4.1 Installation

This section explains how to install the driver separately from the Identity Manager installation, when the driver has been released outside of an Identity Manager release. The installation can for example, extend schema, install additional iManager plug-ins, and install the configuration files for the driver.

The installation process installs the driver shim on the server where Identity Manager is installed or on a server where you will use Remote Loader to run the driver. It also installs the driver information and policies on the iManager server.

If Identity Manager and iManager are on the same system, you only need to run the install program once. If they are on different systems, you need to run the installation multiple times.

  1. Download the Identity Manager driver for JMS. You can get this driver from http://download.novell.com/index.jsp

  2. Unzip the download package in a location of your choice on the server.

  3. Run the installation program for your platform:

    • On Windows*: Double-click jmsinstall.exe to run the installation program
    • On NetWare®: Enter java -jar sys:/path jmsinstall.jar (IMPORTANT: the slash is required)
    • On Linux: Run jmsinstall_linux.bin
    • On Solaris*: Run jmsinstall_solaris.bin
    • On AIX*: Run jmsinstall_aix.bin

  4. Review the Introduction page, then click Next.

  5. On the License Agreement page, review the agreement. If you accept, select I Accept the terms of the License Agreement and click Next.

  6. On the Install Components page, select the items you want to install, then click Next.

    • Install JMS Driver: Select this item to install the driver on the same server as Identity Manager.

    • Install Policies for JMS Driver: Select this item to install the driver policy files on the iManager system.

  7. Select the location where you want to install the files, then click Next.

  8. (Conditional) If you are installing to the Identity Manager server, you might see the Schema Extension page. Specify the administrator username, in LDAP format (for example: cn=admin,o=novell). Specify the administrator password, then click Next.

    This login information is necessary so that the installation can update the schema for your eDirectory tree.

    After this step, there might be a delay as the installation is prepared, and a Please Wait message is displayed.

  9. On the Pre-Installation Summary page, review the information. Click Install.

    A message is displayed indicating that the installation is being completed.

  10. On the Installation Complete page, review the summary, then click Done.

  11. Continue with Section 5.0, Configuring the Driver.
