1.4 Activating Drivers

Any new driver that is created requires a separate activation. After purchasing the integration module that the driver is associated, you will receive the activation details in your NetIQ Customer Center.

If you create a new driver in a driver set (that already includes an activated driver from its respective integration module), the new driver inherits activation from the driver set.

If you create the driver in a driver set that has not been previously activated with the respective integration module, the driver will run in the evaluation mode for 90 days. You must activate the driver with its respective module during the evaluation period; otherwise, the driver will be disabled.

If driver activation has expired, the trace displays an error message indicating that you need to reactivate the driver to use it. For information on activation, refer to Activating Identity Manager in the NetIQ Identity Manager Overview and Planning Guide.
