<h2>How To Configure OpenDS</h2>
<p>If you are reading this page, you have already installed the OpenDS package.
<h3>Before You Configure</h3>
A Java SE 5.0 (version 1.5.0_08) or higher runtime environment must be installed.
It is recommended that your system have at least 100MB of disk space and
256MB of free memory to run OpenDS for evaluation purposes. Note that
you can configure OpenDS in such a way that it requires substantially
less, or more, disk space. For more information, see the
<a href="https://www.opends.org/wiki/page/OpenDSSystemRequirements">OpenDS System Requirements</a>.
<h3>To Configure OpenDS</h3>
<ol>
<li>As root, type the following command:
<br>
<span style="font-family: monospace; white-space: pre;">
$BASEDIR/opends/configure --instancePath {instancePath} [ --userName {userName} [ --groupName {groupName} ] ]
</span>
</li>
<li>As {userName}, type the following command:
<br>
<span style="font-family: monospace; white-space: pre;">
$BASEDIR/opends/setup
</span>
</li>
</ol>
