LDIF Configuration Files - Location
The Directory Server configuration data is automatically output to files in LDIF
format that are located in the following directory:
serverRoot/slapd-serverID/config
Thus, if you specified a server identifier of
phonebook
, then, in a default
installation, your configuration LDIF files are all stored under:
/opt/redhat-ds/servers/slapd-phonebook/config
Schema Configuration Files - Location
Schema configuration is also stored in LDIF format, and these files are located in
the following directory:
serverRoot/slapd-serverID/config/schema
For a full list of the LDIF configuration files that are supplied with Directory
Server, see Table 2-4 at the end of this chapter.
How the Server Configuration Is Organized
The
dse.ldif
file contains all configuration information including directory
specific entries created by the directory at server startup, as well as directory
specific entries related to the database, also created by the directory at server
startup. The file includes the Root DSE (named by
""
) and the entire contents of
cn=config
. When the server generates the
dse.ldif
file, it lists the entries in
hierarchical order. It does so in the order that the entries appear in the directory
under
cn=config
.
Configuration Attributes
Within a configuration entry, each attribute is represented as an attribute name.
The value of the attribute corresponds to the attribute’s configuration.
