Deployment Example 1: Access Manager 7.1 Load Balancing, Distributed Authentication UI, and Session Failover

ProcedureTo Enable Multi-Master Replication for User Data Instance on Directory Server 1

  1. As a root user, log in to the DirectoryServer–1 host machine.

  2. (Optional) Run dsconf list-suffixes to verify that the instance is not already enabled for replication.


    # cd /var/opt/mps/serverroot/ds6/bin
    # ./dsconf list-suffixes -p 1489 -v
    Enter "cn=Directory Manager" password: d1rm4n4ger
    ...
    dc=company,dc=com 	1		not-replicated		N/A		N/A		29
    The "list-suffixes" operation succeeded on "DirectoryServer-1.example.com:1489"

    The base suffix of the instance is not-replicated as displayed in the resulting list.

  3. Run dsconf enable-repl to enable replication.


    # ./dsconf enable-repl -h DirectoryServer-1.example.com 
      -p 1489 -d 11 master dc=company,dc=com
    Enter "cn=Directory Manager" password: d1rm4n4ger
    Use "dsconf create-repl-agmt" to create replication agreements on
    "dc=company,dc=com".

    The -d option takes as input a randomly chosen identifier to represent the Directory Server 1 configuration data instance; in this case, 11. master indicates that the instance is a master and not a replica. The base suffix is specified as dc=company,dc=com.

  4. Run dsconf list-suffixes again to verify that the instance is now enabled for replication.


    # ./dsconf list-suffixes -p 1489 -v
    Enter "cn=Directory Manager" password: d1rm4n4ger
    ...
    dc=company,dc=com 	1		master(11)		N/A		N/A		29
    The "list-suffixes" operation succeeded on 
    "DirectoryServer-1.example.com:1489"

    The base suffix of the instance is master(11) as displayed in the resulting list, indicating that the master was successfully enabled.

  5. Log out of the DirectoryServer–1 host machine.
