HP-UX Directory Server 8.1 administrator guide

The Create new sub suffix dialog box is displayed.
3. Enter a unique suffix name in the New suffix field. The suffix must be named in line with
dc naming conventions, such as ou=groups.
The root suffix is automatically added to the name. For example, if the sub suffix ou=groups
is created under the dc=example,dc=com suffix, the Console automatically names it
ou=groups,dc=example,dc=com.
4. Select the Create associated database automatically checkbox to create a database at the
same time as the new sub suffix, and enter a unique name for the new database in the
Database name field, such as example2. The name can be a combination of alphanumeric
characters, dashes (-), and underscores (_). No other characters are allowed.
If the checkbox is not selected, then the database for the new sub suffix must be created later.
The new sub suffix is disabled until a database is created.
The suffix appears automatically under its root suffix in the Data tree in the left navigation pane.
