Chapter 3. Configuring Directory Databases

To set cascading chaining defaults for all database links in Directory Server, do the following:

1.In the Directory Server Console, select the Configuration tab.

2.Expand the Data folder in the left pane, and click Database Link Settings. Click the Default Creation Parameters tab.

3.Select the Check local ACI checkbox to enable the evaluation of local ACIs on the intermediate database links involved in cascading chaining. Selecting this checkbox may require adding the appropriate local ACIs to a database on the servers that contain intermediate database links.

4.Enter the maximum number of times a database link can point to another database link in the Maximum hops field.

By default, the maximum is 10 hops. After 10 hops, a loop is detected by the server, and an error is returned to the client application.

5.Click Save.

NOTE

Changes made to the default settings of a database link are not applied retroactively. Only the database links created after changes are made to the default settings will reflect the changes.

3.Select the Check local ACI checkbox to enable the evaluation of local ACIs on the intermediate database links involved in the cascading chain. Selecting this checkbox may require adding the appropriate local ACIs to the database link.

4.Enter the maximum number of times a database link can point to another database link in the Maximum hops field.

By default, the maximum is ten hops. After ten hops, a loop is detected by the server, and an error is returned to the client application.
