Adding custom tables or columns to the One Identity Manager schema

The object technology implemented in One Identity Manager makes it possible to add customer-specific columns and tables to the existing application data model at the database level. These are, therefore, available at the object level with all corresponding tasks. A custom extension to the system data model is not recommended.

Basic knowledge of the database system's SQL Server in use is a prerequisite for making schema extensions. It is assumed that you understand the concept and the architecture of One Identity Manager.

To implement a custom extension of the One Identity Manager schema, use the Schema Extension program. You can make the following extensions using the Schema Extension:

  • Create new tables

  • Create new assignment tables

  • Create new columns

  • Create new views

  • Create new indexes

  • Removing custom schema extensions

    NOTE: You can delete custom schema extensions only on databases with the Test environment or Development system staging level. It is not possible to transport the changes.

The Schema Extension program creates the schema extensions in the database and ensures that the necessary extensions are made in the One Identity Manager schema. The basic table definitions and column definitions of the custom tables are entered in the DialogTable, DialogColumn, QBMRelation and DialogValidDynamicRef tables. You must then adjust the properties in the Designer to the desired requirements.

The Designer contains a variety of consistency checks. Run these consistency checks and apply the repair methods after carrying out a schema extension and after making changes to table and column definitions. For more information about checking data consistency, see the One Identity Manager Operational Guide.

Creating new tables

Use this task to create a simple table in the One Identity Manager schema.

Technical details

  • The technical identifier for the table is automatically formed according to the CCC<Table name> schema.

  • The following columns are generated automatically:

    • Primary key column

      The primary key column is automatically transferred as the UID. The name of the primary key column is formed according to the UID_CCC<table name>.

    • X columns (XUserInserted, XUserUpdated, XDateInserted, XDateUpdated, XTouched, XObjectKey, XMarkedForDeletion)

To create a simple table in the Schema Extension

  1. Start the Launchpad and log in to the One Identity Manager database.

  2. Open the Launchpad and select the One Identity Manager Schema Extension entry. This starts the Schema Extension program.

  3. Click Next on the start page.

  4. On the Database connection page, check the connection data for the One Identity Manager database.

  5. On the Select method page, select New table.

  6. On the Create new table page, enter the following information.

    Table 166: Table properties
    Property Description

    Table

    A technical name for the table.

    Display name

    Displays table name The display name is used, for example, to identify the table in a database search or for error output.

    Description

    Comments on using the table.

  7. On the Configure columns of table page, create the new columns. For more information, see Defining columns.

Extending tables

To extend an existing table in the Schema Extension

  1. Start the Launchpad and log in to the One Identity Manager database.

  2. Open the Launchpad and select the One Identity Manager Schema Extension entry. This starts the Schema Extension program.

  3. Click Next on the start page.

  4. On the Database connection page, check the connection data for the One Identity Manager database.

  5. On the Select method page, select Extend table.

  6. On the Extend table page, select the table that you want to extend from the Table menu.

  7. On the Configure columns of table page, create the new columns. For more information, see Defining columns.

Defining columns

On the Configure columns of table page in the Schema Extension, you can see which columns already exit for the selected table and how many resources are free for new columns.

NOTE: Take the maximum size allowed for a table into account when extending.
