The User Application installation program does the following:
Designates an existing version of an application server to use.
Designates an existing version of a database to use, for example MySQL, Oracle*, or Microsoft SQL Server. The database stores User Application data and User Application configuration information.
Configures the JDK’s certificates file so that the User Application (running on the application server) can communicate with the Identity Vault and the User Application driver securely.
Configures and deploys the Java Web Application Archive (WAR) file for the Novell Identity Manager User Application to the JBoss Application Server.
Enables Novell Audit logging if you select to do so.
Enables you to import an existing master key to restore a specific User Application installation and to support clusters.
You can launch the installation program in one of three modes:
Graphical user interface. See Section 5.6, Installing the User Application on a JBoss Application Server from the Install GUI)
Console (command line) interface. See Section 5.8, Installing the User Application from a Console Interface)
Silent install. See Section 5.9, Installing the User Application with a Single Command.
Obtain the Identity Manager 3.5.1 installation files by one of the following methods:
Download the correct User Application .iso image or .zip file for your system: Identity_Manager_3_5_1_User_Application.iso or Identity_Manager_3_5_1_User_Application_Provisioning.iso. Downloads are available from Novell Downloads. See Activating Novell Identity Manager Products for more information.
Download the product DVD, Identity_Manager_3_5_1_DVD.iso, from Novell, Inc.
