Default Value

category

CDATA

The category helps grouping different entitlements with the same type name into categories. For example, Active Directory supports a variety of different types of groupings: local groups, security groups, and distributions lists. All are of group type name, but from different categories, such as security grouping and other grouping.

#REQUIRED

id

CDATA

The ID (id) identifies a type uniquely per managed system. There cannot be two entitlements with the same type ID defined for the same managed system (driver).

#REQUIRED

name

account | group | other

The name provides a non-localized identifier for the type. Typically, the name should resemble or be equal to the English display name of type. Type names don't have to be unique for each managed system. There can be two or more entitlements with the same type name defined for the same managed system (driver).
