7.1 Managing Synchronization Profiles by Using the Oracle Directory Integration and Provisioning Server Administration Tool

7.1.1 Creating a Profile by Using the Oracle Directory Integration and Provisioning Server Administration Tool

The Oracle Directory Integration and Provisioning Server Administration tool enables you to create a profile in one of two ways:

• By creating a new configuration set entry, then adding a profile to it

• By selecting an existing configuration set entry, then adding a profile to it

To register a directory integration profile:

1. In the navigator pane, select Integration Profile Configuration. The Active Processes box appears in the right pane.

2. From the toolbar, choose Create. The Configuration Sets dialog box appears.

3. In the Configuration Sets dialog box, choose Create. The Integration Profiles dialog box appears. You have two options:

   • Create an integration profile by copying an existing one

     To do this, select the Directory Integration and Provisioning profile you want to copy, then choose Create Like. The Integration Profile dialog box displays the General tab page.

   • Create an integration profile without copying an existing one

     To do this, choose Create New. The Integration Profile dialog box displays the General tab page.

   
   

   See Also: "Integration Profiles" for more information about the Integration Profiles dialog box

   
   

4. In the General tab page, fill in the fields.

   The fields in the General tab page are described in Table A-3.

5. Select the Execution tab and fill in the fields.

   The fields in the Execution tab page are described in Table A-4.

6. Select the Mapping tab and fill in the fields.

   The fields in the Mapping tab page are described in Table A-5.

7. Select the Status tab and fill in the fields. Because this page shows the execution status of the connectors, most of the fields are not editable.

   The fields in the Status tab page are described in Table A-6.

8. When you have entered the information, choose OK. This returns you to the Configuration Sets dialog box, which now lists the integration profile you just created.

9. Choose OK to exit the Configuration Sets dialog box. The profile you created is now registered with Oracle Internet Directory.

7.1.2 Deleting a Profile by Using the Oracle Directory Integration and Provisioning Server Administration Tool

To delete a profile:

1. In the navigator pane, expand Oracle Internet Directory Servers, then directory server instance, then Server Management, Directory Integration Server.

2. Select the configuration set from which to delete the profile. The Integration Profiles tab page appears in the right pane.

3. In the Integration Profiles tab page, select the profile you want to deregister.

4. Choose Delete.

7.1.3 Changing the Synchronization Status Attribute

During synchronization in an export operation, the server constantly updates the synchronization status attribute orcllastappliedchangenumber. In the Oracle Directory Integration and Provisioning Server Administration tool, this field is called OID last applied change number.

To change this attribute by using the Oracle Directory Integration and Provisioning Server Administration tool:

1. Verify that the Oracle directory integration and provisioning server recognizes the disable flag for the profile.

   In the default mode, it can take up to two minutes for the directory integration and provisioning server to recognize this flag. To enable it to recognize this flag sooner, set the refresh interval to a lower value as described in the odisrv section in the Oracle Internet Directory server administration tools chapter of the Oracle Identity Management User Reference.

2. Disable the agent by using the Oracle Directory Integration and Provisioning Server Administration tool.

3. Make the attribute changes.

4. Re-enable the agent after the change.
