Managing Directory Schema 20-21 To add an attribute for which no directory data exists, import an LDIF file by using ldapmodify. For example, to add a new attribute foo that has already been defined in the schema, import the following LDIF file by using ldapmodify: dn: cn=catalogs changetype: modify add: orclindexedattribute orclindexedattribute: foo Type a command similar to the following at the system prompt: ldapmodify -D cn=orcladmin -q -h host -p port -f ldif_file_name You should not use this method to index an attribute for which data exists in the directory. To index such an attribute, use the Catalog Management tool, catalog. See Creating and Dropping Indexes from Existing Attributes by Using catalog on page 15-11. Dropping an Index from an Attribute by Using ldapmodify To drop an index from an attribute by using ldapmodify, specify delete in the LDIF file. For example: dn: cn=catalogs changetype: modify delete: orclindexedattribute orclindexedattribute: foo Indexing an Attribute for Which Data Exists by Using the Catalog Management Tool Use the Catalog Management tool to index an attribute for which data already exists and to drop an index from an attribute. See Creating and Dropping Indexes from Existing Attributes by Using catalog on page 15-11. Adding a New Attribute With Attribute Aliases by Using the Command Line You add, modify, or delete attribute aliases by creating an LDIF file, then using ldapmodify with the following syntax: ldapmodify -D cn=orcladmin -q -h host -p port -f ldif_file_name See Also: The ldapmodify command-line tool reference in Oracle Fusion Middleware Reference for Oracle Identity Management See Also: The catalog command-line tool reference in Oracle Fusion Middleware Reference for Oracle Identity Management Note: Unless you are absolutely sure that the indexes were not created by the base schema that was installed with Oracle Internet Directory, be careful not to use the catalog delete=T option to remove indexes from attributes. Removing indexes from base schema attributes can adversely impact the operation of Oracle Internet Directory. Note: DN is not an attribute. You cannot define dn in the schema. Therefore you cannot create an alias for dn.
