Dnamagicregen; Dnamaxvalue; Dnanextrange - Red Hat DIRECTORY SERVER 8.1 Command Reference Manual

3.7.2. dnaMagicRegen

This attribute sets a user-defined value that instructs the plug-in to assign a new value for the entry.
The magic value can be used to assign new unique numbers to existing entries or to use as a
standard setting when adding new entries.
The magic entry should be outside of the defined range for the server so that it cannot accidentally be
triggered. This attribute also does not have to a number, which can make it easier to assign.

3.7.3. dnaMaxValue

This attribute sets the maximum value that can be assigned for the range. The default is -1, which is
the same as setting the highest 64-bit integer.

3.7.4. dnaNextRange

This attribute defines the next range to use when the current range is exhausted. This value is
automatically set when range is transferred between servers, but it can also be manually set to add a
range to a server if range requests are not used.
The dnaNextRange attribute should be set explicitly only if a separate, specific range has to be
assigned to other servers. Any range set in the dnaNextRange attribute must be unique from the
available range for the other servers to avoid duplication. If there is no request from the other servers
and the server where dnaNextRange is set explicitly has reached its set dnaMaxValue, the next set
of values (part of the dnaNextRange) is allocated from this deck.
The dnaNextRange allocation is also limited by the dnaThreshold attribute that is set in the DNA
configuration. Any range allocated to another server for dnaNextRange cannot violate the threshold
for the server, even if the range is available on the deck of dnaNextRange.
