Hello again,
I am wondering, wether it is possible, to replace/overwrite an item
without changing its index number, or wether for this case I do have to
manually edit the schema.ldif (and thereby ruin the CRC)?
Assuming I have this example:
olcObjectClasses: {4}( 1.1.1 NAME 'myoc' DESC 'My objectclass' SUP top
ABSTRACT MAY ( myAttribute ) )
olcObjectClasses: {5}( 1.1.2 NAME 'myotheroc' DESC 'My other
objectclass' SUP myoc STRUCTURAL MUST ( myotherAttribute ) )
So the lower one(5) depends upon the preceeding one (4).
Now I would like to modify the first (4) objectclass definition to f.e.
MUST (myAttribute).
Using ldapmodify the classical way:
delete: olcObjectClasses
olcObjectClasses: (1.1.1....old)
-
add: olcObjectClasses
olcObjectClasses: (1.1.1....new)
does of course not work, as it will get a new, higher index and
therefore any subsequential startup of openldap will fail, as our
current index 5 has a reference to an objectclass that now however comes
later and has an index of f.e. 17.
However, I have not been able to figure out, how to use "replace:
olcObjectClasses" to only replace a single instance and keep it in place.
Therefore I am wondering, is there a way to use ldapmodify, or any other
tool, to modify entries without changing the index, that in turn of
course would break ldif?
Thanks
Ede
