Pre-processing versus Post-processing Event Handlers

After looking through the documentation, and a lot of forum posts, I'm still a little unclear as to where custom user modification updates most typically go... if I want to create a customer handler to say transform some data on a user after input on the main OIM form... should that go in the pre or post processing event handler? Or a more basic questions, which transactions or type of events would go in pre-processing, and which would go into post-processing?

As far as I understand, there is no hard and fast rule as to what goes into pre and what goes into post. If you are doing a trusted recon then there is no pre will 11g and you have only post but if you are doing it from the OIM profile page then you can have either one and would depend upon your use case and requirement.
Generally post should cover most of your scenarios from the UI unless you have access policies based on event handler derived attributes. If that's the case then you will have to fine tune the ordering of the event handler so that access policy is the last to be triggered.

Post-processing after errors in CAT5

I had few CO errors during CAT5 transfer, so financial postings were not executed. Errors were fixed in PS, but next time we run CAT5 there are no confirmation foir transfer.
The question is how it is possible to re-process or post process the transferred confirmations that are missing financial postings?
Thank you!

Hi Kabir,
Many thanks for your input. Now I would like to do something that is probably not possible.
I had a closed period, so CO postings failed. It was decided that the period will remain closed, so I want to re-process same confirmations, but with another posting date (that is in the open period). Is it possible?
Or I'd need to change the data in each time report to trigger new confirmations?
Many thanks!

Post processing using NI6225

I have 12 NI6225 DAQ Boards (~960 chs). I want to set up LV8 to read Ch1 on all 12 boards ( SW trigger) then Ch2 on all 12 boards, then Ch3 etc. I need to store ALL this data then process it ( post process?) after acquiring all 900 chs. Any suggestions or examples ? In post processing how does LV distinguish between the raw data from Ch1 board 0 and ch 2 board 0 or even ch1 board 1 ?
Make my day and answer this question.
Thanks,
Clint E.

Clint,
In order to do this, you will need 12 individual tasks. Since you have
12 of these, I'm assuming that you have them inside of a PXI chassis.
The attached example is for 2 devices, but you can extend it to more by
repeating the bottom half of the code. You should physically locate the
master device (the one with the reference clock being exported) in slot
2 of your PXI chassis (the source of the star timing). In this code,
all other devices are synchronized with the master device reference
clock. Whenever the master's Start Task VI is called, this will assert
the AI Start Trigger signal on the master device, and all other devices
will use that as a digital trigger to begin their acquisitions. Please
make sure that all other devices execute their Start Task before the
master does (Merge Errors VI would be helpful). This process will
result in each of your devices acquiring samples at the exact same
time. The output of each analog read will output an array of waveforms,
with each waveform corresponding to the samples acquired on a single
channel of that device. To specify the order with which the channels
are scanned, order them that way in the physical channel control. For
instance Dev1/ai1,Dev2/ai3, Dev1/ai5 will acquire one sample from
channel 1, channel 3, and channel 5, then repeat. Please let me know if
this is not what you were asking, or if you have any additional
questions.
Hope this helps,

OIM11 event handlers: How to avoid firing the same code in both pre+post

Hi everyone,
I have a question around event handlers. My experiments so far have gleaned the following:
Manual updates of user form in admin interface -> Fires: pre-insert + Post-insert
Reconciliation trusted creates -> Fires: Post-insert
Reconciliation trusted updates -> Fires: pre-insert + Post-insert
Now I have various handlers that trigger to update fields coming in from trusted recon. Formatting telephone numbers, setting custom user attributes.. etc. I am using the same code in both the post and pre handlers as wherever the update comes from it needs to be processed in the same way. Problem is if a handler fires twice I can't be sure exactly how the system is going to behave (updating the same field again etc), never mind it is unneeded processing.
We have to keep the pre handlers because otherwise changes completed via the admin interface won't be seen until you refresh.
Can anyone please advice how to go about ensuring a handler is only fired once? i.e. if pre fires don't fire post. Have I missed something key here?
Edit: I know I've worded this badly. They will always fire as that's how OIM behaves, what I want is some way to work out in the underlying code if a field has already been modified in pre process... or something like it.
Thanks,
Wayne.

I am sorry but I am not agree with your design.
However there is no chance to avoid this according to my knowledge. As both class has separate thread under different process, so there is no way to implement thread lock on entity operation.
Alternate way to acheive your requirement:
You can have hidden UDFs. Update hidden UDFs in prepost handler with some data (hardcoded).
"You can have the value this hidden filed like :- "NAME_UPDATE|EMAIL_UPDATED|MANGER_UPDATE"
Now in Post - Process handler check the value of hidden UDF.
Get the value of hidden UDF, tokenize with String Tokenizer. Check which filed is not updated in Pre handler.
*If it is already updated - do not update.* else Update.

OIM 11.1.1.5: Post Process Event Handler, change password notification

Hi,
Products
OIM 11.1.1.5 BP02
OAM 11.1.1.5
OID 11.1.1.5
Problem
I have written a post-process event handler which fires when a role is assigned to a user. The event handler calls a plugin which uses the UserManager API to generate and change the user's password.
I've tested this by assigning a role to the user via the OIM web console. I can see my log messages indicating that the event handler has fired and that the password has been changed.
However, I expected that when UserManager.changePassword completed, a notification email would then be sent to the user informing them of the new password, but no notification email has been sent.
The email notifications have been set up correctly, because I have changed the same user's password via the OIM web console and successfully received a Reset Password email.
So, my questions are:
1) Am I right in thinking that when you call UserManager.changePassword(), an out-of-the-box ResetPassword email notification should be sent to the user?
2) Has anyone got this working in 11.1.1.5?
Some more detailed info
In my plugin class I'm calling the following from both execute methods (EventResult and BulkEventResult):
char newpasswd[] = new RandomPasswordGeneratorImpl().generatePassword(user);
getUserManager().changePassword(userKey, newpasswd, false, null, true);
logger.info(("Successfully changed password"));

No notification will be sent if you changepassword using the method from usermanager api.
You have to trigger the resetpassword event manullay in your code.
Here is a sample code to create an event for reset password. Once you create event, invoke it from notification service - notify method.
NotificationEvent event = new NotificationEvent();
String[] receiverUserIds= {userLogin};
event.setUserIds(receiverUserIds);
event.setTemplateName("ResetPasswordNotification");
event.setSender(null);
HashMap<String, Object> resolvedData = new HashMap<String, Object>();
resolvedData.put("userLoginId", userLogin);
event.setParams(resolvedData);

Post Process Event Handler ----Unique Constraint Violation--Create User

Hi Evryone..
I am creating the user using the create user request template and there is one level of approval for this.
I have one pre process event handler which populates one field A and one post process event handler which updates some 3 fields in the user form .
In request template itself we had placed value as "ABC" for field B and this field B will be overridden in the post process event handler with Value as "XYZ" .
Now when i raise the request the user is getting created in OIM but the value XYZ is not getting replaced in the field B.
Below are the errors which i got in the logs while executing post process event handler :
<Mar 28, 2012 10:25:58 AM CDT> <Warning> <oracle.iam.callbacks.common> <IAM-2030146> <[CALLBACKMSG] Are applicable policies present for this async eventhandler ? : false>

I checked reservations table and there are no records in that table.
Has any one faced this issue..if so how it can be resolved..

Are you trying to update the User ID? As far as I know during create user requests, OIM reserves the user login as it goes through approval and you cannot update that directly I think. I haven't tried it but can you tell me which fields you are prepopulating and which are you updating? Are there any OOTB fields in this or UDF?

OIM 11g: Has anyone managed to pre-populate Display Name by post process

Hi all,
I have an event handler to set Display Name. It works via pre-process but not post (which we need for recon).
Does anyone have this working for trusted reconciliation?
Thanks,
Wayne,

We are doing a little more basic in our modify post process handler... something like:
public BulkEventResult execute(long processId, long eventId, BulkOrchestration bulkOrchestration) {
HashMap<String, Serializable>[] bulkParameters = bulkOrchestration.getBulkParameters();
String[] entities = bulkOrchestration.getTarget().getAllEntityId();
params = new HashMap<String, Object>();
HashMap<String, Serializable> parameters;
for (int i = 0; i < bulkParameters.length; i++) {
entityId=entities;
parameters = bulkParameters[i];
// Insert whatever your custom display name logic is below
String fName = getParameterValue(parameters, "First Name");
String lName = getParameterValue(parameters, "Last Name");
String mInitials = getParameterValue(parameters, "Middle Name");
String dName = lName + " ," + mInitials + " " + fName;
params.put("Display Name", dName);
try {
entityManager.modifyEntity(bulkOrchestration.getTarget().getType(),entityId, params);
} catch (InvalidDataTypeException e) {
// All/any of your catches go here

Post Process Event Handler not getting user's CURRENT_STATE for a UDF field

I have a post process event handler in OIM R2 BP04 , which runs on Trusted Reconciliation and it compares user's ("CURRENT_USER") state and ("NEW_USER_STATE") and based on that derives a business logic.
The problem that i am facing is that, it is not able to get the User's ("CURRENT_USER") state for a UDF(EMAIL_LIST) field and it is coming as null,and hence is breaking the business logic.The same Event Handler is working on TEST and QA ( 4 node cluster)environments and is not working on PROD environment( 4 node cluster).
The different thing that was done on was that during the initial recon the event Handler was not present and after the initial load of the users i have manually executed the database sql query which have updated the "EMAIL_LIST field manually for all the users
I think that since during the initial recon as the EMAIL_LIST was not populated and was populated through the SQL update for all the users, the orchestration inter event data does not contain email list, and so it is coming as null.
But i am seeing the same behavior for new records as well, which are created and then updated after event handler is registered.
Please reply, if you have encountered something similar.
Thnx
Akshat

Yes i need the old state, which is
Identity[] oldUserStatesIdntArr =
(Identity[])(Identity[])interEventData.get("CURRENT_USER");

Error in post process event handler

We should write a post process event handler that updates the manager field. So, I used the following code to update the manager field when a user gets created:
Code:
public EventResult execute(long processId, long eventId,
Orchestration orchestration) {
System.out.println("Test for Event Handler");
try
String userKey = getUserKey(processId, orchestration);
System.out.println("USERKEY1"+userKey);
UserManager userMgmt = Platform.getService(UserManager.class);
System.out.println("USERMANAGEMENT"+userMgmt);
System.out.println(userMgmt.modify(new User(userKey)));
userMgmt.modify("usr_mgr_key","28",new User(userKey));
System.out.println("USERKEY2"+userKey);
} catch (ValidationFailedException e) {
System.out.println("Exception1");
} catch (AccessDeniedException e) {
System.out.println("Exception2");} catch (UserModifyException e) {
System.out.println("Exception3");} catch (NoSuchUserException e) {
System.out.println("Exception4");} catch (SearchKeyNotUniqueException e) {
return new EventResult();
private String getUserKey (long processID, Orchestration orchestration) {
String userKey;
String entityType = orchestration.getTarget().getType();
EventResult result;
result = new EventResult();
System.out.println("Entity Type"+entityType);
System.out.println("Process ID"+processID);
if (!orchestration.getOperation().equals("CREATE")) {
userKey = orchestration.getTarget().getEntityId();
System.out.println("UserKEY0"+userKey);
} else {
OrchestrationEngine orchEngine = Platform.getService(OrchestrationEngine.class);
userKey = (String) orchEngine.getActionResult(processID);
System.out.println("UserKEY-1"+userKey);
return userKey;
It compiles fine and when we try to create a user, the user gets created successfully. But, the expected behaviour of upadting the manager field with the user key '28' is not happening. My approach above - is it right or is there any other method that will make it work?
The output message I see is:

Thanks

i hope wrong coding.
Use this code.
UserManager userMgmt = oimClient.getService(UserManager.class);
//Attribute you want to modify
HashMap<String, Object> atrrMap= new HashMap<String, Object>();
atrrMap.put("usr_manager_key", Long.valueOf("1")); //user will upadated with manager key 1 (xelsysadm) make sure usr_key 1 (manager) exist in OIM.
//get the user to whom you want to modify
User user = userMgmt.getDetails("usr_key", "41", null);
user = new User(String.valueOf(user.getId()), atrrMap);
UserManagerResult result = userMgmt.modify("usr_key", String.valueOf("41"), user);
//UserManagerResult str = userMgmt.modify("usr_mgr_key","111",new User("41"));
System.out.println("UserUpdate.process() "+result.getStatus());
Also don't use UserManager class, As it will go for looping.
Use
EntityManager entityManager = Platform.getService(EntityManager.class);
entityManager.modifyEntity(orchestrationTarget.getType(), userKey, mapAttrs);
Also I am assuming you want to use Associate manager With user use case.

Pre/post processing

Hello group!
Configuration:
Oracle 8.1.7
XDK 9.0.0.0.0(beta)
We use XSQL Servlet scripts (great framework!). We tried to provide single entry point into our webapp. We want to replace XSQLServlet class, and gain control of our servlet environment (transactions, thread synchronization, logs...).
Problem is, if we replace XSQLServlet class with our own class (which extends HttpServlet), we can't use XSQLPageProcesor directly because it is declared private for XSQLServlet package.
So, we try to use XSQLRequest class and construct an instance with XSQLServletPageRequest as parameter and then call XSQLRequest.process().
It works ,but ...
When we attach object with setRequestObject (), requestProcessed is never called.
Why? We mist something?
If we use XSQLRequest (URL url), must we handle sessions, request parameters, cookies ...?
Where is the best place to put pre/post processing of request?
Thanks in advance
Tomi
null

We found just XSQLPageRequest.setRequestObject(), that we already try to use (first post in thread).
We associate *.xsql with our HttpServlet because we want to transparently add controller object(s), and we want to turn this feature off in servlet engine config whenever we want. If we forward it (getServletContext().getRequestDispatcher().forward()), with same name and extension ...
Some code:
public void doGet(HttpServletRequest request, HttpServletResponse response)
throws ServletException, IOException
XSQLServletPageRequest req = new XSQLServletPageRequest(request, response, myContext);
//TransactionController implements the XSQLRequestObjectListener
req.setRequestObject("transaction",new TransactionController(req));
XSQLRequest xsqlrequest = new XSQLRequest(request.getRequestURI(), req);
try
xsqlrequest.process(response.getOutputStream() ,new PrintWriter(System.err));
catch(Exception ex)
ex.printStackTrace();
return;
}When we call XSQLRequest.process, servlet response just fine (except we lost default encoding windows-1250?).
TransactionController is properly attached, but requestProcessed is never called.
We found why. Maybe?
XSQLRequest.process call createNestedRequest from XSQLServletPageRequest, and then setIncludingRequest.
This seems like little overhead :)
We just want to keep our XSQL Scripts clean from including controllers via custom actions in every page.
Can we do that?
Anybody tried something similar?
Thanks for your time

Post process event handler on user creation with is setting a attribute with random 16 digit character, This event handler is getting triggered and setting the attribute in OIM but in logs i can see "Modification failed because user 45118 is not synchronized to the LDAP directory." error and it is not updated in ODSEE.
This behaviour is only for trusted recon not for the User created through UI.
Not sure what exactly is happening..
Is it expected behavior??
Gurus help me out on this.

IF it fail because event handler unable to produce random number then verify below
is eventhandler code being executed in trusted recon verify in log.
There are two method execute and bulk execute in eventhandler. execute is being called from UI and bulk execute is being called for trusted recon.
either put code in bulk execute or update batch recon size something like that system property to 1. so, it will function as UI. Default value of batch is 500

Need help with Post Process Event

Hi all:
I need to implement user login generation thru a post process event. I read lots of posts about this and followed the steps described. So this is what I did:
- Created a java class that implements PostProcessHandler and implemented the execute method. I added in both execute methods (EventResult and BulkEventResult) a statement to log message to a tmp file.
- Created the plugin.xml
- create a zip file with class and plugin.xml.
- Put zip file in plugins directory.
- Registered the plugin.
- Created the EventHandler.xml file to define the postprocess event on User Entity CREATE operation.
- Imported the Event metadata.
Everything went well. Until I ran a reconciliation, and nothing is being called.
Am I missing any steps?? I read that people successfully implemented this. Is there something I should do for lib folder or classpath...
I cannot figure this out..
Thank you

I think this is what I am missing.
I created my EventHandlers.xml in a temp folder with a space name:
The temp folder: /tmp
and under tmp folder I have the following:
/metadata/user/custom/CustomPostProcessEvent/EventHandlers.xml
I am going to change the EventHandlers.xml location:
keep /tmp directory but
Remove the metadata tree
and create /db/EventHandlers.xml
I will let you know...
Thanks again for your feedback. It is very appreciated..

OIM 11g: Access Denied searching usr_emp_no in post process event handler

I am logging in as xelsysadm and creating a new user. I have populated a UDF called Manager Employee Number with a value of 12345 and I have a corresponding user with the Employee Number populated with that same value.
When I create the user, my code searches for a corresponding user in OIM with that employee number. The problem is that i am getting an access denied error searching use_emp_no. Ironically, in a different post process event handler, I have access to decrypting the user's password.
I tried searching by Employee Number rather than use_emp_no (which is what is returned with AttributeName.EMPLOYEE_NUMBER.getId()) but that did not find any users. It did seem to attempt the search though.
Here is the code and the error:
//get the manager object and retrieve the user login and user key of the manager
mgrRetAttrs.add("USER_LOGIN");
mgrRetAttrs.add("USER_KEY");
List<User> mgrList = searchUsr(mgrEmpNo, mgrRetAttrs);
logger.finest("Retrieved " + mgrList.size() + " managers with that employee number.");
private List<User> searchUsr(String mgrEmpNo, Set<String> mgrRetAttrs) throws AccessDeniedException, UserSearchException{
logger.finest("************Entering BBTMgrIDPostProcEventHandler#searchUser()***********");
logger.finest("This is the manager emp no we are searching: " + mgrEmpNo);

new SearchCriteria(AttributeName.EMPLOYEE_NUMBER.getId(), mgrEmpNo, SearchCriteria.Operator.EQUAL);
logger.finest("This is the search criteria: " + srchCriteria.toString());

return this.userMgr;

Thanks,

This is what fixed the problem:
Instead of the following:
//get the manager object and retrieve the user login and user key of the manager
mgrRetAttrs.add("USER_LOGIN");
mgrRetAttrs.add("USER_KEY");
I needed to do this instead:
mgrRetAttrs.add(UserManagerConstants.AttributeName.USER_LOGIN.getId());
mgrRetAttrs.add(UserManagerConstants.AttributeName.USER_KEY.getId());
Then I changed the searchCriteria back to the following:
SearchCriteria srchCriteria =
new SearchCriteria("Employee Number", "12345", SearchCriteria.Operator.EQUAL);
This did the trick.
