Disabling soft deletes as a global configuration

To disable soft deletes on your PingDirectory server, reset the global configuration property and the remove the soft-delete policy.

About this task

From that point, PingDirectory processes all deletes as hard deletes by default. Any use of the soft-deleted options with the LDAP tools results in an error. Any existing soft-deleted entries that are present disabling after the global configuration remain in the server as latent entries.

Be sure to include the LDAP bind parameters for your system when running each of these commands.

Steps

  1. To reset the global configuration property, run the following dsconfig command.

    Example:

    $ bin/dsconfig set-global-configuration-prop --reset soft-delete-policy
  2. To reset the global configuration property, run the following dsconfig command.

    Example:

    $ bin/dsconfig delete-soft-delete-policy --policy-name default-soft-delete-policy
