Viewing a Mapping (BUI)

Use the following procedure to view an existing mapping.

1. Go to Configuration > Services > Identity Mapping > Show Mappings.
2. Choose either Windows or UNIX for the platform from which the identity is mapped.
3. Enter the Windows or UNIX identity information.
   • If you selected Windows, type the Windows domain and name of the user.
   • If you selected UNIX, choose either User or Group for the type, and type the entity name.
4. Click SHOW MAPPING.

   The identity user or group properties are displayed. The mapping source and backend origin are also displayed:

   Source

   • New mapping - The mapping was newly created and was neither retrieved from the cache nor predefined.

   • Cached mapping - The mapping was retrieved from the cache, where mappings are stored for 10 minutes after they are requested.

   • Hard coded mapping - The mapping is predefined and fixed on the appliance. These mappings were created for default UNIX and Windows identities.

   • Algorithmic mapping - A non-ephemeral UNIX UID or GID could not be mapped by name, so it was mapped to an algorithmically generated SID.

   Backend

   • AD Directory - This is a directory-based mapping that was created using annotations in the Active Directory.

   • Native LDAP Directory - This is a directory-based mapping that was created using annotations in the LDAP directory.

   • IDMU - The mapping was created using the Windows feature Identity Management for UNIX.

   • Name rule - The mapping was created using a name rule.

   • Ephemeral - Since there was no equivalent identity at the time the mapping was created, the system created a temporary one using an ephemeral UID or GID.

   • Local SID - A non-ephemeral UNIX UID or GID could not be mapped by name, so it was mapped to an algorithmically generated local SID.

   • Well-known mapping - The mapping uses a "well-known SID." These Windows SIDs identify generic users or generic groups. Their values remain constant across all operating systems.
