Import Role and Task Settings

Role and task settings are defined in XML files, named Role Definitions files. You can import predefined Role Definitions files to support specific sets of CA Identity Manager functionality (for example, Smart Provisioning) or import Role Definitions files from one environment to another.

Note: You can also import role definitions for custom connectors that are created with Connector Xpress. You create these role definitions files with the Role Definitions Generator. For more information, see the Connector Xpress Guide.

Perform the following procedure to import role and task settings.

Follow these steps:

1. In the Management Console, click Environments.

   A list of CA Identity Manager environments appears.

2. Click the name of the CA Identity Manager environment where you want to import the role and task settings.

   The Properties screen for that environment appears.

3. Click Role and Task Settings, and click Import.
4. Complete one of the following actions:
   • Select one or more Role Definitions files to create default roles and tasks for the environment.

     To select all available Role Definitions files, click Select/Deselect All.

   • Type the path and file name for the role definitions file to import or browse for the file. Then click Finish.
5. Click Finish.

   The status is displayed in the Role Configuration Output window.

6. Click Continue to exit.
