How To:Add additional source Domino attributes in the connector that are not available by default for V3.3 and below (4302141)

There are some Domino LDAP  attributes that are not available by default in the connector such as ResourceCapacity or ResourceType.

This article explains how to add additional attributes into the connector that will allow you to use during custom mappings and rules.

NOTE: This only pertains to version 3.3 and below.

1. Identify the Domino LDAP attribute to be added.
2. Create a new connector.
3. Activate the new connector:
   - Go to '<Connector> | <right-click> | Advanced Settings...'
   - Deselect all operations (Provision, Update, Delete) and click OK
   - Click 'Save | Activate'
   - Select the connector and click 'Run Connector Now' (this should create the connector's subfolder in the Connections folder)
4. Go to ..\Program Files (x86)\Quest Software\Quest Coexistence Manager for Notes\Directory Connector\tools\GenericLdapConnector
5. Find ConnectorConfig.xml
6. Right click | Edit
7. Search for "<Attributes>" and you should find it within the <SelfConfig> section. For example:

  <SelfConfig>
  ..
  <Attributes>nsUniqueId;entryDn;entryId;entryUUID;guid;distinguishedName</Attributes>

8. Edit the <Attributes> tag and add the required Domino LDAP attribute. For example:

    <Attributes>nsUniqueId;entryDn;entryId;entryUUID;guid;distinguishedName;ResourceCapacity</Attributes>

9. Save the file.
10. Go back to the CMN Console.
11. Select 'Directory Connector | Connectory Settings'.
12. Click 'Activate' and restart the service.
13. Go to '<Connector created in #2> | <right-click> | Advanced Settings...'
14. Click 'Update Source' and click OK.
15. Once the window closes, go to '..\Program Files (x86)\Quest Software\Quest Coexistence Manager for Notes\Directory Connector\Connections\<Connector Name>\Attributes'.
16. Edit the '<Connector Name>_<Object Type>_src_attrs' file, search for the required attribute (e.g. ResourceCapacity) and add it, if not present.
17. Save the file.
18. Go back to 'CMN Console | <Connector created in #2> | <right-click> | Advanced Settings...'
19. Select all required operations (Provision, Update, Delete).
