Short Format

set-attribute -u uid -f password-filename [-p portalName] --component component-name [--producer producer-id] [--registrationhandle handle] -a attribute-name [-d dn] [-A add-values] [-E remove-values] [--inherit] set_values [--debug] [-O output-filename]

Options

The following options are required:

[--adminuser | -u] uid

Specifies the administrator's distinguished name (dn) or the user identification name (uid).

[--passwordfile | -f] password-filename

Specifies the administrator's password in the password file.

[--component | -m] component-name

Specifies the component name. Valid names are: producer, consumer, desktop, mobilemail, mobilecalendar, mobileaddressbook, gateway, netlet, proxylet, netfile, and subscriptions.

[--attribute-name | -a] attribute-name

Specifies the attribute name. For list of the attribute names for a component, please run the command psadmin list-attributes --component component-name.

The following is an operand:

set_values

A list of values to be set into the attribute. This can be specified as '"v1" "v2"'. If the set_values operand is used, the --inherit, --add, and --remove options are not allowed. The set_values operand is used at the end of the command.

The following options are optional:

[--portal | -p] portal-name

Specifies the portal name. The --portal option is required when a portal-centric component attribute is being accessed. The following components are portal-centric and you must provide the --portal option for list, get, and set operations while using the following components: desktop, producer, consumer, and subscriptions. For all other components, do not use the -portal option since they are common to all portals.

[--producer] producer-ID

Specifies the producer id. This is the ID or the name of a producer when the component is producer and it is the ID of a configured producer when the component is consumer. This option is valid only if the component is producer or consumer.

[--registrationhandle] handle

Specifies the registration handle of a producer's consumer registration. The attribute of a producer's consumer registration is modified (not the attribute of a producer itself). This option is valid only if the component is producer.

[--dn | -d]

Specifies the dn of the node. This must be an organization DN when the component is consumer.

[--inherit]

Specifies that the value should be inherited from parent. This option can only be used for users. This option does not use any values. If the --inherit option is used, the --add option, the --remove option, and the set_values operand are not allowed. The value is inherited from the parent. The --inherit option is used only for user attribute.

[--gateway-profile] gateway-profile-name

Specifies the gateway profile name. This is used only when the component is gateway.

[--add | -A] add-values

Specifies a list of values to add like '”value1“ “value2”'. If the add option is specified, the --inherit option and the set_values operand are not allowed. The remove option is allowed, but if it is not specified, the set is added to existing values. If the removed option is specified, the result is that some values will be added and some values will be removed. The options can be done in any order, but the operations are such that remove done after add.

[--remove | -E] remove-values

Specifies a list of values to remove like '”value1“ “value2”'. If the --remove option is specified, the --inherit option and the set_values operand are not allowed. The --add option is allowed, but if it is not specified, the set is removed from existing values. If the --add option is specified, some values are added and some values are removed. The options can be done in any order, but the operations are such that remove done after add.

[--debug]

Specifies if debug mode is turned on.

[--output | -O] output-filename

Specifies if the output mode is used.

Examples

Example for adding attributes:

psadmin set-attribute -u amadmin -f password-file --component desktop -p myPortal --attribute-name AuthorizedAuthlessUserIds --add '"val1" "val2" "val3"'

3 values, val1, val2 and val3 will be added to the existing list

Example for removing attributes:

psadmin set-attribute -u amadmin -f password-file --component desktop -p myPortal --attribute-name AuthorizedAuthlessUserIds --remove '"val1" "val2" "val3"'

The 3 values, val1, val2 and val3 will be removed from the existing list.

Example for using the set_values operand:

psadmin set-attribute -u amadmin -f password-file --component desktop -p myPortal --attribute-name AuthorizedAuthlessUserIds '"a1" "a2" "a3"'

The existing list will be replaced by 3 values, a1, a2 and a3.
