2.3 Installing the Driver

There are two different ways to install the driver:

2.3.1 Installing the Driver Locally

If you are going to install the driver locally, the server that runs the driver is required to have the following installed:

  • eDirectory™ 8.73 SP8 or above, or 8.8 SP1 or above

  • SAP R/3 version 4.5B or later.

The SAP User driver is installed during the installation of Identity Manager. See Installing Identity Manager in theIdentity Manager 3.5.1 Installation Guide for the installation instructions.

2.3.2 Installing the Driver Remotely

If you do not want to install eDirectory and Identity Manager on the server that has the SAP User application installed on it, use the Remote Loader service. The Remote Loader service is installed and then connects to the server running Identity Manager. For installation instructions see, Deciding Whether to Use the Remote Loader in the Novell Identity Manager 3.5.1 Administration Guide.
