illustrate how the Identity Synchronization for Windows components

are distributed between the three hosts.

TABLE 7–2

Multi-Host Deployment

Host 1

Host 2

Host 3

Directory Server with
configuration repository

Directory Server for synchronized
users

Windows NT Connector

Core (Message Queue, Central
Logger, System Manager, and
Console)

Directory Server Connector

Windows NT Subcomponents
(Password Filter DLL and Change
Detector Service)

Active Directory Connector

Directory Server Plugin

In the previous scenario, hosts 1 and 2 are running on the same operating system.

Note –

Directory Server at host1 contains the configuration registry and the Admin Server

console. Ensure you migrate to Directory Server 6.0 using the -N option to keep the Admin
Server intact. For more information on migrating configuration data and user data, see

“Using

dsmig

to Migrate Configuration Data” on page 31

and

“Using dsmig to Migrate User Data”

on page 35

respectively.

Directory Server at host2 contains the data and the Directory Server plugin. When you migrate
Directory Server to 6.0, the plugin configuration is lost. But it does not cause any problem as
Identity Synchronization for Windows migration requires the connectors to be reinstalled and
plugin to be reconfigured. Therefore, Directory Server at host2 should be migrated after
Identity Synchronization for Windows uninstallation.

If both hosts are running a Solaris operating system, then a fourth host running Windows 2000
with Active Directory is required for synchronization purposes only. (No components would be
installed on the fourth host.)
