Adding an Admin Domain or Virtual Fabric list
1. From the Windows Start menu, select Programs> Administrative Tools> ADSI.msc
ADSI is a Microsoft Windows Resource Utility. This will need to be installed to proceed with the
rest of the setup. For Windows 2003, this utility comes with Service Pack 1 or you can
download this utility from the Microsoft website.
2. Go to CN=Users.
3. Right click on select Properties. Click the Attribute Editor tab.
4. Double-click the adminDescription attribute.
This opens the String Attribute Editor dialog box.
5. Perform the appropriate action based on whether you are using Administrative Domains or
Virtual Fabrics:
•
If you are using Administrative Domains, enter the value of the Admin Domain separated
by an underscore ( _ ) into the Value field.
Example for adding Admin Domains
adlist_0_10_200_endAd
Home Admin Domain (homeAD) for the user will be the first value in the adlist (Admin
Domain list). If a user has no values assigned in the adlist attribute, then the homeAD ‘0’
will be the default administrative domain for the user.
•
If you are using Virtual Fabrics, enter the value of the logical fabric separated by an
semi-colon ( ; ) into the Value field.
Example for adding Virtual Fabrics
HomeLF=10;LFRoleList=admin:128,10;ChassisRole=admin
In this example, the logical switch that would be logged into by default is 10. If 10 is not
available then the lowest FID available will be chosen. You would have permission to enter
logical switch 128 and 10 in an admin role and you would also have the chassis role
permission of admin.
NOTE
You can perform batch operations using the Ldifde.exe utility. For more information on
importing and exporting schemas, refer to your Microsoft documentation or visit
www.microsoft.com.
