The Active Directory Adapter schema.dsml file
identifies all of the standard Windows account
attributes.
About this task
Modify this file to identify the new extended attributes
in the Active Directory Server.
For more information about the attributes in this file, see schema.dsml file.
To update the schema.dsml file,
complete the following steps:
Procedure
- Change to the \ADprofile directory,
where the schema.dsml file has been created.
- Edit the schema.dsml file to add an
attribute definition for each extended attribute.
The Object Identifier (OID) must be incremented by 1, based on the last entry in the file. For
example, if the last attribute in the file uses the OID 1.3.6.1.4.1.6054.3.125.2.
67, the
first new attribute uses the OID 1.3.6.1.4.1.6054.3.125.2.
68.
Consider starting a new
range of numbers for your custom attributes. For example, start custom attributes with OID
1.3.6.1.4.1.6054.3.125.2.100. This prevents duplicate OIDs if the adapter is upgraded to support new
attributes that are standard for newer versions of Windows.
-
Add the new attributes to the account or group class as appropriate.
For example, add the following attribute definition under the erADAccount section of the
schema.dsml file:
<attribute ref="erADDate" required="false"/>
