Role Definition Generator Command

Valid on Windows and UNIX

The Role Definition Generator command parses the endpoint type metadata generated from Connector Xpress and generates the following file:

• endpoint type.jar–Contains the JIAM mapping files, framework, managed object definition files, resource bundle file and task role and screen definition file.

  This command has the following format:

  • (Windows) RoleDefGenerator.bat [d domain -l -h hostname -o directory -n -p port -u username -y password_file.txt ] [endpoint_type ...]
  • (UNIX) RoleDefGenerator.sh [d domain -l -h hostname -o directory -n -p port -u username y password_file.txt ] [endpoint_type ...]
  • -d domain

    Specifies the CA Identity Manager domain. If not specified, the role definition generator defaults to the CA Identity Manager domain.

  • -l

    Specifies that the Role Definition Generator lists endpoint types, but does not generate role definitions.

  • -h hostname

    Defines the host name of Provisioning Server.

  • -o directory

    Defines the output directory.

    Default: '.' that is, the current working directory.

  • -n

    If specified, TLS is not used. TLS communication is enabled by default.

  • -p port

    Specifies the Provisioning Server port number. If not specified, then 20390 is used, or 20389 is used if –n is specified.

  • -u username

    Defines the Provisioning Server admin user name.

  • -y password_file.txt

    Specifies the file that contains the Provisioning Server admin user password. If not specified, the utility prompts you for the password. The password file is in UTF-8 format. The first line of the file is used as the password.

  • Endpoint_type

  Defines the name of the endpoint type (long form).

Example: List all endpoint types on a Provisioning Server

This example lists all endpoint types on a Provisioning Server:

RoleDefGenerator.bat -d EXAMPLEDOMAIN -h im.example.com -u adminusername -l

Example: Generate role definitions for a dynamic endpoint type

This example generates role definitions for YourDynamicEndpointType.

RoleDefGenerator.bat -d EXAMPLEDOMAIN -h im.example.com -u adminusername YourDynamicEndpointType
