Extend the Active Directory Schema for CA IdentityMinder

To manage Office Communications Server 2007, extend the Active Directory schema for CA IdentityMinder.

To extend the Active Directory schema for CA IdentityMinder

1. Add the following attributes to the Provisioning_Server_HOME\data\ADS\schema.ext file:

   msRTCSIP-ArchivingEnabled

   Specifies whether archiving is enabled. This attribute is an integer mask. You can leave this attribute blank.

   Valid values are:

   • 0 - Use the global default values defined by msRTCSIP-ArchiveDefault and msRTCSIP-ArchiveFederation.
   • 1 - Archive all communications.
   • 2 - Do not archive.

   Note: For more information about the attributes values, see http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb663647(office.12).aspx.

   msRTCSIP-OptionFlags

   Specifies the different options enabled for the user or contact object. This attribute is a bit-mask value of type integer.

   Default: This attribute has a value 256 when enabling users natively (enhanced presence).

   As the value for this attribute is a bit-mask, add the required values together. For example, to enable enhanced presence (256) and remote call control (16), enter a value of 272 (256+16) as the value for this attribute.

   Note: For more information about this attribute, see the Attribute Descriptions page in the Office Communications Server 2007 Active Directory Guide.

   msRTCSIP-PrimaryHomeServer

   Defines the DN of the OCS server where the account is located. For example:

   CN=LC Services,CN=Microsoft,CN=<Servername>,CN=Pools,CN=RTC Service,CN=Microsoft,CN=System,DC=<domain>,DC=<com>
   

   msRTCSIP-PrimaryUserAddress

   Defines a user address in the form: sip:username@domain.com

   msRTCSIP-UserEnabled

   If TRUE, specifies that OCS features are enabled. If you omit or set this value to FALSE, the OCS is disabled.

   proxyAddresses

   Defines the sip proxy address in the form: sip:username@domain.com

   Note: This attribute is a multivalued field also used by Exchange. We recommend that you add rather than replace any existing values.

2. Restart the CA IdentityMinder – Connector Server (C++) service.
3. Next, determine the correct ADS common attribute values.

Note: For more information about extending the schema, see the sections Extend the ADS Schema and Modify the schema.ext File in the CA IdentityMinder Connectors Guide. For a full list of OCS attributes including their possible values, see the following Microsoft Technet OCS reference page:
