Configuring synchronization

Not all system connectors provide a project templateClosed for creating a full configured synchronization projectClosed. Therefore, you can also create a synchronization project manually. In this case, the project wizard sets up the system connection. All other synchronization configuration components must be configured after you have saved the synchronization project.

To manually set up synchronization of the One IdentityClosed Manager database with a target system

  1. Install and configure a synchronization serverClosed and declare the server as a Job server in One Identity Manager.
  2. Create a new synchronization project.
    • The project wizard sets up the system connection.
    • On the Select project template page, select Create blank project.
  1. Add mappings. Define property mapping rules and object matching rules.

  2. Create synchronization workflowsClosed.

  3. Create a start up configuration.

  4. Define the synchronization scope.

  5. Specify the base object of the synchronization.

  6. Specify the extent of the synchronization log.

  7. Run a consistency check.

  8. Activate the synchronization project.

  9. Save the new synchronization project in the database.

Setting up mappings

MappingsClosed group together the rules used to map the schema properties of two connected systemsClosed. For this, a schema class is created for every schema type which requires mapping. A schema class limits the result list of a schema type through defined filer criteria. A mapping maps schema properties from exactly one target system schema class to the schema properties of exactly one schema class in the One IdentityClosed Manager schema. A schema class without a filter condition represents the schema type.

Property mapping rules describe how the target system schema properties are mapped in the One Identity Manager schema. Object matching rules assign schema properties through which system objects can be uniquely identified. For example, Active Directory groups can be uniquely identified by the schema properties DistinguishedName and ObjectGUID.

You specify in the mapping, which mapping directionClosed is permitted for the connected schema classes. Furthermore, you can also specify the permitted mapping direction for individual property mapping rules.

Default mappings for target system synchronizationClosed are added if the synchronization projectClosed was created with a default project templateClosed. You can edit or delete these mappings or create new mappings. If the synchronization project was created without a project template, no mappings are set up.

The schema property mapping is edited with the mapping editor.

Mapping editor

The schema property mappingClosed is edited with the mapping editor. The mapping editor is divided into two schema view and two rule views. Each mapping editor view has its own toolbar.

TIP:

To display mapped schema properties of a shelfClosed

  • Select a property mapping rule or an object matching rule in the shelf view.

    All the schema properties mapped by this shelf are displayed.

    - OR -

  • Select the schema property in the schema view.

    All the property mapping and object matching rules mapped by this schema property are marked.
