NAME

7       Server

SYNOPSIS

10       setup-ds-admin.pl [--options] -- [args]
11

DESCRIPTION

13       Set up a Directory Server and Admin Server.  Creates the  configuration
14       files  for  an  instance  of Directory Server based on a few parameters
15       like the hostname, port  number,  and  directory  manager  information.
16       Creates  the  configuration  files for the Admin Server.  Starts up the
17       servers.  This command does the set up necessary for  the  use  of  the
18       Console and the Admin Express web interface.
19
20       If the Admin Server has already been set up, this command will create a
21       new instance of Directory Server and register it with the Admin  Server
22       so that it can be managed with the Console.
23
24       Use  this  command with the --update option after an upgrade to refresh
25       the server information (version, build number, etc.) in the Console.
26
27       Can be run in interactive mode with different levels of  verbosity,  or
28       in silent mode with parameters supplied in a .inf format file or on the
29       command line.
