Setting up custom custodian attributes

Custodian Manager automatically synchronizes a number of standard custodian attributes with the corresponding values in an external source like Active Directory. These standard attributes include the custodian's first and last names, department, and start and end dates. If you want to synchronize any additional attributes, you can define custom attributes and map them to the corresponding attributes in the external source.

To set up a custom custodian attribute

  1. In the Custodian Manager home page, click Custodian Attributes.
  2. In the Custodian Attributes page, click New Custodian Attribute.
  3. In the Custom Custodian Attribute page, type the name and an optional description for the attribute.
  4. If you want to make the attribute visible when you add or edit the details of a custodian, select Display this attribute on the custodian details page. If you do not mark an attribute as visible then it does not appear on these pages, and you cannot assign it to your custodians.
  5. Select Set as primary attribute if you want to make this attribute the primary attribute with which to identify custodians in the Discovery Accelerator client. When client users define the criteria for a search or analytics rule, they can nominate custodians for whom to search by specifying the primary attribute values.

    Every custodian must have a value for the primary attribute, and every value must be unique.

  6. In the Synchronize box, specify the details of the attribute in Active Directory or a Domino LDAP directory with which to synchronize the new attribute.
  7. If you chose to synchronize the attribute with attributes in both Active Directory and a Domino LDAP directory, select which of the two sources has priority.
  8. If you want to enter a free-text value for the attribute instead of choosing from a list of supplied values, select Allow free text values to be entered.
  9. To add or modify the values from which to choose when setting the attribute in the custodian properties pages, do the following:

    • To add a new value, click New Value and then type the required name and description.

    • To list any existing attribute values, type the name or partial name of the value in the Find box. You can also click Download All Attribute Values to make a comma-separated value (CSV) file that lists the values.

    • To edit an existing value, click Edit at the right of the row and then make the required changes. Custodian Manager automatically updates the properties of any custodian to which you assigned the value.

    • To delete an existing value, click Delete at the right of the row. Custodian Manager automatically removes the value from the properties of any custodian to which you assigned it.

  10. Click OK.
