Hi guys,
as I'm trying to inject some operationalAttributes in every entries, I
face an interesting problem. Obviously, the schema elements must also
have an entryUUID and entryCSN attributes. For entryUUID, there is no
problem, so far, but for entryCSN, that's not the same story... As this
AT is built based on the local instance (the SID is part of the CSN), we
can't anymore use the pre-built schema partition, as it's totally
instance agnostic.
We have options though :
- defining a special sid for such entries, 0xFFF for instance. It's very
unlikely that we will see any day such a number used for CSN.
- get rid of this pre-built partition. We load the schema dynamically on
server startup, and inject CSN at startup
- modify the entryCSN for those entries at startup, to inject the
current SID
Currently OpenLDAP treats SID 0 as unused/single-master. I don't think
there's any issue in initializing these entries with SID 0, as long as
the real SID is used when any modifications are made.
Probably an option. I didn't like the idea to use 0 for the unused SID?
but maybe I'm biased, thinking that everything on earth is like an
array, starting at 0 !!!
Thanks Howard !
