Installation and configuration of a directory server

Security Identity Manager stores user account and organizational data, but not scheduling and audit data, in a directory server. The information describes configuring the directory server for use by Security Identity Manager.

The supported combinations of directory servers and required fix packs are described in Hardware and software requirements.

This information is not a substitute for the more extensive, prerequisite documentation that is provided by the directory server product itself. For more information, see Hardware and software requirements. For fixes and downloads, see IBM® software product support website.

Before you install the directory server product

Before you install the directory server product, you must consider these points:

• Read the installation guide that the directory server product provides.
• Ensure that your installation meets the directory server hardware and software requirements.
