SETUP-DS-ADMIN.PL(8)					  SETUP-DS-ADMIN.PL(8)

NAME
       setup-ds-admin.pl  -  Set  up an instance of Directory Server and Admin
       Server

SYNOPSIS
       setup-ds-admin.pl [--options] -- [args]

DESCRIPTION
       Set up a Directory Server and Admin Server.  Creates the	 configuration
       files  for  an  instance	 of Directory Server based on a few parameters
       like the hostname, port	number,	 and  directory	 manager  information.
       Creates	the  configuration  files for the Admin Server.	 Starts up the
       servers.	 This command does the set up necessary for  the  use  of  the
       Console and the Admin Express web interface.

       If the Admin Server has already been set up, this command will create a
       new instance of Directory Server and register it with the Admin	Server
       so that it can be managed with the Console.

       Use  this  command with the --update option after an upgrade to refresh
       the server information (version, build number, etc.) in the Console.

       Can be run in interactive mode with different levels of	verbosity,  or
       in silent mode with parameters supplied in a .inf format file or on the
       command line.

OPTIONS
       A summary of options is included below:

       --help This message

       --version
	      Print the version and exit

       --debug
	      Turn on debugging

       --silent
	      Use silent setup - no user input

       --file=name
	      Use the file 'name' in .inf format to supply the default answers

       --keepcache
	      Do not delete the temporary .inf file generated by this program

       --logfile
	      Log setup messages to this file - otherwise, a temp file will be
	      used

       --update
	      Refresh  the  information used by the Console for all servers on
	      this machine.  Use this after an upgrade to make sure  the  Con‐
	      sole reports the correct information.

       For all options, you can also use the short name e.g. -h, -d, etc.  For
       the -d argument, specifying it more than once will increase  the	 debug
       level e.g. -ddddd

       args: You can supply default .inf data in this format:

	      section.param=value

       e.g.

	      General.FullMachineName=foo.example.com

       or

	      "slapd.Suffix=dc=example, dc=com"

       Values passed in this manner will override values in an .inf file given
       with the -f argument.
