Installation guide

NOTE
The setup program also runs dsktune, reports the findings, and asks you if you want to continue
with the setup procedure every time a Directory Server instance is configured.
Red Hat recommends running dsktune before beginning to set up the Directory Server instances so
that you can properly configure your kernel settings and install any missing patches. T he dsktune utility
is in the /usr/bin directory. T o run it, simply use the appropriate command:
/usr/bin/dsktune
