3 Riva Background The Riva Collaboration Integration Platform was designed to satisfy the long-standing need to: Provide Novell ® GroupWise ® Content Management based on eDirectory ™ -based policies and information from Novell and third-party applications Provide automatic account content updates based on synchronization policies and applications (one-to-one or one-to- many) Deliver transparent, seamless and tight integration and interoperability for CRMs and other line-of-business applications for all Novell ® GroupWise ® clients

4 Manage GroupWise ® Like Never Before Riva delivers four components: 1.Managed Policies for automated content management 2.GroupWise ® Reports 3.Managed Applications for eDirectory ™ integration 4.CRM and third-party application and database connectors Source and destination objects: Source objects can be a GroupWise ® resource or account; an eDirectory object; or an external third-party application, CRM or database. Destination objects can be one or multiple eDirectory ™ accounts, groups, containers, or GroupWise ® accounts or post offices.

5 Riva Managed Policies Allow an administrator to manually or automatically manage GroupWise content for: Calendars (shared and standard) Address books (shared and standard) Folders (shared and standard) Categories* Rules* Proxy Access Birthday Reminders Internet Address Updates Password Expiration Reminder Emails * Requires GroupWise 7.0.3

Riva Managed Signatures Riva Dynamic Distribution Lists Riva Secure Distribution Lists Riva Managed External Domains Riva Managed Identity Integration (GroupWise for Active Directory)

8 Riva Integration Server: Integrate CRMs and Third-party Applications – Like Never Before The Riva Integration Server for Novell ® GroupWise ® integrates data from third-party databases, CRMs, ERPs, business processes, collaboration systems, management systems and others into GroupWise. Key Value: “Synchronization of data from virtually any source... to any Novell GroupWise destination, providing seamless, transparent synchronization.”

9 Novell ® eDirectory and GroupWise ® Microsoft Active Directory Think of Riva Identity Integration as providing a transparent bridge between...

10 Being Successful is About Being Transparent Active Directory and GroupWise play a critical role in your environments. To leverage the best of both worlds, companies need a transparent process to manage users in both systems. Riva is strategic with customers because it transparently integrates and synchronises Active Directory with eDirectory and GroupWise.

11 Why companies need it? With the End-of-Life for NetWare, many companies are m igrating from NetWare to Windows and want to continue to use GroupWise. Many companies already run Windows servers for authentication, file and print services and use GroupWise as their collaboration platform. Many companies are looking to migrate to GroupWise but don’t want to use ConsoleOne to manage GroupWise ® !

12 How does it work? Provides automatic Active Directory to eDirectory/GroupWise identify synchronisation Requires 15 minutes to install and configure No schema extensions or other services need to be installed on the target systems For existing systems, users with the same email address information (in both AD and eDir) are automatically linked The GroupWise LDAP Authentication value is set to point to Active Directory – users authenticate to GroupWise with their Active Directory password.

13 How does it work? Creating a new user in an in-scope OU in Active Directory causes that user to be created in eDirectory and GroupWise. The LDAP authentication value is set to point to Active Directory. The user authenticates to GroupWise with his Active Directory password When a new email-enabled group is created and members are added in Active Directory, the equivalent GroupWise distribution list and members are created Modifications to Active Directory group memberships are replicated to GroupWise distribution lists.

14 What gets synchronised? Active Directory user attributes including: Account status (enabled / disabled) Account expiration date Contact details (phone number, address, etc.) Demographic information And other relevant address book information

15 What are the best features? Allows a single point of administration for the two systems Microsoft Manage Console (or other Active Directory management applications like eControl) can now be used to provide GroupWise account and distribution list management Changes to Active Directory accounts, groups, passwords are transparently synchronised to eDirectory and GroupWise Can also be used by third-party developers to integrate Active Directory-aware applications with GroupWise

16 Riva Managed Identity Integration vs other Directory Synchronisation options? Non-intrusive - no directory schema extensions No complex design tools No database requirements No long and drawn-out implementations Single Riva server for multiple system deployments Easy to install, easy to manage Immediate user and administrator acceptance.
