Directory tests

To validate current directory settings for RILOE II:

1.Click Test Settings on the Directory Settings page. The Directory Tests page appears.

2.Enter the distinguished name and password of a directory administrator. A good choice would be the same credentials used when creating RILOE II objects in the directory. These credentials are not stored by RILOE II. They are used to verify the RILOE II object and user search contexts.

3.Click Test Directory Settings.

4.Enter a test user name and password. Typically, the test account is intended to access the RILOE II being tested. It can be the same account as the directory administrator. However, the tests cannot verify user authentication with a superuser account. These credentials are not stored by RILOE II.

5.Click Start Test. Several tests begin in the background, starting with a network ping of the directory user through establishing an SSL connection to the server and evaluating user privileges as they would be evaluated during a normal login.

While the tests are running, the page periodically refreshes. At any time during test execution you can stop the tests or manually refresh the page.

The test results page displays a series of simple tests designed to validate the current directory settings. A test log is included documenting test results and any errors detected. After directory settings are configured correctly, you do not need to rerun these tests. Consult the help link on the page for test details and actions in the event of trouble.
