Discuss SailPoint IdentityIQ Engineer Exam Topic 4 Question 13

Can the following IdentitylQ object be extended to store client-specific data by updating the corresponding .HBM file?

Solution: Link

AYes

BNo

Suggested Answer: B

In SailPoint IdentityIQ, certain objects, such as the Link object, cannot be directly extended by updating the corresponding .HBM (Hibernate Mapping) file. Modifying or extending core IdentityIQ objects typically requires a deeper level of customization involving the extension of the application schema and possibly custom Java code. The .HBM files are part of IdentityIQ's internal persistence framework, and altering them is not a supported or recommended method for extending objects in a production environment. Customization should instead be done using SailPoint's supported extension points, such as using ManagedAttributes or CustomAttributes within the IdentityIQ application framework. For guidelines on extending IdentityIQ objects, refer to the SailPoint IdentityIQ Customization Guide and best practices documentation.

Definitely a yes, it’s a common practice in customization.

I’ve heard it’s possible, but not without some risks.

I disagree, I think it’s more complicated than that.

Alesia 11 months ago

Yes, you can extend it by updating the .HBM file.

Dominque 12 months ago

From what I practiced, updating the .HBM file should allow for client-specific data storage, so I would lean towards yes.

Estrella 12 months ago

I feel like this is a trick question. I want to say no because extending objects can sometimes lead to issues, but I can't recall the exact details.

Felicitas 12 months ago

I remember a similar question about modifying .HBM files, and I think the answer was yes, but it might depend on the specific implementation.

I think we can extend the IdentitylQ object by updating the .HBM file, but I'm not entirely sure if there are limitations on the types of data we can store.

Dick 1 year ago

Okay, I think I've got a strategy for this. I'll need to review the documentation on extending IdentitylQ objects and see if there are any specific guidelines or limitations around updating the .HBM file.

Carmen 1 year ago

I'm a bit confused on this one. I'll need to do some research on the IdentitylQ object and how it interacts with the .HBM file before I can give a confident answer.

Ranee 1 year ago

I think the key here is understanding how the .HBM file is structured and what kind of changes are allowed. If we can update the file without breaking the IdentitylQ object, then the answer should be yes.

Dianne 1 year ago

Hmm, this seems like a tricky one. I'll need to think through the process of updating the .HBM file and how that would impact the IdentitylQ object.

Carolynn 1 year ago

I'm not sure about this one. I'll need to review the .HBM file structure and how IdentitylQ objects are typically extended.

Hold up, isn't that just the way to do it? I mean, how else would you store client-specific data, by carving it into stone tablets?

Hmm, I'm not so sure about that. Updating the .HBM file sounds like a recipe for disaster. Might as well just start from scratch.
