Identity Manager 9.1 - Target System Synchronization Reference Guide

To add a base object using an existing database object

1. Select the Configuration > Base objects category.

2. Click in the document view toolbar.

3. Edit the base object's main data.

4. Click OK.

If the base object does not yet exist in the One Identity Manager database, use the wizard to create a base object.

NOTE: The wizard is only available to target systems that are contained in One Identity Manager as default modules. The wizard cannot be used in synchronization projectsA collection of all data required for synchronizingThe processSequence of process steps for mappingList of object matching rules and property mapping rules which map the schema properties of two connected systems to one another. an operational workflow. The process steps are connected to one another by predecessor/successor relationships. This functionality allows flexibility when linking up actions and sequences on object events. of comparing data between One Identity Manager and a target system. Objects and their properties are compared by fixed rules. Synchronization results in the identical data situation in the target system and One Identity Manager database. and provisioning a target system. Connection data, schema classes and properties, mappings, and synchronization workflows all belongs to this. with the CSV connectorSystem connector which allow data to be imported from CSV files. or the generic database connectorSystem connector for connecting to an external database..

To add a base object using a wizard

1. Select the Configuration > Base objects category.

2. Click in the document view toolbar.

3. On the welcome page, click Next.

4. On the System access page, specify how One Identity Manager can access the target system.

   • If access is possible from the workstation on which you started the Synchronization EditorOne Identity Manager tool for configuring target system synchronizationPost processing of objects that were marked as outstanding by synchronization.., do not change any settings.

   • If access is not possible from the workstation on which you started the Synchronization Editor, you can establish a remote connection.

     Enable the Connect using remote connection server option and select the server to be used for the connection under Job serverServer with the One Identity Manager Service installed..

5. Select the system connection for the new base object on the Create system connection page.

   Follow the system connection wizard instructions. For more information about the connection parameter you require, see the administration guides of the respective target systems.

6. On the Synchronization server page, select the synchronization serverJob server installed with the target system connector. All One Identity Manager actions are run against the target system environment on the synchronization server. to run synchronization.

   If the synchronization server is not declared as a Job server in the One Identity Manager database yet, you can add a new Job server.

   • Click to add a new Job server.

   • Enter a name for the Job server and the full server name conforming to DNS syntax.

   • Click OK.

     The synchronization server is declared as Job server for the target system in the One Identity Manager database.

     NOTE: After you save the synchronization project, ensure that this server is set up as a synchronization server.

7. Click Finish to complete the wizard.

The wizard creates a variable set with the given connection parameters. It creates the synchronization base object, for example, the actual Active Directory domain you want to synchronize, as an object in the One Identity Manager database.
