IM - Upgrade to AD Endpoint

Products

• CA Identity Manager

Issue/Introduction

Scenario:

 

A CA Identity Manager (IM) Endpoint is configured on an Active Directory Window 2012 Server.  This needs to be upgraded to Windows 2016 with an update to the domain and forest level to 2016.  The name and ip address will be the same.

The AD Information is displayed in the Provisioning Manager for the existing Endpoint.  Are there any configuration requirements within the imps (IM Provisioning Server)?

Environment

Release : 14.x

Component : Identity Manager

Resolution

The functional level data is returned by AD and is informational only, there is nothing to change from the Endpoint perspective. 

14.4 CP2 includes a fix to address this issue:
