Admin Express
3.1. Managing Servers in Admin Express
Admin Express provides a quick, simple web-based gateway to do basic management of servers.
There are three tasks that can be performed through Admin Express:
• Stopping and starting the server
• Checking the server access, error, and audit logs
• Monitoring the progress and information for replication between Directory Servers
3.1.1. Opening Admin Express
The Admin Server services pages URL is the Admin Server host and port. For example:
http://ldap.example.com:9830/
The Admin Express page is always available at that URL.
NOTE
If SSL/TLS is enabled on the Admin Server, then the URL must use the prefix https:
with the same port number. The standard HTTP URLs will not work.
https://ldap.example.com:9830/
3.1.2. Starting and Stopping Servers
On the main Admin Express page, there are buttons to turn servers off and on.

IMPORTANT
If either the Admin Server or the Configuration Directory Server is turned off through the
Admin Express page, then it must be restarted through the command line, not through
