Installing a separate copy of IDM to support external customers

We currently have IDM 6.0 providing basic provisioning (i.e. login account, email, internet access...) for all associates. Our authoritative source is our PeopleSoft system - and this all works very well. However, we want to use IDM to provision access for our external customers. Now the business process for these external customers is very different than our internal associates. So the authoritative source will be different. And we plan to separate the internal and external accounts into 2 separate Active Directory domains. So we see a fair amount of changes to our existing workflows, forms, extended attributes... So my question is - should we modify our existing IDM 6.0 environment to support these external customers, or should we install another copy of IDM - and modify this new copy for our external customers only. (Our Sun rep said it doesn't cost anything to have IDM installed twice). We see pro's and con's with this. So does anyone have any insight into this? Thanks.

What is the added value of having two IDM installations? Maybe it is extra security. The drawbacks of two installations are double patching; double login for you user admins; the risk of deploying code changes to the wrong instance.
The customizations for external customers have to be done any way. I would stick to one installation, create a new organization for external users at the same 'level' as your existing organization for internal users and create a new AD resource for customers.
Success!

  • How do I install a bootable copy of Tiger to an external Firewire drive?

    I've got a problem with my optical drive and cannot boot from a CD or DVD on my 17" flat panel iMac, running 10.2.8. I have bought Tiger and would like to upgrade my OS but want to be able to run some disc repair utilities on the iMac prior to doing the upgrade but can't run them on my boot disc.
    I'd like to be able to install Tiger on my external FW hard drive, install Techtool pro on that same drive and then try to repair the internal drive on my iMac by booting from the external drive. Is that possible? Is it a good idea? Can I install to the external drive from my internal Superdrive without being able to boot from the install DVD? How should I do that?
    Thanks in advance for any help.
    Michael

    Because you must boot from the Tiger DVD in order to install Tiger I'm afraid you are somewhat out of luck. However, with no guarantee either express or implied here's something you can try:
    First, download a freeware utility called Carbon Copy Cloner from www.versiontracker.com or www.macupdate.com. Second, connect your Firewire drive and insert the Tiger DVD into the optical drive. Be sure it mounts on the Desktop along with the Firewire drive. Third, open your Disk Utility from the Utilities folder and use it to format or erase the Firewire drive. If you prefer you may wish to partition the Firewire drive to allocate a partition for the Tiger DVD (you will need about 6 GBs.) Fourth, open the CCC utility and click on the Lock icon beside the grayed out Clone button and authenticate. Then click on the Preferences icon. In the section labeled "Target Disk Options" be sure that the box labeled "Make bootable" is checked. No other items should be used. Click on the Save button. Fifth, select the Tiger DVD as the Source Disk, select the partition on the Firewire drive as the Target Disk. Now click on the Clone button.
    Go away for a while because the clone process will take time. Once it finally completes you can eject the Tiger DVD. You now should be able to boot the computer from the Firewire drive partition. Open your Startup Disk preference pane, select the Tiger partition on the Firewire drive from the icon list, then click on the Restart button.
    If this works your machine will boot into the Tiger installer from the Firewire drive. You can then install it onto your iMac. I would suggest you use the Archive and Install option. You may find the following helpful:

  • My updates are failing.  Adobe application manager may be damaged.  I have downloaded and installed a new copy and the problem persists.   Please help.

    I am trying to update Photoshop CS6 in order to read my camera's RAW files.  It is a camera that is supported by Adobe Photoshop CS6.  However, when I try to get the Adobe Application Manager to update the software, it fails to do so.  (The spinning wheel tells me it is checking for updates and then quits, saying that "Update Failed - Updates could not be applied.  Adobe Application Manager may be damaged.  Download and install a new copy of Adobe Application Manager.")
    I have tried to reinstall the Adobe Application Manager 8.0, which gives me the following error message "We've encountered the following issues.  Installer failed to initialize.  Please download Adobe Support Advisor to detect the problem."  However, when I go to the link provided to download the Adobe Support Advisor, this piece of software NO LONGER EXISTS. "

    The Adobe Support Advisor tool was used to analyze installer log and system information associated with installation errors. The tool has been replaced with improved installation support mechanisms. Please visit Adobe Support section for Knowledge base articles around Installation."
    So, I have gone to the forums and took the recommended step to update my software manually - getting the update Photoshop_CS6_13_0_6upd-2.dmg.  However, this update also fails stating that my Adobe Application Manager may be damages.  Download and install a new copy of Adobe Application Manager.  Which puts me right back where I started.  
    I have also taken the step of completely reinstalling Photoshop CS6.  This did not solve the problems outlined above.

  • Just completed a clean install of CS6 Photoshop on my Yosemite Mac Book Pro and the Adobe Application Manager does not work and cannot install a fresh copy from Adobe

    Just re-installed a fresh copy of CS6 Photoshop on my Yosemite Mac Book Pro and somehow the Adobe Application Manager does not work and therefore cannot verify my copy.  What should I do?
    I get a message saying that Adobe Application Manager may be damaged and that I should install a new version of AAM.  But after downloading a fresh copy of AAM and doing the install, the program (AAM) still will not install.  It is like an infinite loop!
    Please, someone help!
    Thanks!

    HI gener7!
    I'm sorry but I am not on Creative Cloud.  I'm still on CS6 and it was the Adobe Application Manager that wasn't working and I could not install the update to this application.  My AAM version is:  8.0.0160
    The link you provided was the update that I wanted to install but it does not work.  A window shows up during that install that says:
    We've encountered the following issues.
    Installer failed to initialize.  Please download Adobe Support Advisor to detect the problem.
    and then the link to the Adobe Support Advisor which leads to a "Adobe Support Advisor has been discontinued" page.
    Thanks!

  • 11gR2 Grid Infrastructure and 11gR2 RAC install as separate users (RH 5)

    We are about to set up a few new RH 5 clusters and are trying to make a decision if we should install 11gR2 Grid Infrastructure and 11gR2 RAC as the same user (oracle) or as separate users (grid and oracle) as per Oracle documentation.
    I would like to know what other people are doing and their experiences with this.
    Here are some concerns that we have:
    1) Does Oracle support has an 11gR2 cluster environment where grid infrastructure and oracle database are installed as separate users ? I have been to a few Oracle 11gR2 demos and they always have a simple install where everything is installed as a single user.
    2) Potential permission issues that we might hit iif we use separate users, for example
    - grid control agent - which user do we install it as and will it be able to access both grid and oracle files ?
    - database listener will run as grid user. Is this going to cause any permission issues ?
    Thanks in advance for your answers

    It is all dependent on your business whether your business needs to separate between privileged user for storage administrator (ASM) or database level. It is recommended to have user separation but not mandatory.
    see http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E11882_01/install.112/e17212/toc.htm for the details
    permission issues might happen if the configuration is not correct. for example you might see ORA-12537 when configuring the system
    Hope this helps

  • Error when Installing Eax-console as part of Audigy support pack 3.6

    <div class="lia-component-body lia-message-body">Hey there, out of nowhere I have the following problem:
    I have used several versions of this audigy support Pack up to now, both in Windows XP and Windows 7 RC and all worked fine for me. Most recently I used 3.5 and 3.6 in both OS for a short time.
    now I had to format my harddisk an have installed a clean version of Win XP SP3. I installed an update pack (winboard.org), the latest direct X and drivers for nvidia motherboard and videocard. Then, when I tried to install this support pack, I get an error messagge I-00 when eax-console should have been installed, something about CTengine being unable to be installed.
    I read through many of the solutions here in the forum, since this error seems to be not so rare. But up to now, nothing helped. This is, what my install.log tells me:
    [EAX Console]
    GUID={5B7E626-7885-4FC3-A66A-73548A4F0FD}
    Warning=I-008 CTRegSvr fails to register C:\Programme\Creative\EAX\Karaoke.exc.
    [Common Audio Driver Interface]
    GUID={700932B3-A964-4878-82A2-96054622AF7}
    Warning=I-007 RegSvr32 fails to un-register C:\Programme\Creative\ShareDLL\CADI\ctcadi.dll.
    All other install.log from the other parts of the pack contain no warning. Everything except the EAX-console works fine, if I try to start that, I get an error "No components are registered", an I don't have a "karaoke" register, but otherwise it works well, I can use the effects and cmss.
    What the heck could I do?
    I made an new thread, since nobody seamed to react to my post in the support pack thread.

    HRe: Error when Installing Eax-console as part of Audigy support pack 3.6o What you have is a missing file, or perhaps your system is wanting to install direct X redistributable or something similar. Do a search on your system for install.log and when you find the newest one, or second to newest one, open it with notepad. It will tell you exactly what you are missing. I was trying to install some components for my Elite Pro and it said in the install.log that it could not find DXREDIST. So I copied a version I had to the installing program's folder and it worked!? So take a look at that log and see what is missing......write back with your results if you dont mind. In the original post I had seen the registration problems with components. You can manually run regsvr32 with the /? switch and see how to unregister that yourself and then try the installation again.

  • Tried to install a new game but got error message "You can't open the application "XIII Install" because PowerPC applications are no longer supported."  I have since read that Yosemite doesn't have the program. What can I do?

    Tried to install a new game that I bought (Xiii) for my MBP. All system req have been met and exceeded, however when trying to install it I get an error message saying "You can’t open the application “XIII Install” because PowerPC applications are no longer supported."
    I have since read online that the operating software Yosemite has got rid of PowerPC applications, meaning I can't install my new game. 
    Is there anything simple that I can do to get this game to work. I'll be gutted if not as I have opened the game therefore the shop will not give a full refund, I'm sure .
    Regards
    Simon

    A lot longer ago than that. PowerPC apps haven't been supported since Lion, 10.7.x.
    You may have just purchased the game, but the developers obviously haven't kept up to date with the requirements for newer versions of the Mac OS.
    You have three options, depending on how old your Mac is.
    1) If it were ever able to boot directly to Snow Leopard, you could create a separate partition and install SL onto that partition. Make sure to turn on the option during the installation to install Rosetta. That is OS X's PPC emulator.
    2) If your Mac is too new to install Snow Leopard, then you can purchase and install Snow Leopard Server within a VM, such as Parallels, VirtualBox, or Vmware.
    3) Use a separate older Mac for running outdated software.

  • I can't install iTunes 10 since this isn't supported by Mac Os 10.4.11

    Help. I can't synchronize my iPhone 4g on my powermac G5 because I can't install iTunes 10 since this isn't supported by Mac Os 10.4.11. And I can't upgrade to mac os 10.5 because my computer processor (a PowerPC G5) does not support mac os 10.5.
    Does anyone know how to help me?

    Yes, call Apple and buy a copy of Leopard (10.5.x). Snow Leopard (10.6.x) only runs on Intel, Leopard does run on PowerPC.

  • Failed to install a local copy of ias60.jar

    Hello,
    could anybody help me with this problem.
    We have installed under Solaris: iPlanet Webserver6.0, Directory Server5.1 and Application Server6.5. In the console it is not possible to select iPlanet Application Server. Message: Class Loader Error:Failed to install a local copy of ias60.jar or one of its supporting files.
    What can I do?
    Thanks Juergen

    Hi,
    I'm not sure what console means, I assume it's the iAS registry tool, kregedit. Are you getting this error at the terminal windows ?
    Normally, ias60.jar would be located in <ias-install root>/ias/java/jars/ias60.jar and <ias-install root>/java/jars/ias60.jar. Check in these two directories, also review the path settings in the iasenv.ksh file under <ias-install root>/ias/env. Please let me know if this helps.

  • How to install the disk copy program

    i recieved a computer from my colleg and want to install disk copy but the files are in a format that needs disk copy to open them (.smi,.part,etc.)how do i install disk copy when the install neds disk copy to run. i do not have the original install disk!!!! so do not ask if i have install disk.

    Would it be correct to assume that you are trying to install the downloadable System 7.5.3 , e.g. the US version here? If so, the computer in question (Performa 638CD?) will have to have a usable operating system on the hard disk; or a startup floppy or CD will be needed.
    As Niel has indicated above, you are not going to need a separate Disk Copy application for a self-mounting image.
    However, please note that the files available for download are protected by a MacBinary (.bin) encoding. StuffIt Expander would be required for the decoding. If the download has been carried out on a PC, leave the encoded files intact until on a Mac. Do not try to decode the .bin on a PC.
    Once on the Mac where you want to install System 7.5.3, decode the .bin (if this has not been done earlier, in an appropriate Mac environment). Then, place the decoded files (one .smi and eighteen .part) in a common folder on the hard disk. Double-click on the .smi; this will mount the total image. The installer will be found in the mounted image. Run the installer.
    Should you in a particular case really need Disk Copy (for instance, for .img files), the program can be found here. You will notice that version 6.3.3 is packaged as a self-mounting image, protected by MacBinary. Decode the .bin on the Mac, double-click on the .smi, and finally drag-copy the Disk Copy program from the image to the hard disk.
    If you do not have access to a suitable StuffIt Expander version for the older Mac, please post back.

  • HT1349 I keep trying to install itunes and it says apple app support error2

    I am trying to install itunes, keeps coming uo apple app support error2

    With the Error 2, let's try a standalone Apple Application Support install. It still might not install, but fingers crossed any error messages will give us a better idea of the underlying cause of the issue.
    Download and save a copy of the iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64setup.exe) installer file to your hard drive:
    http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
    Download and install the free trial version of WinRAR:
    http://www.rarlab.com/download.htm
    Right-click the iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64Setup.exe), and select "Extract to iTunesSetup" (or "Extract to iTunes64Setup"). WinRAR will expand the contents of the file into a folder called "iTunesSetup" (or "iTunes64Setup").
    Go into the folder and doubleclick the AppleApplicationSupport.msi to do a standalone AAS install.
    Does it install properly for you?
    If instead you get an error message during the install, let us know what it says. (Precise text, please.)

  • HT204389 Siri sounds like beta Siri after installing a fresh Copy of iOS 7.0.2

    I have a 32GB iPhone 5s on AT&T I recently installed a fresh copy of iOS 7.0.2 and now Siri does not sound like the new Siri she has the robotic voice again. I have went to Settings>General>Accessibility>Voice Over(Which is off)>Languages & Dialects>Default Dialect(Set to U.S. English) and turned enhanced voice on. I watched it download the enhanced voice. Still the same thing. I have powered off the phone and powered it back on. Siri still sounds like the siri of old. I have performed a hard reboot. Siri still sounds the same. When I first got the phone she sounded as advertised. Is there anything else I should try?

    Hey hmj9007,
    Great question. After restoring or updating a device, the system initially uses a more compact voice while the natural-sounding voice is downloading:
    About Siri
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4992
    Can I change how Siri sounds?
    Your iOS device initially uses a compact voice for Siri. Your device will automatically download and install a more natural-sounding voice when you first connect to power and a Wi-Fi network.
    Change the gender at Settings > General > Siri > Voice Gender. The voice genders that are available vary by country and region.
    Change the language at Settings > General > Siri > Language.
    If you change either of these, the new enhanced-quality voice will download when you connect your device to power and a Wi-Fi network.
    Thanks,
    Matt M.

  • I am trying to install a registered copy of Photoshop Lightroom that I never installed on my Apple iMac with software version 10.10.  I get the message "Adobe Lightroom 1.  Cannot be installed on this disk because a newer version of this software already

    I am trying to install a registered copy of Photoshop Lightroom that I never installed on my Apple iMac with software version 10.10.
    I get the message “Adobe Lightroom 1.  Cannot be installed on this disk because a newer version of this software already exists on this disk”
    If it is here – I cannot find it anywhere, and I don’t believe that I ever installed it.
    I have ordered the upgrade to Lightroom 5.0 and figured that I should install Lightroom 1.0 first.
    How can I solve this problem

    Actually when LR 5 starts for the first time after it is installed it will have a dialog to Buy, Try or Enter a serial number. You select Enter a serial number and enter the LR 5 serial number first and then because it is an upgrade serial number it will ask for the serial number of a Previous version. You then enter the LR 1 serial number.

  • How to format and install a fresh copy of Mac OS 10.6.4, with another MacBook CD, because i lost the one that came with mine, thanks.

    Dear user, can i format and install a fresh copy of Mac OS 10.6.4, with another MacBook CD, because i lost the one that came with mine, thanks.

    As you need to be on 10.6 to be able access the App Store to download Lion, either get replacement discs via Applecare (you'll need the MBP's serial number to get the right ones) or get the SL retail disc. I would recommend the Original disc replacement set (assuming they were 10.6) as they carry not onlyApple Hardware Test for your model, but the iLife apps other bundled sftware that isn't on the retail disc.
    Once you've installed, and used Software Update to get to 10.6.8, you can then get Lion if you're feeling masochistic.
