<h1 class="topictitle1">Add an alias to a registry definition</h1>
<div><div class="section"><p>You, or an application developer, may want to specify additional
distinguishing information for a <a href="rzalveserverregistry.htm#rzalveserverregistry">registry
definition</a>. You can do this by creating an alias for the registry definition.
You, or others, can then use the alias for the registry definition to better
distinguish one user registry from another.</p>
<p>This alias
support allows programmers to write applications without having to know in
advance the arbitrary Enterprise Identity Mapping (EIM) registry definition
name chosen by the administrator who deploys the application. Application
documentation can provide the EIM administrator with the alias name that the
application uses. Using this information, the EIM administrator can assign
this alias name to the EIM registry definition that represents the actual
user registry that the administrator wants the application to use. </p>
<p>To
add an alias to a registry definition, you must be connected to the EIM domain
in which you want to work and you must have <a href="rzalveservereimauths.htm#rzalveservereimauths">EIM access control</a> at
one of these levels: </p>
<ul><li>Registry administrator.</li>
<li>Administrator for selected registries (for the registry that you are modifying).</li>
<li>EIM administrator.</li>
</ul>
<p>To add an alias to an EIM registry definition, complete these steps:
</p>
</div>
<ol><li class="stepexpand"><span>Expand <span class="uicontrol">Network &gt; Enterprise Identity Mapping &gt; Domain
Management</span>.</span></li>
<li class="stepexpand"><span>Select the EIM domain in which you want to work.</span> <ul><li>If the EIM domain you want to work with is not listed under Domain Management,
see <a href="rzalvadmindomainadd.htm#rzalvadmindomainadd">Add an EIM domain to the Domain Management folder</a>.</li>
<li>If you are not currently connected to the EIM domain in which you want
to work, see <a href="rzalvadmindomaincon.htm#rzalvadmindomaincon">Connect to an EIM domain</a>.</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li class="stepexpand"><span>Expand the EIM domain to which you are now connected.</span></li>
<li class="stepexpand"><span>Click <span class="uicontrol">User Registries</span> to display the list
of registry definitions within the domain.</span> <div class="note"><span class="notetitle">Note:</span> If you have Administrator

definitions to which you are specifically authorized.</div>

alias and select <span class="uicontrol">Properties...</span>.</span></li>
<li class="stepexpand"><span>Select the <span class="uicontrol">Aliases</span> page and specify the
