ARS 6.9 Script Execution Policy

Hi, I have ARS 6.9 and I need to add script execution policy to current policy which does the following:

  • Displays dialog box with Yes/No question (Create an user account in domain B?)
  • If answer to question is Yes
    • displays dialog box to enter credentials for other domain B
    • displays form from which user selects appropriate OU in domain B
    • creates user account and puts it into selected OU in domain B

NOTE: Current policy creates new user account in domain A and goal of adding script execution policy as last step is the following: If answer to question is Yes user with the same First Name, Last Name, SamAccountName, Display Name will be created in domain B using entered credentials with required permissions.

For some reason script module below has not been executed. Is ARS capable of executing scripts which deal with GUI elements? Also here I have implemented dot source technique since Choose-ADOrganizationalUnit function is inside C:\script\ChooseADOrganizationalUnit.ps1 script. I am very familiar with PowerShell but newbie in ARS.

 

function onPostCreate($Request)
{
Import-Module ActiveDirectory
Add-Type -AssemblyName PresentationFramework
Add-PSSnapin Quest.ActiveRoles.ADManagement
Connect-QADService -Proxy

$dn=$DirObj.Get(“distinguishedName”)

$givenName=Get-QADUser $dn | Select-Object -ExpandProperty FirstName
$surName=Get-QADUser $dn | Select-Object -ExpandProperty LastName
$samAccountName=Get-QADUser $dn | Select-Object -ExpandProperty SamAccountName
$name=Get-QADUser $dn | Select-Object -ExpandProperty Name
$displayName=Get-QADUser $dn | Select-Object -ExpandProperty DisplayName
#$userPrincipalName=Get-QADUser $dn | Select-Object -ExpandProperty UserPrincipalName


$toCreateUserinDSC = [System.Windows.MessageBox]::Show('Would you like to create a user in B domain?','New User','YesNo','question')

if($toCreateUserinDSC -eq "Yes") {
$cred=Get-Credential
. "C:\script\ChooseADOrganizationalUnit.ps1"
$ou=Choose-ADOrganizationalUnit -HideNewOUFeature
New-ADUser -GivenName $givenName `
-Surname $surName `
-SamAccountName $samAccountName `
#-Description $user.Description `
-Path $ou.DistinguishedName `
-Name $name `
-DisplayName $displayName `
-UserPrincipalName ($samAccountName + '@domainB.local') `
-AccountPassword (ConvertTo-SecureString -AsPlainText (-join (33..126 | ForEach-Object {[char]$_} | Get-Random -Count 10)) -Force) `
-Enabled $true `
-ChangePasswordAtLogon $true '
-Server dc1.domainB.local '
-Credential $cred
}
}

  • Active Roles is not really capable of producing a prompt like that.

    An option I would suggest is having a virtual attribute added - for example "edsvaUserDomain" and prompting for this in the user creation wizard?

    All you would have to do is:

    1) Add the virtual attribute to the user class
    2) Create a property value generation policy that offers up the domains of in your environment as options.

    User will then be asked to select one of the values - you could set a default in the rule.

    I would be curious as to WHY you are doing user creation this way? Are these "secondary" accounts for existing users?

    It just seems strange that you would go to the trouble of creating a script policy for what is a built-in operation in Active Roles.
