3 Testing the Connector

After you deploy the connector, you must test it to ensure that it functions as expected. This chapter discusses procedure to test connector.

You can use the testing utility to identify the cause of problems associated with connecting to the target system and performing basic operations on the target system

To use the utility:

1. Specify the required values in the global.properties file. This file is in the OIM_home\Xellerate\JDE 9.0.3\test directory. The following table describes the sections of this file in which you must provide information for runing the tests.

   Section	Description
   Server Information	Connection parameters required to connect to the target system
   Create User Parameter	Field information required to create or delete a user profile
   Modify User Parameter	Field information required to modify a user profile
   Password Reset	Field information required to reset a password for a user profile
   Modify Enable / Disable User Parameters	Field information required to enable or disable a user profile
   Add Role to User Parameters	Field information required add a role to a user profile
   Remove Role from User Parameters	Field information required remove a role from a user profile
   Reconcile Users	The From Date timestamp The To Date is set to the current date and time by default.

   
   

2. Add all the JAR files mentioned in the "Step 2: Copying the Connector Files and External Code" section to the CLASSPATH environment variable.

   Add all the files in the OIM_home\Xellerate\JDE9.0.3\Properties directory to the CLASSPATH environment variable.

3. In the log.properties file in the same directory:

   1. In the following parameter, set the path of the directory in which you want to create the log files:

      log4j.appender.logfile.File=log_file_path
      
      

      Here, log_file_path is the path of the directory in which you want to create the log file.

   2. Specify any one of the following log levels:

      • DEBUG

      • INFO

      • WARN

      • ERROR

      • FATAL

      For example, if the log level for DEBUG is to be enabled, then you must add the following entry file:

      log4j.logger.ADAPTERS.ACTIVEDIRECTORY=DEBUG
      
      

4. Create an ASCII-format copy of the global.properties file as follows:

   1. In a command window, change to the following directory:

      OIM_home\Xellerate\JDE9.0.3\test
      
      

   2. Enter the following command:

      native2ascii global.properties troubleshoot.properties
      
      

      The troubleshoot.properties file is created when you run the native2ascii command. The contents of this file are an ASCII-format copy of the contents of the global.properties file.

5. Perform the following tests:

   • Enter the following command to create a user:

     java -DTproperties=OIM_home/test/troubleShoot.properties -Dlog4j.configuration=file:/OIM_home/test/log.properties TroubleShootUtility C
     
     

   • Enter the following command to delete a user:

     java -DTproperties=OIM_home/test/troubleShoot.properties -Dlog4j.configuration=file:/OIM_home/test/log.properties TroubleShootUtility D
     
     

   • Enter the following command to modify a user:

     java -DTproperties=OIM_home/test/troubleShoot.properties -Dlog4j.configuration=file:/OIM_home/test/log.properties TroubleShootUtility M
     
     

   • Enter the following command to reset the password of a user:

     java -DTproperties=OIM_home/test/troubleShoot.properties -Dlog4j.configuration=file:/OIM_home/test/log.properties TroubleShootUtility P
     
     

   • Enter the following command to enable and disable a user:

     java -DTproperties=OIM_home/test/troubleShoot.properties -Dlog4j.configuration=file:/OIM_home/test/log.properties TroubleShootUtility ED
     
     

   • Enter the following command to add a role to user:

     java -DTproperties=OIM_home/test/troubleShoot.properties -Dlog4j.configuration=file:/OIM_home/test/log.properties TroubleShootUtility AUR
     
     

   • Enter the following command to remove a role from user:

     java -DTproperties=OIM_home/test/troubleShoot.properties -Dlog4j.configuration=file:/OIM_home/test/log.properties TroubleShootUtility RUR
     
     

   • Enter the following command to test reconcile users:

     java -DTproperties=OIM_home/test/troubleShoot.properties -Dlog4j.configuration=file:/OIM_home/test/log.properties TroubleShootUtility R
