Used to validate the employee ID during user provisioning in PeopleSoft User Management
Default value: |
After you specify values for these IT resource parameters, go to Step 9 of the procedure to import connector XML files.
Configuring reconciliation involves the following steps:
Note: Perform this step of the procedure only if you want to configure trusted source reconciliation. Only one connector can be configured for trusted source reconciliation. If you import thePSFTBaseXellerateUser.xml file while you have another trusted source configured, then both connector reconciliations would stop working.
Refer to Oracle Identity Manager Connector Framework Guide for conceptual information about reconciliation configurations. |
To configure trusted source reconciliation, you must first import the XML file for trusted source reconciliation as follows:
Open the Oracle Identity Manager Administrative and User Console.
Click the Deployment Management link on the left navigation bar.
Click the Import link under Deployment Management. A dialog box for locating files is displayed.
Locate and open the PSFTBaseXellerateUser.xml
file, which is in the OIM_home
\xlclient
directory. Details of this XML file are shown on the File Preview page.
Click Add File. The Substitutions page is displayed.
Click Next. The Confirmation page is displayed.
Click Import.
In the message that is displayed, click Import to confirm that you want to import the XML file and then click OK.
Then, set the value of the IsTrusted
reconciliation scheduled task attribute to Yes
while performing the procedure described in the following section.
To create the scheduled tasks for lookup fields and user reconciliations:
Open the Oracle Identity Manager Design Console.
Expand the Xellerate Administration folder.
Select Task Scheduler.
Click Find. The details of the predefined scheduled tasks are displayed on two different tabs.
Enter a number in the Max Retries field. This number represents the number of times Oracle Identity Manager must attempt to complete the task before assigning the ERROR status to the task.
Ensure that the Disabled and Stop Execution check boxes are not selected.
In the Start region, double-click the Start Time field. From the date-time editor that is displayed, select the date and time at which you want the task to run.
To set the task to run only once, select the Once option in the Interval region.
Provide values for the attributes of the scheduled task. Refer to the "Specifying Values for the Scheduled Task Attributes" section for information about the values to be specified.
Click Save. The scheduled task is created. The INACTIVE status is displayed in the Status field, because the task is not currently running. The task is run at the date and time that you set in Step 7.
Repeat Steps 5 through 10 to create the second scheduled task.
After you create both scheduled tasks, proceed to the "Step 8: Compiling Adapters" section.
This section provides information about the values to be specified for the following scheduled tasks:
You must specify values for the following attributes of the lookup fields reconciliation scheduled task.
Note: Attribute values are predefined in the connector XML file that you import. Specify values only for those attributes that you want to change. |
Attribute | Description |
---|---|

Name of the resource object
Default value: |
After you specify values for these task attributes, go to Step 10 of the procedure to create scheduled tasks.
You must specify values for the following attributes of the user reconciliation scheduled task.
Note: Attribute values are predefined in the connector XML file that you import. Specify values only for those attributes that you want to change. |
Attribute | Description |
---|---|
MultiValueSeperator |
## is the multivalue separator in the flat file that is used for bulk reconciliation |
ServerName |
Name of the IT resource instance
Default value: |
IsTrusted |

The value can be |
XellerateOrganization |
Default name of the Oracle Identity Manager organization
This value is used to create the Xellerate User in trusted mode. |
FolderPath |
Directory path on the Oracle Identity Manager server where the reconciliation lookup .txt file is stored |
TargetSystem |
Name of the resource object
Default value: |
After you specify values for these task attributes, go to Step 10 of the procedure to create scheduled tasks.
The following adapters are imported into Oracle Identity Manager when you import the connector XML file:
adpPSFTCREATEUSER
adpPSFTUPDATEUSER
adpPSFTRESETPASSWORD
adpPSFTUNLOCKUSER
adpPSFTLOCKUSER
adpPSFTUPDATEUSEREMPID
adpPSFTADDORDELETEROLE
adpPSFTADDORDELETEEMAIL
(PeopleTools 8.4x only)
You must compile these adapters before you can use them to provision accounts on the target system.
To compile adapters by using the Adapter Manager form:
Open the Adapter Manager form.
To compile all the adapters that you import into the current database, select the Compile All option.
To compile multiple (but not all) adapters, select the adapters you want to compile. Then, select the Compile Selected option.
Click Start. Oracle Identity Manager compiles the selected adapters.
If Oracle Identity Manager is installed in a clustered environment, then copy the compiled adapters from the OIM_home
\xellerate\Adapter
directory to the same directory on each of the other nodes of the cluster. If required, overwrite the adapter files on the other nodes. Then, restart each node.
To view detailed information about an adapter:
Highlight the adapter in the Adapter Manager form.
Double-click the row header of the adapter, or right-click the adapter.
Select Launch Adapter from the shortcut menu that is displayed. Details of the adapter are displayed.
Note: Perform this procedure only if you want to configure the connector for multiple installations of PeopleSoft User Management. Refer to Oracle Identity Manager Design Console Guide for detailed instructions on performing each step of this procedure. |
To configure the connector for multiple installations of the target system:
Create and configure one resource object for each target system installation.
The Resource Objects form is in the Resource Management folder. The PSFTBase
resource object is created when you import the connector XML file. You can use this resource object as the template for creating the remaining resource objects.
Create and configure one IT resource for each resource object.
The IT Resources form is in the Resource Management folder. The PSFT Base Server
IT resource is created when you import the connector XML file. You can use this IT resource as the template for creating the remaining IT resources, of the same resource type.
Design one process form for each resource object.
The Form Designer form is in the Development Tools folder. The following process forms are created when you import the connector XML file:
UD_PSFT_BAS
(main form)
UD_PSROLES
and UD_PS_EMAIL
(child forms for PeopleTools 8.4x only)
You can use these process forms as templates for creating the remaining process forms.
Create and configure one process definition for each resource object.
The Process Definition form is in the Process Management folder. The PSFTBase
process definition is created when you import the connector XML file. You can use this process definition as the template for creating the remaining process definitions.
While creating process definitions for each target system installation, the following steps that you must perform are specific to the creation of each process definition:
From the Object Name lookup field, select the resource object that you create in Step 1.
From the Table Name lookup field, select the process form that you create in Step 3.
While mapping the adapter variables for the IT Resource data type, ensure that you select the IT resource that you create in Step 2 from the Qualifier list.
Configure reconciliation for each target system installation. Refer to the "Step 7: Configuring Reconciliation" section for instructions. Note that only the values of the following attributes are to be changed for each reconciliation scheduled task:
TargetSystem
ServerName
IsTrusted
Set the IsTrusted
attribute to Yes
for the PeopleSoft User Management installation that you want to designate as a trusted source. You can designate either a single or multiple installations of PeopleSoft User Management as the trusted source. For the remaining PeopleSoft User Management installations, set this attribute to No
.
If required, modify the fields to be reconciled for the Xellerate User resource object.
Additional Steps for Configuring Change-Based Reconciliation
For change-based reconciliation, you must perform the procedure described in the "Step 4: Configuring the Target System" section and in the "Step 5: Configuring the PeopleSoft Listener Web Service for Change-Based Reconciliation" section.
The following are actions that you must perform differently from the procedure described in these sections:
In Step 4.b of the "Configuring PeopleSoft Enterprise Portal on PeopleTools 8.22" section:
Note: Perform this step only if you use PeopleTools 8.22. |
Cange the Java command in the publish.bat
file as shown in the following example:
java Com.thortech.xl.Integration.msgpublisher.PeopleSoftPublisher "http://host:port/peopleSoftUserMgmt1/do/peopleSoftAction" "C:/test/file" USR_MGMT_MSG >> c:/test/consolelog.log
Similarly, change the name of the Web application for each WAR file that you create.
In Step 7 of the procedure to create the XL_NODE
node, given in the "Configuring PeopleSoft Enterprise Portal on PeopleTools 8.4x" section:
Note: Perform this step only if you use PeopleTools 8.4x. |
Change the name of the application in the URL as shown in the following example:
http://computer_name:port/peopleSoftUserMgmt1/do/peopleSoftAction
Similarly, change the name of the Web application in the URL for each WAR file that you create.
In the "Step 5: Configuring the PeopleSoft Listener Web Service for Change-Based Reconciliation" section:
In Step 3, the value that you specify for the ObjectName parameter in the xlsession.properties
file must be the name of the resource object that you create.
In Step 7, specify a different file name in the command that you use to re-create the WAR file. For example:
jar –cvf peopleSoftUserMgmt1.war
Similarly, change the name of the WAR file for each target system installation
