Use the following procedure to view an existing 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.
