Loading Active Directory Accounts

Use the following steps as a guideline for using reconciliation to load Active Directory accounts into Waveset.

To Load Active Directory Users

1. From the Resources page in the Administrator Interface, select the Windows 2000/ Active Directory resource from the New Resource pull-down menu. Then configure the adapter.

   Make sure you do not delete the accountId or fullname Waveset user attribute from schema map. Also make sure the identity template is correct. See the online help and the Resource Reference for more information about configuring the adapter.

2. (Optional) Edit the account and password policies as desired. See Setting Account ID and Password Policies for more information.

3. (Optional) Create a user form that will be used for reconciliation. See Assigning User Forms for more information.

4. (Optional) Create an Waveset user for performing data loading. Assign the user form created in the previous step to the user.

5. Configure the reconciliation policy for the resource. On the first resource, the correlation rule is not important, and the confirmation rule is not used when creating Waveset users. Since this is the first resource, you probably want to assign the UNMATCHED situation to the value “Create new Waveset user based on resource account.”

6. If you created a user to perform data loading, log in as that user. This step is not necessary for reconciliation, but would be for Load from File, Load from Resource, or Bulk actions.

7. Reconcile the Active Directory resource.
