Check the status of the directory server
Basic status information is found in the iSeries Navigator. More advanced
and complete status information is found using the Web administration tool.
iSeries Navigator displays the status of the directory server in the Status column in the right frame.
To check the status of the directory server in iSeries Navigator, take
these steps:
- Expand Network.
- Expand Servers.
- Click TCP/IP. iSeries Navigator displays
the status of all TCP/IP servers, including the directory server, in the Status column. To update the status of
the servers, click the View menu
and select Refresh.
- To view more information about the status of the directory server, right-click IBM Directory Server and select Status. This will show you the number of active connections, as well
as other information such as past and current activity levels.
Besides
providing additional information, viewing status through this option can save
time. You can refresh the status of the directory server without taking the
additional time that is required to check the status of the other TCP/IP servers.
To view the status of the directory server using the Web administration
tool, take these steps:
- Expand the Server administration category
in the navigation area.
Note:
To change server configuration settings
using the tasks in the Server administration category of the Web Administration
tool, you must authenticate to the server as an i5/OS user profile that has
*ALLOBJ and IOSYSCFG special authorities. This can be done by authenticating
as a projected user with the password for that profile. To bind as a projected
user from the Web administration tool, enter a username of the form os400-profile=MYUSERNAME,cn=accounts,os400-sys=MYSYSTEM.COM, where MYUSERNAME
and the MYSYSTEM.COM strings are replaced with your user profile name and
the configured system projection suffix, respectively.
- Click View server status.
- On the View server status panel, select
the various tabs to view status information.
