Provisioning Policy

When SailPoint provisions new accounts to the IBM Tivoli Directory Server connector, it uses the attributes on the Create Profile page as instructions or a template for what to include in the account. This page is also referred to as the provisioning policy.

Note

During creation of an account, ensure that the value of Full Name must be the same as the value of CN in the dn attribute.

For example, if the value of dn is CN=Jeff Smith,OU=Sales,DC=Fabrikam,DC=COM then the value of Full Name must be Jeff Smith.
