To Configure Java Settings With the Control Panel

  1. Change to the appropriate directory.
    (UNIX, Linux)  $ cd install-dir/bin
    (Windows)      C:\> cd install-dir\bat
  2. Type control-panel to open the control panel.
    (UNIX, Linux)  $ control-panel
    (Windows)      C:\> control-panel

  4. To specify a path for the Java home directory, accept the default value specified by the OPENDS_JAVA_HOME environment variable, or select the Use the following value button and enter the path in its field.

    You can also click the Browse button to select a Java home directory from a list of directories.

    If you specify that the directory server is to use OPENDS_JAVA_HOME and the directory server cannot access OPENDS_JAVA_HOME for any reason, it uses the path specified for the Java home directory. Similarly, if you specify an inaccessible path for the Java home directory, the directory server uses OPENDS_JAVA_HOME.

  5. To specify arguments for directory server commands, accept the default value specified by the OPENDS_JAVA_ARGS environment variable, or specify arguments for a particular command.

    To specify arguments for a particular command, select the command from the Command-Line Name column and edit the command's arguments in the Java Arguments column.

    If you specify that the directory server should use the arguments in OPENDS_JAVA_ARGS and the directory server cannot access OPENDS_JAVA_ARGS for any reason, it uses the arguments specified in this window. Similarly, if you specify unusable arguments for a command, the directory server uses the values specified for the command in OPENDS_JAVA_ARGS.

  6. Click OK button to save your settings.
