Custom Bulkloader Task for Bulk Load Client

Products

• CA Identity Manager

Issue/Introduction

The Bulk Loader Client should use a customized copy of the default Bulk Loader Task rather than the default one.

Is there a setting or configuration option in the Bulk Loader Client that allows specifying which Bulk Loader Task it should use?

Environment

Release : 14.x
Component : Identity Manager

Resolution

A custom Bulk Load task for the bulkloader client is not supported. The Bulk Loader Client will not be able to connect to, or use, a customized copy of the Bulk Loader Task. The Bulk Loader always runs the default task.

The customization needs to be done in the imbulkloadclient.properties file and the (custom) task(s) that the feeder process will call. In custom tasks (for example, Custom Modify User), configure the required attributes and any other task requirements.

 

The following command specifies which properties file to use.

imbulkloadclient.bat -c "C:\Program Files (x86)\CA\Identity Manager\Bulk Loader\conf\imbulkloadclient.properties" -f CSV -i "C:\Program Files (x86)\CA\Identity Manager\Bulk Loader\bin\input.csv" -b 2000 -v

 

"C:\Program Files (x86)\CA\Identity Manager\Bulk Loader\conf\imbulkloadclient.properties"

The above file is used to configure which tasks to use:

      actionToTaskMapping=create.Create User;modify.Modify User;delete.Delete User

For example, alter it to:

     actionToTaskMapping=create.Custom Create User;modify.Custom Modify User;delete.Custom Delete User
