IdM RDS

Hello Gurus,
Could you pls help me out on how to use the RDS stored procedure script for Oracle on DB2 ? I am on IDM 7.2 SP 9 With DB2 database and there is no script for DB2 in RDS package.
Regards
Samer

Samer,
After reviewing the documentation, I would suggest engaging your DBAs on this to review to stored procedure. I believe I ran it straight via DB2. I don't recall if I executed the SP as we had no need for it. I'd suggest reviewing the documentation on Page 11 of the D04-Identity Management 7.20 - Setup and Processioning document that comes with the RDS.
If you are still uncertain, I'd suggest opening a Support Note.

Reconciliation reports in SAP IDM

Hello
I am working on IDM 7.2 SP8 configuration and so far its going good and was able to configured scenerios.
I wanted some reports (Reconcillation report) and saw some blog where its advised to install SAP IDM RDS solution, I am just wondering how can I adopt that solution since I am already on 7.2 SP8 and configure my tool with client required customization.
I checked that RDS solution is avaialble for IDM 7.2 SP4.
Is there any way I can find reconcillation report MCC File so I can upload and use ?
Thanks & Regards
Deepak Gupta

Thanks Matt / Peter
Do you mean that I can download the RDS Soultion from market place and then only upload the Reconicillation report to my current SP8 version and that would work fine ?
Does the downloads will have *.MCC files for reconcillation report which can be directly uploaded ?
Thanks & Regards

SAP IDM 8.0 Provisioning of group privilege assignments

Hi,
I set up Active Directory as a target system. I imported the new packages for Eclipse and did the initial load for AD (System privileges were created).
When I assign the PRIV:AD:ONLY privilege to an identity, the identity gets provisioned to AD.
When I assign the PRIV:AD:ONLY privilege to a group, the group gets provisioned to AD.
So far so good.
But when I assign the group to the identity I get the error in the execution log:
Cannot obtain mskey for group privilege PRIV:GROUP:AD:CN\=MY AD GROUP\,CN\=GROUPS\, DC\=DUMMY\, DC\=COM
The CN represents my CN in the Active Directory, but, I have no PRIV:GROUP:AD privilege?
so I can not provision group assignments to AD and I used only the default packages with no modifications.
And an additional question, when does the RDS for 8.0 comes out?
Are there some predefined approval processes like in 7.2?
Thanks, Patrick

Hi Jai,
Ahhhh
Thank you! you pointed me in the right direction, I disabled a few actions in the initial load job, including "WriteGroupPrivileges".
I had to disable the following Attributes: MX_INHERIT, MX_GROUP_INHERITANCE
I got the following error:
Value not legal for this attribute:Attribute: MX_GROUP_INHERITANCE" when storing attribute 'MX_GROUP_INHERITANCE=ONE'
Thanks for the fast help!
Patrick
Edit: Do I need for every Group in IDM a privilege for the target system?

SAP IdM - Self Service password reset

Hi All
Has anyone configured the Self-service password reset option yet?
I have a question that the documentation doesn't answer. We plan on using the IdM on our SAP landscape which would involve at least 9 seperate systems, meaning the Dev, QA and Prod systems for BW 3.5, CRM 2007 & ECC.
My question is if we have a user that has access to all these systems, but only needs to reset their password in 1 of them. How does the Self-service password reset option know which system that user's id is locked in or would it be resetting the password in every one of the systems?
Ken

That's right. Users would have to repeat the same process if they want to change the password for say 2 systems out of the 9. Its a quick and easy way to get it up and running without much customization.
But if you want to eliminate this repetition, the ideal way would be to customize the UI (some thig like this which comes as part of RDS)
Cheers,
Murali.

Error while resetting password in IDM 8.1

Hi,
I am using SUN IDM 8.1. I have a user account for which a number of induvidual resources are assigned. When I try to reset the password for any of the resources, I am getting the following error message:
com.waveset.util.WavesetException: An error occurred modifying user 'xxxx' on resource 'abcdtst1'. com.waveset.util.WavesetException: Error changing "xxxx" : You do not have permission.
I am logging in as Configurator. I am able to reset the password for other users having access to same resource 'abcdtst1'.
Please let me know if anyone has faced similar issue.

I am able to edit the user account from debug window and admin screen. That uis I can make changes to user name, id, facility and so on. But cannot make any changes to the induvidually assigned resources.
I also checked the resource info for the user xml. I am not able to find anything unusual there. Will reprovisioning all resources work? Or will I have to delete the user account and create it again?

Deploying Applications with SCCM 2012 R2 to Server 2008 R2 RDS servers

I'm having some trouble finding some concrete information from Microsoft regarding the deployment of applications to RDS servers using SCCM 2012 R2. There seems to be a lot of conjecture, old information and old wives tales floating around and I was hoping
I could get some information confirmed!
1. MSI installs automatically switch to install mode on RDS servers?
I've seen this mentioned a few times. I've also seen it mentioned that it is only true when running the MSI from the console session manually (i.e clicking the MSI file) not running as SYSTEM as SCCM would usually do. Can someone confirm if they do this
themselves or not?
2. Users still logged in when deploying applications?
Is it possible to deploy an application while users are still logged in? Is this only related to going into 'install' mode and taking the chance that a user will do something that will cause issues? Or is it known to cause issues?
I guess those are the main ones, I'm experienced in SCCM but not with deploying to RDS servers, I cant seem to find any straight answers!
Anyway, thanks in advance!

I've never had large enough RDS environment to use SCCM for app push, but from my experience in managing 2012/R2 RDS and local installs, I never bother with switching to install mode anymore and it works fine. Now if you're skeptical, you can
easily build this into a script that runs as a pre-req to your .MSI as part of the software package in SCCM so it's not a big deal.
As for installing apps while users are logged in, shouldn't be a problem if you're installing a new app., if however you're updating an existing application or uninstalling it, then it may be best to drain that RDS host first of all user sessions then do
the work just to be safe. this also helps avoid reboots.

Help: Connecting Tomcat to CA-IDMS Using JDBC Type 4 Drivers (JNDI)

Hi there,
I have a rather interesting / complex problem......creating a connection to CA-IDMS from Tomcat using JDBC type 4 drivers (CA provide the type 4 driver).
We have a zSeries 9 IBM mainframe running CA-IDMS r16.1, and I need to connect to the IDMS from Tomcat (running on Linux) using the JDBC Type 4 drivers provided by CA.
At this stage I am struggling with the actual setup and configuration of Tomcats server.xml and web.xml files. These are the files where the JDBC configuration is set (I think). I have to setup the CA-IDMS part of the configuration, but that is a different problem. Basically there is a TCP/IP listener on the IDMS, waiting for incoming connections from the JDBC type 4 driver.
I set up a Tomcat to MySQL connection using MySQL Connector / J, which is a similar kind of process to what I am trying to achieve with IDMS. MySQL connector / J came with a jar file which is placed in Tomcats lib folder, and then the JDBC setup for the web application is created in Tomcat's server.xml and web.xml files. You can then connect to the MySQL database using JSP and the configured JDBC driver / connection. The CA-IDMS Server comes with an idmsjdbc.jar file, which I think is the JDBC typr 4 driver. I think it needs to be placed in the Tomcat /lib folder, but I dont know how to set up the configuration.
There is a JDBC DriverManager which allows JDBC drivers to connect to CA-IDMS. The DriverManager recognises the following syntax:
jdbc:idms://hostname:port/database
This allows the JDBC driver running within Tomcat to connect to the IDMS which is running on the IDM mainframe. CA IDMS r16 supports direct connections from the Type 4 JDBC driver to the Central Version on IDMS. "hostname" is the DNS name or IP address of the machine where the CV is running, and "port" is the IP port that was specified for the listener PTERM (setup on the IDMS side).
There is a caidms.properties file for the JDBC driver, which is used to specify user ID, password, and optional accounting information. It can also be used to specify physical connection information, allowing an application to connect to a CA-IDMS database without requiring the definition of an ODBC style data source. However, I dont know where to place this file within the Tomcat setup.
There is also an IdmsDataSource class. I dont know where to configure this or how to set it up; the CA-IDMS Server manual states the following:
This class implements the JDBC DataSource interface. It is used with an application server (Tomcat) providing Java Naming and Directory Interface (JNDI) naming service to establish a connection to a CA IDMS database. IdmsDataSource properties conform to the Java Beans naming conventions and are implicitly defined by public setter and getter methods. For example, the description property, which is required for all DataSource implementations, is set using the setDescription(String) method. The application server may use the java.lang.reflection methods to discover DataSource properties and provide an interface to set them, or may simply require that they are defined in some configuration file. IdmsDataSource properties are used to specify the connection parameters. These properties are the equivalent of the DriverPropertyInfo attributes described in the previous section and can be used to completely define the parameters needed to connect to a database. Like a URL, an IdmsDataSource object can also reference an ODBC style data source name, where the connection parameters are defined in the configuration file on Linux.
Is there anyone that can try to point me in the right direction to setting up the JDBC connection? I am totally new to Java and so the instructions are not making much sense at the moment. Any help, hints, tips..anything will be greatly appreciated as I have just hit a brick wall here. I can't find much to do with setting up the CA-IDMS Server JDBC type 4 driver online either....if anyone can point me to some resources that would also be extremely useful.
Kind regards
Jp

You say you've managed to get the JDBC driver working
in an application but not in a JSP. You also say that
the error you get is
"com.microsoft.jdbc.sqlserver.SQLServerDriver".
I'd be willing to bet that the exception that you have
got is a ClassNotFoundException. I.E. your application
server hasn't found the JDBC driver classes. The
application server probably doesn't use your current
CLASSPATH to look for classes. It will be setup within
the application server in some way and you'll need to
check your app server documentation to see how it is
done.
Try replacing
e.printStackTrace();with
e.printStackTrace(out);to get a full stack trace of your error.
ColTried it. Got this error when I tried to run the JSP.
Incompatible type for method. Can't convert javax.servlet.jsp.JspWriter to java.io.PrintWriter.
e.printStackTrace(out);
I'm currently using Apache Tomcat 4.0.3 as my JSP/Servlet Container.
I'm also using Type 4 MS SQL Server 2000 JDBC driver version 2.0 on my NT4.0 Server.
Do I need to set my JDBC driver in my container? if so, how do I do that?

Error on page in Idm 7.1.0

I installed IdM 7.1.0 with Tomcat 5.5.23, jdk 1.6 and MySql 5.0.45.
I login to application and edit user assignments (click to Accounts, eg. Administrator and Assignments).
There is an error on this page: there is a red cross instead of control to edit Roles, Individual Resource Assignment, Individual Resource Group Assignment or Resource Exclusions. When I click to the "Save" button, Internet Explorer reports "Error on page".
Do you have any idea how to get rid of this error?

Those controls are all Java applets, it sounds like you do not have Java applets enabled in your browser.
If you can't use Java applets you can also edit the form (User Library in this case) and add a property to all of the fields whose display class is MultiSelect:
<Property name='noApplet' value='true'/>
This will cause the JavaScript version of the multiselect to render instead.

IdM 7 and SSO for legacy applications

Dear experts,
Per SAP NetWeaver 7 documentation new approach allows SSO for any legacy applications without a need for a 3rd party IdM solution.
Could someone explain how this is handled? Does evary non-SAP application need to become aware of SAP IdM credential store and be able to interact with it, or some other - non-intrusive approach is being used?
Thanks in advance,
Eugene.

Hi Eugene,
SAP NetWeaver Identity Management 7.0 handles the provisioning of users (identities) for a heterogeneous landscape. Authentication and Single Sign-On (SSO) is being handled within the SAP NetWeaver platform. So introducing SAP NetWeaver Identity Management itself does not introduce additional SSO functionality.

How do you configure a farm name in RDS 2012?

I understand Remote Desktop Services has undergo some drastric changes.
How do you configure a farm name in RDS 2012? Or is the concept around farm name changed in another concept?
Although I have imported a certificate on the RDCH withe the farm name I want to use. When I click on a RemoteApp on the RD Web Access portal, it does not connect to the right farm name.
Boudewijn Plomp, BPMi Infrastructure & Security

You don't. You create a collection. A client connects to the Connection Broker and then is redirected to the collection it is connecting to. The collection name is embedded in the connection file that the client downloads from RDWeb or
the RDWeb feed.
A collection is basically at least one RDSH server (for session based desktops) or one virtual machine (virtual machine based desktops).

Hi Kenneth,
Here for your case suggest you to configure RDP session time limit so that your user can disconnect\log off once the specific time limit reached.
You can setup the session time limit in different method.
1. Open the Server Manager, select Remote Desktop Services.
2. In Remote desktop Services, in right side you can drop down to collections.
3. Select the collection which you want to edit the settings.
4. Under collections Properties, select Task and then Edit Properties.
5. In Properties dialog box, select Session.
6. You can find all thetimeout settings under session collection properties; edit according to your requirements and then OK.
And apart also by group policy setting as below.
Computer Configuration\Policies\Administrative Templates\Windows Components\Remote Desktop Services\Remote Desktop Session Host\Session Time Limits
User Configuration\Policies\Administrative Templates\Windows Components\Remote Desktop Services\Remote Desktop Session Host\Session Time Limits
- Set time limit for disconnected sessions
- Set time limit for active but idle Remote Desktop Services sessions
- Set time limit for active Remote Desktop Services sessions
- End session when time limits are reached
Please check which setting suitable for your environment and you can apply for your case.

Windows Server 2012 R2 RDS + User profile Disks + App-V = Explorer.exe crashing all of the time

I have built a new RDS farm on Windows Server 2012 R2 with two Session Hosts and a combined Connect Broker/Web Access server. I had the farm up and running with User Profile Disks and all seemed OK. However, as soon as I installed the App-V 5.0 SP2 RDS
client on the session hosts, the explorer.exe process started crashing for any user logging in via the Web Access site. The process crashes and restarts every five to ten seconds. It's the same for administrators. If they log in via Web Access explorer.exe
crashes, but if they RDP directly to one of the session hosts explorer.exe is fine. If I reboot the session hosts, then the first user to log in via Web Access has a stable desktop session (and appears to have a new profile as well). However, if that user
logs out and back in again, explorer.exe starts crashing again. The only applications I have packaged at the moment are Office 2013 and Firefox.
I tried disabling User Profile Disks, but this caused a whole bunch of other problems and I eventually lost the ability to log in at all via Web Access (errors about the user profile service). As this is a small pre-production environment I completed scrapped
all of the servers and rebuilt from scratch. Again, everything appeared fine until I installed the App-V client, then explorer.exe started crashing repeatedly for all users.
Has anyone come across this issue before? I have tried installing the App-V 5.0 SP2 Hotfix Package 2, but this didn't help. I have read in a few forums that App-V doesn't work very well with User Profile Desks, but I have not heard of this particular issue.
Similarly, SP2 seems to have a lot of problems, so I am going to try removing App-V RDp Client SP2 and installing SP1. I ahev also deleted User Profile Disks for the test users to recreate their profiles, but this didn't help either.
Any other suggestions welcome!

I forgot to include the application event log entry for explorer.exe crashing:

Windows Server 2012 R2 RDS: RDS Users are unable to delete files from their desktop

Hello,
We are working with Windows Server 2012 R2 RDS. We also implemented User Profile Disks. This is all working fine without problems. The only issue I have is that normal users are unable to delete files from their desktop. They are getting a message:
you'll need administrator permission to delete this file, with the prompt for administrator access.
They can edit, copy, rename, cut and paste files. But they cannot delete a file from their desktop.
I checked the security permissions of the files on the desktop (for example a normal self-created PDF file) and the users are owner and have "Full Control" over the files.
I checked the file permissions and took a look under "Advanced", selecting the specific domain user and checked the "Advanced Permissions" and the user has the "Delete" option checked. So he should be able to delete the
file.
I am guessing this is UPD related issue, or something in GPO. But I already unlinked the GPO objects, that I felt could be the source of this problem, but without results.
Could someone give me a hint on where to look? It's kinda annoying to users, that they can't delete their own files.

Hello Bria,
What you should check first, is the NTFS permissions on the User Profile Disk to begin with. See if the user has full control over the items that are in the UPD.
Also check the GPO's that are enabled for the user and computer account. You can check that by running: gpresult /h <path>\gpresult.html
There are two GPO settings that could prevent the user from deleting his/her own items:
User
Configuration\\Policies\\Administrative Templates\\Windows Components\\Windows Explorer\
Hide these specified drives in My Computer
Prevent access to specified drives in My
Computer
There might be other GPO settings, that block deleting items on the UPD, but can't think of any out of my head.
I can only think NTFS and GPO settings that might prevent the user from deleting items. In my case it was a GPO setting, that I didn't suspect.

I read that some compatiblity issues may come with Java 8..
Should I reinstall Java 7? is there any foreseen patch for RDS if it's a compatibility issue ? I also precise that I'm running my Apex environment in a standalone mode.
Thanks for your feedback.
Rgds,
Yves

There is no official statement of certification for Java 8. We do support it, however, our stress testing is focused primary on Java 7.
