Extending ovd schema with 10.1.4.3 release on linux

We are trying to apply Note 739067.1 but $OVD_HOME/tools/ldapmodify is not available in 10.1.4.3 release. There are some script to use a java ImportLDIF class but in windows format. Is there some procedure to extend ovd schema from command line in linux?
We are using ovd in front of Oracle Internet Directory.
Regards

I don't think so. I remember for certain patchsets on Solaris (Sparc), to be able to apply the patchset - I had to download an interim patch to update the OUI version. It was necessary to apply that particular patchset. And I got that from Metalink, it was documented in the patchset help file. I guess, you should try the Metalink. The OUI version 10.1.0.4 I was referring to actually comes with iAS 10g R2. For the database version, 10g R2 - OUI version is 10.2.

How do I extend the schema with a new auxiliary objectclass in Directory Server 4.11?

There seems to be no way to mark a new objectclass as AUXILIARY from the Netscape Console with Directory Server 4.11. Likewise, there is no mention of auxiliary objectclasses in the Administrator's Guide or Deployment Guide. When I simply mark the new objectclass with a superior of 'top', I get an Object class violation error when I try to add the objectclass and new attributes to an existing entry.
So my questions are:
1. Are auxiliary objectclasses supported in Directory Server 4.x?
2. If so, how do I add them with the Netscape Console or directory in the configuration files?
3. If not, is there a workaround that mimics the behavior of auxiliary objectclasses?
Thanks.

Even if 4.x supports marking objectclasses as Auxiliary (which I don't think it does. iDS 5.x does), the Directory Server ignores the flags when it comes to schema checking, ie you can mimic behavior of auxiliary objectclasses without tagging the objectclass as Auxialiry in the schema.

Extending AD schema - any hidden gotchas?

I've had a fairly positive experience with the triangle (up until 10.6 anyway), but I'm considering ditching the Xserve and going the schema route.
Any major caveats to watch out for? Possible things to go wrong?
TIA!

FZ I'm a complete mac noob - I only got into the whole mac thing just a month ago. So I am very, very green and I can only relay to you what I have read. So I am no expert - perhaps someone could verify my comments.
I've read that you could loose access to the files on a windows share by switching from OD attributes to the other AD attributes. Pls can someone verify my statement.
My Notes
you have 3 choices to managing preferences
1. Ad+ OD
2. Third party
3. Extend schema
Windows 2003 already contains the basic schema extensions of RFC2307 for Unix posix compatibility uidNumber - however I think this and other RFC2307 fields are empty and need populating within AD through scripts or imports. Anyone able to help me find such a script or define an import method?
So the question is if you have windows 2003 or better do you really need to extend the schema? And even if you have windows2003 or better by extending the schema what do you get? My guess is native mac attributes added to the windows AD that remove the need for OD.
Notes that need verify.
1. You could use the standard RFC 2307 attributes in Windows 2003 or better. They will need to be filled. You could then link/map those in Workgroup manager??
2. Extend AD schema with apple attributes, populate (scripts) and use workgroup manager to talk to AD to manage preferences. Anyone able to help me find an AD script or define an import method?
As I'm typing the fog of misunderstanding is still rolling over me. Which leads to ask these questions too:
1. What are the attributes in RFC 2307. Googling I get these:
RFC 2307 Using LDAP as a Network Information Service March 1998
uidNumber
gidNumber
gecos
homeDirectory
loginShell
shadowLastChange
shadowMin
shadowMax
shadowWarning
shadowInactive
shadowExpire
shadowFlag
memberUid
memberNisNetgroup
nisNetgroupTriple
ipServicePort
ipServiceProtocol
ipProtocolNumber
oncRpcNumber
ipHostNumber
ipNetworkNumber
ipNetmaskNumber
macAddress
bootParameter
bootFile
nisMapName
nisMapEntry
I'm assuming that these are them.
The peachpit books seem a great resource and there are references to eseminars the links have changed and I've now found them - http://www.seminars.apple.com/cgi-bin/WebObjects/ASPRegistration.woa/wa/sol but won't be able to access them until later tonight (offpeak)

What happens when i remove Dimension table in extended star schema

*how to integrate the flex builder web dynpro and xcelsius?
i found some scenarios like when the content of the table change the chart will changes for the changed data in the table using flash islands and web dynpro.
my scenario is like this.
when i changed the chart with sliders automatically the content in the table will update to the chart level ? but both table and chart will be in the same dashboard. how can i work out this scenario using flash islands, flex and web dynpro>
thanks in Advance*

Hi Seth,
I think your script will be useful, please share them
Here it is. It does the same items that the DPM tool does to the domain, with a few extra steps noted at the top.
We create a group that has the permissions on the container, with the hope that one day, this feature will be available (DCR submitted). In our support model, we would rather delegate permissions to support personnel to modify group membership than
modify ACLs on system containers.    Your opinion on this may differ, so, feel free to remove it.
It also gives our support personnel permissions to modify the sharemap container - so they can enable DPM EUR servers later.
Both of these have been working fine for preparing a domain / enabling EUR. Preparing the domain is run by domain admin, then, we leave enabling EUR to our support staff.
Remember, this is not supported, this just makes the same changes that the EUR tool does. You should use the EUR tool from Microsoft.

Need help with an extended star schema.

I have the following data in spreadsheet form and I need to transpose this into an extended star schema in order to prdouce my characteristics and key figures, however I'm having a little trouble understanding where to include the Product Group in the star schema and also what to do with the Sales Doc (Invoice Number) in the sales information spreadsheet.
I need to summarise the data into the following also:
1.     Total quantity and revenue for each Channel and product group
2.     Total quantity and revenue for each Channel and product group (July 2009 to September 2009)
3.      Total Quantity and Revenue for iphone sales
So my question in short is what would the star schema look like? I'm hoping somebody can help me over this hurdle.

Star Schema Model:

Potentially the issue may be the combination of actual distance and the presence of any Wi-Fi interference at the location of the AirPort Express that may be the culprit here. The bottom line is you would want the Express to be within a 25+ dB range of the Extreme to be sure that it can consistently stay connected to it.
For more details on proper base station placement, check out the following AirPort User tip. Please post back your results.

Regarding Extended star schema

Hi Friends,
In Extended star schema,master data will load separately ,which will connect through sid's to dimension table .
My question is.. This master data tables can be used other than this cube ?
Please tell me i am in confusion.
Thanks in advace,
Regards,
ramnaresh.

Hi
InfoCubes are made up of a number of InfoObjects. All InfoObjects (characteristics and key figures) are available independent of the InfoCube. Characteristics refer to master data with their attributes and text descriptions.
An InfoCube consists of several InfoObjects and is structured according to the star schema. This means there is a (large) fact table that contains the key figures for the InfoCube, as well as several (smaller) dimension tables which surround it. The characteristics of the InfoCube are stored in these dimensions.
An InfoCube fact table only contains key figures, in contrast to a DataStore object, whose data part can also contain characteristics. The characteristics of an InfoCube are stored in its dimensions.
The dimensions and the fact table are linked to one another using abstract identification numbers (dimension IDs) which are contained in the key part of the particular database table. As a result, the key figures of the InfoCube relate to the characteristics of the dimension. The characteristics determine the granularity (the degree of detail) at which the key figures are stored in the InfoCube.
Characteristics that logically belong together (for example, district and area belong to the regional dimension) are grouped together in a dimension. By adhering to this design criterion, dimensions are to a large extent independent of each other, and dimension tables remain small with regards to data volume. This is beneficial in terms of performance. This InfoCube structure is optimized for data analysis.
The fact table and dimension tables are both relational database tables.
Characteristics refer to the master data with their attributes and text descriptions. All InfoObjects (characteristics with their master data as well as key figures) are available for all InfoCubes, unlike dimensions, which represent the specific organizational form of characteristics in one InfoCube.
Integration
You can create aggregates to access data quickly. Here, the InfoCube data is stored redundantly and in an aggregated form.
You can either use an InfoCube directly as an InfoProvider for analysis and reporting, or use it with other InfoProviders as the basis of a MultiProvider or InfoSet.

Extending AD schema to sync to Office365

Hi, we currently are running a fresh AD environment that has never been exposed to Exchange. We are running DirSync to sync AD to Office365 (one way). We're currently unable to manage several attributes due to not ever having an Exchange installation, so
we simply need to extend our AD schema to add the necessary attributes. This seems to be a somewhat common problem, but there doesn't seem to be any official documentation/procedure for fixing. Here's a few things that really need clarification, for anyone
looking to extend their schema for Office365 purposes:
1. Which Exchange installation to use to extend schema?
2. The objects that were synced to Office365 initially had some of the attributes we're now missing. Should we be concerned about overwriting these attributes with null values after the schema extension? What is the best method to address these concerns?
Is there a list of attributes provided by the schema extension so we can check what may be overwritten?
Thanks and please help!

1. Which Exchange installation to use to extend schema?
I always used Exchange Server 2013.
2. The objects that were synced to Office365 initially had some of the attributes we're now missing.
Should we be concerned about overwriting these attributes with null values after the schema extension?
If something is wrong with the sync then you should be able to see it on DirSync after the sync attempt. The list of synced attributes is mentioned here: http://social.technet.microsoft.com/wiki/contents/articles/19901.dirsync-list-of-attributes-that-are-synced-by-the-azure-active-directory-sync-tool.aspx
Of course, the data are synced from AD to Office 365 so you need to take in consideration that your data will be overwritten. The good approach would be to populate these attributes in AD before running the sync.

Wat is the use of sid in extended star schema rather than linking masterdat

hi bw gurus,
wat is the use of sid in extended star schema rather than linking masterdata with dimention tables?
thanx in advace,
i will assign points,
srinivas

hi,
the sid are used instead of the data in order to avoid the redunduncy of data.
and reduce the datastorage size.
the data will be present in the sid table and the data is linked used the corerponding sid in the dimension.

Extending LDAP schema

Dear all,
I have directory server 2005Q4 configured with idsconfig for naming authentication, i.e. providing replacement for NIS environment.
The question is what would be the proper procedure to extend the schema (something else?) to provide capabilities for Messaging Server 2005Q4 to use existing DS and existing user profiles?
Thank you for your help,
Andrei

Messaging Server provides it's own script (comms-dssetup ???) that adds the schema required by Messaging Server to DS. To extent the DS schema for
other applications/users take a look at the DS Admin Guide.

Extended Star Schema

Hi
Right now I'm trying to implement SAP HR Infotypes into SAP BW. I try to combine 10 infotypes (all Personal Administration) into one infocube. The confusing one is that when I see my dimension, there something strange (please see below)
Dimension 1 (from PA0016)
ZDATEFROM16
ZDATETO16
ZXXX (60 character, don't have master date attribute or text)
ZYYY (30 character, don't have master date attribute or text)
ZAAA(3 character, only master data text)
Dimension 2 (from PA0023)
ZDATEFROM23
ZDATETO23
ZCCC (60 character, don't have master date attribute or text)
ZBBB (30 character, don't have master date attribute or text)
ZDDD (20 character, don't have master date attribute or text)
If i see my dimension, it seems strange because most of them don't have master data (text,attr,hierarchy).
Is this violate the extended star schema design? Thank you.
Regards,
Satria

You can use characteristics such as ZXXX without master data (text, attr, hier) in extended star schema. It is not a violation. This means in business, for this characteristic you really don't need its text, attribute or hierarchy.
When perform data modeling for you HR cube, please do consider the design, can some characteristic be attribute of another one? Will you use hierarchy such organization level for some characteristic? characteristic with text, attribute or hierachy can provide more flexibility in reporting.

Is possible to work without extending the schema sccm2012? as I can do?

I am implementing SCCM 2102
and will not let me extend the schema
in the forest. that I can make my
implementation work seamlessly. Is it possible?
thks

Ok, thks, I'm new to this and wanted
to be sure because when shipping to
discover both active directoryusers and devices
have errors like 4913
On 12/17/13 15:01:11, component SMS_SITE_COMPONENT_MANAGER on computer AOESCCMUIO.AgipOilEcuador.pri reported: Configuration Manager cannot create the object "cn=SMS-MP-C01-AOESCCMUIO.AGIPOILECUADOR.PRI" in Active Directory (pri).
Possible cause: The site server's machine account may not have full control rights for the "System Management" container in Active Directory
Solution: Give the site server's machine account full control rights to the "System Management" container, and all child objects in Active Directory.
Possible cause: Another Active Directory object named "cn=SMS-MP-C01-AOESCCMUIO.AGIPOILECUADOR.PRI" already exists somewhere outside of the "System Management" container
Solution: Locate the other object with the same name, and delete the object from its current location. Then allow the site to create a new object.
Possible cause: The Active Directory schema has not been extended with the correct ConfigMgr Active Directory classes and attributes.
Solution: Turn off Active Directory publishing for each site in the forest, until the schema can be extended. The schema can be extended with the tool "extadsch.exe" from the installation media

Do we need to extend AD schema again? If so, what is the difference between extending the schema for Exchange 2000 and Exchange 2003? Will this not cause duplicate entries in AD?

Hi Andy,

Yes, extend the schema again, On Cisco Unity DVD 1 or CD 1, or from the location to which you saved the downloaded Cisco Unity CD 1 image files, browse to the directory ADSchemaSetup, and double-click ADSchemaSetup.exe
To see the changes that the schema update program makes, browse to the directory Schema\LdifScripts on Cisco Unity DVD 1 or CD 1, and view the file Avdirmonex2k.ldf.

Main differences between Exchange 2000 and 2003.
Improved security, including all those of IIS v 6.0.
HTTP over RPC means you do not need to configure a VPN for OWA.
Up to 8 node Active / Passive clustering.
Volume Shadow Copy for backup.
Super upgrade tools like ExDeploy.
pfMigrate utility to move public folders from legacy systems.
An attempt to control Junk email both on the client and the server.
Upgrade should go fine and no duplicate entries will be created.

How to extend AD schema for Exchange

Hi,
Please can someone help me understand the process for extending AD schema for Exchange?
I’m concerned because there are some cautions noted generally in the process so i’m looking for best practice to ensure extending in a safe and smooth manor.
Bit of background on our environment -
Moving to Office365 in a hybrid environment, never used Microsoft products for email.
New On-prem AD Physical DC, 2012 Server with DirSync to Azure/ O365
OU’s populated with objects.
Would like to manage users and distribution groups from within AD on-prem.
Many thanks,
Leo.

It is recommended to have at least two DC/GC servers for HA.
We are using Office 365 too for 65k + and we do have Powershell scripts to make the attribute changes and identify users with missing or incorrect messaging attributes. So, you might think about using Powershell scripts too.
65K? That's the largest I've heard yet! Are you in an educational environment? That's what I understand and should have pointed out. We are a university and the first to use O365 consolidating Google, Notes and Mirapoint active mailboxes. We still
haven't touched Alumni, which are on Google. That would take us to the 75k level, but that discussion is on a backburner.

How do i use my time capsule and extend the network with airport express

I have a new iMac and Time Capsule, how do i extend the network with airport express. My time capsule does have a guest net work, and logins and passwords? I am no computer person. So for me it would have to be spelled out.

Use the search as this has been done to death ..
Bob Timmons is the expert on this.. look at his answers here.

This has been automated in the v6 utility. I am used to doing it manually in v5 utility which is also fairly easy.
Apple doco is also good to read.

Note.
You cannot extend the guest network unless everything is up to date 7.6.3 firmware. And that is only with the TC as the main router in the network.
All apple routers can be configured as the main wireless or as the extend wireless.. so don't worry if a post uses express or extreme or TC.. they are for wireless, the same thing.
