install-path

The software is installed in directories below this base install-path. For example, Directory Server software is installed in install-path/ds6/.

When you install from a zip distribution using dsee_deploy(1M), the default install-path is the current directory. You can set the install-path using the -i option of the dsee_deploy command.

When you install from a native package distribution, such as you would using the Java Enterprise System installer, the default install-path is one of the following locations:

• Solaris systems - /opt/SUNWdsee/.

• Red Hat systems - /opt/sun/.

• Windows systems - C:\Program Files\Sun\JavaES5\DSEE.

Represents the full path to an instance of Directory Server or Directory Proxy Server.

The documentation uses /local/ds/ for Directory Server and /local/dps/ for Directory Proxy Server.
