<h1 class="topictitle1">Enterprise Identity Mapping setup requirements for eServer</h1>
|
|
<div><div class="p">To implement Enterprise Identity Mapping (EIM) successfully in your enterprise,
|
|
there are three sets of requirements that you must ensure are met: <ol><li>Enterprise or network level requirements</li>
|
|
<li>System requirements</li>
|
|
<li>Application requirements</li>
|
|
</ol>
|
|
</div>
|
|
<div class="section"><h4 class="sectiontitle">Enterprise or network level requirements</h4><p>You must
|
|
configure one system in your enterprise or network to act as an EIM domain
|
|
controller, which is a specially configured Lightweight Directory Access Protocol
|
|
(LDAP) server that stores and provides EIM domain data. There are a number
|
|
of considerations for choosing which directory services product to use as
|
|
a domain controller, including the fact that not all LDAP server products
|
|
provide EIM domain controller support. </p>
|
|
<p>Another consideration is the
|
|
availability of administration tools. One option is that you can use the EIM
|
|
APIs in your own applications to perform administrative functions. If you
|
|
plan to use the Directory Server for iSeries™ (LDAP) product as the EIM domain
|
|
controller, you can use iSeries Navigator to manage EIM. If you plan to use
|
|
the IBM<sup>®</sup> Directory
|
|
product, you can use the eimadmin utility that is part of the V1R4 LDAP SPE.</p>
|
|
<p>The
|
|
following information provides basic information about which IBM platforms
|
|
provide a directory server product that supports EIM. You can find more detailed
|
|
information about choosing a directory server to provide EIM domain controller
|
|
support in <a href="rzalv_plan_controller.htm#rzalv_plan_controller">Plan
|
|
an EIM domain controller</a>.</p>
|
|
</div>
|
|
<div class="section"><h4 class="sectiontitle">System and application requirements</h4><p>Each system
|
|
that participates in an EIM domain must meet the following requirements: </p>
|
|
<ul><li>Have LDAP client software installed.</li>
|
|
<li>Have an implementation of the EIM APIs. </li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<p>Each application that will participate in an EIM domain must be able
|
|
to use the EIM APIs to perform mapping lookup and other operations. </p>
|
|
<div class="note"><span class="notetitle">Note:</span> In
|
|
the case of a distributed application, it may not be necessary that both the
|
|
server side and the client side be able to use the EIM APIs. Typically, only
|
|
the server side of the application may need to use the EIM APIs.</div>
|
|
<div class="p">The
|
|
following table provides information about the EIM support that the <img src="eserver.gif" alt="e(logo)server" /> platforms provide. Information
|
|
is organized by platform with columns that indicate the following: <ul><li>The EIM client needed for the platform to support the EIM APIs.</li>
|
|
<li>The type of EIM configuration and administration tools are available for
|
|
the platform.</li>
|
|
<li>The directory server product that can be installed for the platform to
|
|
serve as an EIM domain controller.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
A platform does not have to be able to serve as an EIM domain controller
|
|
to participate in an EIM domain. </div>
