You can configure Convergence to use multiple corporate directories, or configure Convergence to use a directory server other than the user group directory server.
To add a corporate directory or to use the directory server other than the user group directory server, set the following configuration parameters:
ab.corpdir.[identifier].ldaphost
ab.corpdir.[identifier].ldapport
ab.corpdir.[identifier].ldapbinddn
ab.corpdir.[identifier].ldapbindcred
The following example has the configuration parameters settings:
iwcadmin -o ab.corpdir.[default].ldaphost -v host.example.com iwcadmin -o ab.corpdir.[default].ldapport -v 400 iwcadmin -o ab.corpdir.[default].ldapbinddn -v "cn=Directory Manager" iwcadmin -o ab.corpdir.[default].ldapbindcred -v xyzxyz
The corporate directory can be configured with multiple directory servers. In this example default is used to identify corporate directory configuration for host.example.com. For a single corporate directory configuration, you must use default as the identifier.
To configure multiple corporate address books, set following parameters:
ab.corpdir.[identifier].ldaphost ab.corpdir.[identifier].ldapport ab.corpdir.[identifier].ldapbinddn ab.corpdir.[identifier].ldapbindcred ab.corpdir.[identifier].urlmatch ab.corpdir.[identifier].searchattr ab.corpdir.[identifier].displayname
Note:
The value for the urlmatch configuration parameter must be unique.To search from Root: ldap://corp-directory1
To search from dn ou=people,o=ab.org: ldap://somehost:390/ou=people,o=ab.org
Format for urlmatch is ldap://unique_value or ldap://host:port/DN. For example:
-o ab.corpdir.[corpdir1].ldaphost -v budgie.india.example.com -o ab.corpdir.[corpdir1].ldapport -v 389 -o ab.corpdir.[corpdir1].ldapbinddn -v "cn=Directory Manager" -o ab.corpdir.[corpdir1].ldapbindcred -v netscape -o ab.corpdir.[corpdir1].urlmatch -v ldap://corpdir1 -o ab.corpdir.[corpdir1].searchattr -v entry/displayname,@uid -o ab.corpdir.[corpdir1].lookthrulimit -v 3000 -o ab.corpdir.[corpdir1].displayname -v "Second Corporate Book"
Restart the Oracle certified application Server.
Note:
In some cases, the corporate directories might not display. The workaround is to set the urlmatch configuration parameter, beginning with the default URL match value (ldap://corpdirectory). For example, for an organization adding multiple address books from three different entities: CommerceDept, IntlTradeDiv, and DivofEmployment, the urlmatch is set to the following:ab.corpdir.[CommerceDept].urlmatch = ldap://corpdirectorycommerce \\ /ou=People,ou=CommerceDepartment,o=cat.example.gov,dc=divemp,dc=gov ab.corpdir.[IntlTradeDiv].urlmatch = ldap://corpdirectoryitd \\ /ou=People,ou=ITD,ou=CommerceDepartment,o=cat.example.gov,dc=divemp,dc=gov ab.corpdir.[DivofEmployment].urlmatch = ldap://corpdirectorydivemp \\ /ou=People,ou=DivofEmployment,ou=CommerceDept,o=cat.example.gov,dc=divemp,dc=gov
Even though the Corporate Directories are properly set up and work as designed, they may display errors in the iwc.log or the Firebug log.
