The Identity Reporting Module and Sentinel are optional addition to the Identity Manager solution. By adding auditing and reporting, you can meet compliance standards that many companies must abide by. You can create audit trails for any events you need to track, and you can generate reports to make sure you meet any audit standards for your company.
For installation and configuration information about the Identity Reporting Module, see the Identity Reporting Module Guide. For configuration information about Sentinel with Identity Manager, see the Identity Manager 4.0 Reporting Guide for Novell Sentinel. For system requirement information for Sentinel, see the Novell Sentinel Installation Guide.
