Creating a Domain

Domains are created using the create-domain command. The following example command creates a domain named mydomain. The administration server listens on port 5000 and the administrative user name is admin. The command prompts for the administrative and master passwords.

$ asadmin create-domain --adminport 5000 --adminuser admin mydomain

To start the Admin Console for mydomain domain, in a browser, enter the following URL:

http://hostname:5000

In Enterprise Server 9.1, every domain has a profile associated with it. For information on profiles, see“Usage Profiles” on page 27. You can choose the profile of a domain only during creation. Use the --profile option with the create-domain command to specify a profile for the domain. If you do not use the --profile option to explicitly specify a profile, the default profile is associated with the domain. TheAS_ADMIN_PROFILE variable in the asadminenv.conf file defines the default profile.
