Customizing data synchronization for a custom target system
You can make special adjustments for synchronizing data between the One Identity Manager database and target system environment. The following information is displayed for a data synchronization:
Table 20: Data synchronization master data
|
synchronization server |
Unique server ID. Select the server to handle the processes for the target system from the list. This synchronization server is used, for example, when provisioning is done through synchronization by script. |
|
No write operations |
Use this option to prevent changes to target system objects from the One Identity Manager database being provisioned in the target system. |

Specifying categories for inheriting groups
In One Identity Manager, groups can be selectively inherited by user accounts. For this purpose, the groups and the user accounts are divided into categories. The categories can be freely selected and are specified using a mapping rule. Each category is given a specific position within the template. The template contains two tables; the user account table and the group table. Use the user account table to specify categories for target system dependent user accounts. In the group table enter your categories for the target system-dependent groups. Each table contains the Position 1 to Position 31 category positions.
Prerequisites
