Unstructured Target Collector

AIX uses a data structure which requires the configuration in the Unstructured Targets tab to collect targeted data and correlate it with the identityAttribute for Accounts and identityAttribute for Account Groups. For more information on the Unstructured Targets tab, refer to Unstructured Targets Tab.

For AIX target permissions, the Unstructured Targets functionality will be enabled if UNSTRUCTURED_TARGETS feature string is present in the application.

Multiple target sources can be specified and configured for an application which supports unstructured targets. This will be useful for applications which want to fetch resource information from multiple target sources.

The AIX Target Collector supports the aggregation of files and directories under the specified file system path(s). Only direct access permissions will be correlated for Users and Groups. For UNIX platforms direct access, this means ownership of file or directory.
