Special Characters in Global User Names

The Provisioning Manager allows you to create global user names that include special characters, such as the back slash character (\). However, the Identity Manager Server does not support user names with special characters.

When you create a global user in the Provisioning Manager with a special character, Identity Manager attempts to create a corresponding user in the Identity Manager user store. Errors occur and the Create User task fails in the Identity Manager user store.

Errors also occur if you try to delete a global user with special characters in the Provisioning Manager.
