Specifying Datastore Names in an ADS Account Template

Important: The following is an alternate way to specify the Datastore Name. You can also specify the datastore name using the Home Server and Mailbox Datastore fields on the Provisioning Manager.

Note: When you create an ADS account template that uses a rule string for the name of a Microsoft Exchange server, do not specify the datastore location. Datastores are dependent on the server name.

To create a default location for the datastore, follow these steps:

  1. Open the default.e2k file located in the following directory:
    \PS_HOME\data\ads
    

    Note: This file should be manually created if needed and should contain two columns. The first column contains the Relative Distinguished Name (RDN) of the Microsoft Exchange server. The second column contains the RDN of the datastore that is used as the default.

  2. Update this file by entering the RDN of the datastore or a complete DN in the second column. If you enter the RDN, you must specify a unique value. In addition, the second column must be delimited with a double quote.
  3. After saving and closing the file, you must restart the C++ Connector Server.
