Installing the schema extensions

The Host On-Demand extensions to the LDAP directory schema are provided in several files that are located in the LDAP subdirectory of the publish directory (for example, your_install_directory\HOD\ldap, where your_install_directory is your Host On-Demand installation directory). These files contain extensions to the LDAP schema and are stored in the standard slapd format. The schema extensions must be in effect before Host On-Demand can store configuration information in an LDAP server. Contact your LDAP administrator to have these schema extensions installed.

Refer to the Program Directory for instructions on installing the schema extensions for the zSeries.

 Your LDAP administrator may have already installed these schema extensions for use by another IBM product. If so, skip these steps. If you are using the IBM Directory Server Version 3.1.1 or later, the schema is pre-installed, so you can skip these steps also.
