Configuring Active Directory Using CLI On Systems Running Server Administrator

You can use the omconfig preferences dirservice command to configure the Active Directory service. The productoem.ini file is modified to reflect these changes. If the adproductname is not present in the productoem.ini file, a default name is assigned.

The default value is system name-software-product name, where system name is the name of the system
running Server Administrator, and softwareproduct name refers to the name of the software product defined in omprv32.ini (that is, computerName-omsa).
