Re: schema extension via ldif at install time

As I understand it, replicated schema is stored in the 99user.ldif file on each consumer. Does anyone know if schema defined in 60x.ldif through 98x.ldif files on the master is replicated to consumers? Or will masters only replicate the schema that is present in their local 99user.ldif file?

In other words, will schema changes made to "60custom.ldif" on the master be replicated to each consumer's 99user.ldif file, or will each consumer's /<serverroot>/config/schema directory need to get an updated copy of 60custom.ldif ?

Don't put schema into 99user.ldif, it's not maintainable.

This would seem to be contrary to the documentation on redhat's site. I'm certainly not meaning to say you're wrong - quite the contrary - I'm pointing out to whomever it may concern that the docs need polishing :)

Keep in mind that you can edit schema using the console if the schema you are editing is in 99user.ldif. If you put it in any other file, the console will see it as read-only.

As a "good" practice, I'd say if you are testing or have schema that changes often (for whatever reason), use 99user.ldif, but once you have a stable schema, put it in a separate file for maintainability. If you are rolling out multiple apps with custom schema in each, it would probably be userful to put separate apps customizations in separate files (i.e. 98mail.ldif, 98cal.ldif, etc). Just makes it easier to keep things straight.
