This panel collects information for the internal directory service used for storing certificate requests and certificates.
Directory Server must be installed and available so that information can be supplied in this panel. If the suffix and the database name provided in this screen are not present in the Directory Server instance, then the configuration wizard attempts to create them. It is also possible to provide an existing suffix and database. Only Red Hat Directory Server 7.1 or higher is supported.
Note
Do not share the same suffix and database name for more than one Certificate System subsystem. The same instance can be used for more than one subsystem, but different suffix and database names must be specified. Additionally, if a subsystem is being cloned, the same directory instance cannot be used for both the master and clone.
If a subsystem is cloned, the configuration wizard attempts to configure multi-master replication agreements between the master subsystem's internal database and the new clone's internal database.
