Process plan properties

Table 86: Process plan properties
Property Meaning

Name

Name of the process plan. Translate the given text using the button.

Table

Base object (table) for which the process plan will run.

Event

Event to be run. All base object events are listed for new process plans.

Activation schedule

Schedule that contains the activation times for the process plan.

NOTE: Create a new schedule using next to the menu.

For detailed information about schedules, see the One Identity Manager Operational Guide.

Max. processing time

Enter the number of hours after which the process plan should automatically quit.

Description

Enter a detailed description of the process plan.

Condition

Overview of process components

Process components and their process tasks form a framework that all process steps can be based on. The tables Jobcomponent, JobTask, and Jobparameter define the complete range of One Identity Manager’s own process components and process task with the associated parameters.

Process tasks are used to carry out single basic jobs at system level, for example, adding directories. A process component consists of one or more process tasks and its parameters.

When a process is created, the parameter templates for the process task are copied and entered in the process step. This means that every process step that uses this process task can pass other parameter values. The original is not altered.

NOTE:The information available for the process components and their process tasks is added when the schema is installed and cannot be edited.

To obtain a complete overview of process components and their process tasks and parameters

  • In the Designer, select the Documentation > System configuration reports category and the Process components report.

To display individual process components and their process tasks and parameters

  • In the Designer, select the Process Orchestration > Process components category.

The following table contains short descriptions of the process components.

NOTE: Additional process components may be available depending on which modules are installed.

Component Description

AutoUpdateComponent

This process component maps the One Identity Manager Service built-in-tasks.

CommandComponent

This process component runs any command.

DelayComponent

This process component controls the start time of the following process steps.

FileComponent

This process component creates, deletes, copies, and modifies file and directories and also their access permissions.

The RSync program is a prerequisite for using the process component on Linux operating systems.

Under Windows, some of the process components' process functions required the program XCalcs to edit permissions. You can find this in the your server installation resource kit.

FtpComponent

This process component can transfer file by FTP.

HandleObjectComponent

This process component runs default and custom events for database objects. Each assigned default process is generated as in the front-ends. The component also makes it possible to initiate so called CustomEvents for triggering object related generation of a special process.

LogComponent

This process component is used to log messages, for example, in the result log.

MailComponent

This process component can send emails.

PowerShellComponent

This process is used for calling Windows PowerShell. Version 2.0 of Windows PowerShell must be installed.

PowershellComponentNet4

This process is used for calling a .NET 4 Windows PowerShell. A version of Windows PowerShell later than 2.0 must be installed.

ProjectorComponent

This process component contains tasks for synchronizing and provisioning data with the One Identity Manager database.

ReportComponent

This process component can create reports and export them in various file formats.

ScriptComponent

This process component run the scripts from the assemblies.

SFtpComponent

This process component can transfer files by SFTP.

SQLComponent

This process component runs SQL queries and can be used to determine the number of data records and the existence of data records.

ZipComponent

This process component creates or unpacks ZIP files.

Displaying and editing process task exe types

The exe type of a process task defines whether processing takes place within the One Identity Manager Service or in an external process.

To display process task exe types of a process component

  • In the Designer, select the Process Orchestration > Process components > <process component> category.

    On the process component's overview form, you can see all the process tasks with their exe types.

To change the exe type of a process task

  1. In the Designer, select the Process Orchestration > Process components category.

  2. In the Process Component Editor, select the process component.

  3. Select a process task and in the edit view on the Properties tab, adjust the exe type value.

    Permitted values are:

    • Internal: Runs internally in the One Identity Manager Service.

    • External: Runs externally as its own process.

    • External32: Runs externally as its own 32-bit process.

  4. Save the changes.

Changing the maximum number of instances for process tasks and process components

The One Identity Manager Service handles parallelization of processes by using the maximum number of instances allowed for process tasks and process components.

To change the maximum number of instances of a process task

  1. In the Designer, select the Process Orchestration > Process components category.

  2. In the Process Component Editor, select the process component.

  3. Select a process task and in the edit view on the Properties tab, adjust the Max instances value to the maximum number instances.

    Permitted values are:

    • -1: All instances of this process task are processed sequentially. Other process task instances of the same process component are not run simultaneously.

    • 0: The maximum number of instances given for the process component is used.

    • 1 or greater: The exact number of instances of a process task, which are processed simultaneously.

  4. Save the changes.

  1. In the Designer, select the Process Orchestration > Process components category.

    Permitted values are:

    • -1: All instances of this process component are processed sequentially.

      It must be ensured that these components are run exclusively on one Job server, which means no other queue can exist to process these components.

    • 0: All instances of this process component can be processed simultaneously.

    • 1 or greater: The exact number of instances of a process component, which are processed simultaneously.

    NOTE: The value is only used if the maximum number of instances of a process task is set to 0. Otherwise, the value applies that is set for the process task.

  3. Save the changes.
