AS400 connector

Connectors continue to be released outside the IDM release. For the latest documentation, refer to the ICF documentation.

The AS400 connector enables you to manage and synchronize users between AS400 and the IDM managed user repository.

Before you start

These instructions assume you have an AS400 administrator account and you have access to AS400. You need the following information to configure the connector:

Host Name: The name or IP address of the host where AS400 is running.
Username: The AS400 Organizational Admin username.
Password: The AS400 Organizational Admin password.
Is Secure: Whether or not to enable a secure connection to AS400.

Install the AS400 connector

Download the connector .jar file from the ForgeRock BackStage download site.
- If you are running the connector locally, place it in the /path/to/openidm/connectors directory, for example:
  mv ~/Downloads/as400-connector-1.5.20.15.jar /path/to/openidm/connectors/
- If you are using a remote connector server (RCS), place it in the /path/to/openicf/connectors directory on the RCS.

Configure the AS400 connector

Create a connector configuration using the admin UI:

Select Configure > Connectors and click New Connector.
Enter a Connector Name.
Select AS400 Connector - 1.5.20.15 as the Connector Type.
Provide the Base Connector Details.
Click Save.

When your connector is configured correctly, the connector displays as Active in the admin UI.

Alternatively, test that the configuration is correct by running the following command:

curl \
--header "X-OpenIDM-Username: openidm-admin" \
--header "X-OpenIDM-Password: openidm-admin" \
--header "Accept-API-Version: resource=1.0" \
--request POST \
"http://localhost:8080/openidm/system/as400?_action=test"
{
  "name": "as400",
  "enabled": true,
  "config": "config/provisioner.openicf/as400",
  "connectorRef": {
    "bundleVersion": "[1.5.0.0,1.6.0.0)",
    "bundleName": "org.forgerock.openicf.connectors.as400-connector",
    "connectorName": "org.forgerock.openicf.connectors.as400.As400Connector"
  },
  "displayName": "AS400 Connector",
  "objectTypes": [
    "__ACCOUNT__",
    "__ALL__",
    "__GROUP__"
  ],
  "ok": true
}

If the command returns "ok": true, your connector has been configured correctly, and can authenticate to the AS400 system.

Use the AS400 connector

OpenICF Interfaces Implemented by the AS400 Connector

The AS400 Connector implements the following OpenICF interfaces. For additional details, see ICF interfaces:

Create

Creates an object and its uid.

Delete

Deletes an object, referenced by its uid.

Schema

Describes the object types, operations, and options that the connector supports.

Enables an application to run a script in the context of the connector.

Any script that runs on the connector has the following characteristics:

The script runs in the same execution environment as the connector and has access to all the classes to which the connector has access.
The script has access to a connector variable that is equivalent to an initialized instance of the connector. At a minimum, the script can access the connector configuration.
The script has access to any script arguments passed in by the application.

Search

Searches the target resource for all objects that match the specified object class and filter.

Test

Tests the connector configuration.

Testing a configuration checks all elements of the environment that are referred to by the configuration are available. For example, the connector might make a physical connection to a host that is specified in the configuration to verify that it exists and that the credentials that are specified in the configuration are valid.

This operation might need to connect to a resource, and, as such, might take some time. Do not invoke this operation too often, such as before every provisioning operation. The test operation is not intended to check that the connector is alive (that is, that its physical connection to the resource has not timed out).

You can invoke the test operation before a connector configuration has been validated.

Update

Updates (modifies or replaces) objects on a target resource.
