The application server provides the runtime framework in which the identity applications, directory abstraction layer, and Workflow Engine execute. The identity applications are packaged as a Java Web Application Archives, or WAR files.The installation process enables you deploy the WAR files to the application server.
The following WAR files apply to the URL for a component of the identity applications:
IDMProv for the User Application
idmdash for the Dashboard
idmadmin for Identity Applications Administration
The identity applications run on an Apache Tomcat application server, included in the installation kit. You can also use your own installation of Tomcat. For more information about the application server requirements, see Considerations for Installing Identity Manager Components
