Policy Store Considerations

Consider the following before running the Policy Server installer or the Policy Server Configuration wizard:

• The Policy Server installer and configuration wizard can automatically configure the policy store in an Active Directory Application Mode (ADAM) or a Sun Java System Directory Server.

  Note: Ensure you have met the prerequisites for configuring ADAM as a policy store before running the installation.

• You may use any other supported LDAP or relational database as a policy store, but must manually configure the policy store after installing the Policy Server. Manually configuring an LDAP directory server or relational database as a policy store is detailed in this guide.

Note: The Policy Server installer and configuration wizard cannot automatically configure a policy store that is being connected to using an SSL connection.
