Ident_Imprivata_Realtime

Sample workflow to provision a Imprivata OneSign connected system from a DirX Identity target system.

A provisioning workflow transfers the account, group and membership changes that DirX Identity has calculated for a target system into the connected system, and acknowledges the result back into the Identity Store. It is the workflow that executes what privilege resolution has decided: when a user gains or loses a privilege, the resolution writes the resulting account or membership change into the target system subtree of the Identity Store, and this workflow applies that change to the connected system.

The workflow processes single requests as they arrive, so it reflects changes with little delay. Use the corresponding validation workflow to detect changes that were made in the connected system outside of DirX Identity.

Ident_Imprivata_Realtime is the provisioning workflow for connected systems of type Imprivata OneSign. You use it to keep an Imprivata OneSign target system aligned with the target system objects that DirX Identity groups under tsresource imprivata-domain and tscluster imprivata-cluster.

On the target side, the accounts channel represents subscribers. Together with groups and the available setPassword channel, the workflow covers the core objects that Spmlv1SoapConnector2Imprivata exposes for real-time provisioning.

The workflows in this reference are delivered as factory data and are loaded into the Connectivity configuration database during the initial configuration. They are samples: use the Identity Manager to copy a workflow into your own scenario and adapt the copy. Do not change the delivered objects, because a product update can replace them.

Prerequisites

  • Create a connected directory of type Imprivata OneSign with the bind profile Admin.

  • Link that connected directory to a target system of type Imprivata OneSign in the Identity Store.

  • Make sure the Java-based Server can reach the Identity Store through Domain_Admin, the connected directory through Spmlv1SoapConnector2Imprivata, and the messaging system used by event.

A Java-based real-time workflow runs as a permanently loaded configuration in the Java-based Server (IdS-J). It is triggered by a request or an event rather than by a schedule. Each workflow consists of activities; an activity opens one port per system it talks to, and each port uses a connector to reach that system.

Most provisioning workflows contain a join activity that performs the actual work and an error activity that receives requests which still fail after all retries and sends a notification about them. The retrylimit, waitbeforeretry and timeout parameters of an activity control how often and how long a failed request is retried before it is handed to the error activity.

The event port publishes change events over JMS, and the notify port sends e-mail notifications. Neither port is bound to a connected directory.

The join activity receives provisioning work on event, reads the DirX Identity side on IdentityDomain, and sends the resulting work to TS. On the Imprivata side, accounts means subscribers, while groups stays available for the related group assignments.

notify handles the normal notification path. If provisioning fails, the workflow switches to error and sends the failure message through Message.

Operation

  1. A provisioning event reaches join through event.

  2. join reads the required subscriber and group context from IdentityDomain.

  3. CryptFilter decrypts the target-side password value on TS, and Spmlv1SoapConnector2Imprivata sends the target request to the connected directory.

  4. The workflow sends the normal notification through notify.

  5. If the target request fails, the workflow routes the error to error and sends the failure information through Message.

The workflow is delivered inactive (dxmActive is FALSE). Copy it into your own scenario before you enable it.
