<h1 class="topictitle1">Add an alias to an EIM identifier</h1>
|
||
|
|
<div><div class="section"><p>You may want to create an alias to provide additional distinguishing
|
||
|
|
information for an <a href="rzalveservereimid.htm">EIM identifier</a>. Aliases can
|
||
|
|
aid in locating a specific Enterprise Identity Mapping (EIM) identifier when
|
||
|
|
performing an EIM lookup operation. For example, aliases can be useful in
|
||
|
|
situations where someone's legal name is different from the name that that
|
||
|
|
person is known as. </p>
|
||
|
|
<p>EIM identifier names must be unique within an EIM
|
||
|
|
domain. Aliases can help address situations where using unique identifier
|
||
|
|
names can be difficult. For example, different individuals within an enterprise
|
||
|
|
can share the same name, which can be confusing if you are using proper names
|
||
|
|
as EIM identifiers. For example, if you have two users named John J. Johnson,
|
||
|
|
you could create an alias of John Joseph Johnson for one and
|
||
|
|
an alias of John Jeffrey Johnson to make it easier to distinguish the identity
|
||
|
|
of each user. The additional aliases might contain each user's employee number,
|
||
|
|
department number, job title, or other distinguishing attribute.</p>
|
||
|
|
<p>To
|
||
|
|
add an alias to an EIM identifier, 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>EIM administrator.</li>
|
||
|
|
<li>Identifier administrator.</li>
|
||
|
|
</ul>
|
||
|
|
<p>To add an alias to an EIM identifier, complete these steps.</p>
