12-30 Oracle Fusion Middleware Administrators Guide for Oracle Virtual Directory from a proxied directory, Oracle Virtual Directory automatically converts the DN for the group entry itself and the uniquemember or member attributes if these attributes are in the DN Attributes list. To add attributes to the Map DN Attributes list:

1. Click Add. The Select DN Attribute dialog box appears.

2. Select the attribute you want to add.

3. Click OK.

Primary Adapter The primary adapter is the primary driver of data in the Join View and is used by the Join View Adapter to construct its directory hierarchy. Entries in the Join View Adapter only exist if they exist in the primary adapter. The primary adapter can be any adapter. Refer to Join View Adapters Primary Adapter on page 2-14 for more information. Bind Adapter A list of one or more adapter names to be used for bind processing. By default, the primary adapter is used, however you can override this and list one or more other adapters. The Join View Adapter attempts to complete joins against the target adapter and process the bind. If the bind succeeds, processing stops and success is returned to the client. If the bind fails, the Join View Adapter continues trying each adapter in the Bind Adapter list. Only when all bind adapters have failed is a bind failure returned. This is useful when user identities exist in multiple directories and you want to give clients the opportunity to try password validation against multiple directories. Join Rules Perform the following steps to create join relationships for Join View Adapters:

1. Click the Create button. The Join Rule dialog box appears.

2. Select the adapter from the Adapter list to join with the Join View adapter. 3. Select the type of join relationship for the Join View Adapter by choosing a join relationship from the Type list. Refer to Join Relationships on page 2-16 for more information on join relationships. 4. Enter a join condition in the Condition field as follows: ■ For Simple Joiners and OneToMany Joiners, enter a condition in the form remoteattribute=primaryadapterattribute where remoteattribute is an attribute in the target joined adapter and primaryadapterattrinute is an attribute from the primary adapter. ■ For Shadow Joiners, enter a unique key attribute name from the primary adapter, for example, uid, that you can use to locate records in a rename. For Shadow Joiners, the condition is not an equality condition as it is with other joiners. ■ For ConditionalSimpleJoiners, extend a Simple Joiner type of condition using the ; character and an additional condition, such as employeenumber0 for which the join only occurs on. Note: Translate only those attributes you know must be used by the client application. Entering all possible DN attributes may not be necessary and can consume some a small amount of additional CPU time in the proxy.
