Tivoli Access Manager server exists and is configured to use the user registry. For details on the installation and configuration of Tivoli Access Manager, refer to the IBM Tivoli Access Manager for e-business information center.

However, the server version must be the same version or later as the client version. For information on the supported version of Tivoli Access Manager, see WebSphere Application Server - Supported Prerequisites.
Tivoli Access Manager server is bundled with WebSphere Application Server.
WebSphere Application Server is installed either in a single server model or as WebSphere Application Server Network Deployment.
