7.3 Populating the Identity Vault with the Resource Kit Data

This section explains how to populate the Identity Vault with the information from the Resource Kit Designer project. This prepares the Identity Vault for the installation of the User Application.

There are two separate tasks to complete:

7.3.1 Deploying the Resource Kit Project into the Identity Vault

  1. Launch Designer by clicking the icon on the desktop.

    Launching Designer

  2. To deploy the configuration to the Identity Vault, right-click the driver set in the META Identity Vault, then select Live > Deploy.

    Selecting Deploy

  3. The deployment summary dialog box comes up. If you don’t want to see this dialog box every time you deploy, select Don't show this dialog box again, then select Deploy.

    You can always use Compare instead of Deploy to use the full compare and reconciliation capabilities of Designer. Most people prefer to have the deploy process smooth and silent.

    The deploy process ends with a Deployment Results dialog box.

  4. Select Define Security Equivalences to define the rights for the drivers.

  5. Click Add, browse to and select the all-drivers.idm.services.system Organizational Role, then click OK.

    Selecting the Organization Role all-drivers.idm.services.system

  6. Click OK to close the Security Equivalences dialog box.

  7. Do not click Exclude Administrative Roles in the New Driver Settings dialog box.

    Exclude Administrative Roles

    If you exclude administrative roles, this is a static list that must be maintained if there are changes in your environment. The Resource Kit uses Entitlements and Role-Based Services to manage this information.

  8. Click OK to deploy the project.

  9. Select the Default Notification Collection container in the Outline tab.

    The e-mail notification templates are not deployed when you select the driver set.

  10. Right-click the container, then select Live > Deploy.

  11. Select Deploy.

  12. Read the summary, then click OK.

  13. Exit Designer.

  14. Proceed to Section 7.3.2, Loading Sample Schema Extensions and Data.

7.3.2 Loading Sample Schema Extensions and Data

The best way to explore the Resource Kit and its capabilities is to install our sample schema extensions and sample data, so you have real data in the system and can use that to demonstrate or test the kit.

The passwords for the user accounts are set to the user’s name. For example, the password for the ablake.users.company.data is ablake.

NOTE:You can usually use the ICE utility through iManager. However, there is currently an issue with it and it does not function. You must use the ICE command line utility instead.

  1. From the Computer menu, select Gnome Terminal.

  2. Login in as root by entering su, then enter the root password.

  3. Verify you current directory is /home/admin/designer_workspace/RK12/Designer/Documents/Resources/config.

  4. Enter the following command to extend the schema:

    ice -S LDIF -f ResourceKitSampleSchema.ldif -c -D LDAP -s 172.17.2.117 -p 389 -d cn=admin,dc=admins,dc=system -w n0v3ll -F -P -l error.log -v

    See Table 7-1 for a description of each option used.

  5. Enter the following command to import the sample data:

    ice -S LDIF -f ResourceKitSampleData.ldif -c -D LDAP -s 172.17.2.117 -p 389 -d cn=admin,dc=admins,dc=system -w n0v3ll -F -P -l error.log -v

    See Table 7-1 for a description of each option used.

  6. Enter exit twice to log out as root and close the Gnome Terminal.

  7. Proceed to Section 7.4, Prerequisites for the Delimited Text Driver.
