Sun Java System Directory Server Enterprise Edition (DSEE) includes a roles subsystem that is used to provide a specialized type of grouping mechanism. This capability is not included directly in the OpenDS directory server, because it is based on non-standard functionality, uses NetscapeTM-proprietary schema elements, and is not widely used in LDAP-enabled applications.
However, the OpenDS directory server does provide all of the functionality offered by DSEE roles, and this functionality is available for use with standard grouping mechanisms. If you have an application that was specifically written to rely on the roles functionality available in DSEE and cannot work with standard grouping mechanisms, you can configure the OpenDS directory server to simulate DSEE roles to satisfy such applications.
Note - If your application needs to create and destroy role entries (for example, an entry containing one of the subordinates of the nsRoleDefinition object class), that functionality is currently not available with the OpenDS directory server. It could be added by creating a custom group implementation (that is, a subclass of the org.opends.server.api.Group class) to provide the necessary logic, but this task is currently not planned for inclusion in the OpenDS directory server.
