RE: [389-users] Is there Linked Attributes configuration and usage documentation available?

OK, I see some helpful errors in the logs here:

 

linkedattrs-plugin - linked_attrs_parse_config_entry: The linkType config setting is required for linked attribute pair "cn=manager link,cn=linked attributes,cn=plugins,cn=config".

 

[02/Dec/2009:06:19:24 -0700] linkedattrs-plugin - linked_attrs_parse_config_entry: Invalid config entry [cn=manager link,cn=linked attributes,cn=plugins,cn=config] skipped

 

So… I am assuming that there is a configuration entry that I need called “linkType”, which isn’t listed in the link per se, although there is a reference to it in passing.  Can someone help me with the expected type of value, ie is this an attribute type, etc?  What do I need here? 

 

The following was added to my dse.ldif:

 

dn: cn=Manager Link, cn=Linked Attributes,cn=plugins,cn=config

objectClass: extensibleObject

objectClass: top

cn: Manager Link

linkattribute: directReport

managedattribute: linkmanager

 

Both the linkattribute “directReport” and managedattribute “linkmanager” are custom attributes added as “MAY” to a custom “employee” objectclass, to which 3 test users have as an attribute value.  I didn’t want to conflict with any existing attributes, and I noticed that the directreport attribute did not exist.

 

Any help is appreciated.

 

Thanks,

SB

Subject: [389-users] Is there Linked Attributes configuration and usage documentation available?

 

Hello All,

 

I have 389 up and running, and had some questions on Linked Attributes.  I found this http://directory.fedoraproject.org/wiki/Linked_Attributes_Design but that is the extent of the documentation that I have found.  Does anyone know of any additional documentation that you can point me to? 

 

I am unclear on exactly how to configure Linked Attributes properly, and how to use them.  Specifically, which ldif file would I need to modify to create a linked attribute?  Would that be dse.ldif, or one of the ldif’s in the schema sub-folder (/etc/dirsrv/slapd-<instance_name>/schema)?  What else would I need to know to configure a linked attribute?  What do I need to know about it’s usage?

 

Once I have the details I can post some documentation back to the community- there is nothing in the RedHat Directory Server on this plugin as of yet that I have seen.  I don’t think that this can be done through the GUI at this time…

 

Thanks in advance for the community’s help.

 

SB
