Configuring and Triggering the Active Directory Import Tool
Prerequisites: Follow the instructions in Active Directory Connection Configuration to configure Active Directory in CloudPortal Business Manager. As a service provider, you must configure adsync.workdirectory and adsync.report_email with appropriate values.
Note:
- All users created under AD must have email ids configured.
- ad-import-mapping.csv must be created to the location mentioned in adsync.workdirectory.
Configuring the Active Directory CloudPortal Business Manager Account Mapping
A group or OU in Active Directory (AD) maps to the CloudPortal Business Manager (CPBM) tenant account. The account mapping is specified in ad-import-mapping.csv file.
- Be sure about the name of the config file as we use the filename to pick-up the mapping file.
- Configure the AD work folder in Administration > B/OSS adsync.workdirectory field.
- Create ad-import-mapping.csv file in the {adsync.workdirectory} folder and add the following entries to the file. Note that the following content is sample only; you should modify the entries based on your requirements.
#File should have only one of tenant-OU-mapping or tenant-Group-mapping # Mapping of Active Directory OUs to CPBM Tenant #CPBM-Account-Id,CPBM-Account-Name,AD Organizational Unit [tenant-OU-mapping] AA000002,Citrix-engineering,"OU=CloudPortal,OU=CPG Group,DC=cpsmblr,DC=local" # Mapping of Active Directory Groups to CPBM Tenant #CPBM-Account-Id,CPBM-Account-Name,AD-Group-Name [tenant-Group-mapping] AA000003,Citrix-finance,CitrixFinanceADGroup [group-profile-mapping] #AD-Group-Name,CPBM-User-Profile Default,User Finance,Billing User Management,Power User
The CPBM account can be mapped to either an OU in AD or a group in AD.
