Configuring Your Systems or Devices
For instructions on how to configure your Server Administrator or IT Assistant
systems using CLI commands, see "Configuring Active Directory Using CLI on
Systems Running Server Administrator" and "Configuring Active Directory on
Systems Running IT Assistant." For DRAC users, there are two ways to
configure DRAC 4. See either "Configuring the DRAC 4 Using the Web-
Based Interface" or "Configuring DRAC 4 and DRAC 5 Active Directory
Settings Using the racadm CLI."
NOTE: The systems on which Server Administrator and/or IT Assistant are installed
must be a part of the Active Directory domain and should also have computer
accounts on the domain.
Configuring Active Directory Using CLI on Systems Running Server Administrator
You can use the omconfig preferences dirservice command to configure the
Active Directory service. The productoem.ini file is modified to reflect these
changes. If the adproductname is not present in the productoem.ini file, a
default name will be assigned. The default value will be system name-
software-product name, where system name is the name of the system running
Server Administrator, and software-product name refers to the name of the
software product defined in omprv32.ini (that is, computerName-omsa).
NOTE: This command is applicable only on systems running the Windows
operating system.
NOTE: Restart the Server Administrator service after you have configured Active
Directory.
