Delegating the task to undo deprovisioning

Restoring deprovisioned users or groups is, by default, a right of Active Roles Admin, the administrative account specified during Active Roles installation, but this task can be delegated to any group or user. A dedicated Access Template is provided for this purpose so you can delegate the use of the Undo Deprovisioning command without delegating the create or delete operation.

To delegate the task of restoring deprovisioned users or groups held in a certain container, such as an organizational unit or a Managed Unit, you should apply the Access Template as follows.

To delegate the Undo Deprovisioning task

  1. In the Active Roles console, right-click the container and click Delegate Control to display the Active Roles Security window.
  2. In the Active Roles Security window, click Add to start the Delegation of Control wizard. Click Next.
  3. On the Users or Groups page, click Add, and then select the users or groups to which you want to delegate the task. Click Next.
  4. On the Access Templates page, expand the Active Directory folder and then do the following:

    1. To delegate the task of restoring deprovisioned users, select the check box next to Users - Perform Undo Deprovision Tasks.

    2. To delegate the task of restoring deprovisioned groups, select the check box next to Groups - Perform Undo Deprovision Tasks.

  5. Click Next and follow the instructions in the wizard, accepting the default settings.

After you complete these steps, the users and groups you selected in Step 3 are authorized to restore deprovisioned users in the container you selected in Step 1, as well as in any sub-container of that container.

Using the Undo Deprovisioning command

The Undo Deprovisioning command is available in both the Active Roles console and Web Interface to those who are authorized to restore deprovisioned users or groups. By using this command, you start the Undo Deprovisioning operation on the objects you have selected, causing Active Roles to undo the results of deprovisioning on those objects.

To restore a deprovisioned user account

  1. In the Active Roles console, right-click the user account, and then click Undo Deprovisioning.
  2. In the Password Options dialog box, choose the options to apply to the password of the restored account, and then click OK.

For information about each option, open the Password Options dialog box, and then press F1.

  1. Wait while Active Roles restores the user account.

To restore a deprovisioned group

  1. In the Active Roles console, right-click the group, and then click Undo Deprovisioning.
  2. Wait while Active Roles restores the group.

The operation progress and results are displayed in the Results of Undo Deprovisioning window, which is similar to the Deprovisioning Results window discussed earlier in this chapter. When the operation is completed, the window displays the operation summary, and allows you to examine operation results in detail.

Report on results of undo deprovisioning

For each of the restored objects, the Results of Undo Deprovisioning window can be used to examine the restore operation results on that object. The Active Roles console or Web Interface opens the Results of Undo Deprovisioning window when carrying out the Undo Deprovisioning command.

The Results of Undo Deprovisioning window displays a report of the Undo Deprovisioning operation, which is similar to a deprovisioning-related report discussed earlier in this chapter. The report organizes operation results into sections, with each section containing report items specific to a certain category of deprovisioning policy. The report items within a particular section inform of the actions performed to roll back the changes that were made by the deprovisioning policy of the respective category.

When you click the heading at the top of the report, the report is fully expanded and all report items are shown. Alternatively, you can expand and contract individual sections within the report by clicking the heading for each section.

For certain items, the report provides the option to further expand the view and display additional information. By clicking the List option, you can display a list of items, such as user or groups properties, involved in the operation. By clicking the Details option, you can examine the operation result in more detail.

The Results of Undo Deprovisioning window also provides the ability to document all the operation results to a file for printing or viewing. Using the shortcut menu, you can export the report to a file as either HTML or XML, print the report, or send it out via e-mail.

Report contents

The following tables list the possible report items, one table per report section. The items in each section describe the results of the actions taken to undo the changes made by the respective deprovisioning policy. Report items also inform about success or failure of each action. In the event of a failure, the report item includes an error description.

Not all the listed items must necessarily be present in a report. An actual report only includes the report items related to the deprovisioning policies that were in effect when the user or group was deprovisioned.
