The following are known issues associated with this release of the connector:
The connection pool implementation is not feasible because of current Oracle Identity Manager architecture support.
Creation of a user on the SAP system involves running the Create User and Change Password use cases in a sequence. This sequence makes three RFC calls to the SAP system. The Create User RFC and Change Password RFC functions commit the transaction explicitly at the end of the call. The commit is enforced by the SAP architecture. This architecture constraint of SAP makes transaction maintenance between Create User and Change Password infeasible.
When a user is created, the password specified is not allocated to the user. Later, the SAP system requires the user to specify the password again, which is assigned to the user at this stage. To eliminate the occurrence of this event, when a new user is created, the user is assigned a dummy password and after user creation the Change Password event is called automatically. The password changes from the dummy password to the one entered by the user in the SAP User form in Oracle Identity Manager. This process is transparent to the end user.
