IBM Security Verify Governance Adapter PostgreSQL Adapter Installation and Configuration Guide
The PostgreSQL Adapter is designed to create and manage accounts on PostgreSQL Database. The adapter runs in "agentless" mode and communicates using JDBC to the systems being managed.
The Identity Manager Adapters are powerful tools that require Administrator Level authority. Adapters operate much like a human system administrator, creating accounts, permissions and home directories. Operations requested from the Identity Manager server will fail if the Adapter is not given sufficient authority to perform the requested task.

Prerequisites
Chapter 3: Installing in the Virtual Appliance
Installing in the Verify Governance virtual appliance
For Verify Governance target management, you can install an IBM Security Verify Governance Adapters or a custom adapter on the built-in Security Directory
Integrator in the virtual appliance instead of installing the adapter externally. As such, there is no need to manage a separate virtual machine or system.
This procedure is applicable for a selected list of Identity Adapters. See the Identity Adapters product documentation to determine which adapters are supported in Identity Governance and Intelligence, and which can be installed on the virtual appliance.
All Identity Governance and Intelligence supported adapters can be installed externally on the virtual appliance. Depending on the adapter, an external Security Directory Integrator may be required.
See the corresponding Adapter Installation and Configuration Guide for the specific prerequisites, installation and configuration tasks, and issues and limitations.
See the Adapters Release Notes for any updates to these references.
