Configure
BlackBerry AtHoc
User Sync Client components

The
BlackBerry AtHoc
User Sync Client consists of the following components:
  1. Data adapter
    : Accesses the data source, either .csv or LDAP, to obtain information that is specified by the configuration.
  2. Data processor
    : Uses the XSLT to transform XML data into a
    BlackBerry AtHoc
    -friendly format and prepares data for the web API data synchronizer.
  3. Web API data synchronizer
    : Sends data to the
    BlackBerry AtHoc
    web API. User data is split into several web API packages to adapt the capability of the web API interface.
  1. If required, configure system wide settings for SMTP email and Proxy settings in the configuration file.
  2. Set the log file folder path. Decide if you want to save the interim XML files. You should use the “false” value for the <deleteInterimFiles> node for first time integration.
  3. Disable all sections by setting the “enabled” attribute to “false”. This configuration enables you to test each component separately by enabling them as required.
  4. Configure the data adapter section of the integration file under the <dataAdapter> node. Set the "enable" attribute on the <dataAdapter> node to “true”. Configure any other nodes under this node according to the requirements.
  5. Run the
    AtHocDataIntegrator.exe
    file.
  6. Check the XML output file produced by the data integrator.
  7. If everything looks good in the XML output, create a new XSLT file to write the transformation logic for the file generated by the data integrator.
  8. Specify the file path to the XSLT file.
  9. Run the
    AtHocDataIntegrator.exe
    file again.
  10. Check the XML output file produced by data processor.
  11. Configure <dataSynchronizer> node according to requirements.
  12. Set the “enable” attribute to “true.”
  13. Run the
    AtHocDataIntegrator.exe
    file again.
  14. If everything is correct, the users, hierarchies, and distribution lists should be synchronized correctly.
