Performs a test on attribute values of the current object in the destination data store. The test performed depends on the specified operator.
Specify the name of the attribute to test. Supports variable expansion. For more information, see Section 3.6, Variable Selector.
Select the condition test type.
Operator |
Returns True When... |
---|---|
Available |
There is a value available in the destination data store for the specified attribute. |
Equal |
There is a value available for the specified attribute in the destination data store that equals the specified value when compared by using the specified comparison mode. |
Greater Than |
There is a value available for the specified attribute in the destination data store that is greater than the content of the condition when compared by using the specified comparison mode. If mode="structured", the content must be a set of <component> elements; otherwise, it must be text. |
Less Than |
There is a value available for the specified attribute in the destination data store that is greater than the content of the condition when compared by using the specified comparison mode. If mode="structured", the content must be a set of <component> elements; otherwise, it must be text. |
Not Available |
Available would return False. |
Not Equal |
Equal would return False. |
Not Great 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 Section 3.6, 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 Sun’s Web site. 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 to govern group membership for a User object based on the title. The policy is Govern Groups for User Based on Title Attribute, and it is available for download from the NetIQ Support Web site. For more information, see Downloading Identity Manager Policies
in Understanding Policy Components
. To view the policy in XML, see 004-CommandGroupChangeOnTitleChange.xml.
The policy checks to see if the value of the title attribute contains manager.
