Delete Connector/Adapter Group Button out of line

Curtis Lusmore 9 years ago updated by anonymous 8 years ago 3

The Delete Connector/Adapter Group button on the Connector/Adapter page is raised slightly above the neighbouring icons. The Delete Adapter Group button also has the wrong tooltip text.

Is Operative transformation should consider a null end date as a time in the future

Matthew Clark 12 years ago updated by anonymous 8 years ago 6

The is operative transformation functions well when a start and end date are specified. However, if the end date is not specified, as is common in many systems with position information, an employee with a start date in the past is considered not operative. The transformation should be updated to consider a null end date DateTime.MaxValue or equivalent.

Identity Broker v4.0 feature requests

Mark Southwell 13 years ago updated by anonymous 8 years ago 4

A few things:

What I feel is missing with IdB is the ability to control it via Event Broker. With the improvements to EvB's scheduling, it would be great to be able to use it to run synchronisations in IdB.

It would be a great thing to export IdB config into a human readable format, or have a parser that can process an export file for inclusion into documentation in a similar fashion to the MIIS documentation toolset in the MIIS resource kit.

Also, please, please, please that XML image node must go!

IB Polling Connector

Nigel Jones 13 years ago updated by anonymous 8 years ago 1

I understand from the doco that "polling " means a delta import from the connected system - true ?
We will need a connector built for DBB CSO and there will be 16,500 students to import from source.
It makes sense to build this new connector with delta import (and full) from connected system meaning "polling"
Which current IB connectors support polling?
Is building a new SQL connector with polling straightforward for the PG?

TIA

Generated Documentation

Bob Bradley 13 years ago updated by anonymous 8 years ago 6

I have developed some generic XSLT stylesheets while working on FIM @ DEEWR to generate documentation for both Event Broker 3.0 and Identity Broker 3.0. These stylesheets are designed as an extension to the standard generated FIM documentation by utilizing the same "Object Visualizer" Powershell/XSL/HTA tool that is freely downloaded from the FIM Microsoft TechNet website (follow references to this tool from the FIM JIRA project).

The latest version of these XSLT documents are available from myself on request.

Attributes available for writeback in Identity Broker for Aurion

Peter Wass 12 years ago in UNIFYBroker/Aurion updated by anonymous 8 years ago 5

I know that earlier versions of the Aurion broker were artificially limited to writing back telephone number only with EMP_UPD_PERS. Has that restriction been lifted? If so, is it all attributes available in the API Function of just a select number?

Selective inclusion of base connector columns in adapters

Bob Bradley 12 years ago updated by anonymous 8 years ago 2

I may have asked for this before, so please delete if this is a duplicate. A common problem is that connectors often include a vast number of columns that you don't want or need surfaced to the adapter layer ... and the only remedy is to delete the attributes from the generated FIM MA schema. This does not prevent the generated LDIF from including these redundant columns, however, and they only come back again if you need to regenerate your FIM MA.

Identity Broker 4.0 Testing Experiences With chris21

Christian Brown 12 years ago updated by anonymous 8 years ago 4

The installation of Identity Broker 4.0 itself was quick and painless. There was a minor issue with the delayed enabling of the "Next" button--it seems the form validation is not re-evaluated until focus is changed to another field.

The creation of the chris21 Connector was based on the chris21 details form. Executing an Import All brought in the ~1200 entities (the addition of a progress bar is a nice feature as it removes the relative arbitrariness of progress seen in the previous version).

Other/minor notes (apologies if these have been documented already):

The required miiserver config file alteration is slightly different to the previous version of Identity Broker.

  • As noted in https://unifysolutions.jira.com/browse/IDB-467; the "contract" attribute of the //configuration/system.serviceModel/client/endpoint node should be "IdentityBrokerLDIFAdapter.ILDIFAdapter".
  • Is there any way the configuration changes could be automated in a future version?

If a dropdown menu is visible, navigation outside of that menu is prevented. (IE8)

Is it possible to also have the text in menu dropdowns hyperlinks, rather than just the icon it corresponds to?

Perhaps an intended feature to distinguish highlighted items, but the icons for the respective Connectors/Adapters enlarge on mouse over.

I was having an issue with Polling Imports so unfortunately was not able to test changes. I will update with these and other experiences upon further testing.

Thanks,

Christian

Mouseover text for adapter group management icons refer to connector group

Christian Brown 12 years ago updated by anonymous 8 years ago 2

The alt/title text which appears on mouse hover for an adapter group operation (e.g. delete, update details) instead refers to that action being performed on a connector group.
