6.6.2 Installed <strong>Novell</strong> Plug-in Modules<br />

This list contains the NPMs that have been installed in <strong>iManager</strong>. Each NPM is listed by name, local<br />

version, and description found in the current manifest files.<br />

<strong>iManager</strong> 2.7 does not include all plug‐in modules as part of the base product. Most <strong>iManager</strong> 2.7<br />

plug‐ins must be downloaded separately. However, the following plug‐ins are included in the<br />

base.npm module that ships with <strong>iManager</strong> 2.7:<br />

• Directory <strong>Administration</strong><br />

• Partitions and Replicas<br />

• Help Desk<br />

• Schema<br />

• Rights<br />

• Users<br />

• Groups<br />

For more information, see Chapter 5, “Roles and Tasks,” on page 33.<br />

IMPORTANT: To function properly, a plug‐in moduleʹs version must be compatible with the version<br />

of <strong>iManager</strong> on which it is running. Refer to the specific product documentation for information<br />

about <strong>iManager</strong> version requirements for a particular plug‐in module.<br />

For example, <strong>iManager</strong> 2.7 plug‐ins are not compatible with previous versions of <strong>iManager</strong>.<br />

Additionally, any custom plug‐ins you want to use with <strong>iManager</strong> 2.7 must be re‐compiled in the<br />

<strong>iManager</strong> 2.7 environment.<br />

6.7 Downloading and Installing Plug-in Modules<br />

<strong>iManager</strong> 2.7 lets you download and install updates to existing and new plug‐ins from within<br />

<strong>iManager</strong>. <strong>iManager</strong> automatically queries the <strong>Novell</strong> Download Web site once a week for plug‐ins.<br />

NOTE: Plug‐in modules are not replicated between <strong>iManager</strong> servers. We recommend that you<br />

install the plug‐in modules you want on each <strong>iManager</strong> server.<br />

To download and install one or more plug‐in modules:<br />

1 Launch <strong>iManager</strong> and log in.<br />

2 In the Configure view, select Plug‐in Installation > Available <strong>Novell</strong> Plug‐in Modules.<br />

The Content frame lists all the available <strong>iManager</strong> plug‐ins. <strong>iManager</strong> automatically checks the<br />

<strong>Novell</strong> download site once a week for updated plug‐ins. However, you can update the list at any<br />

time by clicking the Refresh link.<br />

3 (Optional) If you have downloaded a plug‐in, or have one locally that you want to install, click<br />

Add, then browse for the appropriate plug‐in NPM file.<br />

4 Click OK.<br />

This returns you to the Available <strong>Novell</strong> Plug‐in Modules page.<br />

5 Select the plug‐in you want, then click Install.<br />
