A connector server is a Provisioning Server component that manages connectors. It can be installed on the Provisioning Server system or on a remote system.
A Connector Server works with multiple endpoints. For example, if you have many UNIX workstation endpoints, you might have one Connector Server that handles all connectors that manage UNIX accounts. Another Connector Server might handle all connectors that request Windows accounts.
The distributed Connector Server works with multiple Connector Servers. It provides load balancing when one Connector Server is busy and high availability when a Connector Server is down.
There are two types of connector servers:
C++ Connector Server
The C++ Connector Server is a connector server that manages C++ connectors. It can be installed on the Provisioning Server or on a remote system. The C++ Connector Server provides an object-oriented application framework that simplifies development of connectors, which are responsible for communication between the C++ Connector Server and the endpoint.
