Data Loading Mechanisms

Service Provider does not load LDAP user account information into the repository. Instead, it uses the information already in place in the directory. As a result, there is no need to configure the resource adapter to perform reconciliation; nor is it necessary to perform a load from resource or a load from file operation to populate the account index with end user accounts.

However, if administrator accounts are not already defined within Identity Manager, you might need to populate administrator accounts into the repository. Any data loading mechanism can be used to accomplish this task. See Business Administrator's Guide for more information.
