Functionalities

The basic functionalities that can be done via this connector are listed below.

Identity Integration

Provisioning Integration

Supported as 'IdentitySystem'

OpenLDAP can be chosen as your "Identity System" during installation of product which means it will be leveraged as your primary Identity (LDAP) store.

Prerequisites

Ensure that these prerequisites are satisfied:

• openLDAP Version 2.X is installed, configured, and running.

• An administrator account that can be used to establish a connection and has authority to manage accounts on the connected system.

• Identity Password Management

Connector Details for Identity

Identity Password Management

See Identity Suite Administration documentation for details on password management.

Using the Connected System for Provisioning

Perform these procedures to configure the connector:

• Configuring for Export
• Configuring for Import
• Connector Details for Provisioning

Note: If the number of records to be processed exceeds one thousand, we recommend configuring the workflow to use bulk mode, which lowers the memory consumption of the system by streaming data to files. Because data is streamed for every task, performance of the workflow execution will be decreased due to increased read-write operations. See Workflow and Connectivity Studio documentation for details on how to configure bulk mode.

Configuring for Export

Perform these procedures to configure the connector for data export:

• "Configuring the Export Connector"
• "Configuring the Export Link" 

From the Workflow and Connectivity Studio, select the openLDAP Directory Server UserExport workflow listed under the projects folder.
If a workflow does not already exist, create an export workflow. See Workflow and Connectivity Studio for details on creating export workflows.

GlobalVariable - Select a global variable to use as the dynamic connected system name from the property DynamicConnectedSystem.
   ExecuteGIGAssociatedTaskAsynchronously	Property which controls execution mode for GIG associated tasks. If this property is true and the task connected system has GIG association, task is executed asynchronously. If this property is false, GIG associated tasks will execute asynchronously with a blocking call. This blocking call can result in timeout issues if the task takes more time than the SOAP call timeout. This property is ignored if there is no GIG association or task is executed from Studio.
   ExportDN	Select the distinguished name in the LDAP directory where the connector will begin to locate entries. Entries in this container (default: ou=People,dc=example,dc=com) will be exported based on the type of filter specified. When using this option, do not specify a value for ReadDN. See Step 3. for details on using the Select button that becomes active for this property.
   ExportMode	Select the type of data to export: FullExport - Exports all attributes. DeltaExport - Exports changed, mandatory, or all attributes, depending on the DeltaExportMode property setting.

   MaxResults	Select the maximum number of results to be returned (default: 1000).
   ReadDN	Specify that only the attributes of a single entry are read. For example, to read attributes for a single user, enter the fully qualified distinguished name (DN) of the user entry (e.g., cn=Betty Lane,ou=Sales,dc=example,dc=com) as the ReadDN value. The ExportDN and Filter settings, if specified, are ignored if a ReadDN value is specified. Use the Select button to build the directory and select a specific DN value to read.
   ResultsPerPage	Select the maximum number of results per page when LDAP server paging is used for export (default: 500).
   Scope	Select the number of levels below the ExportDN to begin searching for possible entries to be exported: AllLevels (default) - Searches all entries and all levels below the DN entry specified by ExportDN. OnlyDN - Searches only the DN entry specified by ExportDN. OneLevel - Searches all entries one level below the DN entry specified by ExportDN.
   SortKey	Specify the attribute name to use to sort results. If sorting is required on multiple attributes, list them in a comma delimited format (e.g., cn, sn). Sorting on DN is not supported.
