After DSfW installation is done, you must run the Provisioning Wizard to complete the DSfW configuration process. To launch the wizard, do one of the following:
From the terminal, run the /opt/novell/xad/sbin/provision_dsfw.sh script.
Launch YaST. The DSfW Provisioning Wizard is listed as an option.
This opens the login dialog box.
NOTE:If you do not provision the DSfW server every time you login, a dialog box indicating that DSfW configuration is not complete is displayed. The DSfW server will not be functional till the provisioning is completed.
Enter the password in the login dialog box, depending on the scenario in which you are provisioning.
Table 8-2 Authentication Details for Provisioning
|
Provisioning Scenario |
Password Details Required |
|---|---|
|
Non-name-mapped, forest root domain |
The current domain password. |
|
Name-mapped, forest root domain |
The current domain password and the tree admin password. |
|
Non-name-mapped child |
The current domain password, the parent domain password, and the tree/container admin password. |
|
Name-mapped child |
The current domain password, the parent domain password, and the tree/container admin password. |
|
additional domain controller |
The current domain and tree admin password. |
After the password details are verified, the Provisioning Wizard is launched.
IMPORTANT:If you are installing the first child domain in a non-name-mapped scenario, the tree admin and the parent domain password is the same.
For name mapped installation scenarios, the Enable Custom Provisioning check box is enabled. This check box remains disabled for all non-name mapped and ADC installation scenarios. To enable custom provisioning, continue with Step 3.

If you don’t want to customize provisioning, leave the Enable Custom Provisioning check box deselected. Click OK, then follow the on-screen prompts to configure DSfW and the supporting services to complete the installation process and make the DSfW server ready for use.
Select the Enable Custom Provisioning check box and click OK. Custom provisioning enables you to add multiple eDirectory partitions to a DSfW domain.
Select the partitions that you want to map to the domain. When you select a partition, validation checks are performed on the partition before mapping it to the domain.
IMPORTANT:If the replica is not local, you cannot select the partition. To map a partition to the domain, you must first ensure that the replica is present on the local server and then click Refresh to reload the tree view. You can then select the partitions from the tree view.
Click Next to continue with the DSfW provisioning process.
