The Gateway may be installed on at least Windows 2000 SP3 and Windows 2003 platforms
You should run an instance of the Gateway on multiple machines to prevent the Gateway from becoming a single point of failure. Configure network to provide failover if the main Gateway instance dies.
Systems that are running the Identity Manager Gateway should be configured so that Dr. xWatson does not produce visual notifications. If this feature is set and the Gateway encounters an error, the process will hang until the pop-up window is closed.
