This section covers some general categories of customization:
Section 8.1, Configuring Driver Parameters
When you change driver parameters, you are tuning driver behavior to align with your network environment. For example, you might find the default publisher polling interval to be shorter than your synchronization needs require. Making the interval longer could improve network performance while still maintaining appropriate synchronization.
Section 8.2, Configuring Data Synchronization
The real power of Novell® Identity Manager is in managing the shared data itself. This section covers some common customizations for the NT Domain driver, such as Exchange integration and local/global group resolution.
NOTE:When you customize data synchronization, you must work within the supported standards and conventions for the operating systems and accounts being synchronized. Data containing characters that are valid in one environment, but invalid in another, causes errors.
Also, keep in mind that attribute names are case sensitive.
