X Deploying OpenText Identity Manager for High Availability

High availability ensures efficient manageability of critical network resources including data, applications, and services. We support high availability for your OpenText Identity Manager solution through clustering or Hypervisor clustering, such as VMWare Vmotion. When planning a high-availability environment, the following considerations apply:

  • You can install the following components in a high-availability environment:

    • Identity Vault

    • OpenText Identity Manager engine

    • Remote Loader

    • Identity applications, except Identity Reporting

  • When you run the Identity Vault in a clustered environment, the OpenText Identity Manager engine is also clustered.

    NOTE:OpenText Identity Manager does not support load balancing LDAP or LDAPS communication between Identity Vault and Identity Applications.
