with the security token to the user requesting the reset of his password.

I decided to modify the oam-config.xml file with the missing property.
During the modification, I modfied the Version of the oam-config.xml to inform OAM about the configuration change.
What was my surprise when I saw that my modifications were reseted after the Administration Server was started new.

This has changed starting from OAM 12.2.1.3. Now the oam-config is stored in the Metadata Database and needs to be exported,
modified and re-imported back to the database. The steps are described in the documentation (here).

I had then to follow then those steps as shown below:
First set the JAVA_HOME and PATH to point to the right Java Version.
$ export JAVA_HOME=/u00/app/oracle/product/Java/jdk
$ export PATH=$JAVA_HOME/bin:$PATH

The export requires a properties file defining te connection to the OAM repository$ more dbschema.properties
oam.entityStore.ConnectString=jdbc:oracle:thin:@vm02:1522/IDM
oam.entityStore.schemaUser=IAM_OAM
oam.entityStore.schemaPassword=Welcome1
oam.importExportDirPath=/home/oracle/OAM_CONFIG
oam.frontending=params=vm03;14100;http
[oracle@vm03 OAM_CONFIG]$
Export the oam-config.xml file$ java -cp /u01/app/fmw_oim_12213/idm/oam/server/tools/config-utility/config-utility.jar:/u01/app/fmw_oim_12213/oracle_common/modules/oracle.jdbc/ojdbc8.jar oracle.security.am.migrate.main.ConfigCommand /u02/app/config/domains/idm_domain/ export dbschema.properties

INFO: executable operation: export
oam.exportDirPath=/home/oracle/OAM_CONFIG
oam.exportedFile=oam-config.xml
oam.operation.time=2654
This exports the oam-config.xml file in the local directory. Modify this file and import it back to the DB.$ java -cp /u01/app/fmw_oim_12213/idm/oam/server/tools/config-utility/config-utility.jar:/u01/app/fmw_oim_12213/oracle_common/modules/oracle.jdbc/ojdbc8.jar oracle.security.am.migrate.main.ConfigCommand /u02/app/config/domains/idm_domain/ import dbschema.properties

oam.importedFile=oam-config.xml

During the import, the version is incremented automatically. Take care on not to have typos errors in the oam-config.xml file you import as I’m not sure there is a validation before the import and the OAM schema can be corrupted.
