Install CA IAM Connector Server

When you install CA IAM Connector Server, be sure to record the values you enter. The port name, password, and URL are required in other parts of the process.

Note: This procedure assumes that you do not already have a local instance of CA IAM Connector Server installed. If you have installed it as part of a Identity Management installation, the default username is set to "admin".

Follow these steps:

1. Check the time settings for your on-premise Connector Server host. They must match the setting information that you received from the System Administrator for the two servers to connect successfully.

   Note: The cloud-based and on-premise Connector Server time zones need not match, only the settings. For example, daylight savings time must be enabled on both.

2. Download CA IAM Connector Server from support.ca.com, and launch the installer.
3. Select the C++ connector option you want, depending on your environment.
4. Clear the "Register this installation with a Provisioning Server" checkbox if it is selected. This setting is not required for an on-premise installation.
5. On the Cloud Connector Server screen, enter the following information:
   • Server URL - The URL of the cloud-based CA IAM Connector Server messaging interface, for example: https://cloudcs_hostname:22002. The System Administrator provides the URL information.
   • Tenant Name
   • Tenant Host ID - Optional identification for an environment with multiple on-premise server installations.
   • Username - The user name that the System Administrator created for this tenant.
   • Password - The password that the System Administrator created for this tenant.

   Note: To connect to a cloud-based Connector Server, enter details in this step. The details are required for the installer to create a key pair and self-signed certificate. If for some reason you cannot enter details on initial installation, rerun the installer and add details before completing the connection.

6. Enter the admin password on the Connector Server Configuration screen, and accept the default LDAP port values.

   Note: If you install multiple connector servers, be sure to set the same password for each. This practice avoids a password sync issue.

7. On the Port Configuration screen, accept the default values.
8. Enter HTTP Proxy credentials if your environment uses an HTTP proxy.
9. Select the Enable DirSync checkbox on the DirSync screen. If you do not select it, you will be unable to complete the synchronization process.
10. Complete the wizard. You can install multiple connector servers in your environment, depending on your needs.
