Database Attributes - Netscape DIRECTORY SERVER 6.01 Configuration Manual

Database Attributes

In Directory Server 4.1, 4.11, 4.12, and 4.13, database parameters are stored in the
file under the
slapd.ldbm.conf
directory.
Because one instance of Directory Server 5.0 or 6.x can manage several databases,
the corresponding attributes in Directory Server 5.0 or 6.x are stored in a general
entry for all databases
or in an entry specific to a particular database, of the form
nam e ,cn=ldbm database,cn=config
Table 6-2 shows the mapping of general database configuration parameters
between Directory Server 4.x and Directory Server 5.0 or 6.x. Table 6-3 shows the
mapping of database-specific parameters between Directory Server 4.x and
Directory Server 5.0 or 6.x.
