Editing a user information source

Use the UISConfigUtil utility to edit a user information source.

Procedure

  1. Using SSH, log in to your IBM QRadar Console as the root user.
    1. User name: root
    2. Password: <password>
  2. Type the following command to edit a user information source: UISConfigUtil.sh update <name> -t <AD|ISAM|ISIM|ISFIM> [-d description] [-p prop1=value1,prop2=value2,...,propn=valuen]

    Where:

    • <name> Is the name of the user information source you want to edit.
    • <AD|ISAM|ISIM|ISFIM> Indicates the user information source type. To update this parameter, type a new value.
    • [-d description] Is a description of the user information source. This parameter is optional. To update this parameter, type a new description.
    • [-p prop1=value1,prop2=value2,...,propn=valuen] Identifies the property values required for the user information source. To update this parameter, type new properties. For more information about the supported parameters, see Creating a user information source.

    For example:

    ./UISConfigUtil.sh update "UIS_AD_update" -t AD -d "UIS for AD" -p "searchbase=DC=local"
