2.3. Core Server Configuration Attributes Reference
This section contains reference information on the configuration attributes that are relevant to the core
server functionality. For information on changing server configuration, see
Section 2.2, “Accessing
and Modifying Server Configuration”
. For a list of server features that are implemented as plug-ins,
see
Section 3.1, “Server Plug-in Functionality Reference”
. For help with implementing custom server
functionality, contact Directory Server support.
The configuration information stored in the
dse.ldif
file is organized as an information tree under
the general configuration entry
cn=config
, as shown in the following diagram.
Figure 2.2. Directory Information Tree Showing Configuration Data
Most of these configuration tree nodes are covered in the following sections.
The
cn=plugins
node is covered in
Chapter 3, Plug-in Implemented Server Functionality Reference
.
The description of each attribute contains details such as the DN of its directory entry, its default value,
the valid range of values, and an example of its use.
NOTE
Some of the entries and attributes described in this chapter may change in future releases
of the product.
2.3.1. cn=config
