Configure Microsoft ADAM

To configure a Microsoft ADAM policy store, you apply the adam_ims8.ldif script.

To configure a Microsoft ADAM policy store

1. Configure the directory as a supported SiteMinder Policy Store.

   Note: Be sure that SiteMinder is pointing to this policy store. For configuration instructions, see the CA SiteMinder Policy Server Installation Guide.

2. Modify the adam_ims8.ldif schema file as follows:
   1. In a text editor, open the adam_ims8.ldif\.ldif file. The default Windows location is:

      C:\Program Files\CA\Identity Manager\IAM Suite\Identity Manager\tools\policystore-schemas\MicrosoftActiveDirectory

   2. Replace every cn={guid} reference with the string you found when you configured the SiteMinder policy store in Step 1 of this procedure.

      For example, if the guid string is CN={39BC711D-7F27-4311-B6C0-68FDEE2917B8}, then replace every cn={guid} reference with CN={39BC711D-7F27-4311-B6C0-68FDEE2917B8}.

   3. Save the file.
3. Add the schema file as described in the documentation for your directory.
