红帽全球峰会9.2. Templates for managing IdM group accounts externally
The following templates can be used for various user group management operations in IdM. The templates show which attributes you must modify using ldapmodify to achieve the following aims:
- Creating a new group
- Deleting an existing group
- Adding a member to a group
- Removing a member from a group
The templates are formatted in the LDAP Data Interchange Format (LDIF). LDIF is a standard plain text data interchange format for representing LDAP directory content and update requests.
Using the templates, you can configure the LDAP provider of your provisioning system to manage IdM group accounts.
- Creating a new group
dn: cn=group_name,cn=groups,cn=accounts,dc=idm,dc=example,dc=com
changetype: add
objectClass: top
objectClass: ipaobject
objectClass: ipausergroup
objectClass: groupofnames
objectClass: nestedgroup
objectClass: posixgroup
uid: group_name
cn: group_name
gidNumber: GID_number- Modifying groups
- Deleting an existing group:
dn: group_distinguished_name changetype: deleteAdding a member to a group:
dn: group_distinguished_name changetype: modify add: member member: uid=user_login,cn=users,cn=accounts,dc=idm,dc=example,dc=comDo not add stage or preserved users to groups. Even though the update operation completes successfully, the users will not be updated as members of the group. Only active users can belong to groups.
- Removing a member from a group:
dn: distinguished_name changetype: modify delete: member member: uid=user_login,cn=users,cn=accounts,dc=idm,dc=example,dc=com
Before modifying a group, obtain the group’s distinguished name (DN) by searching using the group’s name.
