Create a global adoption policy

We can add a customized rule for generating passwords with ISIM Server.

To create a global adoption policy.

1. From the navigation tree, select Configure System > Global Adoption Policies.

2. On the Global Adoption Policies page, in the Adoption Policies table, click Create.

3. On the Global Adoption Policies page, on the General page, type a name for your adoption policy. We can add a description also.

4. Click the Service Type tab, and select a specific service type to associate with the policy. We must specify at least one service type for the global adoption policy. We cannot associate more than one global adoption policy with a service type.

5. Click the Rule tab, and specify a custom rule to govern the attributes that the adoption policy uses to match accounts to users. If we choose to define matches, click Add a match field to select the account and user attributes that must match during reconciliation. The user attribute drop-down list provides a few commonly used attribute combinations that can be used when defining the match. For example, a combination is the first letter of the given name plus the family name or the given name plus the first letter of the family name. If your adoption rule is more complex, we can choose the more advanced path by selecting Providing a Script. If you defined matches, the associated scripts are populated for you in the script definition field.Important: If we choose to provide a script, ISIM Server does not verify the JavaScript is correct. Verify the JavaScript before using it to define the policy.

6. Click OK to save the changes.

7. On the Success page, click Close. The new global adoption policy is displayed on the Global Adoption Policies page. This Global Adoption policy can be changed and deleted.
