6-6 Administrators Guide for Oracle Business Data Synchronization Server
Table 6–9 lists the parameters for calendar filtering.
6.7 Configuring the Microsoft Exchange 2007 Connector to Use Active Directory
The parameters of the Active Directory section listed in Table 6–10
enable you to configure the Exchange 2007 Connector to use Microsoft Active Directory to query for
and obtain Autodiscover SCP URLs.
6.8 Configuring Event Receiving for the Exchange 2007 Connector
The parameters of the Event Receiver Section listed in Table 6–11
, enable you to configure the event receiver, a web service-based component used by the Exchange
2007 Connector’s PIM Transport for event notification. The event receiver establishes subscriptions for Create, Update, and Delete events for each user, maintains the
subscription metadata, receives change events from a client-access server, and informs BDSS when users have changes that require synchronization through the Run-Time
Library API.
Table 6–9 Parameters for Configuring Calendar Filtering
Parameter Description
Filter Condition The URI to calendarfilter.xml.
Table 6–10 Parameters for the Active Directory Section
Parameter Description
Port The LDAP port number used when querying the Active
Directory. The default port is 636 for secure LDAP. The non-secure port is typically 389.
ServerN where N is a unique, nonzero ordinal that
specifies an order preference.
Enter the name of the Active Directory server. The connector uses the name in the LDAP URL when querying the Active
Directory. For example, if you enter server360007, then the connector uses ldap:server36007:ldapPort... If you enter
server36007.us.oracle.com, then the connector uses ldap:server36007.us.oracle.com:ldapPort...
Use SSL Whether the connector should use secure LDAP. The default is
value is true. In a development environment, set the value to false because the Domain Controller is not enabled for secure
LDAP.
Referral Can be follow, throw or defer. The default value is follow.
Max Query Result Size Max number of results to return per Active Directory query. The
default value is 20. Max Query Time
The time in milliseconds to wait for an Active Directory query to return. The default value is 30 seconds 30000 milliseconds.
Read Timeout The time in milliseconds to wait for a response before timing
out. The default value is 5000. Connect Timeout
The time in milliseconds to establish a connection to Active Directory before timing out. The default value is 5000.
Client Certificate Path Set to true if Use SSL is set to true and the Domain Controller
requires a client certificate. The default value is false. Using Client Certificates
Indicates if the client provider uses LDAP certificates. The default value is false.

6.9 Configuring the Exchange 2007 Connector to Use the Microsoft Autodiscover Service
The Exchange 2007 Connector attempts to discover information about a user’s Exchange account by querying the Microsoft Exchange 2007 Autodiscover service.
There are Service Connection Point SCP URLs that point to the locations where the service is available. The connector does the following when attempting to discover a
user:
1.
Try each configured SCPN URL
2.
If that fails, query each Active Directory server listed in the ServerN configuration for a list of SCP URLs and attempt each of them.
3.
If the first two steps fail, the connector attempts the following default URLs:
–
protocol:domainName:portautodiscoverautodiscover.x ml
–
protocol:domainName.autodiscover:portautodiscovera utodiscover.xml
Using the parameters listed in Table 6–12
, the Exchange 2007 Connector can forgo searching for the Autodiscover service if you provide the SCPN URLs.
Table 6–12 lists the following parameters of Auto Discovery section that enable you to
configure the connector to use the Microsoft Exchange 2007 Autodiscover service.
Table 6–11 Parameters for the Event Receiver Section
Parameter Description
CHANGE_ME The name of an Exchange 2007 connector as it appears in the
NAME Column of the CONNECTORS
table. The default value should be the URL of the deployed event receiver for the
connector. Status Frequency
The frequency, in minutes, that Exchange provides a notification for each subscription. The default value is 1.
Subscription Status Factor The event receiver performs a check on all subscriptions to verify that the Exchange server has not terminated any subscriptions.
This parameter sets frequency in which this check occurs. The frequency in which this check occurs is the value set for this
parameter multiplied by the value set for the Status Frequency parameter. For example, if you set the Status Frequency parameter
to 1 minute, and then set the Subscription Status Factory parameter to 3, then the event receiver performs the subscription check every
3 minutes. The default value is 3.
