SUSE: Install fontconfig dependency

  • To generate Captchas, the font configuration library and FreeType must be installed:
  • RHEL –yum install freetype fontconfig
  • Ubuntu Server – apt install fontconfig
  • SUSE – zypper install libfreetype6 fontconfig

Java Runtime, JVM

Airlock IAM bundles the Java runtime and JVM as part of the distribution, and it does not need to be installed on the target system.

Datastores

Airlock IAM requires a datastore to store user- and other data, see User data source configuration (databases and directories).

The chosen data layer has to be well managed and monitored. IAM is not responsible for the operation and backup/recovery. This is also true if the H2 database shipped with IAM is used. For productive usage, the data layer should be clustered.

  • Supported databases and directories:
  • Databases – PostgreSQL, Oracle, MySQL, MariaDB, Microsoft SQL Server, H2 (other databases with JDBC may work but are not supported).
  • LDAP directories (you need to extend your schema).
  • Microsoft Active Directory (no schema extension required but limits IAM features - see Microsoft Active Directory (MSAD) for Airlock IAM).

Note that most Airlock IAM features require a relational database.

User profile information and selected other data may be stored in a directory, but an additional relational database is still required for most features.
