Install the Directory Package Using a Command

The dxsetup script lets you install the Directory package.

To install the Directory package using a command

1. Log in as root.
2. Insert the CA Directory installation CD (if required).
3. Open a command prompt.
4. Change to the following directory:

   CD-ROM/dxserver/install
   

5. Run the dxsetup script, with the options described in dxsetup Command—Install the Directory Package.

dxsetup Command—Install the Directory Package

Use the dxsetup command to install the components in the Directory installation package, as follows:

./dxsetup.sh [-nodocs] [-r source_directory] [-dxuser username]  [-dxadmindpass password] 
[-write_responses response-file | -silent | -responsefile response-file]

-nodocs

Installs the Directory package without installing the user documentation.

-r source_directory

Runs dxsetup from a location other than the current directory.

-dxuser username

Specifies a username other than the default, which is dsa.

-dxadmindpass password

Specifies the DXadmind password. This removes the need to include the password in the response file.

-write_responses response-file

Create a response file that can be used to install CA Directory silently.

This does not install CA Directory.

-silent

Installs CA Directory silently.

-responsefile response-file

Installs CA Directory using the options listed in the response file.

Example: Install CA Directory without documentation

The following command installs CA Directory without the user documentation, and using an existing account named dsaadmin:

./dxsetup.sh -nodocs -dxuser dsaadmin
