Oracle Identity Manager automates access rights management, security, and provisioning of IT resources. Oracle Identity Manager connectors are used to integrate Oracle Identity Manager with third-party applications. The connector for Telnet is used to integrate Oracle Identity Manager with Telnet.
Note:
Oracle Identity Manager connectors were referred to as resource adapters prior to the acquisition of Thor Technologies by Oracle.This chapter contains the following sections:
The following table lists the functions that are available with this connector.
| Function | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Create User | Provisioning | Creates a user in UNIX server with the input values provided
|
| Delete User | Provisioning | Deletes a provisioned user in UNIX server |
| Update User UID | Provisioning | Updates the configuration of a user in UNIX server according to a change in the User UID attribute |
| Update User Group | Provisioning | Updates the configuration of a user in UNIX server according to a change in the Group attribute |
| Update User Password Change Time | Provisioning | Updates the configuration of a user in UNIX server according to a change in the Password Change Time attribute |
| Update Shell | Provisioning | Updates the configuration of a user in UNIX server according to a change in the Shell attribute |
| Update Home Directory | Provisioning | Updates the configuration of a user in UNIX server according to a change in the Home Directory attribute |
| Update User Account Expiration Date | Provisioning | Updates the configuration of a user in UNIX server according to a change in the Account Expiration Date attribute |
| Update User GECOS | Provisioning | Updates the configuration of a user in UNIX server according to a change in the GECOS attribute |
| Set Password | Provisioning | Updates the configuration of a user in UNIX server according to a change in the Password attribute |
| Update Secondary Group Name | Provisioning | Updates the configuration of a user in UNIX server according to a change in the Secondary Group Name attribute
Do not update the User Login field when you update the Secondary Group Names value. On Solaris, the value of the Secondary Group Names field must always be different from the value of the Primary Group Name field. |
| Update Inactive Days | Provisioning | Updates the configuration of a user in UNIX server for attribute: Update Inactive Days. This function does not work on AIX 5.2 |
| Update User Login | Provisioning | Updates the configuration of a user in UNIX server according to a change in the User Login attribute
Do not update the Secondary Group Names field when you update the User Login field. On AIX 5.2, if the User GECOS value contains spaces, then this function does not work. |
| Disable User | Provisioning | Disables an existing user in UNIX server |
| Enable User | Provisioning | Enables a disabled existing user in UNIX server
Before running this function, the Set Password function must be run. This function is not supported on an HP-UX (trusted) server. |
| Trusted Reconciliation for User | Reconciliation | Creates Xellerate User accounts with respect to the reconciled user accounts from the UNIX server |
| Create User | Reconciliation | Reconciles user accounts from the UNIX server |
| Update User | Reconciliation | Updates the attributes of previously reconciled user accounts from the UNIX server |
The reconciliation module extracts the following elements from the target system to construct reconciliation event records:
User Login
User UID
Primary Group Name
Default Shell
Home Directory
GECOS
Password Change Time
Account Expiry Date
Note:
For a trusted configuration (such as HP-UX), the Password Change Time and Account Expiry Date fields would not be reconciled.The following fields are provisioned:
User Login
Password
Secondary Group Names
User UID
Primary Group Name
Default Shell
GECOS
Home Directory
Account Expiry Date
Password Change Time
Create Home Directory
Skeleton Directory
Inactive Days
