4.2 Activating the Driver

If you created the driver in a driver set that has not been activated, you must activate the driver within 90 days. Otherwise, the driver stops working.

To activate the bidirectional eDirectory driver, activate the Metadirectory engine, then activate the driver by using the separate bidirectional eDirectory activation key.

For information on activation, refer to Activating Novell Identity Manager Products in the Identity Manager 4.0.2 Integrated Installation Guide.

If driver activation has expired, the following error message is displayed in the ndstrace window:

DirXML Log Event ------------------- 
     Driver:   \META-RHEL6\system\DriverSet\eDirDriver-BulkOperations 
     Channel:  Subscriber 
     Status:   Error 
     Message:  Code(-9075) Shutting down because DirXML engine evaluation period has expired. Activation is required for further use. 

To use the driver, you must reactivate it.
