Before migrating a replicated server topology, review Chapter 7, Migrating a Replicated Topology, in Oracle Fusion Middleware Upgrade and Migration Guide for Oracle Directory Server Enterprise Edition.
When you create a Directory Server instance in a replicated topology, password policy is configured initially backwards-compatible to assist with migrating the topology. After upgrading, you change the compatibility mode to enable richer password policy configuration. Directory Server manages the conversion. For more information, see Migrating a Deployment to Directory Server 11g Release 1 (11.1.1) in Oracle Fusion Middleware Administration Guide for Oracle Directory Server Enterprise Edition. In a future release, the backwards-compatible password policy configuration might be removed.
When you create a Directory Server instance, support for the modify DN operation is disabled. After upgrading all the server instances in your replication topology, the modify DN operation can be replicated properly. At that point, you can enable support for the modify DN operation on each server instances. Use the dsconf set-server-prop moddn-enabled:on command for this purpose.
This feature is provided for version 5.2 compatibility.
The db-path suffix property (dsconf set-suffix-prop suffix-name db-path:/new/directory and dsconf create-suffix --db-path) is deprecated and might be removed in a future release. Use the db-path server property to store all the suffixes in a different directory than the instance directory.
Work is currently being done to resolve issues with the stability of the dsadm repack subcommand under stress. As a safety measure, the dsadm repack subcommand has been disabled temporarily for the 11g Release 1 (11.1.1) release.
If you run the dsadm repack subcommand, the following message is displayed:
:[19/Oct/2009:11:51:50 +0200] - WARNING<99999> - conn=-1 op=-1 msgId=-1 - The repack function is temporarily disabled for the 7.0 release. |
The Oracle Fusion Middleware Developer’s Guide for Oracle Directory Server Enterprise Edition 11g Release 1 (11.1.1) describes plug-in API changes. Interfaces identified there as deprecated might be removed in a future release.
This guide is no longer provided as part of the documentation set. All sample code files have also been removed from the product distribution. The Developer's Guide and the sample code files are bundled in an example.zip file that is available at http://www.oracle.com/technology/sample_code/products/oid/index.html.
Oracle Directory Server Enterprise Edition 11g Release 1 (11.1.1) includes an update to Identity Synchronization for Windows. Identity Synchronization for Windows 6.0 SP1 is bundled with Oracle Directory Server Enterprise Edition.
Before upgrading Identity Synchronization for Windows, read Chapter 10, Migrating Identity Synchronization for Windows, in Oracle Fusion Middleware Upgrade and Migration Guide for Oracle Directory Server Enterprise Edition.
Directory Server Enterprise Edition 11g Release 1 (11.1.1) does not provide any changes to Directory Server Resource Kit.
The LDAP utility manual pages on Sun Solaris systems do not document the version of the LDAP utilities ldapsearch, ldapmodify, ldapdelete, and ldapadd that are delivered with Directory Server Enterprise Edition. The commands might no longer be delivered separately on Solaris systems, but instead integrated with the commands that are provided by the operating system in a future version. See Oracle Fusion Middleware Man Page Reference for Oracle Directory Server Enterprise Edition for the manual pages for the LDAP client tools.
