Performs a test on attribute values of the current object in either the current operation or the source data store. It can be logically thought of as If Operation Attribute or If Source Attribute, because the test is satisfied if the condition is met in the source data store or in the operation. The test performed depends on the specified operator.
Specify the name of the attribute to test. Supports variable expansion. For more information, see Variable Selector.
Select the condition test type.
Operator |
Returns True When... |
---|---|
Available |
There is a value available in either the current operation or the source data store for the specified attribute. |
Equal |
There is a value available in either the current operation or the source data store for the specified attribute, which equals the specified value when compared by using the specified comparison mode. |
Greater Than |
There is a value available in either the current operation or the source data store for the specified attribute that is greater than the content of the condition when compared by using the specified comparison mode. |
Less Than |
There is a value available in either the current operation or the source data store for the specified attribute that is less than the content of the condition when compared by using the specified comparison mode. |
Not Available |
Available would return False. |
Not Equal |
Equal would return False. |
Not Greater Than |
Greater Than or Equal would return False. |
Not Less Than |
Less Than or Equal would return False. |
Contains the value defined for the selected operator. The value is used by the condition. Each value supports variable expansion. For more information, see Variable Selector. The operators that contain the value field are:
Equal
Greater Than
Less Than
Not Equal
Not Greater Than
Not Less Than
The condition has a comparison mode parameter that indicates how a comparison is done.
Mode |
Description |
---|---|
Case Sensitive |
Character-by-character case sensitive comparison. |
Case Insensitive |
Character-by-character case insensitive comparison. |
Regular Expression |
The regular expression matches the entire string. It defaults to case insensitive, but can be changed by an escape in the expression. For more information, see the Oracle Java documentation. The pattern options CASE_INSENSITIVE, DOTALL, and UNICODE_CASE are used but can be reversed by using the appropriate embedded escapes. |
Source DN |
Compares by using semantics appropriate to the DN format for the source data store. |
Destination DN |
Compares by using semantics appropriate to the DN format for the destination data store. |
Numeric |
Compares numerically. |
Binary |
Compares the binary information. |
Structured |
Compares the structured attribute according to the comparison rules for the structured syntax of the attribute. |
The operators that contain the comparison mode parameter are:
Equal
Greater Than
Less Than
Not Equal
Not Greater Than
Not Less Than
The example uses the condition If Attribute when filtering for User objects that are disabled or have a certain title. The policy is Policy to Filter Events, and it is available for download from the NetIQ Support Web site. For more information, see Downloading Identity Manager Policies
in the NetIQ Identity Manager Understanding Policies Guide. To view the policy in XML, see 001-Event-FilterByContainerDisabledOrTitle.xml.
The condition is looking for any User object that has an attribute of Title with a value of consultant or sales.
