1.3 Support for Standard Driver Features

The following sections provide information about how the Lotus Notes driver supports standard driver features:

1.3.1 Remote Platforms

IMPORTANT:The Lotus Notes client is only supported on the workstation platforms. A Remote Loader running on Windows XP, Windows 7 and 8, SLED 32-bit, RHEL 6 Client 32-bit is only supported for the Lotus Notes driver integration. In normal Identity Manager installations, the Remote Loader is supported only on the server platforms.

Install the Remote Loader and the driver on the workstation platform running the Lotus Notes client. The Remote Loader enables the driver to communicate with the Metadirectory server.

For information about the operating systems supported for the Remote Loader, see System Requirements in the Identity Manager 4.0.2 Integrated Installation Guide.

1.3.2 Entitlements

You can configure the Lotus Notes driver to use entitlements to manage user accounts and group membership in the Lotus Notes Address Book. When using entitlements, this driver works in conjunction with external services, such as the User Application with workflow or role-based provisioning or the Entitlements Service driver, to manage entitlement functionality.

The Notes driver also supports customized entitlements, if there are policies created for the driver to consume. For information about entitlements, see the Identity Manager 4.0.2 Entitlements Guide.

1.3.3 Password Synchronization Support

The Notes driver synchronizes passwords only on the Subscriber channel.

1.3.4 Data Synchronization Support

The Notes driver synchronizes User objects and Group objects.
