HP UX Identity Security Software manual Directory Server Ldif configuration files

This directory also contains other server instance-specific configuration files.

Schema configuration is also stored in LDIF format. The master schema directory is /etc/opt/ dirsrv/schema, and the instance-specific schema directory is /etc/opt/dirsrv/slapd-instance_name/schema.

The following table lists all the configuration files that are supplied with the Directory Server, including those for the schema of other compatible servers. Each file is preceded by a number which indicates the order in which they should be loaded (in ascending numerical, then alphabetical order).

Table 2-1 Directory Server LDIF configuration files

Configuration file name	Purpose
dse.ldif	Contains front-end Directory Specific Entries created by the directory at server
	startup. These include the Root DSE ("") and the contents of cn=config and
	cn=monitor (acis only).
00core.ldif	Contains only those schema definitions necessary for starting the server with the
	bare minimum feature set (no user schema, no schema for any non-core features).
	The rest of the schema used by users, features, and applications is found in
	01common.ldif and the other schema files. Do not modify this file.
01common.ldif	Contains LDAPv3 standard operational schema, such as subschemaSubentry,
	LDAPv3 standard user and organization schema defined in RFC 2256 (based on
	X.520/X.521), inetOrgPerson and other widely-used attributes, and the operational
	attributes used by Directory Server configuration. Modifying this file causes
	interoperability problems. User-defined attributes should be added through the
	Directory Server Console.
05rfc2247.ldif	Schema from RFC 2247 and related pilot schema, from "Using Domains in
	LDAP/X500 Distinguished Names."
05rfc2927.ldif	Schema from RFC 2927, "MIME Directory Profile for LDAP Schema." Contains the
	ldapSchemas operational attribute required for the attribute to show up in the
	subschema subentry.
10presence.ldif	Legacy. Schema for instant messaging presence (online) information; the file lists
	the default object classes with the allowed attributes that must be added to a user's
	entry in order for instant-messaging presence information to be available for that
	user.
10rfc2307.ldif	Schema from RFC 2307, "An Approach for Using LDAP as a Network Information
	Service." This may be superseded by 10rfc2307bis, the new version of rfc2307,
	when that schema becomes available.
20subscriber.ldif	Contains new schema elements and the Nortel subscriber interoperability
	specification. Also contains the adminRole and memberOfattributes and
	inetAdmin object class, previously stored in the 50ns-delegated-admin.ldif
	file.

25java-object.ldif

28pilot.ldif

30ns-common.ldif

50ns-admin.ldif 50ns-certificate.ldif 50ns-directory.ldif

Schema from RFC 2713, "Schema for Representing Java®Objects in an LDAP Directory."

Contains pilot directory schema from RFC 1274, which is no longer recommended for new deployments. Future RFCs which succeed RFC 1274 may deprecate some of or all 28pilot.ldif attribute types and classes.

Schema that contains objects classes and attributes common to the Directory Server Console framework.

Schema used by the Administration Server.

Schema for Dogtag Certificate System.

Contains additional configuration schema used by Directory Server 4.16 and earlier versions of the directory, which is no longer applicable to current releases of Directory Server. This schema is required for replicating between Directory Server 4.16 and current releases.
