The installation and setup of NetIQ® Identity Manager Fan-Out Driver Platform Services includes tasks performed on the platform and the Core Driver. This section describes the installation tasks that are performed on the platform system. For details about platform configuration and administration tasks, see Section 12.0, Configuring and Administering Platform Services.
The Core Driver tasks include defining UID/GID Sets, defining Platform Sets, and defining Platform objects. These tasks must be completed before you can use Platform Services. For more information about these tasks, see Section II, Core Driver Administration.
After the planning process has been completed, installation of Platform Services for Linux and UNIX by experienced system programmers familiar with the local environment and the Identity Manager Fan-Out Driver should take about half an hour.
