3 Testing and Troubleshooting

After you deploy the connector, you must test it to ensure that it functions as expected. You can conduct provisioning tests on the connector. This type of test involves using Oracle Identity Manager to provision one of its users or organizations with a target resource. In other words, Oracle Identity Manager is the starting point of the connector and the target resource is the end point.

Testing Provisioning

To test provisioning:

  1. Update the following entry in the runADTest.bat script file. This file is in the OIM_home\xellerate\test\scripts directory.

    set XL_HOME = OIM_home
    
    
  2. Update the config.properties file in the OIM_home\xellerate\test\config directory. In this file, specify values for the attributes of the AD user that is created in Microsoft Active Directory during the provisioning test.

  3. Run the runADTest.bat script. This file is in the following directory:

    OIM_home\xellerate\test\scripts
    
    

    If the script runs without any error, then verify that the user has been created on the Microsoft Active Directory server.

Troubleshooting

Suppose the Use SSL IT resource parameter is set to false. When you provision a Microsoft Active Directory user through Oracle Identity Manager, the password cannot be set and updated by using Oracle Identity Manager. Therefore, if there are any existing password policies in the Microsoft Active Directory server, then you must disable them if the communication is not secured by SSL.

To disable a password policy, perform the following procedure:

  1. Click Start, Settings, and Control Panel.

  2. Double-click Administrative Tools, Local Security Policy, Account Policies, and Password Policy.

  3. Double-click Password must meet complexity requirements.

  4. In the Domain Security Policy Setting dialog box, select Disabled and then click OK.

This limitation is also mentioned in the Known Issues list in Chapter 4.
