Sun Identity Manager 8.1 Resources Reference

Resource Actions

The Scripted Gateway adapter allows you to create a set of actions that perform basic provisioning functions such as creating, updating, deleting, and retrieving user accounts. Each of these actions is defined in a Windows batch file.

The adapter supports the following provisioning actions:

Action

Purpose

Required?

create 

Creates a new user. 

No, but if not provided, users cannot be created. 

delete 

Deletes an existing user. 

No, but if not provided, users cannot be deleted. 

getAllUsers 

Gets information about all users on the resource 

Yes. 

getUser 

Fetches attributes for an existing user. 

Yes. 

update 

Updates attributes for an existing user. 

No, but if not provided, users cannot be updated. 

The $WSHOME/sample/ScriptedGateway directory contains a set of sample resource action definitions that could be used to provision users to a theoretical gateway script-based host application. You must customize these definitions to your environment.

For general information about resource actions, see Chapter 50, Adding Actions to Resources.
