dsktune
Utility
Directory Server provides a utility named
dsktune
that can help you verify whether you have the
appropriate patches installed on your system. The utility also provides useful information and advice
on how to tune your kernel parameters for best performance.
To enable you to run
dsktune
before installing the Directory Server, the utility is placed, along with
the setup program, in the directory where you unpack product binaries. The setup program allows
specifying of a pre-pre-installation program to be run before the Directory Server installation begins;
in the slapd.inf file, a new field named
PrePreInstall
is defined for specifying the path to the
executable, which must be relative to the setup program. By default, the PrePreInstall field is set to
the
dsktune
utility path, enabling you to run the utility as a part of the Directory Server installation.
After you have installed the Directory Server, you can find the utility in this directory:
serverRoot
/bin/slapd/server
For information on running
dsktune
, see Chapter 7
Troubleshooting
.
Tip
Tip: It is strongly recommended that you run the
dsktune
utility. Kernel parameters make a significant
performance difference; for example, in some cases on HP-UX systems, Directory Server may not
run on stock kernel parameters.
