The plug-in also stops any operation that adds or modifies the attribute to a value that already exists in the directory.

The UID uniqueness plug-in is disabled by default. When the plug-in is enabled, it ensures the uniqueness of the uid attribute by default. You can create new instances of the plug-in to enforce unique values on other attributes. The UID uniqueness plug-in ensures attribute value uniqueness on a single server.
