You cannot change some attributes of an LDAP client configuration by using the mod subcommand. For example, you cannot change the profileName and profileTTL attributes. To change these attributes, create a new profile by using the ldapclient init command, as described in Using Profiles to Initialize a Client. Or, run the ldapclient manual command, as described in Initializing a Client Manually.
