Install Tivoli Directory Server

If necessary, use the information in this file to install IBM® Tivoli® Directory Server so that you can set up and configure Tivoli Directory Server as the LDAP server for IBM WebSphere® Portal Express.

 

Install Tivoli Directory Server

 

Windows and Linux: WebSphere Portal Express only includes the Install Shield for MultiPlatform (ISMP) version of the Tivoli Directory Server installation program. If you have a previous version of Tivoli Directory Server, you might need the UnixNativeInstaller to migrate to the current version. Follow the instructions for installing Tivoli Directory Server using the ISMP installation program. For installation instructions, refer to the Tivoli Directory Server Installation and Configuration Guide.

 

Verify Tivoli Directory Server LDAP

You can use the ldapsearch command from the command line on the LDAP server to verify that Tivoli Directory Server is installed and working correctly.

ldapsearch -h <hostname> -s base objectclass=*

If Tivoli Directory Server has not been installed correctly, you will receive the error "Could not connect to LDAP server."

 

i5/OS: Directory Services (LDAP) is automatically installed when you install OS/400. The directory server includes a default configuration that automatically starts the directory server when TCP/IP is started. The directory server also starts publishing computer information from OS/400 to the directory server. To customize the LDAP directory servers settings, run the Directory Services Configuration Wizard. You must have *ALLOBJ and *IOSYSCFG special authorities in order to use the wizard.

Read the Tivoli Directory Server documentation for more information.
