Is there any way that we can programatically create a Documentum user by using Active Directory information? (I have very little knowledge on ADT and know that it stores user info thats all.)
In Documentum Administrator you can sync the ActiveDirectory Users by running the Job dm_LDAPSynchronization
. This should do.
Hope this helps, Max
edit: You can also create a User using DFC-Methods:
IDfUser newUser = (IDfUser) session.newObject("dm_user");
newUser.setUserName("New User");
newUser.setUserLoginName("newuser");
newUser.setString("user_source","inline password");
newUser.setString("user_password","new_password");
newUser.setDefaultFolder("/newuser",true);
newUser.save();
Instead of putting inline_password as the user_source, you probably can choose LDAP
and remove the user_password
. This most probably needs more information, but I don't have the DFC Documentation with me at the moment. I could look it up in the evening, but for now this should give you a good point to start.
You could also make a Server Method out of it and assign it to a custom Job.
BUT: I don't think that you can CREATE new LDAP-Users from Documentum...they need to be present in the ActiveDirectory when you import them into Documentum!
