Configuring The Active Directory Product Name
To configure the Active Directory product name:
1. Locate the omsaoem.ini file in the installation directory.
2. Edit the file to add the line adproductname=text, where text is the name of the product object that you created in
Active Directory. For example, the omsaoem.ini file contains the following syntax if the Active Directory product name is
configured to omsaApp.
productname=Server Administrator
startmenu=Dell OpenManage Applications
autdbid=omsa
accessmask=3
adsupport=true
adproductname=omsaApp
3. Restart the Systems Management Server Administrator (DSM SA) Connection Service after saving the
omsaoem.ini file.
Extending The Active Directory Schema
The schema extensions for RAC and Server Administrator are available. Extend the schema for software or hardware that you
are using. Apply each extension individually to receive the benefit of its software-specific settings. Extending the Active
Directory schema adds schema classes and attributes, example privileges and association objects, and a organizational unit to
the schema.
NOTE:
Before you extend the schema, you must have Schema Admin privileges on the Schema Master Flexible Single
Master Operation (FSMO) Role Owner of the domain forest.
Extend the schema using two different methods. Use the Schema Extender utility, or use the Lightweight Directory Interchange
Format (LDIF) script file.
NOTE: The organizational unit is not added if you use the LDIF script file.
The LDIF script files and the Schema Extender utility are located in the following directories on the Dell EMC OpenManage
Systems Management Tools and Documentation software:
<DVD drive>:\ManagementStation\support\OMActiveDirectory_Tools\<installation type>\LDIF
Files
<DVD drive>:\ManagementStation\support\OMActiveDirect ory_ Tools\<installation type>
