1.2 Key Features

The following list describes key features of the WorkOrder driver:

Schedules work orders:

The WorkOrder driver allows work to be scheduled for a specific

date and time.

Supports dependent work orders:

If a work order is dependent on another work order, it is

not processed until the dependent work order has been successfully processed.

Repeats work orders:

The driver allows for work orders to be repeated at a set interval.

Facilitates tracking and accountability for work orders:

Each work order carries with it the

creator and main contact of the work order, a description of the action taken, and the errors it
encountered.

1.3 Support for Standard Driver Functions

There are several functions that most Identity Manager drivers support. The following list explains
whether or not the WorkOrder driver supports these standard functions.

Local Platforms:

The WorkOrder driver can run on the same platforms as the Metadirectory

engine. See “

Metadirectory Server

” in “

System Requirements

” in the

Identity Manager 3.6.1

Installation Guide

Remote Platforms:

The WorkOrder driver works on all the platforms supported by the

Remote Loader. See “

Remote Loader

” in “

System Requirements

” in the

Identity Manager 3.6.1

Installation Guide

Role-Based Entitlements:

The WorkOrder driver does not support Role-Based Entitlements.

Password Synchronization Support:

The WorkOrder driver does not support Password

Synchronization.

Synchronized Objects:

The WorkOrder driver only processes events that pertain to work

orders. It does not synchronize other objects and attributes within the Identity Vault.

1.4 Terminology

The following terms are used by the WorkOrder driver:

Due Date:

The date and time the work order is to be executed.

Content:

The definition of the work that is to be processed.

Interval:

The amount of time until the work order is to be repeated.

Dependency:

The distinguished name of any other work orders that must be completed before

the current work order.

Status:

The value returned by the driver after the work order was processed (Configured, Error,

etc.).

Process Log:

The description of the events that occurred when the work order was processed.

Delete Due Date:

The date the work order will be deleted from the Identity Vault.

Pending:

A work order that is not yet due.
