Note: This functionality is available for LDAP user stores only.

Specifies the name of the attribute that stores the image. This attribute must exist in the user store, but should not be defined in the directory configuration file (directory.xml).

Specifies the URI of an alternate image that Identity Manager displays when an image is not available for a certain user.
Identity Manager includes a default image that is displayed when another image is not available; however, you can use this field to override the default image.
The default image is located in IdentityMinder.ear\user_console.war\ui\images\user_photo_default.jpg
