Remote Connectors
Important
Connectors continue to be released outside the IDM release. For the latest documentation, refer to the ICF documentation.
In most cases, IDM bundles the connectors required to connect to remote resources, and assumes that the connector will run on the same host as IDM. Sometimes, a connector cannot run on the same host as IDM. This might be for security or network reasons, or because IDM runs in the cloud while the resource is "on-prem". Connectors that do not run on the same host as IDM are called remote connectors. To run remotely, a connector needs a remote connector server (RCS), that runs on the same host as the connector. IDM accesses the connector through the RCS.
Running connectors remotely requires the following high-level steps:
Install an RCS (either .NET or Java) on your on-prem server.
(Optional) Many connectors are bundled with the RCS itself. If the connector you want to use is not bundled with the RCS, download it from the ForgeRock BackStage download site, and put the .jar file or .dll file on your remote server, in the
/path/to/openicf/connectors/directory.
For a list of supported RCS versions, and compatibility between versions, see "IDM / ICF Compatibility Matrix".
