Identity Management Properties Configuration

The im.properties file contains a number of properties that need to be modified with the variables that are specific to your environment. The Identity Management cell needs these properties to deploy correctly and to set required parameters.


The properties within the im.properties file have been grouped together based on their function. For instance, the group of PM Cell Properties addresses the communication between the IM and PM Cells. The following list shows the groups we will be editing during this step of the installation.


Group 1:   Bootstrap schema name
Group 2:   Project Management Cell Properties
Group 3:   Check Patient in Project
Group 4:   Properties for third party EMPI services
