Multi-Instance Install Layout

This is a draft

This is draft documentation for the new installers and daemon work set for a future release. Once this is all set and agreed upon we can move this to the BUG.

Installation

Installers

Apache Directory Server provides the following installers:

Linux

Windows

MacOSX

RPM (Fedora, Redhat, SUSE, Mandriva)
DEB (Debian, Ubuntu, Linsipre, Xandros)

Native GUI
Text based command line

Java based GUI

Directory Structure

  • Supports multiple configuration instances that are seperate from the install image
  • Linux/Unix directory structure follows current install practices on these platforms
  • Java JVM parameters are configured seperately for each instance

The new installers for Linux/Unix support a new directory structure that follows best practices on these platforms.

Configuration

Daemon

All installers on every platform now deploy the Tanuki Software Wrapper on every platform. The Tanuki Wrapper is an MIT licensed open source Java daemon.
