The following sections provide installation prerequisites, preparation, and a working example of Directory
Services for eDirectory.

eDirectory installation prerequisites

Directory Services for RILOE II uses LDAP over SSL to communicate with the directory servers. RILOE II
software is designed to install in an eDirectory version 8.6.1 (and above) tree. HP does not recommend
installing this product if you have eDirectory servers with a version less than eDirectory 8.6.1. Before
installing snap-ins and schema extensions for eDirectory, you should read and have available the
following technical information documents, available at Novell Support (

Installing Directory Services for RILOE II requires extending the eDirectory schema. Extending the schema
must be completed by an Administrator.
