Identity Manager Environment Objects

An Identity Manager Environment is a SiteMinder object produced by Identity Manager that must be associated with a directory and a policy domain. It provides a view of a management namespace that allows an administrator to manage objects such as users, groups, and organizations with a set of associated roles and tasks.

For information about adding Identity Manager Environments to policy domains, see Add Identity Manager Environments to Policy Domains.

For information about configuring a policy to include roles, see Add Roles to a Policy.
