2.4.1 Configuring Identity Manager Drivers for the Business
Continuity Cluster
The Identity Manager preconfigured templates for iManager that were installed when you ran the
Business Continuity Clustering installation must be configured so you can properly manage your
business continuity cluster. The preconfigured templates include the following:

Cluster Resource Synchronization: This template must always be configured, even in a
single-tree business continuity cluster.

User Object Synchronization: Configuring this template is necessary only if you have more
than one eDirectory tree in your business continuity cluster. See
Multiple-Tree BCC," on page 79
The Identity Manager engine and eDirectory driver must be installed on one node in each cluster.
The node where Identity Manager is installed must have an eDirectory full replica with at least read/
write access to all eDirectory objects that will be synchronized between clusters. For information
about the full replica requirements, see
