The setup-ds-admin.pl script applies all default options for the Directory Server configuration,
including the instance name (for example, ldap.example.com), domain (for example,
example.com), suffix (for example, dc=example, dc=com), and port numbers (389 for the
Directory Server instance and 9830 for the Administration Server).
When the setup-ds-admin.pl script is done, then the Directory Server is configured and running.
To log into the Directory Server Console to begin setting up your directory service, do the following:
1. Get the Administration Server port number from the Listen parameter in the console.conf
configuration file.
grep \^Listen /etc/dirsrv/admin-serv/console.conf
Listen 0.0.0.0:9830
2. Using the Administration Server port number, launch the Console.
/usr/bin/redhat-idm-console -a http://localhost:9830
NOTE
If you do not pass the Administration Server port number with the redhat-idm-console
command, then you are prompted for it at the Console login screen.
