  • 1.  Is there a way to migrate secAuthority=Default from SDS to ISVD?

    Posted 3 hours ago

    Hello,

    I have to migrate the data from a SDS Virtual Appliance 8.0.1 LDAP to a ISVD 10.0.3 LDAP container.
    In SDS is a root entry SECAUTHORITY=DEFAULT, that I cannot migrate. It must have been created by the Access Manager.

    DIT
      > Root DSE
          > (..other suffixes..)
          > SECAUTHORITY=DEFAULT

    The LDIF Import throws an error, when it comes to 'dn: secAuthority=Default', because a parent entry is required.
    But secAuthority=Default should not have a parent.
    The manual creation of this DN in the root with Apache for example is also not possible.

    Hi Michael,

    I believe you need to create suffix secAuthority=Default on ISVD instance first

    You may do it with graphic tool of ISVD, idsxcfg  (it is in a sbin folder of the installation)

    Hope this helps,

    Mita

    Hi Mita,

    thanks, but this doesn't work. Btw. idsxcfg needs Java, and there is no Java in the container.
    But I can use the IDSWebApp over the browser.
    However, with the same problem, secAuthority=Default cannot be created in the root.

    I see. Not sure why it will not work.

    Let me check this:

    Adding suffixes in not the same as adding entries. In IDSWebApp, you go Server Administration -> Manage Server Properties, then Tab "Suffixes". There from, you add a suffix.

    There is no other place where you can create suffix, but in a root.

    Is it the place where you are trying to add it?

    Sorry if this is already tried.

    What is the error when you try_

    Thanks,

    Mita

    In root, yes. But no success at all, not even as suffix.
    When creating a suffix, IDSWebApp returns 'OK', but it doesn't appear.
    Not even when I add it to the suffixes list in the ISVD server config YAML.
    I wonder how they managed to create the entry in the root.
