Installation guide

packages must already be installed, and the Administration Server must already

be configured and running.

1. Make the setup .inf file. It must specify the following directives:

[General]

FullMachineName= dir.example.com

SuiteSpotUserID= nobody

SuiteSpotGroup= nobody

[slapd]

ServerPort= 389

ServerIdentifier= dir

Suffix= dc=example,dc=com

RootDN= cn=Directory Manager

RootDNPwd= password123

NOTE

There are two sections of directives in the instance creation: [General] and

[slapd]. Installing the Administration Server, which is done in a default setup

file, requires a third parameter as well, [admin], for the Administration Server.

This parameters correspond to the information supplied during a typical setup. The .inf file

directives are described more in Section 3.5.1, “.inf File Directives”.

2. Run the setup-ds-admin.pl script with the -s and -f options.

/usr/sbin/setup-ds-admin.pl -s -f /export/ds-inf/setup-single.inf

Running setup-ds-admin.pl installs only a Directory Server instance, so the setup file must

specify parameters only for the Directory Server. -s runs the script in silent mode, and -f

/export/ds-inf/setup.inf specifies the setup file to use.

After the script runs, the new Directory Server instance is configured and running, as with a

standard setup.
