Sun Java System Directory Server 5.x: Advanced Design and Deployment

Trainingsziel

Dieser Kurs vermittelt folgende Kenntnisse und Fähigkeiten:

• Design a high-availability directory architecture through redundancy



• Automate the deployment of multiple Sun Java System Directory Servers and Sun Java System Directory Proxy Servers (Directory Proxy Servers) in a directory architecture



• Design and implement a backup and recovery strategy for Sun Java System Directory Server (Directory Server)



• Create scaling and sizing recommendations for Directory Server



• Perform Directory Server benchmark tests



• Tune the Directory Server for optimal performance



• Design a monitoring and event-recovery strategy

Teilnehmerkreis

Students who can benefit from this course are consultants, architects, systems engineers, technical support personnel, and systems administrators specializing in designing and deploying LDAP directory services using Sun Java System Directory Server software.

Voraussetzungen

Um diesen Kurs erfolgreich absolvieren zu können, sollten Sie über folgende Vorkenntnisse verfügen:

• Completed the course DIR-2217: Sun Java System Directory Server 5.x: Analysis and Planning. DIR-3300 builds on the knowledge and skills obtained in DIR-2217.



• Optionally completed the course DIR-2337: Sun Java System Directory Server 5.x: Maintenance and Operations NOTE: It is possible to attend DIR-3300 after having completed DIR-2337 instead of DIR-2217.In that event, you should expect some overlap in course material between DIR-2337 and DIR-3300.



• Directory services design experience



• Background in LDAP directory services and be familiar with Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP) concepts. You should be able to design a directory architecture that includes a schema, directory tree, replication strategy, security (access control) policy, and an indexing plan.



• Experience in installing and configuring Sun Java System Directory Server (Directory Server)



• Ability to install and configure Directory Server, create new directory databases, select and create database indexes, and configure replication with minimal instructions.



• Familiarity with the Solaris Operating System (OS)



• Ability to log in as the root user and work comfortably within that environment
