Symantec Access Management

Hi,

Where can I find the CA directory 14.0(DXSever) installble in .tat format? I can see only iso files and I downloaded & installed the same. 

Already provided this .tar.gz package to Vishal that is he looking for via support case that he opened. 

Experts,

Need good documentation on install /configure ca directory 14.0. So far able to install / configure directory and management ui. Trying below to create an directory instance..

bash-4.2$ ./dxserver install /application/dxserver/inst1
/application/dxserver/inst1 does not exist

Experts,

I found the way to create a dsa instance but when i try to run the below i get error as mentioned. Inputs appreciated.

bash-4.2$ ./dxnewdsa -s2000 dsainst1 4389 "o=xxxx,o=xxxx.com"
Cannot open datastore file 'data/dsainst1.db': No such file or directory
Cannot create file: openFile 9
Cannot create file: 9
Could not create new data store

Do you have space to create that .db file which will be of 2000MB (i.e. 2GB) in size. CA Directory pre-allocates a flatfile of that size even if there is no data. The other thing I would check is user permission for $DXHOME/data folder, which is where the .db file gets created OOB.

Thanks for the inputs.

So, i have close to 8GB available on that location. Also, the userID used for the initial install and above command are same. Not sure how to get over this..

appreciate any help.

I have a feeling we are missing ENV variables. Look like you installed CA Directory and on the same Telnet session are trying to create a new DSA instance. Did you source the dxprofile script ?

Once you install CA Directory.....

Logout of the telnet session. Login again to telnet session. This will ensure "dxprofile" is sourced and you'd have $DXHOME ENV variable set on your telnet session.

OR 

Open a new telnet session, login with non root user. This will ensure "dxprofile" is sourced and you'd have $DXHOME ENV variable set on your telnet session.

OR

If you are on the same telnet session which installed CA Directory, manually source dxprofile.sh.

If you'd like to know where is dxprofile.sh; check your non root users .bash_profile file once CA Directory install is complete.

Below line is confusing me that i got from the CA install document. Installation is complete, I do not have any directory instances yet, trying to use the below command i see that message. 

/application/CA/Directory/dxserver/config/servers

bash-4.2$ ./dxserver start all
Starting all dxservers
config/servers: No such file or directory

Note : In non-root installation, dsas do not startup automatically as it does not support the 'Auto Start' option. Therefore, non-root users should manually start the dsas after installation. 

Dennis,

Thanks for the inputs, could you please help with sequence of steps to source dxprofile.sh.

After install of CA Directory is completed. You can manually source it from this path. If your installation was done correctly, it should be added under .bash_profile of the OS user configured to run CA Directory.
