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
|
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.
