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.

The following table contains short descriptions of the process components.
NOTE: Additional process components may be available depending on which modules are installed.
Table 87: Short descriptions of process components
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 tasks of the process components require iCacls to edit permissions. |
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 PowerShell. Version 2.0 of PowerShell must be installed. |
PowershellComponentNet4 |
This process is used for calling a .NET 4 PowerShell. A version of 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. |
Detailed information about this topic
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
-
In the Designer, select the Process Orchestration > Process components category.
-
In the Process Component Editor, select the process component.
-
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.
-
Save the changes.
