To Configure the Retro Change Log to Record Attributes of a Deleted Entry

This procedure describes how to configure the retro change log to record specified attributes of an entry when that entry is deleted.

You cannot use DSCC to perform this task. Use the command line, as described in this procedure.

1. Specify the attributes that must be recorded:

   $ dsconf set-server-prop -h host -p port retro-cl-deleted-entry-attr: \ attribute1 attribute2

   For example, to set the retro change log to record the UID attributes of deleted entries, use this command:

   $ dsconf set-server-prop -h host -p port retro-cl-deleted-entry-attr:uid

   To add an attribute to an existing list of specified attributes, use this command:

   $ dsconf set-server-prop -h host -p port retro-cl-deleted-entry-attr+:attribute

2. Restart the server.
