5 Known Issues

The following are known issues associated with this release of the connector:

  • Bug 7656117

    The following issue is observed if you are using version 6.5 of Novell GroupWise as the target system:

    While performing the Add User To Distribution List provisioning operation, Remote Manager stops functioning if the length of the distinguished name of the distribution list is more than 97 characters.

    If the length of the Distribution List DN process form field is more than 64 characters, then you cannot create the distribution list.

    To overcome this issue, use version 7.0 of Novell GroupWise with SP3 as the target system.

  • Bug 8547806

    During the Add User To Distribution List provisioning operation, the Add User to Distribution List task is completed successfully. If you perform the Add User To Distribution List provisioning operation again for the same target system user, then the status of the Add User To Distribution List task is rejected. However, the child form displays the name of the distribution list twice.

    Now, if you perform the Remove User From Distribution List provisioning operation, then the target system user is successfully removed from the distribution list. However, the child form still displays the name of the distribution list. If you perform the Remove User From Distribution List provisioning operation again, then (although the user was successfully removed from the distribution list) the Remove User from Distribution List task is completed successfully.

    This issue is because of a GroupWise API. The same issue has been mentioned in the administrative Web site of Novell:

  • Bug 8575556

    If the distribution list or nickname list is empty, then reconciliation is performed with the [None] string value as the Distribution List and Nick Name List values in Oracle Identity Manager.

The following is a limitation of the target system:

Versions 6.5 and 7 of Novell GroupWise do not support the entry of non-ASCII characters. Therefore, you cannot transfer non-ASCII data through the connector. However, error messages and response codes would be displayed in Oracle Identity Manager in the language corresponding to the language that you select.
