ume.virtual_groups.group_names_separator

Default value is ; (semicolon).

Use this property to define the separators used in the virtual group name list (ume.virtual_groups.names). Change this value if you want to include a semicolon in the group name.

ume.virtual_groups.names

By default, this property is undefined, meaning no virtual groups are created. By entering a series of names here, the User Management Engine creates virtual groups with these names.

By entering the following, the UME creates three virtual groups, titled Marketing, Production, and Distribution:

Marketing;Production;Distribution

ume.virtual_groups.trim_group_names

Default value is TRUE.

Enables the removal of leading and trailing spaces in the property ume.virtual_groups.names. This enables you to enter a more readable list without having to worry about spaces at the beginning and end of the names. If you want to have leading or trailing spaces in the name, set this property to FALSE.

ume.virtual_groups.user_attribute

Defines the logical user attribute, based on which the UME builds the virtual group.

To continues the above example, set this value to department. The UME assigns users with the value Marketing for the attribute department to the virtual group Marketing.

ume.virtual_groups.user_attribute.multivalue

Default value is TRUE.

If the user attribute you selected for ume.virutal_groups.user_attribute supports multiple values, setting this value to TRUE, means the user can belong to multiple virtual groups.

The user attributes do not support multiple values by default, but if you mapped an attribute to an LDAP attribute with multiple values, you could read for a user the attribute department, which has the values Marketing and Distribution. This user would then belong to both virtual groups Marketing and Distribution.

ume.virtual_groups.user_attribute_namespace

Defines the namespace of the user attribute which is used to define the virtual groups.
