Hi,

Just after some advice for an AL I'm building. It's purpose is to use
ITIM data to link two AD domains so that OCS will work between them.
My problem is rather simple though...

1. I have an ITIM role name in a properties file & need to lookup in
ITIM to get it's roleDN
2. Then I use the roleDN to search for Person(s) that are members of
the role
3. For each member, using the personDN I search for their AD accounts
using erparent
4. For each account, I obtain the objectsid from a remote domain and
write it into the OCS originator attr in the local AD domain.

The problem is that my AL starts with a Lookup which means it runs
single pass, but I need it to loop through all people that are members
of the role.

So, my question: Should I be using another AL to do the initial lookup
and then call a second AL which starts with the iterator? Perhaps
there is a better way to try and do this?

Thanks
Karl

Hi Karl,

Just drop your Lookup Connector into a Loop (Connector Loop)
which will in turn cycle all components that you hang underneath
it for each entry found. It's like building your own Feed-Flow in
the Flow section :)
