Additional Information

If you are running provisioning server from a location other than /opt/CA remember to edit the INSTALLDIR and SERVICE_CONFIG_FILE parameters in imps located in the bin directory. 

If provisioning server is running as a user other than imps, you must also change the SLAPDUSER in imps located in the bin directory. 

INSTALLDIR=/opt/CA/IdentityManager/ProvisioningServer
SLAPDUSER=imps
SERVICE_CONFIG_FILE=/opt/CA/IdentityManager/ProvisioningServer/data/imps_services.dat
