Before You Begin

Before starting the Identity Synchronization for Windows installation process:

• Read Chapter 2, Preparing for Installation that contains important information, such as installation prerequisites, checklists, and administrator privilege requirements.

• A Java Runtime Environment (JRE) is not provided with this product. If necessary, you can download a Java Development Kit from the following location:

  http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/index.html or http://www.java.com

  You must install JRE 1.5.0_09 or later to run the Identity Synchronization for Windows installation program on your Solaris, Linux, or Windows 2000/2003 systems.

  ---

  Note - If Directory Server 6.x is installed with Java ES, JRE 1.5.0_09 is already installed on your computer.

• On Windows systems only: You must close any open Service Control Panel windows before starting Core installation, or the installation will fail.

• On Solaris systems: Do not install Message Queue and Identity Synchronization for Windows in the same directory.

• On Red Hat Linux systems: Do not install Message Queue and Identity Synchronization for Windows in the same directory.
