browsing index entry (as described in the Administrator's Guide), which defines the virtual list base DN,
scope, and filter. The nsIndexVLVAttribute value is the browsing index entry, and the VLV creation
task is run according to the browsing index entry parameters.
Parameter Description
Entry DN cn=task_name, cn=index, cn=tasks, cn=config
Valid Values
Any attribute
The index type, which can be pres (presence),
eq (equality), approx (approximate), and sub

2.3.15.7. cn=schema reload task
The directory schema is loaded when the directory instance is started or restarted. Any changes to the
directory schema, including adding custom schema elements, are not loaded automatically and available
to the instance until the server is restarted or by initiating a schema reload task.
Custom schema changes can be reloaded dynamically, without having to restart the Directory Server
instance. This is done by initiating a schema reload task through creating a new task entry under the
cn=tasks entry.
The custom schema file can be located in any directory; if not specified with the schemadir attribute, the
server reloads the schema from the default /etc/dirsrv/slapd-instance_name/schema directory.
IMPORTANT
Any schema loaded from another directory must be copied into the schema directory or the
schema will be lost when the server.
The schema reload task is initiated though the command line by creating a special task entry which
defines the parameters of the task and initiates the task. As soon as the task is complete, the task entry
is removed from the directory. For example:
dn: cn=example schema reload,cn=schema reload task, cn=tasks, cn=config
objectclass: extensibleObject
cn:example schema reload
schemadir: /export/schema
The cn=schema reload task entry is a container entry for schema reload operations. The
cn=schem a reload task entry itself has no attributes, but each of the task entries within this entry,
such as cn=task_ID, cn=schema reload task, cn=tasks, cn=config, uses the schema reload
attributes to define the individual reload task.
cn
The cn attribute is used to identify a new task operation to initiate. The cn attribute value can be
anything, as long as it defines a new task.
Parameter Description
Entry DN cn=task_name, cn=schema reload task,
cn=tasks, cn=config
Valid Values Any string
Default Value
