Making Novell Nsure Resources Work for You

Using real-world configurations from a sampling of customers who have implemented provisioning solutions, we assembled a representative configuration, designed to give you a head start on implementation. However, it's impossible to get an out of-the-box configuration that works for every business environment.

The default configuration will help you get Novell Nsure Resources up and running very quickly in your lab. To implement a complete Nsure Resources solution you must complete the following processes:


Install and test the default configuration in the lab.

The following sections will help you complete this requirement:

Setting Up the Workforce Tree
Setting Up Novell iManager and eGuide
Preparing the Lab for Novell Nsure Resources
Configuring DirXML Drivers


Analyze your business practices, modify the lab configuration to address your business requirements, and move the customized systems to production.

The work of customizing Nsure Resources requires careful analysis, clear and timely communication, and expert knowledge of XML and XSLT. Working with an Nsure Resources expert can make a successful transition to production much more efficient.

Moving Novell Nsure Resources from the Lab to Production will help you understand the complexity of deploying DirXML in production and what to expect if you choose to work with an Nsure Resource expert.


Activate Novell Nsure Resources.

Nsure Resources is based on Novell DirXML technology. DirXML and DirXML drivers must be activated within 90 days of installation, otherwise they will shut down. Activating Novell Nsure Resources explains how to request and install the necessary activation credential.
