You will need to install the Liberty administration plug-ins in iManager. An installation help
screen for iManager launches. To set up the Liberty Roles and Tasks, follow the instructions
in the help screen to launch iManager and run the Configuration Wizard.

Continue with the steps in

Chapter 3, “Creating a Liberty IDP Site,” on page 21

to set up your

Liberty IDP site.

Installing the Liberty Administration Plug-ins When iManager is Already Installed
on Your eDirectory Server

After you have successfully completed the initial Liberty installation, you must install the Liberty
administration plug-ins for iManager in order to configure the information entered for your Liberty
IDP server. By default, you will install these plug-ins as part of your IDP installation, however, if
you need to install these plug-ins separately from your Liberty IDP installation, follow the
instructions in this section.

To install the Liberty plug-ins:

1

Launch iManager, log in to your tree using the IP address, then click the Configure icon (on
the toolbar at the top of the page).

You launch iManager by opening a Web browser and going to https://<ipaddress>/eMFrame/
iManager.html (case-sensitive), where <ipaddress> is the address of your server. For detailed
instructions on how to launch iManager, see the "Novell Web Applications," html document
that was placed on your desktop as part of the iManager installation.

For iManager documentation, see the

iManager 1.5.1 Administration Guide (http://

www.novell.com/documentation/lg/imanager151/index.html)

.

2

Expand the Plug-in Setup and Install menu on the left-hand side.

3

Click Install Plug-in.

4

Select the Liberty Identity Management plug-in from the list, enter the collection name (by
default, this name is Role Based Service) or search for it, then click OK.

5

Click the Roles and Tasks icon on the toolbar.

6

Expand the Liberty Management menu on the left-hand side.

7

Click Manage Sites and follow the instructions to set up your site. See

Chapter 3, “Creating a

Liberty IDP Site,” on page 21

for details.

8

Reboot your machine for the settings to take effect.

IMPORTANT:

Your machine will still be running in test mode. Before you can run in a production

environment, you will need to switch to SSL mode. To make the switch, you need to create a key signing
pair, get it signed by a certificate authority, then configure Apache to use it as the SSL certificate. See

Chapter 4, “Configuring Your Liberty Identity Provider to Run in SSL Mode,” on page 29

for information

on how to make this conversion. You can also refer to the Tomcat and Apache Web sites for more
information.

Uninstalling the Liberty Identity Provider Software

If you need to uninstall your Liberty identity provider, you must make sure you delete all the
associated files with it. This is especially important if you plan to reinstall the IDP once it has been
uninstalled.
