Attestations are run when the schedule assigned to an attestation policy is enabled. You can disabled attestation policies to prevent attestation cases being created for individual attestation policies.

IMPORTANT: All associated attestation cases are deleted. To be able to trace the changes later, configure how the data is logged. For more information, see Deleting attestation cases and the One Identity Manager Configuration Guide.

TIP: Numerous default attestation policies are supplied with One Identity Manager. Check which of the default attestation policies are relevant for your data situation when you set up your database. Disable all unnecessary attestation policies.

Sample attestation

Sample attestation provides a way to limit the set of attestation objects for an attestation. For example, this can be useful if attesting everyone in an audit would take too long. The sample data can either be generated automatically or compiled manually.

The One Identity Manager provides a standard sample that is used to attest memberships in system entitlements after organizational changes.
