Last updated on MAY 09, 2023

Applies to:

Oracle Unified Directory - Version 12.2.1.3.0 and later
Information in this document applies to any platform.

Goal

This article will show how to Start / Stop OUD Server  -
- Standalone Instances
- OR -
- Instances Installed within a WLS Domain

To determine if the OUD instance is installed within a domain, check if the INSTANCE_ROOT is under -
ORACLE_HOME/user_projects/domains/<DOMAIN_NAME>/system_components/OUD/<INSTANCE_NAME>

If unsure where the OUD instance resides and the OUD instance is running, (on Unix) run -

ps -ef | grep config.ldif

Example for an OUD 12c Standalone instance -

$ ps -ef | grep config.ldif
USER  PID     1 10 19:22 pts/3    00:00:31 /bin/java -Xms11981m -Xmx11981m -d64 -XX:+UseCompressedOops -server -Xmn1g -XX:MaxTenuringThreshold=1 -XX:+UseConcMarkSweepGC -XX:CMSInitiatingOccupancyFraction=60 -Dorg.opends.server.scriptName=start-ds org.opends.server.core.DirectoryServer --configClass org.opends.server.extensions.ConfigFileHandler --configFile <OUD_INSTANCE_ROOT>/OUD/config/config.ldif --timeout 0

where the value after --configFile is the path to the OUD Instance's config file -
<OUD_INSTANCE_ROOT>/config/config.ldif

and the 12c Standalone or OUD 11g instance can be located anywhere based on the path specified during install.

If the instance is not running, check where the instance is located (on Unix) by running -

find / -name config.ldif 2>/dev/null
