Identity Manager 8.2.1 - Administration Guide for Connecting to Custom Target Systems

Managing custom target systems Setting up scripted data provisioning in a custom target system Managing user accounts and employees Managing assignments of groups and system entitlements Login information for user accounts Mapping custom target system objects in One Identity Manager Treatment of custom target system objects in the Web Portal Basic configuration data for custom target systems Configuration parameters for managing custom target systems

Managing custom target systems

You can also map your own implementations, such as telephone systems, in One Identity Manager along side directly supported target systems. To manage these target systems with One Identity Manager, create container structures, user accounts, groups, and system entitlements. Groups and system entitlements represent the objects used in the target system to control access to target system resources.

NOTE: The Target System Base Module module must be installed as a prerequisite for managing custom target systems in One Identity Manager. For more information about installing, see the One Identity Manager Installation Guide.

The One Identity Manager components for managing custom target systems are available if the TargetSystem | UNS configuration parameter is set.

  • In the Designer, check if the configuration parameter is set. Otherwise, set the configuration parameter and compile the database.

    NOTE:If you disable the configuration parameter at a later date, model components and scripts that are not longer required, are disabled. SQL procedures and triggers are still carried out. For more information about the behavior of preprocessor relevant configuration parameters and conditional compiling, see the One Identity Manager Configuration Guide.

  • Other configuration parameters are installed when the module is installed. Check the configuration parameters and modify them as necessary to suit your requirements.

Define a custom process to swap data between the target system and the One Identity Manager database. One Identity Manager offers different ways of transferring data.

  • One Identity Manager provides predefined processes for data provisioning in the default installation. The processes use scripts for data provisioning. Provisioning data from One Identity Manager into the custom target system must be customized because each custom target system maps the data differently. For more information, see Setting up scripted data provisioning in a custom target system.

  • Alternatively, you can set up scripted synchronization using a CSV connector. This requires a large amount of customizing. For more information about this, see the One Identity Manager CSV Connector User Guide.

  • The Data Import program gives One Identity Manager a simple means of importing data from other systems. The program supports importing from .csv files and importing directly from other database systems. For more information, see the One Identity Manager Operational Guide.

One Identity Manager users for managing custom target systems

The following users are used for setting up and administration of custom target systems.

Table 1: Users
Users Tasks

Target system administrators

Target system administrators must be assigned to the Target systems | Administrators application role.

Users with this application role:

  • Administer application roles for individual target system types.

  • Specify the target system manager.

  • Set up other application roles for target system managers if required.

  • Specify which application roles for target system managers are mutually exclusive.

  • Authorize other employees to be target system administrators.

  • Do not assume any administrative tasks within the target system.

Target system managers

Target system managers must be assigned to the Target systems | Custom target systems application role or a child application role.

Users with this application role:

  • Assume administrative tasks for the target system.

  • Create, change, or delete target system objects.

  • Edit password policies for the target system.

  • Prepare groups and system entitlements to add to the IT Shop.

  • Can add employees who have another identity than the Primary identity.

  • Configure synchronization in the Synchronization Editor and define the mapping for comparing target systems and One Identity Manager.

  • Edit the synchronization's target system types and outstanding objects.

  • Authorize other employees within their area of responsibility as target system managers and create child application roles if required.

One Identity Manager administrators

One Identity Manager administrator and administrative system users Administrative system users are not added to application roles.

One Identity Manager administrators:

  • Create customized permissions groups for application roles for role-based login to administration tools in the Designer as required.

  • Create system users and permissions groups for non role-based login to administration tools in the Designer as required.

  • Enable or disable additional configuration parameters in the Designer as required.

  • Create custom processes in the Designer as required.

  • Create and configure schedules as required.

  • Create and configure password policies as required.

Administrators for the IT Shop

Administrators must be assigned to the Request & Fulfillment | IT Shop | Administrators application role.

Users with this application role:

  • Assign groups to IT Shop structures.

  • Assign system entitlements to IT Shop structures.

Administrators for organizations

Administrators must be assigned to the Identity Management | Organizations | Administrators application role.

Users with this application role:

  • Assign groups to departments, cost centers, and locations.

  • Assign system entitlements to departments, cost centers, and locations.

Business roles administrators

Administrators must be assigned to the Identity Management | Business roles | Administrators application role.

Users with this application role:

  • Assign groups to business roles.

  • Assign system entitlements to business roles.

Configuration parameters for managing custom target systems

Use configuration parameters to configure the behavior of the system's basic settings. One Identity Manager provides default settings for different configuration parameters. Check the configuration parameters and modify them as necessary to suit your requirements.

Configuration parameters are defined in the One Identity Manager modules. Each One Identity Manager module can also install configuration parameters. In the Designer, you can find an overview of all configuration parameters in the Base data > General > Configuration parameters category.

For more information, see Configuration parameters for managing custom target systems.

Setting up scripted data provisioning in a custom target system

One Identity Manager provides predefined processes for data provisioning in the default installation. The processes use scripts for data provisioning. Provisioning data from One Identity Manager into the custom target system must be customized because each custom target system maps the data differently.

Processes are handled by the generic web service. For more detailed information about calling the generic web service, see the One Identity Manager Configuration Guide.

To use this provisioning procedure, the following steps are required:

TIP: Alternatively, you can set up scripted synchronization using a CSV connector. This requires a large amount of customizing. For more information about this, see the One Identity Manager CSV Connector User Guide.
