Each resource type has a management mode. The management mode defines what features are available to the resources of this type.
Unmanaged Resource
Any resource that is present in the target system but is not managed by the CoreOne Suite is called a unmanaged. On the target system configuration you can enable “show unmanaged resources”. If you do so, you see all unmanaged resources that an identity is member of. You can even add or remove resources and the action will be tracked in the audit trail. But as this is an unmanaged resource, this has no effect on processes like reconciliation and so on.
Linked Resource
This is the most common use case. A resource was created in the target system and the CoreOne Suite shall now manage the membership of those resources. Processes like reconciliation takes places for those resources but we do not manage the lifecycle of the resource itself. This means, if someone would rename or delete the resource in the target system, no actions will be taken by the CoreOne Suite.
Managed Resource
If a resource is managed, the CoreOne Suite also manages the lifecycle of the resource. This means resource of this type can be created from the CoreOne Suite, changes to the resource in the target system will be detected and corrected and the group memberships of this resources are completely managed. In order to configure a managed resource, you will need to configure a resource definition template and a resource provisioning configuration.
