Fedora directory users - Mar 2009 - quickie on basics - another instance of directory server

dear all,
I''m(an entrant) not sure I got the hang of setup-ds-admin.pl
my understanding is:
every box/machine hosting idm_console-manageable Directory Server 
instance need an Administration Server installed on this/the same box,
this Administration Sever can manage many Directory Server instances 
being installed on this same box, right?

if I''m right of above, what am I doing wrong while setup-ds-admin.pl is
having second run to set up SERV_2 for which,
from first setup-ds-admin - SERV_1 would be Configuration Directory Server
simple set-up, right, I let installation know about ldap:// to SERV_1, etc..
then it asks of Administration Server port - standard 9830, right

next I run idm console there is only newly created SERV_2 and SERV_1 - gone?

p.s it''s f10, do you have problems creating new instances directly from
idm console too?

a little light someone can shed on it for me?
cheers

There are some bugs in the additional instance creation process.  If you 
need to create additional instances, use setup-ds.pl to create them, 
then use register-ds-admin.pl to register them with the
console.
