Ensure that Identity Manager Engine is installed before installing the Remote Loader.
You can install the Remote Loader on the same computer where you installed the Identity Manager engine. Ensure that the operating system supports both components.
Install the Remote Loader on a server that can communicate with the managed systems. The driver for each managed system must be available with the relevant APIs.
(Conditional) If you install the Identity Manager engine as a non-root user, the installation process does not install Linux Account Driver, or Remote Loader. You must install these components separately.
NetIQ recommends you to install changelog module on a different server than Identity Manager Engine or Remote Loader.
If you are planning to use a non-default deployment context, that is, anything other than o=system, NetIQ recommends that you create a custom LDIF file prior to the Identity Manager Engine installation. The location of the custom LDIF file will be prompted during the configuration process.
NOTE:If you have not created the OU structure prior to the installation, you can define the required OU structure with the hierarchy of all containers under which the driver set will be created. This structure and the hierarchy will be used when the new driver set is being configured through the LDIF file.
If you install or upgrade to Identity Manager 4.8 on Open Enterprise Server 2018, you must manually install or update Identity Manager plug-ins from iManager. For more information, see Downloading and Installing Plug-in Modules in the NetIQ iManager Administration Guide.
To upgrade Identity Manager 4.8.5 on Open Enterprise Server 2022, you must first install Identity Manager Engine 4.8 and upgrade to the 4.8.5 version. Do not configure the engine parameters until version 4.8.5 has been installed.
Before you begin with the installation process, NetIQ recommends you to run the following command for all the languages:
export LC_ALL=<language>
For example,
export LC_ALL=zh_TW
