Preface
Preface
Welcome to the
Managing Servers with Red Hat Management Console Guide.
Red Hat Directory Server and Admin Server have a special Java-based console which simplifies
administering the directories. T his guide covers the basic structure of the Red Hat Console for both the
Directory Server and the Admin Server and provides an overview of how to use the main Red Hat
Console to manage users and access within the Console.
1. Purpose of This Guide
T here are three Java consoles bundled together to manage the servers in Red Hat Directory Server:
T he Red Hat Management Console, which is the first console to open. T his has a unified view of all
Admin Server and Directory Server instances being managed and can perform basic user and group
tasks, like adding, searching, editing, and deleting entries.
T he Admin Server, which manages the Admin Server local instance, including viewing logs and
changing the Admin Server configuration.
T he Directory Server Console, a separate window for each Directory Server instance with manages
the server through changing configuration and viewing logs and performance monitors and manages
the directory and directory policies.
T his guide provides a basic overview of how to use and navigate through Red Hat Management
Console so that managing servers through the consoles is easy and effective.
2. Examples and Formatting
Each of the examples used in this guide, such as file locations and commands, have certain defined
conventions.
2.1. Command and File Examples
All of the examples for Red Hat Directory Server commands, file locations, and other usage are given for
Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5 (64-bit) systems. Be certain to use the appropriate commands and files for
your platform.
Example 1. Example Command
T o start the Red Hat Directory Server:
service dirsrv start
2.2. Brackets
Square brackets ([]) are used to indicate an alternative element in a name. For example, if a tool is
available in
/usr/lib
on 32-bit systems and in
/usr/lib64
on 64-bit systems, then the tool location
may be represented as
/usr/lib[64 ].
2.3. Client T ool Information
T he tools for Red Hat Directory Server are located in the
/usr/bin
and the
/usr/sbin
directories.

IMPORTANT
T he LDAP tools such as
ldapm odify
and
ldapsearch
from OpenLDAP use SASL
connections by default. T o perform a simple bind using a username and password, use the
-x
argument to disable SASL.
2.4 . T ext Formatting and Styles
Certain words are represented in different fonts, styles, and weights. Different character formatting is
used to indicate the function or purpose of the phrase being highlighted.
Formatting Style
Monospace font
Purpose
Monospace is used for commands, package names, files and directory
paths, and any text displayed in a prompt.
T his type of formatting is used for anything entered or returned in a
command prompt.
Monospace
with a
background
Italicized text
Any text which is italicized is a variable, such as
instance_name
or
hostname.
Occasionally, this is also used to emphasize a new term or other
phrase.
Most phrases which are in bold are application names, such as
Cygwin,
or
are fields or options in a user interface, such as a
User Nam e Here:
field
or
Save
button.
Bolded text
Other formatting styles draw attention to important text.
NOTE
A note provides additional information that can help illustrate the behavior of the system or
provide more detail for a specific issue.
IMPORTANT
Important information is necessary, but possibly unexpected, such as a configuration change that
will not persist after a reboot.
WARNING
A warning indicates potential data loss, as may happen when tuning hardware for maximum
performance.
