For best sorting performance, create an index for each
user and group short name and display name attribute. For example,
add an index for cn and choose rule: substring.
About this task
Also you must have a copy of all objects within the user
and group search scope. If the search scope starts at the top of the
directory tree, Novell eDirectory must have a copy of every replica.
The replica must be Master, read/write, and read-only. Consult Novell
eDirectory documentation and support for complete information and
assistance.
Procedure
To use ConsoleOne:
- In ConsoleOne, right-click the Server object.
- Click
- Enter the Index Name. If you do not enter an
index name, the attribute is automatically assigned as the index.
- Select an attribute.
- Select the index rule.
- Value matches the entire value or the
first part of the value of an attribute. For example, value matching
could be used to find entries with a LastName that is equal to "Jensen"
and entries with a LastName that begins with "Jen".
- Presence requires only the presence of
an attribute rather than specific attribute values. A query to find
all entries with a Login Script attribute would use a presence index.
- Substring matches a subset of the attribute
value string. For example, a query to find a LastName with "der" would
return matches for Derington, Anderson, and Lauder.
- A substring index is the most resource intensive index to create
and maintain.
- Click OK to update the index table.
- Click Apply to restart Limber as
a background process and initiate the change.
