IBM 51 - Manual (Page 24)

Use the Windows Services panel, or issue the ibmdiradm command on
UNIX to verify if the service is running. IBM Directory Administrator
uses the port number 3538 for requests.
You can also start and stop IBM Tivoli Directory Server using the ibmdirctl
command:
v Starting the IBM Tivoli Directory Server:
ibmdirctl -D cn=root -w start
v Stopping the IBM Tivoli Directory Server:
ibmdirctl -D cn=root -w stop
3. You can also use ldapsearch command line utility to verify whether IBM Tivoli
Directory Server is running, configured properly, and responding to queries:
ldapsearch -h -p 389 -D cn=root -w
-b "" -s base objectclass=*
The ldapsearch command is also located in the following directory:
v On Windows: C:\IBM\ldap\bin
v On UNIX: /usr/ldap/bin
For more information on command line tools that can be used during the IBM
Tivoli Directory Server problem determination process, refer to “IBM Tivoli
Directory Server command line tools” on page 33.
4. Verify whether the DB2 database is successfully started. For more information,
refer to “DB2 Universal Database verification” on page 10.
5. Check the runtime IBM Tivoli Directory Server log files for errors. The logs are
stored in the following directory:
v Windows: \var\
v UNIX: /var/ldap/
where is the installation directory for the LDAP
server.
The log files include:
v ibmslapd.log
v audit.log
v db2diag.log
v ibmds_config.log
v ibmds_config_err.log
6. If required, edit the ibmslapd.conf file, which is the IBM Tivoli Directory
Server configuration file that controls the server operation. The file is located in
the following directory:
v On Windows: C:\IBM\ldap\etc
v On UNIX: /usr/ldap/etc
Note: IBM Tivoli Directory Server must be restarted for the edits to the
ibmslapd.conf file to take effect.
The ibmslapd.conf file can be used for:
v Changing the IBM Tivoli Directory Server log locations
v Adding and removing IBM Tivoli Directory Server suffixes
v Controlling server startup parameters and database connection parameters
v Changing administrator user credentials
v Modifying SSL security settings
