· IBM Security Verify Governance Adapter for IBM Security Verify Governance Admin Realm Adapter Installation and Configuration Guide
The IBM Security Verify Governance Admin Realm Adapter is designed to create and manage User Accounts on the IBM Security Verify Governance Admin Realm platform. The adapter runs in "agentless" mode and communicates using REST API to the systems being managed.
The IBM Security Verify Governance 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 IBM Security Verify - Governance server will fail if the Adapter is not given sufficient authority to perform the requested task.

Chapter 3: Installing
-> Installing in the Verify Governance
Virtual Appliance
( Please add this new section at knowledge centre guide of ISVG
(under Installing > Installing in the Verify Governance Virtual Appliance) for
ISVG Admin Realm Adapter to describe
installation procedure of adapter in Verify Governance Virtual Appliance: https://www.ibm.com/docs/en/svgaa?topic=ldap-installing-in-virtual-appliance.
Please add this below note as well after adding the description.)
Note: While uploading the Adapter package, you may
receive System Error: A file included in the SDI Adapter zip already exists on the
system and the Server Message log under Appliance tab of VA will have a
reference to error com.ibm.identity.sdi.SDIManagementService E File ibm.com_IBM_Security_Verify_Governance_xxxx.swidtag
found in the adapter zip at location ILMT-Tags/ already exists in system. This is because, you can install the same swidtags only once. So, if another adapter of the same type
is installed, remove the swidtags.
The ibm.com_IBM_Security_Verify_Governance_Enterprise-xxxx.swidtag file is common to all adapters. In addition to the
common swidtag file, an application adapter needs ibm.com_IBM_Security_Verify_Governance_Application_Adapters-xxxx.swidtag file and an infra adapter needs ibm.com_IBM_Security_Verify_Governance_Lifecycle-xxxx.swidtag and ibm.com_IBM_Security_Verify_Governance_Compliance-xxxx.swidtag files. So, if an application adapter is already
installed and this is an infra adapter, then only install the infra-specific swidtags and the other way around. Please visit IBM Security Verify Governance
Adapters v10.x link to identify the adapter type of the installed
adapters.
Chapter 4: Upgrading
->
Upgrading the adapter binaries or connector
(Please Add
Upgrading the adapter binaries or connector section at Upgrading >
Upgrading the adapter binaries or connector)
- Take backup of adapter binaries or connector
Procedure:
Take backup of below files before performing upgrade:
<SDI-HOME>/jars/connectors/ ISVGAdmRealmConnector.jar
Note: Stop the dispatcher service before the upgrading the connector and start it again after the upgrade is complete.
- Upgrade adapter binaries or connector Procedure:
Copy
ISVGAdmRealmConnector.jar from the adapter package to the
<SDI-HOME>/jars/connectors directory
- Upgrading the adapter profile
Read the adapter Release Notes for any specific instructions before you import a new adapter profile.
There is ISVGAdmRealmConnector.jar included in the IBM Security Verify Governance Admin Realm Adapter distribution package.
Note: Restart the Dispatcher service after importing the profile. Restarting the Dispatcher clears the assembly lines cache and ensures that the dispatcher runs the assembly lines from the updated adapter profile.
