Preparing for CSV-Based Synchronization
If you want to use a CSV file for your accountActions table, some additional
configuration is necessary. This is because the Microsoft ODBC CSV driver
cannot access the accountActions table unless the file has a .csv file extension.
To prepare for RDBMS synchronization using a CSV file, follow these steps:
Step 1
Rename the accountactions CSV file installed on the computer running
Cisco Secure ACS to
accountactions.csv
.
Assuming a default installation of Cisco Secure ACS, the accountactions file is at
the following location:
C:\Program Files\CiscoSecure ACS v
x
.
x
\CSDBSync\Databases\CSV
Where x.x refers to the version of your Cisco Secure ACS.
Step 2
Edit the Windows Registry:
a.
Access the following key:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Cisco\CiscoAAAv
x
.
x
\CSDBSync
b.
Change the OdbcUpdateTable value from
AccountActions
to
accountactions.csv
.
Note
You cannot perform synchronization using a relational database table
rather than a CSV file when the OdbcUpdateTable value is
accountactions.csv
. To do so, you must change the
OdbcUpdateTable value back to
AccountActions
.
c.
Save your changes to the Registry.
Cisco Secure ACS is configured to perform CSV-based synchronization only,
using a file named accountactions.csv.
Step 3
At a DOS prompt, follow these steps:
a.
Type:
net stop CSDBSync
and then press Enter.
b.
Type:
