Preface
This installation guide describes the Red Hat Directory Server 8.0 installation process and the
migration process. This manual provides detailed step-by-step procedures for all supported operating
systems, along with explanations of the different setup options (express, typical, custom, and silent),
additional options for Directory Server instance creation, migrating previous versions of Directory
Server, and troubleshooting and basic usage.
IMPORTANT
Directory Server 8.0 provides a migration tool for upgrading or migrating from earlier
Directory Server versions. If you already have a Directory Server deployment that is
supported for migration, you must use the documented migration procedure to migrate
your data and configuration to version 8.0.
Chapter 8, Migrating from Previous Versions
has for more information.
The Directory Server setup process requires information specific to the Directory Server instance
being configured, information about the host names, port numbers, passwords, and IP addresses that
will be used. The setup program attempts to determine reasonable default values for these settings
based on your system environment. Read through this manual before beginning to configure the
Directory Server to plan ahead what values to use.
TIP
If you are installing Directory Server for evaluation, use the express or typical setup mode.
These processes are very fast, and can help get your directory service up and running
quickly.
IMPORTANT
Red Hat Directory Server 8.0 introduces filesystem paths for configuration files, scripts,
commands, and database files used with Directory Server which comply with Filesystem
Hierarchy Standard (FHS). This file layout is very different than previous releases of
Directory Server, which installed all of the files and directories in
/opt/redhat-ds
or
/opt/netscape
. If you encounter errors during the installation process, look at
Section 7.7, “Troubleshooting”
. For more information on how the file layout has changed,
see
Section 7.1, “Directory Server File Locations”
.
The latest Directory Server release is available for your platform and operating system through
Red
Hat Network
(RHN) at
http://rhn.redhat.com/
.

All of the examples for Red Hat Directory Server commands, file locations, and other usage are given

for your platform.
