Tivoli Federated Identity Manager 6.2.2 Fixpack 6 (6.2.2-TIV-TFIM-FP0006)

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• FIM alias service used to let you set the attribute for the user
  name, however, in the 6.2.1 alias model this is not used as
  it is no longer required the users to be in LDAP.   The
  migration tool works fine as long as you were using the default,
  but if you had changed that value the migration tool will
  generate incorrect output with the uid attribute the
  principalName.
  

Local fix

• None, please get test fix for this issue.
  

Problem summary

• The default value of the attribute that the alias service uses
  to denote the user identifier is "uid". The LDAP Migration Tool
  supports only the default value and does not work for any value
  other than the default value.
  

Problem conclusion

• The fix for this APAR is contained in the following maintenance
  packages:
  | fix pack | 6.2.2-TIV-TFIM-FP0004
