When setting up replication servers using the graphical installer or the dsreplication command, you are prompted to set a user name and password for the Global Administrator. The Global Administrator is responsible for managing and maintaining administrative server domains in replicated environments.
The Global Administrator exists in the cn=Administrators,cn=admin data subtree. To view the Global Administrator entry, run the following ldapsearch command:
$ ldapsearch -h localhost -p 1389 -D "cn=Directory Manager" -w password \ -b "cn=Administrators,cn=admin data" -s sub "(objectclass=*)" dn: cn=Administrators,cn=admin data objectClass: top objectClass: groupofurls description: Group of identities which have full access. cn: Administrators memberURL: ldap:///cn=Administrators,cn=admin data??one?(objectclass=*) dn: cn=admin,cn=Administrators,cn=admin data objectClass: person objectClass: top userPassword: {SSHA}+ed1wbhcWjxtv2zJ6OHEA2TuE9n1qIJGnuR94w== description: The Administrator that can manage all the OpenDS instances. cn: admin sn: admin
