A DirXML 1.1a driver configuration can be run with an Identity Manager driver shim and the Metadirectory engine, with no changes to the driver configuration (unless you are using Password Synchronization 1.0; see Section 3.4, Upgrading from Password Synchronization 1.0 to Identity Manager Password Synchronization).
However, to edit a DirXML 1.1a driver configuration, you must
either use the DirXML 1.1a iManager plug-ins or ConsoleOne®,
or run the wizard that converts DirXML 1.1a configurations to Identity
Manager format so you can edit the configuration using the Identity
Manager iManager plug-ins. See Managing
DirXML 1.1a Drivers in an Identity Manager Environment
and Upgrading
a Driver Configuration from DirXML 1.1a to Identity Manager Format
in
the Novell
Identity Manager 3.0.1 Administration Guide.
NOTE:Running an Identity Manager driver configuration with a DirXML 1.1a driver shim is not supported.
To take advantage of the features of Identity Manager, review the sample configuration provided for NT, and see Section 3.4, Upgrading from Password Synchronization 1.0 to Identity Manager Password Synchronization or Section 3.5, Upgrading to Support Identity Manager Password Synchronization. See also the Novell Identity Manager 3.0.1 Administration Guide for information about the new features.
