Data Store

The Data Store attributes basic datastore configuration:

Enable Datastore Notification

Specifies if the back-end datastore notification is enabled. If this value is set to 'false', then in-memory notification is enabled.

Enable Directory Proxy

The default is false. The purpose of this flag is to report to Service Management that the Directory Proxy must be used for read, write, and/or modify operations to the Directory Server. This flag also determines if ACIs or delegation privileges are to be used. This flag must be set to "true" when the Access Manager SDK (from version 7 or 7.1) is communicating with Access Manager version 6.3.

For example, in the co-existence/legacy mode this value should be "true". In the legacy DIT, the delegation policies were not supported. Only ACIs were supported, so o to ensure proper delegation check, this flag must be set to 'true' in legacy mode installation to make use of the ACIs for access control. Otherwise the delegation check will fail.

In realm mode, this value should be set to false so only the delegation policies are used for access control. In version 7.0 and later, Access Manager or OpenSSO Enterprise supports data-agnostic feature in realm mode installation. So, in addition to Directory Server, other servers may be used to store service configuration data. Additionally, this flag will report to the Service Management feature that the Directory Proxy does not need to be used for the read, write, and/or modify operations to the back-end storage. This is because some data stores, like Active Directory, may not support proxy.
