Novell Vibe 3 and later enables you to integrate with Novell Messenger 2.2 and later. This integration displays a user’s Messenger presence information within Vibe. For information about where presence information is displayed in Vibe, see Sending an Instant Message from within Vibe
in the Novell Vibe OnPrem 3 User Guide.
When you click a user’s presence icon, the Profile Quick View is displayed, which enables you to send an instant message to the user, view the user’s personal workspace, follow the user, and more.
To successfully integrate Novell Messenger with Novell Vibe, you must complete the following tasks:
The Allowed Service User’s function is to log in to the Messenger system and retrieve presence information, which is then displayed in Vibe.
For information about how to create an Allowed Service User in ConsoleOne, see Integrating Novell Vibe OnPrem with Novell Messenger
in the Novell Messenger 2.2 Administration Guide.
After you have defined an Allowed Service User in ConsoleOne, as described in Integrating Novell Vibe OnPrem with Novell Messenger
