Installation guide

Installing or Upgrading NetIQ eDirectory on Windows 65
Language Settings
The eDirectory Installer language settings configure the locale and set the display language.
There are currently three locale options that can be set during installation: English, French and
Japanese. Each has a specific key in the
[Novell:Languages:1.0.0] tag that can be set to True/False
prior to the start of installation.
 LangID4: English. Setting this to True configures the English locale during installation.
 LangID6: French. Setting this to True configures the French locale during installation.
 LangID9: Japanese. Setting this to True configures the Japanese locale during installation.
These options are mutually exclusive, which is easily enforced in manual installation via radio
buttons. In unattended installations, you need to ensure only one of them is set to True.
The following is sample text in the response file for configuring an English locale:
[Novell:Languages:1.0.0]
LangID4=true
LangID6=false
LangID9=false
Status messages about the configuration of each component are displayed in message boxes
throughout the installation. By default, these messages are in English. You can also change the
display language during installation by using the
DisplayLanguage key in the [Initialization]
tag.
 DisplayLanguage: This key is in the
[Initialization] section. Its parameters configure
languages.The following is sample text in the response file for configuring English as the display
language:

DisplayLanguage=en_US
Configuration Mode Settings
If the setup mentioned in the mode key is configure , then ensure that you do not change the
RestrictNodeRemove value of the ConfigurationMode key in the [Initialization] section.
Controlling Automated Installation
The response file can also be edited to control the flow of automated installation.
Stopping SNMP services
This feature is specific to an eDirectory installation on Windows. Most Windows servers have SNMP
configured and running. When eDirectory installs, the SNMP services need to be brought down and
restarted after the installation. With manual installations, the Installer prompts the user on-screen to
stop the SNMP services before continuing the installation. This prompt can be avoided during
automation by setting the key in the
[NWI:SNMP] tag:
 Stop service: Set the value to Yes to stop the SNMP services without prompting. The status of is
displayed on-screen.
