Middleware configuration utility might not recognize or support your version of the IBM Security Directory Server

The middleware configuration utility might not recognize or support your version of the IBM Security Directory Server, which generates error messages.


Problem

If you continue to use the middleware configuration utility to configure with any missing or unsupported version of the IBM Security Directory Server, we might encounter configuration problems.

The middleware configuration utility does not support the use of IBM Security Identity Manager with any missing or incorrect versions of the IBM Security Directory Server.


Solution

For UNIX
When starting the middleware configuration utility, use the following command line argument:
-W ITIMRSP.idsInstalledDir=sds_install_location
sds_install_location is the IBM Security Directory Server installation directory.

For Windows
To manually configure the IBM Security Directory Server, see more information at Configure IBM Security Directory Server manually.Important: When to manage the virtual appliance for networking, use only a static IP address to map with a valid host name.
