Operation

Description

Undo Change Location

Returns an item to its previous status.

Disconnect eDir-to-eDir

(Viewable when you select an eDir-to-eDir application) Separates the eDir-to-eDir application into two eDirectory drivers.

Straighten Connection

Straightens a driver connection line. If a line is not within a few degrees of being horizontal or vertical, this option is dimmed.

Distribute

Evenly distributes applications vertically or horizontally. Press Ctrl, select the items that you want to distribute, then select a pattern.

Align

Aligns the selected objects horizontally and/or vertically. For more information, see Table E-6.

Change to eDirectory Tree

(Viewable when you select an eDirectory application.) Runs the Driver Configuration Wizard to install an eDir-to-eDir driver. Places a tree icon in the Identity Vault.

Change to Identity Vault/Meta-Directory

.(Viewable when you select an eDirectory application.) Runs the Driver Configuration Wizard to install an eDir-to-eDir driver. Places a vault con in the Identity Vault.

Show/Hide Subsystems

Lets you model an application’s or operating system’s subsystems. For example, if you have a Linux system, you can open it and drop MySQL inside as a subapplication that runs on Linux. This is for diagramming purposes only, but can be convenient for accurately capturing the structure of the enterprise systems around which you are building the identity solution.

Add to Group

Creates a Domain Group, and adds the selected items to it. The selected items are removed from any group that they were previously associated with.

Show Dataflow View

Displays the flow of information between the application and the driver in the Developer view. Launches the Dataflow view and lists Dataflow on the menu. For more information, see Section 12.0, Managing the Flow of Data.

Dataflow

(Viewable when the Dataflow view is active.) Displays the flow of information between the application and the driver in the Developer view. Launches the Dataflow view. For more information, see Section 12.0, Managing the Flow of Data and Table E-8.

Secure Connection Setings

.Runs the TLS Configuration Wizard so that you can enable SSL/TLS and create certificates.

Remote Control Desktop

Launches a remote control session for the selected application. The host server must have an existing VNC server running.

Driver > Password Synchronization

Configures and displays the flow of password synchronization. For more information, see Section 12.6, Integrating Passwords.

Driver > Document Selection

Launches the Document Generation Wizard, which documents the driver.

Driver > Export to Configuration File

Exports the driver to a . xml file. iManager can consume this format, and Designer can re-import it. For more information, see Section 19.10, Exporting To a File.

Driver > Import

Enables you to connect to a server, browse to and select a driver, and import the objects into the driver.

Driver > Deploy
