User mapping information

This section shows a possible mapping between a user account in IBM i and the standard One Identity Manager database table called LDAPAccount. User and group information on the IBM i is stored in the same container, so a filter needs to be set up to tell these apart.

  • When creating the user mapping, add a new schema class as follows.

    Table 3: Schema class settings

    Property

    Value

    Schema type

    os400-usprf

    Display name

    user_os400_usrprf

    Class name

    user_os400_usrprf

    Select objects: Condition

    os400_gid='*NONE'

    Select objects: Ignore case

    Activated

  • Map the LDAPAccount (all) schema class to this new schema class, user_os400_usrprf, for this user mapping.

For more detailed information about setting up mappings, see the One Identity Manager Target System Synchronization Reference Guide.
