Deploying The Driver; Starting The Driver - Novell IDENTITY MANAGER 3.6.1 - WORKORDER DRIVER IMPLEMENTATION GUIDE 18-12-2009 Implementation Manual

4.2.3 Deploying the Driver

After a driver is created in Designer, it must be deployed into the Identity Vault.
1 In Designer, open your project.
2 In the Modeler, right-click the driver icon
3 If you are authenticated to the Identity Vault, skip to
information to authenticate:
Host: Specify the IP address or DNS name of the server hosting the Identity Vault.
Username: Specify the DN of the user object used to authenticate to the Identity Vault.
Password: Specify the user's password.
4 Click OK.
5 Read the deployment summary, then click Deploy.
6 Read the message, then click OK.
7 Click Define Security Equivalence to assign rights to the driver.
The driver requires rights to objects within the Identity Vault. The Admin user object is most
often used to supply these rights. However, you might want to create a DriversUser (for
example) and assign security equivalence to that user. Whatever rights that the driver needs to
have on the server, the DriversUser object must have the same security rights.
7a Click Add, then browse to and select the object with the correct rights.
7b Click OK twice.
8 Click Exclude Administrative Roles to exclude users that should not be synchronized.
You should exclude any administrative User objects (for example, Admin and DriversUser)
from synchronization.
8a Click Add, then browse to and select the user object you want to exclude.
8b Click OK.
8c Repeat Step 8a
8d Click OK.
9 Click OK.

4.2.4 Starting the Driver

When a driver is created, it is stopped by default. To make the driver work, you must start the driver
and cause events to occur. Identity Manager is an event-driven system, so after the driver is started,
it doesn't do anything until an event occurs.
To start the driver:
1 In Designer, open your project.
2 In the Modeler, right-click the driver icon
For information about management tasks with the driver, see
