Configuring the global indexes manually
About this task
If you don’t want to configure priming during setup, you can configure the index priming manually.
To do this, create an external server, create a global attribute index, and change the entry-balancing request processor to load indexes from the external server.
Steps
-
To create an external server of the PingDirectoryProxy type to represent a peer of the PingDirectoryProxy server, use the
dsconfig
tool with thecreate-external-server
subcommand.Example:
$ bin/dsconfig create-external-server \ --server-name intra-proxy-host.example.com:3389 \ --type PingDirectoryProxy-server \ --set server-host-name:intra-proxy-host \ --set server-port:338 \ --set "bind-dn:cn=Directory Manager" \ --set "password:secret123"
-
Create a global attribute index on the
uid
attribute.Example:
$ bin/dsconfig create-global-attribute-index \ --processor-name dc_example+dc+com-eb-req-processor \ --index-name uid \
-
To load the indexes at startup from the peer PingDirectoryProxy server, change the entry-balancing request processor using
dsconfig set-request-processor-prop
.
