Turning Schema Checking On and Off
When schema checking is on, the Directory Server ensures that:
•
The object classes and attributes you are using are defined in the directory
schema.
•
The attributes required for an object class are contained in the entry.
•
Only attributes allowed by the object class are contained in the entry.
Schema checking is turned on by default in the Directory Server, and you should
always run the Directory Server with schema checking turned on. The only case
where you might want to turn schema checking off is to accelerate LDAP import
operations. However, there is a risk of importing entries that do not conform to the
schema. Consequently, it is impossible to search for these entries.
To turn schema checking on and off:
On the Directory Server Console, select the Configuration tab.
