SLAPO-REFINT(5)						       SLAPO-REFINT(5)

NAME
       slapo-refint - Referential Integrity overlay to slapd

SYNOPSIS
       /etc/openldap/slapd.conf

DESCRIPTION
       The  Referential	 Integrity overlay can be used with a backend database
       such as slapd-bdb(5) to maintain the cohesiveness  of  a	 schema	 which
       utilizes reference attributes.

       Integrity  is maintained by updating database records which contain the
       named attributes to match the results of a modrdn or delete  operation.
       For  example,  if  the  integrity attribute were configured as manager,
       deletion of the record  "uid=robert,ou=people,dc=example,dc=com"	 would
       trigger	a  search for all other records which have a manager attribute
       containing that DN. Entries matching that search would have their  man‐
       ager   attribute	  removed.    Or,   renaming   the  same  record  into
       "uid=george,ou=people,dc=example,dc=com" would trigger a search for all
       other  records  which  have  a  manager	attribute  containing that DN.
       Entries matching that search would have their manager attribute deleted
       and replaced by the new DN.

CONFIGURATION
       These  slapd.conf  options  apply to the Referential Integrity overlay.
       They should appear after the overlay directive.

       refint_attributes <attribute> [...]
	      Specify one or more attributes for which integrity will be main‐
	      tained as described above.

       refint_nothing <string>
	      Specify  an arbitrary value to be used as a placeholder when the
	      last value would otherwise be deleted from  an  attribute.  This
	      can  be  useful in cases where the schema requires the existence
	      of an attribute for which referential integrity is enforced. The
	      attempted deletion of a required attribute will otherwise result
	      in an Object Class Violation, causing the request to fail.   The
	      string must be a valid DN.

       refint_modifiersname <DN>
	      Specify  the  DN to be used as the modifiersName of the internal
	      modifications performed by the overlay.  It defaults to "cn=Ref‐
	      erential Integrity Overlay".
