This section provides information for planning the installation and configuration for the driver.
You can install the driver shim on the Identity Manager server or the Remote Loader server.
For more information about the platforms supported with Identity Manager or the Remote Loader, see the NetIQ Identity Manager Technical Information website.
The Remote Loader loads the driver and communicates with the Identity Manager engine on behalf of the driver installed on the remote server. For information about configuring the Identity Manager drivers with the Remote Loader, see Configuring the Remote Loader and Drivers in the NetIQ Identity Manager Setup Guide for Windows.
