The following prerequisites apply to all platforms. Additional platform-specific prerequisites are listed in the next section by platform.
Supported Browsers. To run iManager, you will need a workstation with Internet Explorer 6 SP1 or later (recommended), Netscape 7.1 or later, or Mozilla 1.4 or later installed.
eDirectory LDAP Server. You must have a Novell® eDirectoryTM LDAP server in a secure configuration. If eDirectory is on a different machine than iManager, the configuration of the iManager portal (typically performed during the installation) prompts you for credentials to perform and LDAP bind to a server in the tree. The server must have eDirectory 8.6.2 or later installed.
Admin-Equivalent Rights. For the initial installation of iManager into the eDirectory tree, you must have admin-equivalent rights to run the iManager Configuration Wizard. For subsequent installations, you must have container admin rights.
Server Memory. You must have a minimum of 512 MB of RAM in the server where you are installing iManager. 1024 MB is recommended.
Port Setup. To avoid port conflicts, find out which ports are in use on the server where you will install iManager and determine whether they will conflict with ports used by iManager. Tomcat installed with iManager attempts to use ports 8443, 8009, 8080, or 8005. If these ports are in use by another service, such as eDirectory, a problem is likely. See the installation instructions for each platform for more information.
