Configuring the Identity Manager
Drivers for BCC
Novell
®
Business Continuity Clustering (BCC) software provides two drivers for Identity Manager
that are used to synchronize cluster resources and User objects between the clusters in the business
continuity cluster. After you install BCC, you must configure the Identity Manager drivers for BCC
in order to properly synchronize and manage your business continuity cluster.
IMPORTANT: To assist your planning process, a worksheet is provided in Appendix D,
“Configuration Worksheet for the BCC Drivers for Identity Manager,” on page 147 .

9.1 Understanding the BCC Drivers
Business Continuity Clustering provides two templates that are used with the eDirectory driver in
Identity Manager to create the BCC drivers:
Š
Cluster Resource Synchronization: A set of policies, filters, and objects that synchronize
cluster resource information between any two of the peer clusters. This template is always used
to create drivers for synchronizing information, and must be configured after installing BCC
software.
Š
User Object Synchronization: A set of policies, filters, and objects that synchronize User
objects between any any two trees (or partitions) that contain the clusters in the business
continuity cluster. Typically, this template is used to configure drivers when the clusters in your
business continuity cluster are in different eDirectory
TM
trees.
IMPORTANT: Using two eDirectory trees is not supported for BCC on Linux.
You might also need to set up User Object Synchronization drivers between clusters if you put
User objects in a different eDirectory partition than is used for the Cluster objects. This is not a
recommended configuration; however, it is explained below for completeness.
Both the Cluster Resource Synchronization driver and the User Object Synchronization driver can
be added to the same driver set. The driver set can also contain multiple instances of a given driver.
For example, you have an instance for each Identity Manager connection that a given cluster has
with another peer cluster.
