1.0 RACF Driver Overview

The Novell® Identity Manager 3.6.1 driver for RACF on mainframes (z/OS operating system) synchronizes data between the Identity Vault and a connected system running RACF. The driver runs on the target z/OS system. The Identity Vault runs on any Identity Manager supported platform and communicates with the driver on the target z/OS system over a secure network link.

The driver gives you access to RACF user and group attributes through the z/OS RACF schema. The driver also allows you to issue arbitrary TSO commands on the z/OS system. Identity Manager gives you access to eDirectoryâ„¢ objects and their attributes.
