Creating and saving user ID files
When you add a user in the target system, a user ID file is created for authenticating the user. The Domino connector requires information about the minimum password length, the password strength, and the ID file's repository. When ID files are created, the settings in the following synchronization variables are taken into account.
Table 11: Settings for new user ID files
|
UserIsNorthAmerican |
Specifies whether the newly created ID files are compatible with the American (US) and Canadian Domino version.
Value 1: All new user ID files are calculated with North American encryption strength.
Default: 0 |
|
UserMinPwdLen |
Specifies the minimum password length that is set in all newly calculated user ID files.
Default: 0 |
|
UserStoreIDInAddressbook |
Specifies whether the ID file is attached to the employee document or saved on the gateway server.
Default: 0 - The ID file is attached to the employee document. |
To edit a variable
-
In the Synchronization Editor, open the synchronization project.
-
Select the Configuration > Variables category.
-
Select the variable and edit its value.
- Save the changes.
For more information about variables and variable sets, see the One Identity Manager Target System Synchronization Reference Guide.
To save the user ID files on the gateway server
-
In the synchronization project, edit the UserStoreIDInAddressbook variable. Enter the value 1.
-
Edit the domain's main data in the Manager and enter the user ID files path. Enter the path under which you want the files to be saved.
If a default path is not given by the domain, you can add the path to the user accounts' mail servers. If there is no path given either by the domain or the mail server, use the default Domino connector path, which is stored with the variable UserIDFilesDefaultPath in the synchronization project.

Running synchronization
Synchronization is started using scheduled process plans. It is possible to start synchronization manually in the Synchronization Editor. You can simulate synchronization beforehand to estimate synchronization results and discover errors in the synchronization configuration. If synchronization stopped unexpectedly, you must reset the start information to be able to restart synchronization.
If you want to specify the order in which target systems are synchronized, use the start up sequence to run synchronization. In a start up sequence, you can combine start up configurations from different synchronization projects and specify the order in which they are run. For more information about start up sequences, see the One Identity Manager Target System Synchronization Reference Guide.

Starting synchronization
When you set up the initial synchronization project using the Launchpad, a default schedule for regular synchronization is created and assigned. Activate this schedule to synchronize on a regular basis.
To synchronize on a regular basis
-
In the Synchronization Editor, open the synchronization project.
-
Select the Configuration > Start up configurations category.
-
Select a start up configuration in the document view and click Edit schedule.
-
Edit the schedule properties.
-
To enable the schedule, click Activate.
- Click OK.
You can also start synchronization manually if there is no active schedule.
To start initial synchronization manually
-
In the Synchronization Editor, open the synchronization project.
-
Select the Configuration > Start up configurations category.
-
Select a start up configuration in the document view and click Run.
- Confirm the security prompt with Yes.
IMPORTANT: As long as a synchronization process is running, you must not start another synchronization process for the same target system. This especially applies, if the same synchronization objects would be processed.
-
If another synchronization process is started with the same start up configuration, the process is stopped and is assigned Frozen status. An error message is written to the One Identity Manager Service log file.
-
Starting another synchronization process with different start up configuration that addresses same target system may lead to synchronization errors or loss of data. Specify One Identity Manager behavior in this case, in the start up configuration.
Displaying synchronization results
Synchronization results are summarized in the synchronization log. You can specify the extent of the synchronization log for each system connection individually. One Identity Manager provides several reports in which the synchronization results are organized under different criteria.
To display a synchronization log
-
In the Synchronization Editor, open the synchronization project.
-
Select the Logs category.
-
Click 
in the navigation view toolbar.
Logs for all completed synchronization runs are displayed in the navigation view.
-
Select a log by double-clicking it.
An analysis of the synchronization is shown as a report. You can save the report.
To display a provisioning log
-
In the Synchronization Editor, open the synchronization project.
-
Select the Logs category.
-
Click 
in the navigation view toolbar.
Logs for all completed provisioning processes are displayed in the navigation view.
-
Select a log by double-clicking it.
An analysis of the provisioning is shown as a report. You can save the report.
The log is marked in color in the navigation view. This mark shows you the status of the synchronization/provisioning.
TIP: The logs are also displayed in the Manager under the <target system> > synchronization log category.
