Creating an IBM RACF connection

To create a new connection

  1. In the Synchronization Service Console, open the Connections tab.
  2. Click Add connection, then use the following options:
    • Connection name: Type a descriptive name for the connection.

    • Use the specified connector: Select IBM RACF Connector.

  3. Click Next.

  4. On the Specify connection settings page, use the following options:

    • Server: Type the fully qualified DNS name of the IBM RACF server running the LDAP service. Type the fully qualified DNS name of the IBM RACF server running the LDAP service.

    • Port: Type the fully qualified DNS name of the IBM RACF server running the LDAP service.

    • User name: Specify the fully distinguished name (DN) of the account that the application will use to access the IBM RACF LDAP directory service

    • Password: Specify the password of the user account that the application will use to access the IBM RACF LDAP directory service.

    • Test Connection: Click this button to verify the specified connection settings.

  5. Click Next.

  6. Click Finishto create a connection to IBM RACF connector.

Modifying an IBM RACF connection

To create a new connection

  1. In the Synchronization Service Console, open the Connections tab.

  2. Click Connection Settings below the existing IBM RACF connection you want to modify.

  3. On the Connection Settings tab, click the Specify connection settings item to expand it and use the following options:

    • Server: Type the fully qualified DNS name of the IBM RACF server running the LDAP service. Type the fully qualified DNS name of the IBM RACF server running the LDAP service.

    • Port: Type the fully qualified DNS name of the IBM RACF server running the LDAP service.

    • User name: Specify the fully distinguished name (DN) of the account that the application will use to access the IBM RACF LDAP directory service

    • Password: Specify the password of the user account that the application will use to access the IBM RACF LDAP directory service.

    • Test Connection: Click this button to verify the specified connection settings.

  4. Click Save.

Example of mapping for dataset information

The IBM RACF connector can be used to synchronize IBM RACF dataset information. The LDAPX exit must be installed and configured for this functionality to be supported.

The examples in this topic shows how IBM RACF dataset information can be synchronized. IBM RACF dataset names contain asterisk (*) characters and as such cannot be synchronized to Active Directory which does not allow asterisk characters in names. As such, the example shows a synchronization to a Microsoft SQL database. It is assumed that Microsoft SQL Server and Microsoft SQL Server Manager have been installed and configured.

Creating SQL database and table

Using Microsoft SQL Server Manager, create a database called IBM RACF_Datasets. Within that database, create a table called Datasets with the following columns:

Column Name

Data Type

Audit

 nchar(100)

Create_Group

nchar(10)

Owner

nchar(10)

UACC

nchar(10)

UID (database key)

nchar(100)

Create a connection to this database and table with the ARSS Microsoft SQL Server Connector.
