Red Hat DIRECTORY SERVER 8.1 - RELEASE NOTES Release Note page 25

Bug Number Description
If both Password Sync and the Directory
426421
Server Console are installed on the same
Windows machine, then the Directory Server
Console will load the Password Sync
nss3.dll, and will fail when it attempts to
open.
426439 When using the Console to install a CRL, if
the CRL is placed in the proper directory, /
etc/dirsrv/slapd-instance_name, the
Console returns an error that it cannot locate
the file.
427321 If a Directory Server instance is migrated from
a previous version to Directory Server 8.1,
the nsslapd-saslpath is not migrated with
the dse.ldif on the new 8.1 instance, so
that the SASL libraries cannot be loaded. This
configuration attribute is properly created in
fresh Directory Server installations.
433718 The nsslapd-maxbersize attribute sets
the maximum import size for LDAP entries;
this is one way of improving performance
and preventing denial of service attacks.
This attribute is not listed as an attribute that
requires a server restart after being changed.
However, if the nsslapd-maxbersize
attribute is increased, the old limit is still used.
This is because the attribute value is applied
when the connection table is created when the
server is first started and the value is not reset
dynamically.
470084 When updating from Berkeley DB libdb-4.4 to
libdb-4.7, there can be problems migrating the
data in the older database. This is indicated in
the error logs with messages like:
Workaround
both the Configuration and the
Import and Export tasks in the
Tasks).
However, importing or exporting
the database to the remote
machine will fail if you supply a
relative path.
When importing or exporting
databases on a remote machine,
do not use relative paths for the
LDIF. Always supply the absolute
path or use the Browse button to
select a file.
Do not install Password Sync
and the Windows version of the
Directory Server Console on the
same machine.
Put the CRL in the Administration
Server directory, /etc/
dirsrv/admin-serv, and the
Console can locate the CRL file
automatically.
Use ldapmodify to edit the
8.1 dse.ldif file and add the
nsslapd-saslpath set in the
previous version.
Restart the server after changing
the nsslapd-maxbersize
attribute.
Migrate to the newer Berkeley DB
with this procedure:
1. Shut down the older database.
