|
|
<div><p>This information explains how to establish a mapping relationship
|
|
for all user identities in the domain. </p>
|
|
<p>A default domain policy association is one type of policy association that
|
|
you can use to create many-to-one mappings between user identities. You can
|
|
use a default domain policy association to map a source set of multiple user
|
|
identities (in this case, all users in the domain) to a single target user
|
|
identity in a specified target user registry. In a default domain policy association,
|
|
all users in the domain are the source of the policy association and are mapped
|
|
to a single target registry and target user identity. </p>
|
|
<p>To use a default domain policy association, you must enable mapping lookups
|
|
using policy associations for the domain. You must also enable mapping lookups
|
|
for the target user registry of the policy association. When you configure
|
|
this enablement, the user registries in the policy association can participate
|
|
in mapping lookup operations. </p>
|
|
<p>The default domain policy association takes effect when a mapping lookup
|
|
operation is not satisfied by identifier associations, certificate filter
|
|
policy associations, or default registry policy associations for the target
|
|
registry. The result is that all user identities in the domain are mapped
|
|
to the single target user identity as specified by the default domain policy
|
|
association.</p>
|
|
<p>For example, you create a default domain policy association with a target
|
|
user identity of <samp class="codeph">John_Day</samp> in target registry <samp class="codeph">Registry_xyz</samp> and
|
|
you have not created any identifier associations or other policy associations
|
|
that map to this user identity. Therefore, when <samp class="codeph">Registry_xyz</samp> is
|
|
specified as the target registry in lookup operations, the default domain
|
|
policy ensures that the target user identity of <samp class="codeph">John_Day</samp> is
|
|
returned for all user identities in the domain that do not have any other
|
|
associations defined for them.</p>
|
|
<p>You specify these two things to define a default domain policy association:</p>
|
|
<ul><li><strong>Target registry</strong>. <span class="break"> The target registry that
|
|
you specify is the name of an Enterprise Identity Mapping (EIM) registry definition
|
|
which contains the user identity to which all user identities in the domain
|
|
are to be mapped.</span></li>
|
|
<li><strong>Target user</strong>. <span class="break"> The target user is the name
|
|
of user identity that is returned as the target of an EIM mapping lookup operation
|
|
based on this policy association.</span></li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<p>You can define a default domain policy association for each registry in
|
|
the domain. If two or more domain policy associations refer to the same target
|
|
registry, you must define unique <a href="rzalvlookupinfodef.htm#lookup_info_def">lookup
|
|
information</a> for each of these policy associations to ensure that mapping
|
|
lookup operations can distinguish among them. Otherwise, mapping lookup operations
|
|
may return multiple target user identities. As a result of these ambiguous
|
|
results, applications that rely on EIM may not be able to determine the exact
|
|
target user identity to use. </p>
|
|
<p>Because you can use policy associations in a variety of overlapping ways,
|
|
you should have a thorough understanding of EIM <a href="rzalv_map_pol_support.htm#rzalv_map_pol_support">mapping policy support</a> and how <a href="rzalveservereimmaplookup.htm#rzalveservereimmaplookup">lookup operations</a> work before you create and use policy
|
|
associations.</p>
|
|
<div class="note"><span class="notetitle">Note:</span> <img src="./delta.gif" alt="Start of change" />You might want to create a default domain policy association
|
|
with a target user identity that exists within a group registry definition.
|
|
All users in the domain are the source of the policy association and are mapped
|
|
to a target user identity in a target group registry definition. The user
|
|
identity that you define in the default domain policy association exists within
|
|
the members of the group registry definition.<p>For example, John Day uses
|
|
the same i5/OS™ user
|
|
profile, <samp class="codeph">John_Day</samp>, on five different systems: System B, System
|
|
C, System D, System E, and System F. To reduce the amount of work that he
|
|
must perform to configure EIM mapping, the EIM administrator creates a group
|
|
registry definition called<samp class="codeph"> Group_1</samp>. Members of the group
|
|
registry definition include the registry definition names of <samp class="codeph">System_B,
|
|
System_C, System_D, System_E, and System_F</samp>. Grouping members together
|
|
enables the administrator to create a single target association to the group
|
|
registry definition and user identity, rather than multiple associations to
|
|
the individual registry definitions.</p>
|
|
<p>The EIM administrator creates a
|
|
default domain policy association with a target user identity of <samp class="codeph">John_Day</samp> in
|
|
target registry <samp class="codeph">Group_1</samp>. In this case, no other specific
|
|
identifier associations or policy associations apply. Therefore, when <samp class="codeph">Group_1</samp> is
|
|
specified as the target registry in lookup operations, the default domain
|
|
policy ensures that the target user identity of <samp class="codeph">John_Day</samp> is
|
|
returned for all user identities in the domain that do not have any specific
|
|
identifier associations defined for them.</p>
