Enterprise level, mostly IdM system undergo one (or) another dependency application changes (Such as patching, upgrade, DR etc.,) Aggregations will fail due to unavailability/Connection issue of target system. To avoid these failures delaying aggregation is an only option. but delaying aggregation is a manual task & requires certain amount of time. Below Rule Runner Task will help to delay scheduled aggregation task by reducing manual effort.
Step 1:
Create a Custom file & specify Task Schedule which needs to be delayed
<?xml version='1.0' encoding='UTF-8'?>
<!DOCTYPE Custom PUBLIC "sailpoint.dtd" "sailpoint.dtd">
<Custom name="Task-Schedule-Custom">
<Attributes>
<Map>
<entry key="TaskSchedule">
<value>
<List>
//mention important task schedules (Name of Task Schedules, not Task definition) that needs to be delayed
<String>Task-Schedule-1</String>
<String>Task-Schedule-2</String>
<String>Task-Schedule-3</String>
</List>
</value>
</entry>
</Map>
</Attributes>
</Custom>
Step 2:
Below is rule where actually business logic resides.
<?xml version='1.0' encoding='UTF-8'?>
<!DOCTYPE Rule PUBLIC "sailpoint.dtd" "sailpoint.dtd">
<Rule language="beanshell" name="Task Schedule Automation">
<Source>
import java.util.List;
import sailpoint.object.*;
import sailpoint.object.TaskDefinition;
import java.util.Date;
//Getting Custom file into rule
Custom taskObj = context.getObjectByName(Custom.class,"Task-Schedule-Custom");
List schedule = taskObj.get("TaskSchedule");
//iterating list of Scheduled task which mentioned in Custom file
for (String taskschedule : schedule)
{
TaskSchedule tasksch =(context.getObjectByName(TaskSchedule.class,taskschedule));
//setting how much time wanted to delay
Date date=new Date();
date.setSeconds(172800);
//setting the delay time in seconds (i.e, 172800 = 48 hours)
tasksch.setNextExecution(date);
context.saveObject(tasksch);
context.commitTransaction();
}
return "Success";
</Source>
</Rule>
Step 3:
After importing both the xmls, Create new Rule Runner task (Setup--> Task--> New Task --> Run Rule ) & select Rule (Task Schedule Automation) from drop down & Click on save & execute (only you wanted to delay the task schedule).
