Customizing object display names

In Active Directory, each object type may have a display name, and each property of objects may have a display name. In user interfaces, display names are used as friendly names to identify object types and properties. The display names specific to a given object type are stored in the display specifier objects for that object type.

The Active Roles Console makes it easy to view or modify display names by using a separate tab in the Properties dialog for display specifier objects. The Display Names tab provides a convenient way to customize display names for object types and properties.

The Display Names tab can be used to specify or change the display name for the object type that the display specifier is associated with, and to add, modify or remove display names for properties of objects of that type. The property display names are managed using a list of name pairs, with the first name being the LDAP display name of a property and the display name of that property following the LDAP display name.

To customize the English-language display name for the User object class within a forest

  1. Open the Active Roles Console and switch into Raw view mode: Select View > Mode, then click Raw Mode and click OK.

  2. In the Active Roles Console, expand Active Directory > Configuration Container > Display Specifiers, and select the 409 container.

  3. In the details pane, right-click user-Display and click Properties.

  4. On the Display Names tab, in Display name for object type, modify the display name as appropriate, and then click OK.

  5. Restart the Administration Service and then reconnect the Console to the Service, for your changes to take effect.

By using these steps, you make changes to the display specifier held in Active Directory, so your changes affect not only Active Roles but also any client application intended to manage user objects in Active Directory, such as Active Directory Users and Computers. If you only want the display names to be customized within the Active Roles client interfaces, make changes to the custom display specifiers held in the Active Roles Display Specifiers (Custom) container. The Properties dialog for custom display specifiers also includes the Display Names tab, allowing you to customize display names so that your changes only affect the Active Roles environment.

Using Configuration Center

Configuration Center provides a single solution for configuring Administration Service instances and Web Interface sites, allowing you to perform the core configuration tasks from a single location.

The Configuration Center operations are fully scriptable using Windows PowerShell command-line tools provided by the Active Roles Management Shell.

Configuration Center design elements

Configuration Center is composed of the following elements:

  • Initial configuration wizards: After completing Active Roles Setup, the administrator uses the initial configuration wizards to create a new Active Roles instance, including the Administration Service and Web Interface. The wizards allow you to specify all the required configuration settings.

  • Hub pages and management wizards: Once the initial configuration has been completed, Configuration Center provides a consolidated view of the core Active Roles configuration settings, and offers tools for changing those settings. Hub pages in the Configuration Center main window display the current settings specific to the Administration Service and Web Interface, and include commands to start management wizards for changing those settings.

  • From the Administration Service page, you can view or change the service account, Active Roles and Admin account; configure the Active Roles Configuration Database and the Management History database; import configuration data or Management History data from an Active Roles database of an earlier version or the current version; view status information, such as whether the Administration Service is started and ready for use; start, stop or restart the Administration Service.

    By allowing configuration data to be imported at any convenient time, Configuration Center makes Active Roles much easier to upgrade. You can install the new Administration Service version side-by-side with an earlier version and then import configuration data to the new version as needed.

  • From the Web Interface page, you can view, create, modify, delete Web Interface sites, enable force SSL redirection, and configure authentication settings; export configuration of any existing Web Interface site to a file; open each site in a web browser. The site parameters available for setting, viewing and changing include the site’s address (URL, which is based on the website and alias of the web application that implements the Web Interface site on the web server) and the configuration object that stores the site’s configuration data on the Administration Service. When creating or modifying a Web Interface site, you can reuse an existing configuration object, or create a new configuration object based on a template or by importing data from another configuration object or from an export file.

    Wizards that start from hub pages help you manage configuration settings. Management wizards streamline the core configuration tasks by reducing time it takes to change the service account, Active Roles Admin account and database; import configuration and management history; and configure Web Interface sites on the web server.

  • From the Join to One Identity Starling wizard, you can enable Active Roles to connect to One Identity Starling, the Software as a Service (SaaS) solution of One Identity.

  • From the MMC Interface Access wizard, you can manage the settings for enabling or disabling user login to Active Roles Console.

  • Configuration Shell: Active Roles Management Shell enables access to all Configuration Center features and functions from a command line or from a script, allowing for unattended configuration of Active Roles components. The Windows PowerShell module named ActiveRolesConfiguration provides cmdlets for the key set of configuration tasks, such as creation of the Active Roles database, creation or modification of Administration Service instances and Web Interface sites, data exchange between Active Roles databases and between site configuration objects, querying the current state of the Administration Service, and starting, stopping or restarting the Administration Service. The cmdlets provided by the ActiveRolesConfiguration module have their noun prefixed with AR, such as New-ARDatabase, Set-ARService, or Set-ARWebSite.

Configuring a local or remote Active Roles instance

Configuration Center is installed as part of the Management Tools component when you install Active Roles on a 64-bit (x64) system. You can use this tool to perform configuration tasks on the local or remote computer that has the current version of the Administration Service or Web Interface installed. Configuration Center looks for these components on the local computer, if no component has been found, prompts you to connect to a remote computer. Another way to connect to a remote computer is by using the menu on the heading bar at the top of the Configuration Center main window.

When connecting to a remote computer, Configuration Center prompts you for a user name and password. This must be the name and password of a domain user account that belongs to the Administrators group on the remote computer. In addition, whether you are going to perform configuration tasks on the local computer or on a remote computer, your logon account must be a member of the Administrators group on the computer running Configuration Center.

To perform configuration tasks on a remote computer, Configuration Center requires Windows PowerShell remoting to be enabled on that computer. Run the Enable-PSRemoting command in the PowerShell console to enable remoting. For more information, see Enable-PSRemoting. On Windows Server 2016 or later, remoting is enabled by default.
