IBM Security Identity Governance and Intelligence PostgreSQL Adapter Installation and Configuration Guide
The PostgreSQL Adapter is designed to create and manage accounts on an PostgreSQL Database. The adapter runs in "agentless" mode and communicates using JDBC to the systems being managed.
The Identity Manager Adapters are powerful tools that require Administrator Level authority. Adapters operate much like a human system administrator, creating accounts, permissions and home directories. Operations requested from the Identity Manager server will fail if the Adapter is not given sufficient authority to perform the requested task.
Review and agree to the terms of the IBM Security Identity Adapter License prior to using this product.
