DirXML Log Event -------------------
Driver = \MYTREE\system\driverset1\ADDriver
Thread = Publisher Channel
Level = fatal
Message = Exception caused by PublicationShim->start()
Resolution
Using the 32bit Remote Loader and Active Directory Driver can possibly be used to workaround the issue.
Another option is to only enable ASLR for application which support ASLR.
This have been reported to engineering, and might be changed in a future release.
Cause
NetIQ Identity Manager does not support ASLR.
