Welcome

Welcome to the IBM(R) Tivoli Directory Server Configuration Tool. This tool will help you configure the directory server on the local system.

If you have just installed IBM Tivoli Directory Server, set the administrator distinguished name (DN) and password, and then configure the database to be used to store your LDAP directory data. You must do both of these tasks before you can successfully start the server.

At any time, you can use the Configuration Tool to complete the following tasks:

Note: After you start running a command that takes a long time in the Configuration Tool, such as backing up the database, you can close the Configuration Tool and it will continue to run the command until it completes. You can then start the Configuration Tool again and check on the status of the command.

You can find more detailed help on the following elements of this window:
