The Distribution Workflow Element is used to partition a DIT into subsets of entries.
The Distribution Workflow Element component inherits from the Workflow Element

Basic Properties: | Advanced Properties: |
---|---|
↓ base-dn | ↓ force-modify-dn |
↓ enabled | ↓ java-class |
↓ global-index-catalog |
Description | Identifies the portion of the DIT targeted by the distribution. The base DN of the subtree to partition is specified by this base-dn attribute. |
---|---|
Default Value | None |
Allowed Values | A valid DN. |
Multi-valued | No |
Required | Yes |
Admin Action Required | None |
Advanced Property | No |
Read-only | Yes |
Description | Indicates whether the Workflow Element is enabled for use in the server. If a Workflow Element is not enabled, then its contents are not accessible when processing operations. |
---|---|
Default Value | None |
Allowed Values | true false |
Multi-valued | No |
Required | Yes |

Advanced Property | No |

Description | The global index used by the distribution workflow element. |
---|---|
Default Value | None |
Allowed Values | The DN of any Extension. The referenced global index catalog must be enabled. |
Multi-valued | No |

Advanced Property | No |

Description | This flag determines if a modify DN is always accepted or not. Considering the following distribution: partition1=[1..1000[ and partition2=[1000..2000[. And considering the DIT where user entries are stored in [ou=people,dc=example,dc=com]. When a modify DN is targeting the entry uid=1,ou=people,dc=example,dc=com: modifying the RDN uid=1 to uid=2 is always accepted because the new entry stays in partition1. Modifying the RDN uid=1 to uid=1200 is not accepted because the new entry would need to be moved to the partition2, and moving entries from one partition to another is not supported. If the flag forceModifyDN is set to true then the request is accepted anyway but the new entry stays in partition1. Note that when the forceModifyDN flag is set to true then the distribution should be configured with a global index catalog because when entries are "moved" the distribution algorithm might not be able to locate them properly. |
