Notes user accounts

Use the One Identity Manager to manage users and employee documents in Domino. These are mapped in the One Identity Manager database as Notes user accounts. All user accounts known to the Domino Directory are mapped. Users obtain access to network resources through membership in groups and through assigned policies.

When a user is added, the user ID file for authentication, the mailbox file and the user’s personal address book are added. The mailbox file is created on the given mail server, the ID file and the personal address book are created on the gateway server.

If no certificate is assigned when a new user account is added in One Identity Manager, only the employee document is created in the target system. No user ID file, mailbox file nor personal address book is created.

Creating and editing Notes user accounts

A user account can be linked to an employee in One Identity Manager. You can also manage user accounts separately from employees.

  1. In the Manager, select the HCL Domino > User accounts category.

General main data for Notes user accounts

Enter the following data on the General tab.

Table 30: General main data of a Notes user account

Property

Description

Employee

Employee that uses this user account. An employee is already entered if the user account was generated by an account definition. If you create the user account manually, you can select an employee in the menu. If you are using automatic employee assignment, an associated employee is found and added to the user account when you save the user account.

You can create a new employee for a user account with an identity of type Organizational identity, Personalized administrator identity, Sponsored identity, Shared identity, or Service identity. To do this, click next to the input field and enter the required employee main data. Which login data is required depends on the selected identity type.

No link to an employee required

Specifies whether the user account is intentionally not assigned an employee. The option is automatically set if a user account is included in the exclusion list for automatic employee assignment or a corresponding attestation is carried out. You can set the option manually. Enable the option if the user account does not need to be linked with an employee (for example, if several employees use the user account).

If attestation approves these user accounts, these user accounts will not be submitted for attestation in the future. In the Web Portal, user accounts that are not linked to an employee can be filtered according to various criteria.

Not linked to an employee

Indicates why the No link to an employee required option is enabled for this user account. Possible values:

  • By administrator: The option was set manually by the administrator.

  • By attestation: The user account was attested.

  • By exclusion criterion: The user account is not associated with an employee due to an exclusion criterion. For example, the user account is included in the exclude list for automatic employee assignment (configuration parameter PersonExcludeList).

Account definition

Account definition through which the user account was created.

Use the account definition to automatically fill user account main data and to specify a manage level for the user account. One Identity Manager finds the IT operating data of the assigned employee and enters it in the corresponding fields in the user account.

NOTE: The account definition cannot be changed once the user account has been saved.

NOTE: Use the user account's Remove account definition task to reset the user account to Linked status. This removes the account definition from both the user account and the employee. The user account remains but is not managed by the account definition anymore. The task only removes account definitions that are directly assigned (XOrigin=1).

Employee documents can also be created through account definitions.
