# System Requirements

Exchange Connector can be installed as part of a larger system that includes an IDOL Server and an interface for the information stored in IDOL Server. To maximize performance, Micro Focus recommends that you install IDOL Server and the connector on different machines.

NOTE:

Ensure that the `DREReference` field in the configuration file of your IDOL server is set to a minimum size of 250 characters so that the extra information can be added to the reference at index time.

## Connector Machine

For information about the minimum system requirements required to run IDOL components, including Exchange Connector, refer to the IDOL Getting Started Guide.

Additional requirements for Exchange Connector are:

- A MAPI client (such as Microsoft Outlook) must be installed on the same machine as the connector. The platform of the connector and MAPI client must match (for example, the 64-bit connector with 64-bit Outlook).

- Before you can retrieve data using the Exchange Connector, you must create a MAPI profile to extract data from the Exchange repository.

NOTE:

The Exchange Connector Service must run as the account that owns the MAPI profile, rather than as the local system account.

## Exchange

MAPI connections must be installed and enabled on the Exchange server.

The MAPI profile that is used by the connector to retrieve data must have view-only administrator privileges.

## OmniGroupServer

To set up mapped security for documents retrieved from Exchange, you must also install OmniGroupServer. OmniGroupServer is required to extract NT security group information from Active Directory.
