iPlanet Directory Services and vlvindex ?
2007-12-24 19:59:00
I'm playing with LDAP this week. I've installed iPlanet Directory
Services version 4.13.
I've bought the Blueprints called "SOLARIS and LDAP Naming Services,
Deploying LDAP in the Enterprise".
Now, the situation:
I've followed the 12 steps to configure iDS for Native LDAP for Solaris
8. At one point, well, step 12, I need to create the index databases:
root at sxi-s58# cd /opt/iPlanet/slapd-sxi-s58/
/opt/iPlanet/slapd-sxi-s58
root at sxi-s58# ./vlvindex getpwent
[23/May/2001:20:34:29 -0400] - WARNING---no /var/opt/iPlanet/ids/db
permission to file write
OKroot at sxi-s58#
The reason, after multiple run at trussing the process, it's down to
having a directory called "lost+found" in the database log directory.
(I've followed the performance section, they recommend to put these on a
different FS, so there is a lost+found !)
Now, if I remove lost+found:
root at sxi-s58# rmdir /var/opt/iPlanet/ids/db/lost+found/
root at sxi-s58# ./vlvindex getpwent
OKroot at sxi-s58#
It's working !@^&!#@$&#
Anyone has some info on this ? We need to put the databases and the
index in a different FS, so the lost+found dir will be there !!!
Thank's.
