Starting and Stopping the Directory Server
You can set up the directory server in two modes:
Graphical user interface (GUI) mode. GUI mode uses a Java-based graphical installer that enables you to set up the directory server, load it with data, and get it running in very little time. The installer asks some basic questions about the server configuration and then gives you the choice of leaving your database empty, loading the server with data from your own LDIF or loading the server with automatically generated sample data. The installer also enables you to configure security and replication, and, optionally, to start the server when the configuration is complete. Finally, the installer includes the ability to invoke the GUI control panel at the end of the configuration process.
Command-line mode. The command-line mode prompts you for required information before the configuration begins.
(UNIX, Linux) $ cd SunOpenDS_SE2.0 (Windows) C:\> cd SunOpenDS_SE2.0
The utility launches the graphical installer.
(UNIX, Linux) $ setup (Windows) C:\> setup.bat
The default is the local host name.
If you run the installer as the root user, the default port is 389 . If you run the installer as a non-root user, the default port is 1389.
The default administration port is 4444. For more information, see Managing Administration Traffic to the Server in Sun OpenDS Standard Edition 2.0 Administration Guide.
Complete the following information:
If you run the installer as the root user, the default secure port is 636. If you run the installer as a non-root user, the default secure port is 1636.
For production servers, click Use an Existing Certificate, and then click the Keystore Type. Type the Keystore Path, and Keystore PIN if necessary.
For instructions on setting up a replicated topology, see Setting Up Replication During Installation.
The default Base DN is dc=example,dc=com.
Click Start Server when Configuration has Completed to automatically start the server after the directory server has been configured. On Windows systems, click Start Server as a Windows service, if desired. Click Finish.
(UNIX, Linux) $ cd SunOpenDS_SE2.0 (Windows) C:\> cd SunOpenDS_SE2.0
(UNIX, Linux) $ setup --cli (Windows) C:\> setup.bat -cli
If you run the installer as the root user, the default port is 389. If you run the installer as a non-root user, the default port is 1389.
