22.4.1 About Scheduled Tasks

In Oracle Identity Manager, metadata is predefined for the default scheduled tasks. New tasks can be added by the user with new metadata, or the existing tasks can be updated to add or update the parameters or other configuration details.

For example, you can configure a reconciliation run using a scheduled task that checks for new information on target systems periodically and replicates the same in Oracle Identity Manager. Each scheduled task contains the following metadata information:

  • Name of the scheduled task

  • Name of the Java class that runs the scheduled task

  • Description

  • Retry

  • (Optional) Parameters that the scheduled task accepts. Each parameter contains the following additional information:

    • Name

    • Data Type

    • Required/ Optional

    • Help Text

    • Encryption
