You must upgrade iManager to be able to use the updated functionality in the Identity Manager plug-ins.
iManager can only be installed on Windows or Linux. If your Metadirectory server is installed on Solaris, you must have iManager installed on a separate server.
If you have iManager 2.6 or earlier installed, you cannot use these steps to upgrade iManager. Use the correct upgrade procedure in the Novell iManager 2.7 Installation Guide.
