A configuration repository is a place where organizational hierarchy information is stored, along with profile and assignment data for each element.
Click the New button in the Configuration Repositories table
The New Configuration Repository Wizard opens. The wizard is used to create a configuration repository for use with the Desktop Manager.
In the Repository Name field, type a name for the new configuration repository, and then click Next.
Select the repository type from the Repository Type list.
The wizard can be used to configure three types of repositories:
LDAP: The hierarchy is taken from LDAP, and all data is stored in LDAP.
File-Based: The hierarchy is taken from a file, and all data is stored in directories and files.
Hybrid: The hierarchy is taken from LDAP, but all data is stored in directories and files.
Click the Next button.
Enter the details of the LDAP server that you want to configure for this repository.
The Hostname and Port on which the server runs are required. You can also choose whether or not to connect to this server using SSL.
Further steps are determined by the choices made in the preceding steps. Follow the instructions provided by the wizard.
