Issue/Introduction

We have multiple Identity Manager servers and we would like to know if there is any way to configure multiple Identity Manager connectors and if so are there any concerns?

Environment

Release: 14.x
Component: SIGMA

Resolution

You can configure multiple IM connectors however there are 2 things to consider when doing so.

1. Notice that only one of then can be the main connector, so it's only through this connector that authentication will be done.
2. Request from IP will be sent only through the relevant IM connector, depends on the task you run (when you configure Task element in IP you need to specify the connector).
