How to edit start up configurations

To edit a start up configuration

  1. In the Synchronization EditorClosed, select the Configuration > Start up configurations category.
  2. Select a start up configuration in the document view and click Edit....
  3. Edit the start up configuration's main data.
  4. Click OK.

How to delete start up configurations

To delete a start up configuration

  1. In the Synchronization EditorClosed, select the Configuration > Start up configurations category.
  2. Select a start up configuration in the document view.
  3. Click Delete.
  4. Confirm the security prompt with Yes.

Start up configuration properties

Enter the following general properties for a start up configuration.

Table 60: General properties of a start up configuration

Property

Description

Display name

Name of the start up configuration.

WorkflowClosed

Workflow processed by this start up configuration.

Direction of synchronization

 Direction in which synchronization will be run.

Select a synchronization direction from the list when Defined when run and at least one Use workflow default synchronization step is saved with the workflow. Otherwise the direction of the synchronization workflow or synchronization step is used for synchronization.

To the target system

One Identity Manager is the primary system for synchronization.

To One Identity Manager

The target system is the primary system for synchronization.

Revision filteringClosed

The revision filtering can be used to limit synchronization to just the objects that have been modified since the last synchronization.

Select a value from the list when Defined when run and at least one Use workflow default synchronization step is saved with the workflow. Otherwise the value of the workflow or synchronization step is used for synchronization.

Use revision filter

Only modified object are synchronized.

Do not use revision filter

All objects are synchronized.

ScheduleClosed

Schedule for starting synchronization.

Variable setClosed

Assign the variable set with which to run synchronization.

If no variable set is given, the default variable is used. If a specialized variable set is assigned, a list of all variables with their values is displayed.

If changes are provisioned from One Identity Manager to the target system, each start up configuration must have a corresponding base object that uses the same variable set.

Grouping

Table 61: Configuration parameters for the delayed start of further synchronizationsClosed

Configuration parameterClosed

Meaning

Common | Jobservice | RedoDelayMinutes

This configuration parameter specifies the wait time (latency) in minutes before the Job serverClosed attempts to run a process stepClosed again.

You can group start up configurations logically on the Grouping tab. If you have several start up configurations, you can group them together into a start up group. Specify the start up behavior for each start up group. The same start up behavior applies to all start up configurations belonging to the same start up group.

Table 62: Grouping start up configurations

Property

Description

Name

Name of the start up group.

  • To create a new start up group, enter a name.

    - OR -

  • Select an existing start up group from the menu.

Concurrence behavior

One Identity Manager behavior if multiple start up configurations are run simultaneously.

Ignore

Multiple synchronization can be run simultaneously.

NOTE: This behavior can cause synchronization errors or loss of data.

Plan your start times carefully. If possible, specify your start times so that synchronization does not overlap.

Stop on error

If synchronization is already running, each new synchronization attempt breaks off with an error. Check the One Identity Manager ServiceClosed log file for this.

Postpone and wait

If synchronization is already running, the each new synchronization is postponed until the first one has finished. You can adjust the wait time using the Common | Jobservice | RedoDelayMinutes configuration parameter.

This configuration parameter specifies the wait time in minutes before the Job server attempts to start synchronization again. If the first synchronization is still running, the start of a further synchronization is delayed for the specified length of time. This configuration parameter is only effective on grouped start up configurations whose concurrence behavior is configured with the Postpone and wait option. The default value is two minutes.
