This outlines the steps necessary for restoring our LDAP server.

Data Recovery

Follow the steps in Restoring files with Duply to restore our LDAP backup from Amazon S3. Set these files aside somewhere safe.

Requisite Software Installation

rpm --install http://mirrors.xmission.com/fedora/epel/6/i386/epel-release-6-8.noarch.rpm
  • Install a pile of packages for 389.

Be aware that this will also install a bunch of dependencies, including X11 and Java, so have sufficient disk space available. Not all of these are necessary, though I've listed them all for completion's sake

yum install 389-ds-console 389-dsgw 389-adminutil 389-ds-base-libs 389-admin-console 389-ds 389-ds-base 389-admin-console-doc 389-ds-base-devel 389-console 389-admin 389-ds-console-doc 389-adminutil-devel
