Assigning extended properties to Active Directory user accounts

Extended properties are meta objects, such as operating codes, cost codes, or cost accounting areas that cannot be mapped directly in One Identity Manager.

For detailed information about using extended properties, see the One Identity Manager Identity Management Base Module Administration Guide.

To specify extended properties for a user account

  1. In the Manager, select the Active Directory > User accounts category.

  2. Select the user account in the result list.

  3. Select Assign extended properties.

  4. In the Add assignments pane, assign extended properties.

    TIP: In the Remove assignments pane, you can remove assigned extended properties.

    To remove an assignment

    • Select the extended property and double-click .

  5. Save the changes.

Disabling Active Directory user accounts

The way you disable user accounts depends on how they are managed.

Scenario:

The user account is linked to employees and is managed through account definitions.

User accounts managed through account definitions are disabled when the employee is temporarily or permanently disabled. The behavior depends on the user account manage level. Accounts with the Full managed manage level are disabled depending on the account definition settings. For user accounts with a manage level, configure the required behavior using the template in the ADSAccount.AccountDisabled column.

Scenario:

The user accounts are linked to employees. No account definition is applied.

User accounts managed through user account definitions are disabled when the employee is temporarily or permanently disabled. The behavior depends on the QER | Person | TemporaryDeactivation configuration parameter

  • If the configuration parameter is set, the employee’s user accounts are disabled when the employee is permanently or temporarily disabled.

  • If the configuration parameter is not set, the employee’s properties do not have any effect on the associated user accounts.

To disable the user account when the configuration parameter is disabled

  1. In the Manager, select the Active Directory > User accounts category.

  2. Select the user account in the result list.

  3. Select the Change main data task.

  4. On the General tab, set the Account is disabled option.

  5. Save the changes.
Scenario:

User accounts not linked to employees.

To disable a user account that is no longer linked to an employee

  1. In the Manager, select the Active Directory > User accounts category.

  2. Select the user account in the result list.

  3. Select the Change main data task.

  4. On the General tab, set the Account is disabled option.

  5. Save the changes.

For more information about deactivating and deleting employees and user accounts, see the One Identity Manager Target System Base Module Administration Guide.

Deleting and restoring Active Directory user accounts

NOTE:

  • Containers with the Protected from accidental deletion option set, cannot be deleted.

  • As long as an account definition for an employee is valid, the employee retains the user account that was created by it. If the account definition assignment is removed, the user account that was created from this account definition, is deleted.

  • When you delete a user account, an Active Directory SID entry is created in One Identity Manager.

  • When you configure the synchronization project you define whether, when adding or restoring an Active Directory object in One Identity Manager, the system should first check if the object is in the Active Directory recycling bin and can be restored.

To delete a user account

  1. In the Manager, select the Active Directory > User accounts category.

  2. Select the user account in the result list.

  3. Click in the result list.

  4. Confirm the security prompt with Yes.

To restore a user account

Procedure for deleting Active Directory user account in One Identity Manager

Objects in Active Directorysuch as, for example user accounts, are issued with a unique identification number that is also linked to entitlements.

For domains with functional levels below Windows Server 2008 R2, when user accounts are deleted in Active Directory, the ID and the associated authorizations are irreversibly lost. This makes it difficult to restore user accounts.

For domains from the functional level Windows Server 2008 R2 and above, user accounts can be deleted using the recycling bin. This moves the users to the recycle bin and from where they can be restored within a defined period without loss of IDs or entitlements.

NOTE: When you configure the synchronization project you define whether, when adding or restoring an Active Directory object in One Identity Manager, the system should first check if the object is in the Active Directory recycling bin and can be restored.

One Identity Manager uses various methods for deleting user accounts.

Deleting without an Active Directory recycle bin

This method can be applied to all domains that:

  • Have a functional level below Windows Server 2008 R2 and therefore no recycling bin is available.

    - OR -

  • Have a functional level from Windows Server 2008 R2 and above but the recycling bin is not activated.

After you have confirmed the security alert, the user account is marked for deletion in One Identity Manager. The user account is locked in One Identity Manager and permanently deleted from the One Identity Manager database and the Active Directory depending on the deferred deletion setting.

Deleting with the Active Directory recycle bin

This method is used for domains from the functional level Windows Server 2008 R2, in which the recycling bin is activated.

After you have confirmed the security alert the user account is marked for deletion in the One Identity Manager. The user account is locked in One Identity Manager and is permanently deleted from the One Identity Manager database once the deferred deletion time has expired. In Active Directory, the user account is moved into the recycling bin and is finally deleted from Active Directory once the deferred deletion time has expired. The retention time for objects in the recycling bin is entered in the domain in the Retention period property.
