Directory services preparation for Active Directory

To set up directory services for use with iLO 2 management processors:

1.

Install Active Directory. For more information, refer to Installing Active Directory in the Microsoft®

Windows® 2000 Server Resource Kit.

2.

Install the Microsoft® Admin Pack (the ADMINPAK.MSI file, which is located in the i386
subdirectory of the Windows® 2000 Server or Advance Server CD). For more information, refer to

the Microsoft® Knowledge Base Article 216999.

3.

In Windows® 2000, the safety interlock that prevents accidental writes to the schema must be
temporarily disabled. The schema extender utility can do this if the remote registry service is running

and the user has sufficient rights. This can also be done by setting

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\ServicesParameters\Schema

Update Allowed in the registry to a non-zero value (refer to the "Order of Processing When

Extending the Schema" section of Installation of Schema Extensions in the Windows® 2000 Server
Resource Kit) or by the following steps. This step is not necessary if you are using Windows® Server

2003.
