Re: [Pki-users] Using a different directory server
Hi Ade and Dhiva,
Thanks a lot for your input, I was able to migrate the schema files over to my directory
and DogTag seems to be working fine after pointing to my directory. I will migrate the
indexes and vlv indexes too, forgot to do that :-p
I will not try to use DogTag config wizard to point to the new directory right away
because there's no way for me to emulate the Redhat DS config in my server, I was too
stubborn on trying to make the DogTag config work with my directory.

dhiva,
Thats an interesting approach to getting a ldap backup. Another option
you should consider is setting up a clone. The clone database will use
the same baseDN as the master system, and will set up replication
agreements to automatically sync up the instances. You can even turn
off the clone PKI instance to run as a cold standby if you wanted.
Karmen,
All the schema, indexes and so on used by dogtag will be in the ldif
files in $instance_path/conf/*.ldif. Some of these - like the indexes
or vlv indexes will rely on 389- related structure. You could try
tweaking these ldif files before starting your installation to use the
relevant structures in your db.

using a different directory server, I get missing entries in the access log for
"cn=ldbm database,cn=plugins,cn=config". Can someone tell me what the
requirements are if I want to switch to using another directory server for DogTag PKI?
