**********************************
* SETTING UP THE SAMPLE DATABASE *
**********************************
The X.500 product has a set of configuration files and a
sample database that you can use to:
* Verify that the product has been installed correctly,
* Learn about X.500 features, and
* Use as a basis for your directory service needs.
HP's X.500 Distributed Database contains a sample database
that can be distributed on three nodes. Included are
complex attributes and multiple subtrees that can be
accessed using the default configuration (only the NSAP for
the default DSA of the DUA must be configured). Use the
sample database to become familiar with X.500. The data in
the sample database are not real.
This document describes how to configure and use the
database on one node.
SETTING UP THE SAMPLE DATABASE
==============================
To set up the sample database, do the following:
1. Configure the default DUA/DSA node
2. Create the database
3. Back up the database
CONFIGURING THE DEFAULT DUA/DSA NODE
------------------------------------
To configure the default DUA/DSA node, do the following:
1. Type "x5stop"
2. Back up or make a copy of the *.conf files
3. Copy the *.conf1 files over to the *.conf files
4. Obtain the configured NSAP and its format (hex or
character) for the network access you require. For example,
if your system uses OTS over LAN, obtain the NSAP for LAN.
5. Type "x5config"
6. Select "Default DSA for this DUA" from the menu
7. Enter the NSAP information you obtained into the
NSelector field
8. Press the "Perform Task" key
9. Use the default file name (/usr/lib/x500/conf/x5dua.conf)
in the Confirmation Form and press the "Done" key
10. Exit x5config
CREATING THE DATABASE
---------------------
To create the database,
1. Type "cd /usr/lib/x500"
2. Type "x5oper -f conf/x5dibmake.cmd"
3. When the line "Logged off" displays, press the [Return] key
4. Type "$exit"
5. Type "x5start"
If you have problems creating the database, refer to "Making
the DIB" in the "Managing HP X.500 Distributed Directory"
manual for troubleshooting information.
BACKING UP THE DATABASE
-----------------------
To back up the database,
* Type "x5backup"
Refer to "Managing the DIB" in the "Managing HP X.500
Distributed Directory" manual for more information.
SAMPLE DATABASE DESCRIPTION
===========================
The sample database contains three DSAs: DSA1 (top-level
DSA), DSA2 (second-level DSA), and DSA3 (second-level DSA).
Only one DSA at a time may be active on one system.
This document describes DSA1 only.
DSA1
----
DSA1 consists of three naming contexts:
/C=GB
/C=US
/C=JP
where /C is the country attribute type.
DSA1 DIT

The following figure is the first three levels of the DIT
for DSA1:
