Subsystem Configuration Overview

Once you install CMS on a host, you are ready to configure any subsystems that
will run on that host. You can configure multiple subsystems on a host, or multiple
instances of a single subsystem. As part of your deployment planning, you should
decide which subsystems will be needed and on which hosts those subsystems will
be deployed.
You can configure subsystems in any order, but you may want to plan the order to
provide the smoothest setup of your deployment. For example, if you are going to
be setting up a hierarchy of Certificate Managers, you should install the root CA
first. You might also want to install a Certificate Manager that will develop a
trusted relationship with other subsystems first.

Configuring Multiple CMS Instances

When CMS is installed on a host, a single instance of CMS is also created and ready
to be configured. You can created more instances of the server on the same
machine and then set them up. For instance, you might want to add a Data
Recovery Manager on the same host as a CA.
To create another instance of CMS:
Log in to Netscape Console (see "Logging Into Netscape Console" on
1.
page 245).
In the navigation tree, select the server group in which you want to create a
2.
CMS instance.
From the Object menu, choose Create Instance Of, then choose CMS from the
3.
pop-up list.
Alternatively, you can select the server group and then right-click your mouse
choosing Create Instance Of->Certificate Management System.
The Create Server Instance dialog opens.
