RSA Product Set: Identity Governance & Lifecycle
RSA Product/Service Type: Access Fulfillment Express
RSA Version/Condition: 6.8.1, 6.9.1, 7.0.0
Platform: Any
Issue
The default Netsuite AFX connector has the main Netsuite WSDL file which contains the main Netsuite URL (webservices.netsuite.com) and no option to specify a different URL. So it is not possible, using the default Netsuite AFX connector to connect to the sandbox instance of Netsuite (webservices.sandbox.netsuite.com).
Tasks
Modify the hosts file on the AFX server to override the name resolution of main Netsuite instance hostname and supply the sandbox Netsuite instance IP address instead.
Resolution
nslookup webservices.netsuite.com


nslookup webservices.sandbox.netsuite.com


su -
echo "<sandbox-IP> webservices.netsuite.com" >> /etc/hosts

 
Notes
Using this workaround, it will only be possible to connect to either main or sandbox instances of Netsuite on the same AFX server (not both at once).
