To apply a server profile to a fresh, unconfigured server, use the setup subcommand, which replaces the normal setup tool when using a server profile. Run manage-profile setup to complete the following tasks:
- Copies the pre-setup files to the server root
- Runs the setup tool
- Copies the post-setup files to the server root
- Installs any server SDK extensions
- Runs any dsconfig batch files
- Imports any LDIF files
- Starts the server
While manage-profile setup is running, a copy of the profile is created in a temporary directory that can be specified by using the --tempProfileDirectory argument. The command leaves the server in a complete and running state when finished, unless the --doNotStart argument is specified.
