Installation Overview
You must have an Administration Server in each server root directory.
Administration Server can use a local configuration directory or refer to an existing
configuration directory installed elsewhere. You must install the Certificate
Management System internal database directory locally.
The initial installation script installs Netscape Console and the binaries for the
servers, and it creates and starts instances of Administration Server and Directory
Server. After running the initial script, you use the Installation Wizard to create
and configure instances of Certificate Management System. The wizard helps you
through the configuration process of choosing subsystems and creating the
necessary keys and certificates.

Installation Stages

Installing Certificate Management System in a single server root directory involves
four stages:
Stage 1: Run the installation script (
install Administration Server and Directory Server as necessary and perform
the initial phase of CMS installation. These procedures are described in "Stage
1. Running the Installation Script" on page 215.
Stage 2: Run the Installation Wizard to set up the initial configuration of the
CMS instance. In this stage you specify which subsystems are to be part of this
instance and generate the SSL client and server certificates for each subsystem.
These procedures are described in "Stage 2. Running the Installation Wizard"
on page 221.
Stage 3: Use Netscape Console to further configure the new Certificate
Management System instance, as needed. See "Stage 4. Further Configuration
Options" on page 277.
Stage 4 (optional): Use Netscape Console to create additional instances of the
Certificate Management System in the same server root directory, and use the
Installation Wizard to configure them. For a summary, see "Stage 5. Creating
Additional Instances or CA Clones" on page 278.
