Show Synchronization Results

SynchronizationThe process of comparing data between One Identity Manager and a target system. Objects and their properties are compared by fixed rules. Synchronization results in the identical data situation in the target system and One Identity Manager database. results are summarized in the synchronization log. You can specify the extent of the synchronization log for each system connection individually. One Identity Manager provides several reports in which the synchronization results are organized under different criteria.

To display a synchronization log

1. Select the category Logs.
2. Click in the navigation view toolbar.

   Logs for all completed synchronization runs are displayed in the navigation view.

3. Select a log by double-clicking on it.

   An analysis of the synchronization is shown as a report. You can save the report.

To display a provisioning log.

1. Select the category Logs.
2. Click in the navigation view toolbar.

   Logs for all completed provisioning processes are displayed in the navigation view.

3. Select a log by double-clicking on it.

   An analysis of the provisioning is show as a report. You can save the report.

The log is marked in color in the navigation view. This mark shows you the execution status of the synchronization/provisioning.

Synchronization logs are stored for a fixed length of time. The retention period is set in the configuration parameter "DPR\Journal\LifeTime" and its sub parameters.

To modify the retention period for synchronization logs

• Set the configuration parameter "Common\Journal\LifeTime" in the Designer and enter the maximum retention time for entries in the database journal. Use the configuration sub parameters to specify the retention period for each warning level.
• If there is a large amount of data, you can specify the number of objects to delete per DBQueue Processor operation and run in order to improve performance. Use the configuration parameters "Common\Journal\Delete\BulkCount" and "Common\Journal\Delete\TotalCount" to do this.
• Configure and set the schedule "Delete journal" in the Designer.

Customizing Synchronization Configuration

Customizing Synchronization Configuration

You have used the Synchronization EditorOne Identity Manager tool for configuring target system synchronization. to set up a synchronization project for initial synchronization of a customer. You can use this synchronization project to load G Suite objects into the One Identity Manager database. If you manage user accounts and their authorizations with One Identity Manager, changes are provisioned in the G Suite.

You must customize the synchronization configuration in order to compare the database with the G Suite regularly and to synchronize changes.

• Create a workflow with the direction of synchronization "target system" to use One Identity Manager as the master system for synchronization.
• To specify which G Suite objects and database object are included in synchronization, edit the scope of the target system connection and the One Identity Manager database connection. To prevent data inconsistencies, define the same scope in both systems. If no scope is defined, all objects will be synchronized.
• You can use variables to create generally applicable synchronization configurations which contain the necessary information about the synchronization objects when synchronization starts. Variables can be implemented in base objects, schema classes or processing methods, for example.
• Use variables to set up a synchronization project which can be used for several different customers. Store a connection parameter as a variable for logging in to the respective G Suite customer.
• Update the schema in the synchronization project, if the One Identity Manager schema or target system schema has changed. Then you can add the changes to the mapping.
• Add your own schema types if you want to synchronize data, which does not have schema types in the connector schema.

For more detailed information about configuring synchronization, see the One Identity Manager Target SystemAn instance of a target system in which the employees managed by One Identity Manager have access to network resources. Example: An Active Directory domain X for target system type "Active Directory", a directory Y for target system type "LDAP", a client Z for target system type "SAP R/3".

Configuring Synchronization in G Suite

Configuring Synchronization in G Suite

The synchronization project for initial synchronization provides a workflow for initial loading of target system objects (initial synchronization) and one for provisioning object modifications from the One Identity Manager database to the target system (provisioning). You also require a workflow with synchronization in the direction of the "target system" to use One Identity Manager as the master system for synchronization.

To create a synchronization configuration for synchronizing G Suite

1. Open the synchronization project in the Synchronization EditorOne Identity Manager tool for configuring target system synchronization..

2. Check whether existing mappings can be used for synchronizing the target system. Create new maps if required.
3. Create a new workflow with the workflow wizard.

   This adds a workflow for synchronizing in the direction of the target system.

4. Create a new start up configuration. Use the new workflow to do this.
5. Save the changes.

6. Run a consistency check.

Configuring Synchronization of Customer Environments

The following prerequisites must be fulfilled for all customers that are to be synchronized with the same synchronization project.

Prerequisites

• The customer target systems schema are identical.
• All virtual schema properties used in the mapping must exist in the customer's extended schemas.

To customize a synchronization project for synchronizing another customer

1. Supply a user in the customer with sufficient permissions for accessing the G Suite.

2. Open the synchronization project in the Synchronization EditorOne Identity Manager tool for configuring target system synchronization..

3. Create a new base object for the other customers. Use the wizards to attach a base object.
   • Select the G Suite connector in the wizard and enter the connection parameters. The connection parameters are saved in a special variable set.

     A start up configuration is created, which uses the new variable set.

4. Change other elements of the synchronization configuration as required.
5. Save the changes.

6. Run a consistency check.
