A host for all other components
Table 7–2 and Figure 7–3 illustrate how the Identity Synchronization for Windows components
are distributed between the three hosts.
TABLE 7–2
Multi-Host Deployment
Host 1 Host 2 Host 3
Directory Server with
configuration repository Directory Server for synchronized
users Windows NT Connector
Core (Message Queue, Central
Logger, System Manager, and
Console) Directory Server Connector Windows NT Subcomponents
(Password Filter DLL and Change
Detector Service)
Active Directory Connector Directory Server Plugin
In the previous scenario, hosts 1 and 2 are running on the same operating system.
Note –
Directory Server at host1 contains the configuration registry and the Admin Server
console. Ensure you migrate to Directory Server 6.0 using the
-N
option to keep the Admin
Server intact. For more information on migrating configuration data and user data, see “Using
dsmig
to Migrate Configuration Data” on page 31 and “Using
dsmig
to Migrate User Data”
on page 35 respectively.
Directory Server at host2 contains the data and the Directory Server plugin. When you migrate
Directory Server to 6.0, the plugin configuration is lost. But it does not cause any problem as
Identity Synchronization for Windows migration requires the connectors to be reinstalled and
plugin to be reconfigured. Therefore, Directory Server at host2 should be migrated after
Identity Synchronization for Windows uninstallation.
If both hosts are running a Solaris operating system, then a fourth host running Windows 2000
with Active Directory is required for synchronization purposes only. (No components would be
installed on the fourth host.)
Figure 7–3 illustrates the process for migrating Identity Synchronization for Windows for a
multi-host deployment
