Each section [] refers to an instance on your local system. For example
I have an instance named localhost. It can be found on the FS under
/etc/disrv/slapd-locahost, but I could have named the instance anything,
like: slapd-MARK (/etc/dirsrv/slapd-MARK). In the second case I would
use the CLI as follows:
# dsidm MARK user list (You can optionally use the "slapd-" prefix
for clarity: dsidm slapd-MARK user list)
So in my .dsrc file I would need a section like:
[MARK]
uri: ldapi://%%2fvar%%2frun%%2fslapd-MARK.socket
...
So each section describes a local instance. I'm not sure you can create
different profiles like what you are doing below. William knows the
.dsrc stuff better than I do though so he might have additional comments
when he gets online.
Note - I'm not sure what version you are, but in older versions the
section name must match how to type it on the CLI. So if .dsrc
contains [MARK], then you MUST use: "dsidm MARK ...". If you defined
the section name as [slapd-MARK] in .dsrc, then you must use: "dsidm
slapd-MARK ...". This has been fixed in newer versions where you can
interchange the "slapd-" anyway you want and it will still find the
correct section in .dsrc.

Also, W. Brown gave me this hint:
"There can be many sections in the dsrc though, and they can be named differently to your instances if you want. I wrote most of that code so I can explain further if you want. But you could do something like:
[localhost]
uri = ldapi://%%2fvar%%2frun%%2fslapd-localhost.socket
[localhost-ldaps]
uri =
ldaps://localhost
"
I have done this (see other entries here) - but after reading this *many, many times* I do have a question. The suggestion (at least to me) suggests that I'd need multiple instances ("named differently to your instances if you want") - so that means I'd have more than one LDAP instance - one that I'd administer locally ([localhost] via ldapi) and one instance ([localhost-ldaps]) that I'd administer via ldaps. How would I ensure both instances used the same database? I don't want to have to create more work for myself.
Can anyone offer any clarification of how I might make this configuration work with least headache?
Thanks in advance
