12.0.1.0 installation with LDAP v3 compliant OpenDJ

Hi All,

As you are aware that in 12.0.1.0, Windchill DS is removed from the technology stack and only user information is stored in Active Directory or LDAP v3 compliant LDAP Server

PTC didn't give any preparation document for LDAP v3 compliant LDAP Server for Windchill

 

If any one of you tried, Please let me know your experience

 

I would like to know whether you have to do any configuration once you install the LDAP server before you install windchill

 

Best Regards

Prajeesh Kumar

    Hi,

    I resolved the issue and I am able to install windchill sandbox with OpenDJ as LDAP Server for user management. You have to install OpenDJ and create atleast one organization and organization unit and then specify that while doing the installation

    I actually missed this, probably because during the original 12.0.0.0 installation I had followed the recommendation in CS326880 to use the 11.2.1.0 version.  Updating later on to 12.0.1.0 didn't complain about continuing to use this version...

    For others who also missed this, here's a TS article talking about what to do going forward:  CS335692

      Hi,

      I am installing a new instance of 12.0.1.0 for sanbox  purpose

      I have installed the local LDAP v3 complaint server OPENDJ. While Running the PSI, we need to give the the Distingushed Base Name for users .

       

      I have created a base DN o=ptc and created an organization unit ou=people

      I gave the Distinushed base Name for users value as ou=people,o=ptc

      I need to confirm whether this value is correct for installation
