14.0 Association Statistics

By using the Identity Manager Association Statistics feature, you can find the association details of the identities managed by Identity Manager. Identity Manager uses the association statistics to obtain the association count for the Identity Manager drivers.

To obtain active, inactive, and system managed objects for a driver, run the association statistics job. You can schedule the association statistics job on a daily, weekly, monthly, or yearly basis. By default, the job is scheduled to run every week. To modify the configuration setting for this job, use iManager. For more information, see Modifying the Association Statistics Job Configuration in the NetIQ Identity Manager Jobs Guide.

The Association Statistics dashboard displays the association details. Alternatively, you can view the details by exporting the associations to a file.

NOTE:

  • The association count for the drivers is per server. If an object is associated with more than one driver, the association count is calculated uniquely for each driver.

  • If you have more than 200,000 associations, NetIQ recommends you to set the maximum heap size for the driverset to 2 GB or more. For information about setting the heap size, see Using iManager to Configure the Java Environment Parameters.

To view the association statistics:

  1. Log in to iManager.

  2. Click to view the Identity Manager administration page.

    NOTE:Make sure that you enable pop-ups on your browser before you run the Association Statistics tool.

  3. In the Administration section, click Association Statistics.

    Alternatively, you can access Association Statistics from the Roles and Tasks page. Expand Identity Manager node and click Association Statistics.

  4. In the Driverset field, click to browse and select the driverset on which you want to run the association statistics.

  5. Click OK. The association count displays the previously computed result.

    iManager displays the association count for active, inactive, and system managed objects for all the drivers associated with the driverset.

    iManager considers groups and organization units as system managed objects. iManager considers an object inactive, if the Login Disabled attribute in the object is set to true and the object has not been modified within the last 120 days. All the remaining objects are considered as active managed objects.

  6. Click Recompute and then click OK to obtain the updated results.

    When a driver is disabled on the server, iManager does not display the driver in the dashboard.

  7. To view the association count for drivers associated with a different server, select the server from the Driver Information From drop-down list.

  8. Click Export Association Statistics to export the system details and association count details for the drivers associated with the server.

  9. To export the objects associated with a specific driver, click next to the required objects and save the file.

    NOTE:In case of Fan-Out drivers, only unique objects are exported. If an object is associated with multiple instances of a Fan-Out driver, iManager displays all the association counts in the dashboard. However, if you choose to export the objects in a file, iManager exports only the unique objects.

  10. Click Actions and select the required option to organize the association count dashboard.
