product information and any required critical patches.

5.1 Installation notes


Before you install OTDS Enterprise Directory Synchronization, review these additional installation
notes and verify related product or third-party product requirements.

• When patching Directory Services, it is crucial that the patch is executed from an elevated
command line as outlined in the patch installation documentation. Double-clicking the .msp or
.msi file through Windows can cause issues.

• When installing and configuring OTDS to use Java 8, the “-XX:MaxPermSize=256m” setting is no
longer necessary and will result in a warning in the Tomcat logs if it is set.
