Security Directory Server Instance Administration tool does not display instance on Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6

After we install Security Directory Server with the installation wizard typical installation path, the default instance is created. However, on Red Hat Linux®, version 6, the Instance Administration tool started at the end of installation does not display the instance.

To verify the default instance is listed in the configuration, use the idsilist command. By default, this command is in the /opt/ibm/ldap/V6.3/sbin/ directory. For details about the command, see the IBM Security Directory Server, product documentation.

Although the instance does not display in the UI, we can follow the command-line tool configuration steps as documented in the ADK Installation topics in the Knowledge Center.

To use an instance other than the default instance that is created by the Security Directory Server installer, use command-line tools to create and configure a non-default instance. See the Security Directory Server documentation for more information.
