7.5 Installing a Custom Driver
You can create a custom driver to use in your environment For more information on creating a
custom driver or installing one, see the
Novell Developer Kit (http://developer.novell.com/wiki/

7.6 Installing Identity Audit or Sentinel
This is an optional addition to the Identity Manager solution. By adding auditing and reporting, you
can meet compliance standards that many companies must abide by. It creates audit trails for any
events you need to track, and it can generate reports to make sure you meet any audits standards for
your company.

3.6.1 Integration Guide for Identity Audit . For configuration information about Sentinel with

7.7 Installing Identity Manager in Clustering
Environment
If you deploy Identity Manager in a clustered environment, Novell supports Identity Manager
running in the cluster, although in most situations, the cluster itself is not supported. The following
two scenarios describe the extent of support given:
Š If you run the Identity Manager engine or remote loader on SUSE Linux Enterprise Server
(SLES), and use Heartbeat to manage High Availability, everything is supported.
Š
If you run the Identity Manager engine or Remote Loader in a clustered environment on any
other supported platform, support is extended for everything except the cluster management
system.
NOTE: SLES is the only platform that is fully supported in a clustered environment.
For more information on how to configure a cluster with Identity Manager, refer to these resources:
