Hi All,

During the Lawson Core technology LSF9 installation, there is a step for 'Configuring Resource Management' where a valid DN is required.

We have created a valid DN by copying an existing DN, which was imported from an existing LDAP instance ( for test purpose).

We would like to CREATE a valid and empty DN for the new installation of LSF9.

Is there a easy way to create this DN?

The tool 'Tivoli Diectory Server Web Administration tool' looks quite complexe for this task.

We just want a simple, empty DN for LSF9 installation.

We are running on HP-UX, IBM Tivoli LDAP.

TIA for your inputs.

I posted the same topic on Secu Admin forum. then got some tips.

here are steps to do :
Create one DN with idsxcfg first, it will be empty
-> Manage Suffix
Create a Suffix here : o=lwsn,ou=law1,dc=ABC

Then use the Tivoli LDAP console

http://:12100/IDSWebApp/IDSjsp/Login.jsp
LDAP Hostname = :389
user: cn=root
password = xxxxxxx

diectory management -> Add an Entries , from ‘Structural onject Class’ dropdown list chose Organization -> Next
on next screen, left 'selected' Empty, simply click Next
On next screen, in Relative DN put o=lwsn,ou=law1,dc=ABC
Optional attribut : lwsn -> Finish

diectory management -> Manage Entries to verify that the new entry was created

Then during the LSF9 installation, the created DN can be used
