2.0 Installing the Driver Files

By default, the Bidirectional eDirectory driver files are installed on the Identity Manager server at the same time as the Identity Manager engine. The installation program extends the Identity Vault’s schema and installs the driver shim. It does not create the driver in the Identity Vault (see Section 4.0, Creating a New Driver Object).

If you performed a custom installation and did not install the Bidirectional eDirectory driver on the Identity Manager server, you must install the files on the Identity Manager server, using the instructions in Planning Your Installationin the NetIQ Identity Manager Setup Guide for Linux or Planning to Install the Engine, Drivers, and Plug-ins in the NetIQ Identity Manager Setup Guide for Windows.

For the Bidirectional eDirectory driver to work, you must also install the change-log module on the connected system (eDirectory). For information on change-log installation, see Installing the Change-Log Module on a Remote eDirectory server.
