<h1 class="topictitle1">EIM domain controller</h1>
|
||
|
<div><p>This information explains why you would want to use an Enterprise
|
||
|
Identity Mapping (EIM) domain controller.</p>
|
||
|
<p>An <em>EIM domain controller</em> is a Lightweight Directory
|
||
|
Access Protocol (LDAP) server that is configured to manage one or more EIM
|
||
|
domains. An <em>EIM domain</em> is an LDAP directory that consists of all the
|
||
|
EIM identifiers, EIM associations, and user registries that are defined in
|
||
|
that domain. Systems (EIM clients) participate in the EIM domain by using
|
||
|
the domain data for EIM lookup operations. </p>
|
||
|
<p>Currently, you can configure the IBM<sup>®</sup> Directory Server on some IBM <img src="eserver.gif" alt="e(logo)server" /> platforms to act as an EIM
|
||
|
domain controller. Any system that supports the EIM APIs can participate as
|
||
|
a client in the domain. These client systems use EIM APIs to contact an EIM
|
||
|
domain controller to perform <a href="rzalveservereimmaplookup.htm#rzalveservereimmaplookup">EIM lookup operations</a>.
|
||
|
The location of the EIM client determines whether the EIM domain controller
|
||
|
is a local or remote system. The domain controller is <em>local</em> if the
|
||
|
EIM client is running on the same system as the domain controller. The domain
|
||
|
controller is <em>remote</em> if the EIM client is running on a separate system
|
||
|
from the domain controller.</p>
|
||
|
<p><strong>Note:</strong> If you plan to configure a directory server on a remote system,
|
||
|
the directory server must provide EIM support. EIM requires that the domain
|
||
|
controller be hosted by a directory server that supports Lightweight Directory
|
||
|
Access Protocol (LDAP) Version 3. Additionally, the directory server product
|
||
|
must be configured to accept the <a href="rzalv_eim_ldap_schema.htm#rzalv_eim_ldap_schema">EIM
|
||
|
schema</a>. The IBM Directory Server for iSeries™ and the IBM Directory Server V5.1 provide this support.</p>
