Available privileges - PingDirectory - 10.1

This privilege is required to initiate a data security audit on the server, which is invoked by the audit-data-security tool.

This privilege is required to initiate an online backup through the tasks interface. The server's access control configuration must also allow the user to add the corresponding entry in the tasks backend.

This privilege is required to initiate an online restore through the tasks interface. The server's access control configuration must also allow the user to add the corresponding entry in the tasks backend.

This privilege allows a user to bypass access control evaluation. For a user with this privilege, any access control determination made by the server immediately returns that the operation is allowed.

This privilege allows a user entry to bypass password policy evaluation. This privilege is intended for cases where external synchronization might require passwords that violate the password validation rules. The privilege is also evaluated for bind operations, meaning password restrictions are also bypassed when binding as a user who has this privilege.

This privilege allows the associated user to bypass access control checks performed by the server for bind, search, and compare operations. Access control evaluation can still be enforced for other types of operations.

This privilege is required for a user to access the server configuration. Access control evaluation is still performed and can be used to restrict the set of configuration objects that the user is allowed to see.

This privilege is required for a user to alter the server configuration. The user must also have the config-read privilege. Access control evaluation is still performed and can be used to restrict the set of configuration objects that the user is allowed to alter.

This privilege is required for a user to request that an existing client connection be terminated. The connection is terminated through the disconnect client task. The server's access control configuration must also allow the user to add the corresponding entry to the tasks backend.

This privilege is required for a user to subscribe to Java Management Extensions (JMX) notifications generated by the server. The user is also required to have the jmx-read privilege.

This privilege is required for a user to access any information provided by the server through the JMX.

This privilege is required for a user to update any information exposed by the server through the JMX. The user is also required to have the jmx-read privilege.

This privilege is required to initiate an online LDIF export through the tasks interface. The server's access control configuration must also allow the user to add the corresponding entry in the Tasks backend. To allow access to the Tasks backend, you can set up a global access control instruction (ACI) that allows access to members of an Administrators group.

This privilege is required to initiate an online LDIF import through the tasks interface. The server's access control configuration must also allow the user to add the corresponding entry in the Tasks backend. To allow access to the Tasks backend, configure the global ACI as described in the previous description of the ldif-export privilege.

This privilege allows the associated user to request that the server enter or leave lockdown mode, or to perform operations while the server is in lockdown mode.

This privilege is required for a user to add, modify, or remove access control rules defined in the server. The server's access control configuration must also allow the user to make the corresponding change to the aci operational attribute.

This privilege is required for one user to be allowed to change another user’s password. This privilege is not required for a user to be allowed to change his or her own password. The user must also have the access control instruction privilege to write the userPassword attribute to the target entry.

This privilege is required for a user to change the set of privileges assigned to a user, including the set of privileges, which are automatically granted to root users. The server's access control configuration must also allow the user to make the corresponding change to the ds-privilege-name operational attribute.

This privilege is required for a user to request that an operation be performed with an alternate authorization identity. This privilege bears some security risk, because it allows users to inherit the level of access of any user, including root users and administrators. Consider restricting proxy users as described in the section Restricting proxy users.

This privilege is required to initiate a server restart through the tasks interface. The server's access control configuration must also allow the user to add the corresponding entry in the tasks backend.

This privilege is required to initiate a server shutdown through the tasks interface. The server's access control configuration must also allow the user to add the corresponding entry in the tasks backend.

This privilege is required for a user to access a soft-deleted-entry.

This privilege is required for a user to perform a stream values extended operation, which obtains all entry distinguished names (DNs) and all values for one or more attributes for a specified portion of the directory information tree (DIT).

This privilege is required for a user to be able to perform a search operation in which a reasonable set of candidate entries cannot be determined using the defined index and instead, a significant portion of the database needs to be traversed to identify matching entries. The server's access control configuration must also allow the user to request the search.

This privilege is required for a user to modify the server schema. The server's access control configuration must allow the user to update the operational attributes that contain the schema elements.
