Usage Notes

When working with lh commands, you must be aware of the following notes:

• To view the command usage help, type lh without any arguments.

• When setting the path environment variables for the lh command,

  • Set JAVA_HOME location to the JRE directory that contains a bin directory with the Java executable. This location differs depending on your installation.

    If you have a standard JRE from Sun (without the JDK), a typical directory location is C:\Program Files\Java\jre1.5.0_14 (or similar). This directory contains the bin directory with the Java executable. In this case, set JAVA_HOME to C:\Program Files\Java\jre1.5.0_14.

    A full JDK installation has more than one Java executable. In this case, set JAVA_HOME to the embedded jre directory, which contains the correct bin/java.exe file. For a typical installation, set JAVA_HOME to C:\java\jdk1.5.0_14\jre.

  • Set the WSHOME variable to the Identity Manager installation directory, as follows:

    set WSHOME=<path_to_identity_manager_directory>

    For example, to set the variable to the default installation directory, type:

    set WSHOME=C:\Program Files\tomcat\webapps\idm

    ---

    Note –

    The WSHOME variable value must not contain the following characters:

    • Quotation marks (“ “)

      Do not use quotation marks, even if the path to the application deployment directory contains spaces.

    • A backslash at the end of the path (\)

    ---

    On UNIX systems, you must also export the path variables by typing:

    export WSHOME
    export JAVA_HOME

• To run the command in 64-bit mode, uncomment the FLAGS="$FLAGS -d64" line in the lh script.

• To start the Identity Manager command-line interface

  • On Windows, type the following at a command line:

    %WSHOME%\bin\lh

  • On UNIX, type the following at a command line:

    $WSHOME/bin/lh
