The connectors will work as two separate targets. If you have a target system with different installations or schema or data, such as a LDAP server for internal users and another LDAP server for external, contractors, and consumers, then you need to clone the connector. The target works as a single resource object. You need to create multiple IT resources for the instances. If you have a target system with multiple instances, and data is either same or shared or replicated, such as in Microsoft Exchange or Active Directory connectors, then you do not need to clone the connector. You might have more than one installation of a target system. See Connector Documentation for detailed information about changes required in connector objects. An enhancement of this type requires changes to be made in multiple connector objects, such as Resource Object, Process Definition, and Process Form. For example, you might add new attributes for reconciliation and provisioning with the target system.
#FUTURE THE WIZRD DOC INSTALL#
However, as explained later in this chapter, the Install Connectors feature is the recommended approach.Īfter deployment, you might customize a connector to meet business requirements that are not addressed by the default configuration of the connector. The Deployment Manager offers an alternative approach to import definitions of the objects that constitute a connector.
#FUTURE THE WIZRD DOC HOW TO#
"Identity Connector Framework" in the Oracle Fusion Middleware Developer's Guide for Oracle Identity Manager for information about the Identity Connector Framework and how to use it to create an identity connector. Connector documentation is available on the Oracle Web site at the following URL:
#FUTURE THE WIZRD DOC CODE#
Oracle Identity Manager Connector documentation for information about copying connector files and external code files to destination directories on Oracle Identity Manager and target system host computers. Integration libraries that enable adapters to perform actions on the target systemįor some target systems, third-party integration libraries might be required to enable communication or specific functionality with the target systems. Objects defined in Oracle Identity Manager, such as an IT resource, resource object, provisioning process and process tasks, process form and child forms, adapters and adapter tasks, lookup definitions, reconciliation rules, and scheduled tasks
You can develop custom connectors for your own resources.Ī connector consists of the following artifacts:īinaries (JAR and DLL files) that contain the connector code
Oracle provides connectors for common enterprise resources. Oracle Identity Manager server uses connectors to perform operations on target systems. A connector enables exchange of user data between Oracle Identity Manager and a specific resource or target system. Oracle Identity Manager connectors are the recommended solution for integration between Oracle Identity Manager and resources that store and use user data. Oracle Identity Manager offers various solutions for integration with different kinds of IT-based resources in an organization.
