When you generate a password, all the password policy settings, custom scripts and the restricted passwords are taken into account.
To generate a password that conforms to the password policy
In the Manager, select the Cloud target systems | Basic configuration data | Password policies category.
Click Generate.
This generates and displays a password.
| Configuration parameter | Meaning |
|---|---|
|
QER | Person | UseCentralPassword |
This configuration parameter specifies whether the employee's central password is used in the user accounts. The employee’s central password is automatically mapped to the employee’s user account in all permitted target systems. This excludes privileged user accounts, which are not updated. |
|
QER | Person | UseCentralPassword | PermanentStore |
This configuration parameter controls the storage period for central passwords. If the parameter is set, the employee’s central password is permanently stored. If the parameter is not set, the central password is only to publicize the target system and is subsequently deleted from the One Identity Manager database. |
|
TargetSystem | CSM | Accounts | InitialRandomPassword |
This configuration parameter specifies whether a random generated password is issued when a new user account is added. The password must contain at least those character sets that are defined in the password policy. |
You can issue an initial password for a new user account in the following ways:
Create user accounts manually and enter a password in their master data.
Assign a randomly generated initial password to enter when you create user accounts.
In the Designer, set the TargetSystem | CSM | Accounts | InitialRandomPassword configuration parameter.
Apply target system specific password policies and define the character sets that the password must contain.
Specify which employee will receive the initial password by email.
Use the employee's central password. The employee’s central password is mapped to the user account password. For detailed information about an employee’s central password, see the One Identity Manager Identity Management Base Module Administration Guide.
You can configure the login information for new user accounts to be sent by email to a specified person. In this case, two messages are sent with the user name and the initial password. Mail templates are used to generate the messages. The mail text in a mail template is defined in several languages. This means the recipient’s language can be taken into account when the email is generated. Mail templates are supplied in the default installation with which you can configure the notification procedure.
The following prerequisites must be fulfilled in order to use notifications:
When a randomly generated password is issued for the new user account, the initial login data for a user account is sent by email to a previously specified person.
To send initial login data by email
By default, the message sent uses the Employee - new user account created mail template. The message contains the name of the user account.
By default, the message sent uses the Employee - initial password for new user account mail template. The message contains the initial password for the user account.
A default application role exists for the target system manager in One Identity Manager.
For detailed information about implementing and editing application roles, see the One Identity Manager Authorization and Authentication Guide.
The One Identity Manager administrator allocates employees to be target system administrators.
These target system administrators add employees to the default application role for target system managers.
Target system managers with the default application role are authorized to edit all the cloud target systems in One Identity Manager.
Target system managers can authorize other employees within their area of responsibility as target system managers and if necessary, create additional child application roles and assign these to individual cloud target systems.
