Integrating the Sun ONE Directory with the SDX Software

The tasks to integrate the Sun ONE Directory Server with the SDX software are:

1. Installing the Solaris 8 or higher operating system and the patches that the Sun ONE directory server requires. See the documentation for Sun ONE directory Server for details.
2. Installing the Sun ONE Directory Add-On Package
3. Configuring an Instance of Sun ONE Directory Server

Before you can integrate the Sun ONE Directory Server software with the SDX software, you must have access to the Sun ONE Directory Server 5.1 Service Pack 2 software. The Sun ONE Directory Server Service Pack 2 software is not included with your SDX software.

Obtain the software by downloading the Sun ONE Directory Server 5.1 Service Pack 2 software from the Sun Microsystems Web site at:

http://www.sun.com/software/download/products/3e5beea5.html

Installing the Sun ONE Directory Add-On Package

You must install the Sun ONE Directory add-on package for the SDX software before you install Sun One Directory Server. For information about installing the package, see SDX Getting Started Guide, Chapter 5, Installing the SDX-300 Software.

Configuring an Instance of Sun ONE Directory Server

You must create a new instance of the Sun ONE Directory to integrate the Sun ONE Directory Server software with the SDX software.

To create an instance of Sun ONE Directory and integrate it with the SDX software:

1. Uncompress the archive file that you downloaded from the Sun Microsystems Web site by executing the command:

gzip -dc <filename> .tar.gz | tr -xvof-

where <filename> is the name of the TAR file.

2. Move to the directory that contains the expanded files.

For example, if you saved the downloaded file into the directory /tmp/DS, enter:

cd /tmp/DS

3. Enter the following command to install an instance of the directory by using the sdx.inf file:

./setup -s -f /opt/UMC/conf/iDS/sdx.inf

4. Move to the following directory:

/opt/UMC/conf/iDS

5. Enter the following command to run the load script:

./load

After the script updates the schema, loads the directory infrastructure, and creates the access controls, the script prompts you to load the sample data. An example is shown in the following window.

After the script finishes running, SDX components can use the Sun ONE Directory Server.
