This is a patch for the Novell Identity Manager Driver for Scripting that came with IDM 3.5.1. This patch applies to the Scripting driver running on HPUX, AIX, Solaris, Linux and Windows.
details
Overview: Patch 9a for the Novell Identity Manager Driver for Scripting 3.5.1
System Requirements: Novell Identity Manager 3.5.1 and the Novell Identity Manager Driver for Scripting from that version.
Installation Instructions
1. Stop the driver and driver shim started tasks, if they are running.
For Linux and Solaris, use the shim stop command:
/etc/init.d/usdrvd stop
For AIX, use
/etc/rc.d/init.d/usdrvd stop
For HPUX, use
/sbin/init.d/usdrvd stop
2a. For Windows, replace wsdriver.exe, idmevent.exe and EventReader.exe.
By default these are located in C:\Program Files\Novell\WSDriver\bin.
2b. Linux/UNIX versions: run the installer from the appropriate directory.
3. Start the driver in iManager, then start the driver service.
For Linux and Solaris, use the shim start command:
/etc/init.d/usdrvd start
For AIX, use
/etc/rc.d/init.d/usdrvd start
For HPUX, use
/sbin/init.d/usdrvd start
Technical Support Information:
Current Fixes:
- On Windows, events with passwords that contained (e.g.) &, <, >, or " characters were not processed.
- Fixed a versioning problem with the readme.
Previous Fixes:
- The Windows binaries have been built with the correct DLL settings. The binaries in patch 7 would fail to load on some systems.
- Fixed memory leaks associated with heartbeat events and loopback detection.
- Fixed constant growth of allocated handles which causes system problems (Windows).
- Temporary files that are created in the Windows Temp directory are now deleted after a heartbeat operation.
- The temporary file for parameters that is create on startup is now deleted on shutdown.
- Linux driver now installs correctly on RHEL5.
- Fixed memory leaks during publishing.
- Fixed version not reported correctly by unix driver shim.
- Fixed REMOVE_ALL_ keywords not working properly on publisher channel.
- Fixed REMOVE_ values on subscriber channel not working for Unix Perl library
- Fixed REMOVE_ values not properly retrieved/formatted when mutliple "remove-value" elements are used instead of multiple "value" elements underneath a single remove-value element.
- Fixed schema configuration file not parsed correctly when class names or attributes were quoted.
- Fixed race condition if two drivers were configured for the same system and attempted to connect to the driver shim simultaneously. This could result in driver shim crashes or shared memory errors.
- OpenSSL updated to 0.9.8g.
- Fixed mishandling of non-ASCII characters which could result in an abend or hung driver shim.
- Adjusted memory management to more efficiently handle events with large amounts of data.
- Fixed network timeout that sometimes restarted the driver shim's connection with the IDM engine.
- Fixed network error that would sometimes occur when sending large amounts of data to the IDM engine. For example, during a large migration.
- Fixed issue in which the password files could not be read on Windows, preventing the driver from loading. The driver would print the message "Remote loader password and driver object password must be set".
- Fixed incorrect handling of non-ASCII characters when passed to/from scripts on Windows.
- Fixed handling of the old-src-dn field for rename and move events.
-The "/" (root) path of the driver shim's web interface can now be accessed.
-The dest-dn, dest-entry-id and template-dn event fields are now accessible from the scripts.
- Improved memory allocation during event processing, which improved how much memory was required for large migrations.
- Fixed situation where the Query-back interface would not return attributes properly.
- Fixed error handling unicode characters.
- Fixed install on Solaris not installing the IDMLib.pm properly.
- Fixed multi-command documents not being processed correctly.
