3.5. Database Link Plug-in Attributes (Chaining Attributes)

The database link plug-in attributes are also organized in an information tree, as shown in the following
diagram:

Figure 3.4 . Database Link Plug-in

All plug-in technology used by the database link instances is stored in the cn=chaining database
plug-in node. This section presents the additional attribute information for the three nodes marked in
bold in the cn=chaining database, cn=plugins, cn=config information tree in

Figure 3.4,

“Database Link Plug-in”

.

3.5.1. Database Link Attributes under cn=config, cn=chaining database, cn=plugins,
cn=config

This section covers global configuration attributes common to all instances are stored in the
cn=config, cn=chaining database, cn=plugins, cn=config tree node.

3.5.1.1. nsActiveChainingComponents

This attribute lists the components using chaining. A component is any functional unit in the server. The
value of this attribute overrides the value in the global configuration attribute. To disable chaining on a
particular database instance, use the value None. This attribute also allows the components used to
chain to be altered. By default, no components are allowed to chain, which explains why this attribute will
probably not appear in a list of cn=config, cn=chaining database, cn=config attributes, as
LDAP considers empty attributes to be non-existent.

Parameter

Description

Entry DN

cn=config, cn=chaining database, cn=plugins,
cn=config

Valid Values

Any valid component entry

Default Value

None

Syntax

DirectoryString

Example

nsActiveChainingComponents: cn=uid
uniqueness, cn=plugins, cn=config

3.5.1.2. nsMaxResponseDelay

This error detection, performance-related attribute specifies the maximum amount of time it can take a
remote server to respond to an LDAP operation request made by a database link before an error is
suspected. Once this delay period has been met, the database link tests the connection with the remote
server.

Parameter

Description

Entry DN

cn=config, cn=chaining database, cn=plugins,
cn=config

Valid Values

Any valid delay period in seconds

Default Value

60 seconds

Syntax

Integer

Example

nsMaxResponseDelay: 60
