Teststand api Creating/deleting Users

Hi,
I am using Teststand API with Labwindows and i have a problem with creating/deleting Users.
In fact, to explain easily my problem when you use the full-featured Teststand with the "CreateDeleteUsers.seq" sequence and create a user, then close the full-featured Teststand, you loose your new users in the previous opening.
Whereas, with the Teststand 4.0, with the same "CreateDeleteUsers.seq", when you close, it propose to save the changed file "UserManagement" (Users.ini) and everything's fine...
And as i am using a Labwindows project to login/logout to teststand, i am using TS_... functions i can't find a way to save or to have this save popup to keep my users.
I hope that i am clear, and that someone will be able to help me !

Hello,
As you could see in the following KB: How Can I Edit and Save Changes for the Current User? you have to get the users file as a PropertyObjectFile as it's done in the CreateDeleteUsers sequence, and then use two methods, IncChangeCount() wich is also already done in the example sequence, and the SaveFileIfModified().
See attached file below for the example sequence changed with the file saving.

Does OAM IdentityXML API supports deleting users in LDAP?

We have evaluated OAM IdentityXML WebServices for creating and managing user and group records in LDAP. One of our requirement is to be able to delete any user record and reuse the username for creating another user record.
Hence, we are looking for an IdentityXML function for deleting a user record from the identity store. We have seen the "canIDeleteUser" webservice, and hence assume that there should be an API to delete the user as well.
Also, we can not use the "workflowDeactivateUserSave" as our testcase is to delete and reuse the username.

Yes. You can do this. Proceed on the path with the workflowDeactivateUserSave approach - just build the workflow to perform a 'delete' rather than a 'disable' step (usually the second step to achieve what you describe).
Do you have the workflow working that performs the delete?
As with all IDXML - get things working in the UI style0 first - then move to your IDXML development.
Hope that helps,
Mark

Not able to create, deleted user again in OIM

Hi,
As part of our porcess we susped the user on the next day of his/her last working day. And after 20 days we are deleting that user from OIM.
Now the deleted user again re-hire into the organization. So we need to re-create the user in OIM.
But we are unable to create the user in OIM 11g. And it is showing error as "user already exist".
Then we found there is an entry for this user in OIM repository as usr_status as deleted. And also we are not able to see this user in the OIM admin console even there is an entry in repository.
Please help us how to solve this issue in creating the identity in OIM.
Thanks in advance
Siva

If you want to re-create a deleted user with the same user id then you need to set the re-use id property to true and also drop the unique key contraint from the USR table.

MPR for helpdesk to create / delete users with authZ

Hi everybody,
I'm facing a strange situation with two MPRs. I'm setting up 6 policies for the IT helpdesk to manage users with and without authZ workflows in place, and so far I managed the grant really granular rights depending on the target and modified attributes.
Today I wanted to create my last 2 simple policies for the create resource and delete resource operations, having:
- Policy disabled unchecked
- IT Helpdesk as requestor
- Grants permission unchecked
- Create / delete resource checked
- All Active People for create / All Non-Administrators for delete as target resources, All attributes selected.
- The 2 authZ workflows checked; they are the same as for 2 other policies
When a helpdesk user is creating/deleting a user trough the portal it gets an Access Denied error on submit, when I search the request as admin I see the create/ delete policies are the only ones applied. When I check the Grants permission the user is created/deleted
without authZ, but this is not what I want.
Does anyone has an clue why the workflows are not triggered in these 2 cases, and why are they fired in the other two?
Thanks for helping me out.
Cristian

Even though this post is old I think it worthwhile to answer for others. Hopefully, Christian has already found his solution.
A key to troubleshooting these issues is to go to "Search Requests" and look at the request and see what MPR's were applied. Then look to see if the workflows started requests.

Cannot create additional user in Essbase Adminstration Services

I have created the admin user in Admin Services but cannot create any additional users; the option to "create user" is grayed out. It doesn't allow me to use the wizard as well. Can anybody tell me what the problem is and how to resolve it.

First if you have created the Admin user when you first installed Hyperion, you can't create another user Admin user on the same server. Second, if you created the Admin user without supervisor or create/delete users privileges you can't create other users if you logged in with this user. You mentioned the create/delete is grayed out that means you don't have privileges to create or delete a user if you logged in with that user.
Also, you may have a problem with your EAS, so try using MaxL or ESSCMD to create users and assign them to groups, check the Tech reference for more details:
create user Guest identified by 'password' member of group Visitors;

Active Directory User which can Create a User but not Allowed to Enable Disabled Users

Hi Guys, we have a requirement to create a User Group in Active Directory which will grant its members permission to 'Create Users' but not be allowed to 'Enable' 'Disabled Users'.
We have tried delegating control and assigning permissions by going to 'Security Tab>Advanced'.
It seems like when a group is granted permission to create users, it will also be allowed to enable, disabled users.
Kindly advise if it is possible to create a user group with permissions to 'Create Users' but not be allowed to 'Enable', 'Disabled Users'.

Hi,
According to my experience, you can assign permission with create/delete user objects. If you want to disable/enbale
a user, you must be a member of the Account Operators group, Domain Admins group, or the Enterprise Admins group in Active Directory, or you must have been delegated the appropriate authority.
In general, if you just give a user group the permission to create user objects, it cannot disable or enable user accounts. Please make sure that the permission you assigned is correct and the
user group are not the member of Account Operators group, Domain Admins group, or the Enterprise Admins group in Active Directory.
Best regards,
Susie

Creating and deleting users using AM Client SDK

Hi,
I was wondering if anyone could tell me how to create and/or delete users from Access Manager from a standalone application using the AM Client SDK? From what I have read this can be done using the AMStoreConnection class but I can't find any examples on how to use this class to add and delete users. The only examples I have found is how to retrieve data from AM. I need to keep AM and the underlying directory server in sync with another identity datastore so I need to build a process in Java to do this. Any help is appreciated.
Thanks

Lets assume we have a HR system and the user has got deleted in the system, the HR system drop a CSV file to a specified location with the details of the user to be deleted from the IDM system . Now the CSV GTC connector would need to read the record and delete the user .
This can be done , I have done this using API calls , but i assume that there would be someway of doing this using the OOB GTC .I think we need to set the correct value for the status field to do this ..
I am not sure what status to set.

Welcome to Apple Support Communities
That's the classic behaviour after using Migration Assistant and that's normal.
To transfer the data from the new user account to your old user account, you can follow some steps. Here is all the information you need to do this > https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-5472

Error while creating new user via new MDM API

Hi
I have two questions:
1) Is it possible to create a user in MDM via MDM4J?
2) I am trying to create a user through new MDM API (not the MDM4J). When I execute the command CreateUserCommand, I get following error:

     at com.sap.mdm.security.commands.CreateUserCommand.execute(CreateUserCommand.java:93)

          createusercommand.setSession(repsessionId);

Creating a User Table via DI API

Hi all,
I'm using
SAP Business One 2004A (6.70.185) SP: 00 PL: 07
and corresponding SAP Business One DI API 2004
I want to create a user table.
I try to create it this way:
I have two functions
First function to create the table
Private Function AP_AddOn_CreateTable() As Boolean
   AP_AddOn_CreateTable = True
   Dim oUDT As SAPbobsCOM.UserTablesMD
   Dim sErrMsg As String
   Dim iErrCode As Integer
   Dim iReturn As Integer
   oUDT = oDIComp.GetBusinessObject(SAPbobsCOM.BoObjectTypes.oUserTables)
   oUDT.TableName = "AP_tbItemCalc"
   oUDT.TableDescription = "ItemCalculation"
   iReturn = oUDT.Add
   If iReturn <> 0 Then
      oDIComp.GetLastError(iErrCode, sErrMsg)
      Message
      AP_AddOn_CreateTable = False
   End If
   oUDT = Nothing
End Function
This works fine
Then I call a second function to create the user fields
Private Function AP_AddOn_CreateFields() As Boolean
   AP_AddOn_CreateFields = False
   Dim oUDF As SAPbobsCOM.UserFieldsMD
   Dim sErrMsg As String
   Dim iErrCode As Integer
   Dim iReturn As Integer
   oUDF = oDIComp.GetBusinessObject(SAPbobsCOM.BoObjectTypes.oUserFields)
   oUDF.TableName = "@AP_tbItemCalc"
   'Field1
   oUDF.Name = "ItemCode"
   oUDF.Description = "ItemCode"
   oUDF.Type = SAPbobsCOM.BoFieldTypes.db_Alpha
   oUDF.Size = 20
   iReturn = oUDF.Add()
   If iReturn <> 0 Then
      oDIComp.GetLastError(iErrCode, sErrMsg)
      Message
      Exit Function
   End If
   'Field2
   oUDF.Name = "ItemName"
   oUDF.Description = "ItemName"
   oUDF.Type = SAPbobsCOM.BoFieldTypes.db_Alpha
   oUDF.Size = 100
   iReturn = oUDF.Add()
   If iReturn <> 0 Then
      oDIComp.GetLastError(iErrCode, sErrMsg)
      Message
      Exit Function
   End If
      next fields
   AP_AddOn_CreateFields = True
End Function
The second function returns on adding the first field, an error, errCode -1120, errMsg Ref count for this object is higher than 0
If i close the application after creating the table and then restart the application only executing the second function it works.
I also tried the example as provided in MetaDataOperations and it shows the same behaviour.
Besides, Im the only user on the system and no other application is running.
Kind regards,
Eduard

Create a user through the API and "Prompt user to change password after next login".

Using the Adobe Connect Interface, I can create a user and check the checkbox to "Prompt user to change password after next login".
Can I achieve the same result using the API? The principal-update action doesn't offer such an option and, as far as I can tell, there isn't another action to do so either.
Thank you.

You can achieve it as part of your application functionality, but not as a configuration option on WLS.

Can't create, delete or edit users in /LDAPv3/127.0.0.1 via WGM

Hi guys,
I have followed Mike Bombiches guide to 'Leveraging AD on Mac OSX.' All was fine yesterday...
But today I cannot create, delete or edit users in the OD Directory. The New User/Group etc.. icons are greyed out... And yes I am authenticated...
Any ideas?

Check the logs.
Also use dscl for authenticated reading and writing. Its error reporting might be easier to corelate. See man dscl.

AUDIT action (create, delete, privilege escalation, set and change password from users account and group) users and admins in Solaris 10

Hello.
in Solaris 10 i need auditing process create, delete, privilege escalation, set and change password and etc... from users account and group.
I set settings:
in file syslog.conf:
*.info;mail.none;cron.none;audit.notice            @IP-Remote-syslog-server-SIEM
in file   /etc/security/audit_control:
dir:/var/audit
flags:lo,ad,ex,cc,am,no,fc,fd
minfree:20
naflags:lo
plugin:name=audit_syslog.so;p_flags=lo,ad,ex,cc,am,no
in file   /etc/security/audit_user:
root:lo,ad:no
Now I see in the logs only the fact of a connection via SSH and run processes on behalf of users. Creation. delete users, change passwords for some reason do not is logged.
Many users. For each individual write permissions in the file /etc/security/audit_user not possible, it is likely to forget any new user (or there is a possibility in this file one line to describe the audits for all accounts?)
Where is the mistake?

You are most likely hitting Bug 15779000 user/role/groupadd/mod/del don't audit their use.
And the fix is only available in S11.2.
