3.0 Customizing the Driver

This section provides information about available resources for customizing the Novell® Identity Manager 3.6.1 driver for RACF on mainframes (z/OS operating system).

The driver includes a sample starter set configuration that you can use as a starting point for your customization. You must customize the driver to conform to the requirements of your installation before running it for production work.

Customization of the driver is accomplished by tailoring the global configuration values, policies, and filters. The event filters determine whether eDirectoryâ„¢, RACF, both, or neither is the source of User and Group objects and their various attributes. The policies control the way that information flows from the source to the destination. Global configuration values are used by the sample policies to control their processing.
