Red Hat DIRECTORY SERVER 8.1 - USING THE ADMIN SERVER Using Instructions page 65

ModuleName is a required key that specifies the common name for the module. This name acts as a
reference to the module for Red Hat Communicator, the modutil tool, servers, or any other program
that uses the Red Hat security module database.
ModuleFile is a required key that names the PKCS #11 module file (.so) for this platform. The file
name should be a path that is relative to the JAR file location.
DefaultMechanismFlags is an optional key that specifies mechanisms for which this module is a
default provider. This key-value pair is a bitstring specified in hexadecimal (0x) format. It is constructed
as a bitwise OR of the string constants listed in
Flags". Omitting the DefaultMechanismFlags entry causes the value to to default to 0x0.

Files is a required key that lists the files that need to be installed for this module. Each entry in the
file list is a key-value pair. The key includes the path to the file that is contained in the JAR archive and
the value list contains the attributes of the file. At a minimum, you must specify either RelativePath
or AbsolutePath for each file. If desired, you can specify additional attributes. For more information,
Per-File Keys.
see
The EquivalentPlatform key specifies that the attributes of the named platform should also be
used for the current platform. Using this key saves time when more than one platform uses the same
settings.
Per-File Keys
These keys have meaning only within an entry in a Files list. At a minimum, RelativePath or
AbsolutePath must be specified. If both are specified, the relative path is tried first, and the absolute
path is used only if a relative root folder is not provided by modutil.
The RelativePath key specifies the destination path of the file, relative to a folder indicated at
installation. You can assign values for two variables in the relative path, %root% and %temp%. At
