Creating and Maintaining Database Links
NOTE
Once you have modified the component you allow to chain, you must restart the
server in order for the modification to take effect.
The following sections describe how to specify components you want to allow to
chain using the Console and from the command-line.
Chaining Component Operations Using the Console
In the Directory Server Console, select the Configuration tab.
1.
Expand Data in the left pane, and click Database Link Settings.
2.
Select the Settings tab in the right window. To add a component to the
3.
"Components allowed to chain" list, click Add.
The "Select Components to Add" dialog box displays. Select a component
from the list, and click OK.
To delete a component from the list, select it, and click Delete.
4.
After making modifications to the components list, a red dot appears on the
tab, and the field name turns gray.
Click Save to save your changes.
5.
Restart the server in order for the change to take effect.
6.
After allowing the component to chain, you must create an ACI in the suffix on
the remote server to which the operation will be chained. For example, you would
create the following ACI for the Referential Integrity Plug-in:
106
Red Hat Directory Server Administrator's Guide • May 2005
You cannot chain the following components:
•
Roles plug-in
•
Password policy component
•
Replication plug-ins
When enabling the Referential Integrity Plug-in on servers issuing
chaining requests, be sure to analyze your performance resource
and time needs as well as your integrity needs. Integrity checks can
be time-consuming and draining on memory/CPU.
For further information on the limitations surrounding ACIs and
chaining, see "ACI Limitations," on page 204.
