Your Active Directory contains configuration profiles downloaded
by each client system and name service data accessed by each client
system. As your environment grows, you may need to add additional
domain controllers to your environment. Follow these steps: Use the dcpromo.exe tool to install and configure a new Active Directory domain
controller. For more information, refer to the respective literature
on Active Directory or check Microsoft’s library at http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp Install the Server for NIS to
view and edit the POSIX attributes of your user objects. Alternatively,
the ADSI edit snap-in can be used to modify POSIX attributes. This
only needs to be done if POSIX attributes are being maintained on
this domain controller. Create a new profile that specifies
the new domain controller. The new profile can be identical to another
profile, except the preferredServerList attribute specifies a new domain controller. Refer to “Creating a New Profile”. Refer to Appendix B “LDAP-UX Client Services
Object Classes” for a description of the preferredServerList attribute. On all clients that are to use
the new controller, edit the start-up file, /etc/opt/ldapux/ldapux_client.conf, to refer to the new domain controller and the new profile.
Modify the PROFILE_ENTRY_DN line as described under“Changing Which Profile
a Client is Using”. Modify the LDAP_HOSTPORT line to specify the domain controller server. Download the new profile from
the new domain controller as described in “Downloading the Profile
Periodically”.
