Creating a New Database Link

The basic configuration of your database link involves providing the following
information:
• Suffix information. You create a suffix in your directory tree that is managed
by the database link, not a regular database. This suffix corresponds to the
suffix on the remote server that contains the data.
• Bind credentials. When the database link binds to a remote server, it
impersonates a user. You need to specify the DN and the credentials you want
each database link to use to bind with remote servers.
• LDAP URL. You provide the LDAP URL of the remote server to which the
database link connects.
• List of failover servers. You can provide a list of alternative servers for the
database link to contact in the event of a failure. This configuration item is
optional.
The following sections describe creating a new database link from the Directory
Server Console as well as the command-line.
