Upgrade Workflow from CA Identity Manager r12

If approvals are required for the individual add/remove actions within the AccumulatedProvisioningRolesEvent, additional configuration is required for updating roles, tasks, and workflow process definitions.

Note: This additional configuration is required only if deployments need to approve individual actions within the AccumulatedProvisioningRolesEvent, and the CA IdentityMinder environment was created in a release before CA Identity Manager r12 CR1.

To approve or reject individual actions within the AccummulatedProvisioningRolesEvent, an approver uses a specific approval screen that lets that user Approve or Reject option button for each action. If at least one action is approved, the event moves into the approved state and gets executed. If all actions are rejected, the event moves into the rejected state and then to the canceled state.

Note: To view the status of each action, use the View Submitted Tasks task to view the details of the AccumulatedProvisioningRolesEvent.

This procedure includes references to admin_tools, which represents the folder for the CA IdentityMinder Administrative Tools.

The Administrative Tools are placed in the following default locations:

To enable workflow for the AccumulatedProvisioningRolesEvent

  1. In the Management Console, select an environment.
  2. Click Role and Task Settings.
  3. Import the appropriate Upgrade-12-to-12.6-RoleDefinitions.xml file (either the Organization or NoOrganization version).

    Note: For new environments created with CA Identity Manager r12.0 CR1 or later, the AccumulatedProvisioningRolesUpdate.xml import is not necessary as the approval task is available with new environments.

  4. Restart the application server.
  5. Verify that the Approve Accumulated Provisioning Roles task exists by using View Admin Task.
  6. Run the Archive.bat program, which is located in the admin_tools\Workpoint\bin folder.
  7. Import the AccumulatedProvisioningRolesApproveProcess.zip, which is located in the admin_tools\Workpoint\bin folder.
  8. Open Designer.bat to verify that this process definition now exists.

    Workflow now supports the AccumulatedProvisioningRolesEvent.
