4 Testing and Troubleshooting

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.

Before you use the testing utility, copy the files in the test directory on the installation media to the OIM_HOME/xellerate/XLIntegrations/SSH directory.

Set the required values in the config.properties file. This file is in the OIM_HOME/xellerate/XLIntegrations/SSH/config/config.properties directory.

Use the information in the following table to modify the default attributes of the config.properties file.

Attribute Description Default/Sample Value
hostname IP address of the target server on which user provisioning is to be performed 10.1.1.114
shellPrompt Default shell prompt of the target server:

# for Solaris, Linux, and HP-UX

$ for AIX

#
port Port at which the SSH server is listening 22
osType Operating system type of the UNIX server

Accepted values are SOLARIS, LINUX, HP-UX, and AIX.

SOLARIS
adminpassword Admin user password password1
admin UNIX server administrator credentials for the SSH server root
action Action to be tested

The value can be one of the following:

  • CONNECT

  • CREATE

  • CHANGEPASSWORD

  • MODIFY

  • DELETE

  • DISABLE

  • ENABLE

  • ENABLETRUSTED (only for HP-UX trusted mode)

CREATE
userName User attribute jdoe
privateKey Key for Public Key authentication The value can be blank, or it can be the name and path of the private key file.
sudoFlag Sudo Admin Mode flag The value is YES for the SUDO Admin mode. It must be NO if the SUDO Admin mode is not used.
Max Retries Number of times that the UNIX SSH connector should retry connecting to the target server if the connection fails 2
Delay Delay (in milliseconds) before the connector attempts to retry connecting to the target system, in case the connection fails 2000
Timeout Value of the timeout (in milliseconds) for the connection to the target server 10000
passwdMirrorFilePath This parameter is used to specify the passwd mirror file path for reconciliation. /etc/passwd1
shadowMirrorFilePath This parameter is used to specify the shadow mirror file path for reconciliation. /etc/shadow1
targetDateFormat This parameter is used to specify the date format of the target UNIX computer. MMddhhmmyy

After you specify values in the config.properties file, run the following script:

For UNIX:

OIM_HOME/xellerate/XLIntegrations/SSH/scripts/SSH.sh

For Microsoft Windows:

OIM_HOME\xellerate\XLIntegrations\SSH\scripts\SSH.bat
