To Create a Base Suffix for the Directory Server 1 Access Manager Configuration Data Instance

After creating the configuration data instance of DirectoryServer–1, create a base suffix in which the entries will be stored.

Before You Begin

This procedure assumes you have just completed To Create an Access Manager Configuration Data Instance for Directory Server 1.

1. As a root user on the Directory Server 1 host machine, run dsconf create-suffix to create a new base suffix.

   # cd /var/opt/mps/serverroot/ds6/bin # ./dsconf create-suffix -p 1389 -B dbExample -L /var/opt/mps/am-config/db/exampleDS dc=example,dc=com

2. Provide the appropriate information when prompted.

   Certificate "CN=DirectoryServer-1, CN=1636, CN=directory Server, O=Sun Microsystems" presented by the server is not trusted. Type "Y" to accept, "y" to accept just one, "n" to refuse, "d" for more details: Y Enter "cn=Directory Manager" password: d1rm4n4ger

   ---

   Tip –

   When you enter an uppercase Y, you are not asked for the certificate again in the next steps.

   ---

3. Run dsconf list-suffixes to verify that the base suffix was successfully created.

   # ./dsconf list-suffixes -p 1389 Enter "cn=Directory Manager" password: d1rm4n4ger dc=example,dc=com

4. Log out of the Directory Server 1 host machine.
