CA Identity Manager Components

The main CA Identity Manager components include the following:

Identity Manager Server—The server that provides the core functionality of the product.
Identity Manager Administrative Tools—Tools such as the Provisioning Manager, which provides an additional interface to endpoint systems.
Identity Manager Provisioning Server—The server that handles all provisioning requests and works with endpoint systems.
Identity Manager Provisioning Directory—A directory to store provisioning data.
Extensions for SiteMinder—Extensions required for the SiteMinder Policy Server if you are using it to protect CA Identity Manager. If the Policy Server is on the same system where you are installing CA Identity Manager, you can install CA Identity Manager and the extensions simultaneously. Otherwise, install the extensions before installing CA Identity Manager.
