170 Using Microsoft Active Directory
Configuring the Active Directory Product Name
To configure the Active Directory product name:
1
Locate the omsaoem.ini file in your installation directory.
2 Edit the file to add the line adproductname=text , where text is the
name of the product object that you created in Active Directory.
For example, the
omsaoem.ini file contains the following syntax if the
Active Directory product name is configured to
omsaApp .
productname=Server Administrator
startmenu=Dell OpenManage Applications
autdbid=omsa
accessmask=3
adsupport=true
adproductname=omsaApp
3
Restart the DSM SA Connection Service after saving the omsaoem.ini
file.
Extending the Active Directory Schema
RAC, Server Administrator, and IT Assistant schema extensions are available.
You only need to extend the schema for software or hardware that you are
using. Each extension must be applied individually to receive the benefit of
its software-specific settings. Extending your Active Directory schema will
add schema classes and attributes, example privileges and association objects,
and a Dell organizational unit to the schema.
NOTE: Before you extend the schema, you must have Schema Admin privileges on
the Schema Master Flexible Single Master Operation (FSMO) Role Owner of the
domain forest.
You can extend your schema using two different methods. You can use the
Dell Schema Extender utility, or you can use the Lightweight Directory
Interchange Format (LDIF) script file.
NOTE: The Dell organizational unit will not be added if you use the LDIF script file.
