Deprovision an existing Active Roles user for SaaS products

Active Roles provides the ability to deprovision SaaS product users. When an Active Roles user is deprovisioned, if the user is mapped to Starling Connect, then the user is deprovisioned from the selected connected system. This means the Active Roles SaaS product user is prevented from logging on to the network and connecting to any of the connected systems through the registered connectors.

The Deprovision command on a user updates the account as prescribed by the deprovisioning policies.

Active Roles comes with a default policy to automate some commonly-used deprovisioning tasks, and allows the administrator to configure and apply additional policies.

To deprovision a user for a SaaS product

  1. On the Active Roles Web Interface navigation bar, click Directory Management.

  2. On the Views tab in the Browse pane, click Active Directory.

    The list of Active Directory domains is displayed.

  3. Click the specific domain, Container or the Organizational Unit, and then select the check box corresponding to the specific user, which you want to deprovision for SaaS products

  4. Select the user, and in the Command pane, click Deprovision.

    A message is displayed prompting you to confirm the account deprovision.

  5. Click Yes to continue.

    Wait while Active Roles updates the user.

    After the task is completed, a message is displayed that the account is deprovisioned successfully from Active Roles.

    If the user is mapped to Starling Connect, then the user is deprovisioned from the connected systems.

To undo deprovision of a user for a SaaS product

  1. On the Active Roles Web Interface navigation bar, click Directory Management.

  2. On the Views tab in the Browse pane, click Active Directory.

    The list of Active Directory domains is displayed.

  3. Click the specific domain, Container or the Organizational Unit, and then select the check box corresponding to the specific user, which you want to undo deprovision for SaaS products.

  4. In the Command pane, click Undo Deprovisioning.

    The Password Options dialog is displayed.

  5. Select the option to Leave the Password unchanged or Reset the password, and click OK.

Notifications for Starling operations

  • Import a valid certificate into Trusted Root Certificate Authority in the machine where Active Roles Service is installed.

  • In the below command, substitute thumbprint of the newly added certificate to CERT_HASH.

  • In the below command, substitute a Unique GUID to APP_ID.

  • Run the command below in PowerShell command interface:

    netsh http add sslcert ipport=0.0.0.0:7466 appid='{APP_ID}' certhash=<CERT_HASH>.

SCIM attribute mapping with Active Directory

Active Roles provides support to connect to Starling Connect to manage the user provisioning and deprovisioning activities for the registered connectors. This is achieved through the internal attribute mapping mechanism. The AD attributes are mapped to SCIM attributes to perform each operation.

Configuring linked mailboxes with Exchange Resource Forest Management

The Exchange Resource Forest Management (ERFM) feature of Active Roles allows you to automate mailbox provisioning for on-premises users in environments where the mailboxes and the user accounts are managed in different Active Directory (AD) forests. Such multi-forest environments are based on the resource forest model, and mailboxes provisioned in such environments are called linked mailboxes.

Multi-forest AD deployments have higher administrative and support costs. However, they offer the highest level of security isolation between AD objects and the Exchange service. As such, One Identity recommends configuring the resource forest model for use with Active Roles in organizations that:

  • Aim for an extra layer of data security.

  • Frequently experience organizational changes (for example, buying companies, or consolidating and breaking off branch companies, departments and other business units).

  • Abide by certain legal or regulatory requirements.

AD deployments following the resource forest model use two types of AD forests:

  • Account forests: These AD forests store the user objects. Organizations can use one or more account forests in the resource forest model.

  • Resource forest: This AD forest contains the Exchange server and stores the mailboxes of the user objects.

For more details on ERFM, see Exchange Resource Forest Management in the Active Roles Feature Guide.
