Specify Object Information

Object information is specified by supplying values for various parameters.

To specify object information

1. Locate the ImsManagedObject element in the User Object section.
2. Supply values for the following parameters:
   • Name

     Specifies a unique name for the managed object.

     Note: This parameter is required.

   • Description

     Contains a description of the managed object.

   • ObjectClass

     Specifies the name of the LDAP object class for the user object. The object class determines the list of available attributes for an object.

     If attributes from multiple object classes apply to an object type, list the object classes in a comma-delimited list. For example, if an object contains attributes from the person, organizationalperson and inetorgperson object classes, add these object classes as follows:

     objectclass="top,person,organizationalperson,inetorgperson"

     Each LDAP directory includes a set of predefined object classes. Refer to the directory server documentation for information about predefined object classes

     Note: This parameter is required.

   • ObjectType

     Specifies the type of the managed object. The valid value is User.
