Customizing the One Identity Manager base configuration

The base data includes the main settings for configuring One Identity Manager. They are usually checked and customized on a one-off basis before the system goes into operation. The base data contains the database connection data, authentication module usage, languages used or the configuration parameter settings.

Overview of the database settings

NOTE: Changes to the data are not usually necessary and should only be made by advanced users.

To display database information

  1. In the Designer, select the Base Data > General > Databases category.

  2. Select the database in the List Editor.

  3. The following information appears:

Table 7: Database information
Property Meaning

Main database

Identifies the database as the main database. The One Identity Manager database is marked with this option when the schema is installed the first time.

Customer

Name of the customer.

Description

Description of database.

Customer prefix

Customer ID for prefix. The customer prefix is used to create and transfer customized scripts, processes, and extensions to the One Identity Manager schema.

Module owner

Module owner ID for prefix. The prefix is used to create and transfer customized scripts, processes, and extensions to the One Identity Manager schema.

Staging level

Specifies whether the database is a test, development, or production database. The permitted values are Development system, Test environment, and Production system.

Custom staging level

Detailed information about staging levels. This information is shown in the status bar of the programs in the database connection tooltip and in the installation overview in the Launchpad.

Status bar color

The color of the status bar can be displayed in a different color to the layout depending on the staging level. The color can be defined by template and customized. The following colors are defined as default:

  • None - database for development is connected.

  • Green - database for testing is connected.

  • Yellow - database for production is connected.

Last compiler relevant configuration date

Date and time of the last compiler relevant modification. If the value is changed the database has to be recompiled.

Simulation started

Time at which the last front-end simulation was started.

Stop DBQueue Processor

If this option is set for the main database, the DBQueue Processor does not process any more tasks. You can stop and start the DBQueue Processor with the appropriate administrative permissions in Job Queue Info.

For more information, see the One Identity Manager Process Monitoring and Troubleshooting Guide.

Stop One Identity Manager Service

If this option is set for the main database, the One Identity Manager Service does not process any more tasks. You stop and start the service with the appropriate administrative permissions in Job Queue Info.

For more information, see the One Identity Manager Process Monitoring and Troubleshooting Guide.

provider

Database provider. VI.DB.ViSqlFactory,VI.DB is entered for the connection to the SQL server.

Connection parameter

Login data for the database user, database server, and the database. The data is entered into the database during schema installation.

Authentication module

The default authentication for logging in to the database.

For more information about One Identity Manager authentication modules, see the One Identity Manager Authorization and Authentication Guide.

Language (default)

The default language. Fallback alternative for displaying language-dependent text.

Country (default)

The default country. The country that is taken into account when determining working hours and public holidays.

Edition

Name of the installed edition.

Edition description

Detailed description of the edition.

Database ID

Identifier for the database. The database ID is taken from the original database server and database data. The database ID has to be recalculated if a database is created from a database backup on another server. When a database is compiled, the database ID is checked and changed if necessary.

Single-user mode process

Process requiring single-user mode. If the value 0, a single-user mode is not required.

Note: The DBQueue Processor checks at regular intervals whether the single user mode is still required and resets the setting if necessary.

Single-user mode start time

Time of the request for single-user mode.

Note: The DBQueue Processor checks at regular intervals whether the single user mode is still required and resets the setting if necessary.

Public key for encryption

The public key is entered by the Crypto Configuration program and is needed for database encryption. For more information about database encryption, see the One Identity Manager Installation Guide.

Preparation phase for migration

Progress display for step-by-step preparation of migration. Possible phases are:

  • Green: The database is in normal operating mode.

  • Yellow: All database users will be informed about the upcoming update. The system does accept anymore processes. The preparation phase is displayed in the program's status bar.

  • Orange: New users cannot log in to the database anymore. All running processes will still be processed. The preparation phase is displayed in the program's status bar.

  • Red: The database is ready for updating. The preparation phase is displayed in the program's status bar.

  • Red/green: The processes queued by migration are in the final stage of processing.

Database configuration for a test, development, or productive environment

You use the staging level of the One Identity Manager database to specify whether the database is a test database, development database, or a live database. A number of database settings are controlled by the staging level.

If you change the database's staging level, the following settings are configured.
