Define an Attribute Mapping

User attribute mapping lets you map one common name to the underlying directory schema of multiple user directories. Mapping the same common name to the underlying schema of each user directory in the environment results in a universal schema for the user information. Each user attribute mapping is specific to the user directory in which it is defined.

You can use one or more of the following attribute mapping types to define mappings that identify the same user information across multiple user directories:

• Alias
• Group Name
• Mask
• Constant
• Expression
