Issue/Introduction

Identity Suite administrators utilize the Bulk Loader to perform large-scale data imports within the Virtual Appliance. This guide outlines the standard configuration required for the Bulk Loader properties file to ensure successful data ingestion and connectivity to the Identity Manager Environment.

Environment

Identity Suite 14.5

Virtual Appliance 14.5

Resolution

To configure the Bulk Loader properties file for Identity Suite Virtual Appliance, follow these steps:

1. Prepare the Properties File Create a properties file (e.g., bulkloader.properties) and define the following mandatory parameters:

   • serverUrl=http://<hostname>:8080/iam/im/TEWS6/identityEnv
   • uniqueIdentifierAttrName=%USER_ID%
   • actionToTaskMapping=create.Create User;modify.Modify User;delete.Delete User
   • primaryObject=USER
   • user=imadmin
   • feederParserClass=com.ca.identitymanager.feeder.parser.CSVParser
   • actionAttrName=action
   • isProtectedBySiteMinder=false

2. Configure Password Security

   • Locate the password field in the properties file.
   • Recommendation: For security, use the encrypted value generated by the Identity Suite tools. If you are configuring for the first time, you may insert the password in plaintext; the system will attempt to encrypt this value upon the first execution.

3. Validate Deployment

   • Ensure the host references are replaced with the fully qualified domain name (FQDN) assigned to your Virtual Appliance.
   • Execute the Bulk Loader tool from the command line, pointing to this configuration file to initiate the import.
