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 “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_HOSTPORTline to specify the domain controller server. Download the new profile from the new domain controller as described in “Downloading the Profile Periodically”.
