By default,PingDirectory Server does not start automatically when the system is booted. Instead, you must manually start it with the bin/start-server command.

To configure the Directory Server to start automatically when the system boots, use the create-systemd-script utility to create a script, or create the script manually.

Create the service unit configuration file in a temporary location, where "ds" is the user running PingDirectory.
```
$ bin/create-systemd-script \
     --outputFile /tmp/ping-directory.service \
     --userName ds
```
As a root user, copy the ping-directory.service configuration file into the /etc/systemd/system directory.
To read the new configuration file, reload systemd.
```
$ systemctl daemon-reload
```
To start the PingDirectory, run the start command.
```
$ systemctl start ping-directory.service
```
To configure the PingDirectory to start automatically when the system boots, run the enable command.
```
$ systemctl enable ping-directory.service
```
Log out as root.

To perform this task on an RC system, create the startup script with bin/create-rc-script and move it to the /etc/init.d directory.

Note:
Create symlinks to this script from the /etc/rc3.d directory (starting with an “S” to ensure that the server is started) and /etc/rc0.d directory (starting with a “K” to ensure that the server is stopped).
