Using a soft-delete policy and global configuration property |
Configure soft deletes by creating a soft-delete policy and a global configuration property. The soft-delete policy enables the feature on the server, while the global configuration property sets the controls used for the soft-delete requests. To enter a soft delete request, the ldapmodify or ldapdelete command requires the --useSoftDelete option. A delete request that does not have the --useSoftDelete option is treated as a hard delete, which permanently removes the entry. For more information, see Configuring soft deletes as a global configuration. |

Using connection criteria |
Configure soft deletes by defining connection criteria within a client connection policy. Any clients that meet the criteria have their deletes processed as soft deletes. For more information, see Configuring soft deletes by connection criteria. |
|
Using request criteria |
Configure soft deletes by defining request criteria within a client connection policy. Any client requests that meet the criteria have their deletes processed as soft deletes. For more information, see Configuring soft deletes by request criteria. Note:
You can define both connection criteria and request criteria. When both criteria exist within a soft-delete policy, connection criteria is processed first, then request criteria. |
Use any of the following methods to configure soft deletes on the PingDirectory server.
