Product Description

The Identity Manager plug-in for iManager lets you administer and manage Identity Manager.

NetIQ Identity Manager 4.6 is a comprehensive identity management suite. It allows organizations to manage the full user life cycle, from initial hire, through ongoing changes, to ultimate retirement of the user relationship, and it also provides the means to audit and generate reports of the user's life cycle for compliance. Identity Manager includes capabilities for automated provisioning and de-provisioning of user accounts, managing passwords, and managing user data across your organization's directories, applications, databases, and OS platforms. Through streamlined user administration and processes, Identity Manager helps organizations reduce management costs, increase productivity and security, and comply with government regulations.

System Requirements

For information about system requirements, see the Identity Manager Setup Guide on the Identity Manager Documentation Web site.

NetIQ provides two ways to install and configure Identity Manager in your environment: an integrated installation solution and installation programs for each component or a group of components. Integrated Installation program enables you to install and configure all components, using default values for many of the settings. You can use the Integrated Installation program to install all components on one computer or in a distributed environment. With the standalone installation programs, you can install one or more of the Identity Manager components separately or customize a large portion of the setting. For more information, see Understanding the Integrated and Standalone Installation Processes on the Identity Manager Documentation Web site
