Preface

These Release Notes contain information for the following products that was not available when the IBM Security Verify Governance manuals was printed:

Adapter Features and Purpose                                                 

The IBM Security Verify Governance Adapter for SAP Netweaver (R/3) with optional GRC support is designed to create and manage accounts on a target SAP NetWeaver ABAP server. The adapter runs in "agentless" mode and communicates using standards BAPI and RFC methods supplied with the SAP server. Communication to these BAPI and RFC methods is enabled by the SAP Java Connector (Jco) API.

The IBM Security Verify Governance adapters are powerful tools that require Administrator Level authority. Adapters operate much like a human system administrator, creating accounts, permissions and home directories. Operations requested from IBM Security Verify Governance server and IBM Security Verify Governance Identity Manager server will fail if the adapter is not given sufficient authority to perform the requested task.

License Agreement

Review and agree to the terms of the IBM Security Verify Governance Adapter License prior to using this product. The license can be viewed from the "license" folder included in the adapter package.

Known Limitations

Internal#

APAR#

Case# / Description

SVGAD-4609

 

 

 

Adapter sends current date for the date attributes and doesn't allow empty value on the account form in case of IBM Verify Identity Governance or IBM Security Verify Governance Identity Manager.

 

SVGAD-2572

 

 

 

Full name attribute cannot be added / updated using the adapter because the Full name attribute is read only field in the target as well.

 

 

 

 

 

To use IGI with SAP GRC install the ARCS-SAP adapter agent on SAP resource.

For more information, visit Introduction to the ARCS-SAP adapter agent at https://www.ibm.com/docs/en/sig-and-i/10.0.1?topic=sap-introduction-arcs-adapter-agent

 

 

 

 

 

The Adapter for SAP NetWeaver does not retrieve descriptive text from SAP for most support data classes.

 

 

 

 

Language Attribute under both Communication and Default tabs can be search only by language key, e.g. EN.

 

 

 

 

Modifying an account by reassigning a group that has been previously removed from the account is not working correctly. This appears to be a problem with standard SAP functionality.

 

 

 

 

Invalid email format (described in 4.1.7 Email Address) is not reported as error during add and modify operations

 

 

 

 

It is possible to change attributes on the non-CUA/CUA Master License Data tab only if the attribute "Contractual User Type" (ersapnwlicutype) is supplied in the Add or Modify operation request.

 

 

 

 

Recon with filter (eruid=*) is case sensitive due to RMI dispatcher limitation.

 

 

 

 

If custom extension xsl file is missing the operation hangs.

 

 

 

 

After modifying adapter service parameters in the IBM Security Verify Governance Identity Manager server, the dispatcher process hosting the adapter must be restarted.

 

 

 

 

The adapter reports error or failure status to IBM Security Verify Governance Identity Manager for all provisioning operations if a BAPI/RFC executed during the operation reports an error or failure. There are some cases when a SAP BAPI/RFC may report an error incorrectly. The BAPI/RFC actually executes successfully. One specific example is on user creation. If no user company addresses have been defined in SAP, the BAPI function BAPI_USER_CREATE1 reports an error to the adapter, but actually creates the user account in SAP. When the adapter reports the error to IBM Security Verify Governance Identity Manager, IBM Security Verify Governance Identity Manager server will not update the account in its repository resulting in an inconsistency between IBM Security Verify Governance Identity Manager and SAP. The incorrect error status indicator cases are reported to SAP support as they are identified, to be corrected by SAP in support packs. In the meantime, IBM Security Verify Governance Identity Manager users should leverage the full or filtered reconciliation features of IBM Security Verify Governance Identity Manager to maintain consistency between IBM Security Verify Governance Identity Manager and SAP repositories.

 

 

 

 

IBM Security Verify Governance Identity Manager converts date values to the local time zone of the user. As a result, there can be cases where dates returned from SAP via the adapter to IBM Security Verify Governance Identity Manager server appear to lose or gain a day. This occurs when any account attribute is modified in IBM Security Verify Governance Identity Manager. IBM Security Verify Governance Identity Manager will perform the time zone conversion as the modified account is being saved back into the IBM Security Verify Governance Identity Manager request queue for subsequent provisioning.

 

RTC 181535

 

Limitation on to pick-up the value form drop-down list

 

Currently, value for Attribute ersapnwusergroups (user group) cannot be picked from a drop-down list. We need to provide value for this attribute manually.

 

 

 

RTC 161745

 

 

Limitations in Changing Password in CUA system:

 

Adapter uses BAPI_USER_CHANGE to set and change user's password in the CUA's central system.

The initial password is distributed to the child systems when a user is created. However, for password change, the adapter changes existing passwords only locally and will not change them in the central system i.e. the password change is not propagated to the child system due to BAPI limitation.

 

 

 

 

Limitations on Switching between Productive (Permanent) and Initial (Temporary) password

 

During modify operation; the existing password of the account will be modified to Productive if "Set Password as Productive" is checked. A modify operation is needed before a password change operation to change the status of "Set Password as Productive" flag. This is a send only attribute. The value of the flag won't be stored in ITIM/ISIM.

 

 

 

 

Limitations on support for SAP Productive Passwords

 

1.     SAP versions supported by the adapter require SNC to be enabled to set productive passwords.

2.     In a CUA environment, the adapter cannot set the password to be productive due to a limitation in the SAP interface.

 

 

 

 

In CUA deployments, the adapter must be configured against the CUA master system. All attributes of accounts are managed via the master system. For all attributes except roles and profiles, the adapter will manage and synchronize account attribute state against the CUA master.

 

 

 

 

When assigning a CUA child system to a user account, if the user account has group assignments, and at least one of those groups does not exist on the CUA child, then the account will not be created on the child. This is a limitation with SAP CUA implementation, and is reproducible using the native SAP user management transaction SU01.

 

 

 

 

Country attribute under Person Tab depends on attribute Company from the same tab. After recon value of attribute Country might be changed to correspond to Company address.

 

 

 

 

In CUA environments, when assigning role/profile from master or child systems to user without system assignment, SAP automatically creates an associated CUA system assignment. IBM Security Verify Governance Identity Manager will not have visibility of the automatically assigned CUA system assignment until next reconciliation for the user.

 

 

 

 

When performing a filtered reconciliation, the filter value must be defined in uppercase (e.g.(eruid=USER1) ). This is due to an inconsistency within the BAPI methods for user management provided by SAP. This limitation affects retrieval of CUA profiles assigned to the requested user account.

 

 

 

 

In CUA environments there is no known method for distinguishing a composite role from a noncomposite role. This means that reconciliation will return all roles from a CUA implementation.

 

 

 

 

SAP allows different telephone numbers to be set as the "Primary telephone number", such as the Mobile Phone number. During reconciliation, SAP will return the Mobile phone number as the Primary telephone number if a Telephone number has not been defined for an account in SAP.

 

 

 

 

Role assignment modification does not work when attempting to simultaneously add a directly assigned single role while removing a composite role which also contains the given single role. It is recommended to perform this operation as two separate steps, i.e. remove the composite role, then add the single role.

 

 

 

 

The HR Personnel number attribute is no longer supported. This attribute is present on the account form to allow adoption of the sample ABAP extension for HR Linking.

 

 

 

 

The ABAP extension for password management is no longer supported. As a result, the adapter manages account passwords in accordance with the default features and constraints supported by SAP. Further to this, SAP does not enable external code components, such as this adapter, to distribute productive password changes within a CUA environment.

Please refer to the following SAP notes for additional background, details and limitations: 376856, 830493, 1287410, 991968, 1300104.

 

 

 

Last Logged in Date attribute will always be on the same time zone, as of SAP NetWeaver Server's time zone.

SVGAD-5097 / SVGAD-6458

 

 

Customers upgrading from SAP NW Adapter version older than 10.0.10 to version 10.0.10 or later must replace encrypted passwords in SAPNotify.props file with clear text passwords before upgrade. The encryption algorithm has been upgraded from AES/ECB to AES/GCM to address security vulnerabilities (CWE-327, CWE-325), making old encrypted passwords incompatible. After upgrade, passwords will be automatically re-encrypted with the secure algorithm. Change {protect}property={encr}oldvalue to {protect}property=cleartextpassword before upgrading.

 

 

Support data reconciliation as the language given on service form

 

This version of adapter is modified to reconcile support data as per the language given on service form. The details are as below: -

E.g. Academic title, Company, User group, Menu, Output device, Parameter, User type.

E.g. Roles and Profiles.

E.g. Timezone, Country, Language, Security Policy, Special version, Title, Type.

 

Multi Byte Character Support Limitations

All character data transferred between IBM Security Verify Governance Identity Manager Server, the adapter, and SAP ABAP server are encoded as UTF-8. The adapter supports provisioning of multi byte characters to and from a directly connected SAP ABAP Unicode server. Provisioning of ASCII characters is supported for Non-Unicode SAP ABAP servers. The adapter does not support provisioning of multi byte characters to any Non-Unicode ABAP server. Extended ASCII characters are not tested or supported for Non-Unicode SAP ABAP servers.

Non Transactional Provisioning

The adapter does not execute provisioning operations within a transactional context. Some provisioning operations require multiple steps to be executed against the SAP server. A consequence of this situation is that errors or warnings which occur after the first step may result in a partially complete provisioning operation. A possible method to handle for this limitation is to use the IBM Security Verify Governance Identity Manager workflow features to execute compensating actions. For example, issue a filter reconciliation for the given user account in order to synchronize the account state between IBM Security Verify Governance Identity Manager and the target server.

Enable Deactivated Password on Modify Limitation

The "Deactivate password" attribute is supported by both the Add and Modify operation. Enabling this attribute on the account form will cause the password for an account to be deactivated in SAP. However, disabling the "Deactivate password" flag is NOT supported in the modify operation. The adapter will not enable the password for an account if the "Deactivate password" flag is unchecked on a modify operation. To re-enable a deactivated password for an account, a request to change the password for the account must be made instead. The state of the disable password flag in IBM Security Verify Governance Identity Manager will not be synchronized until reconciliation is performed.

SAP Adapter Extension Function for HR Linking is no longer supported

Earlier version of SAP adapter had included optional ABAP extension functions for HR Linking, Account Locking, and Productive Password setting and synchronization. Since there are no BAPIs or APIs to do the HR link, adapter code used to directly access SAP tables.  However, SAP does not recommended accessing SAP tables directly.  Therefore even though the source code sample versions of the extensions are included in adapter package, support for HR linking has been stopped.

SAP Connection parameters not marked as required in the Service form

SAP connection parameters are not marked as required because, SAP Netweaver (R/3) with optional GRC support adapter can create connection with SAP Netweaver server using either the provided service form attributes or by using the optional RFC parameter attribute present in service form.

SAP JCo certified:

 

JCo 3.1.7

Note: SAP NW Adapter was tested and certified using JCo v3.1.7. SAP may release a newer version of JCo since then and for reasons unknown, SAP may not make JCo v3.1.7 available for download. The newer version of JCo may work as is with the adapter.  However, if there are any issues related directly to the newer version of JCo, it will be addressed in the next release of the adapter. On Windows platforms, JCo 3.1 requires the Visual Studio 2013 C/C++ runtime libraries to be installed on the system. If not present, download and install the "Visual C++ 2013 Redistributable Package" from the Microsoft knowledge base article 4032938 and choose the package, which corresponds to the used Locale and JVM bit-width (x64 for 64-bit or x86 for 32-bit).

 

SAP GRC Access Control certified:

 

SAP GRC Access Control 10.0

 

       Supported IBM Security Verify servers:

* Unless this document specifies a specific fix pack version of ISVG Identity Manager v10, we expect the adapter to work with ISIM 6 as well. However, it will only be debugged and fixed from the perspective of ISVG-IM v10.
