How to specify LDAP backup server?

Hi All,
we are currently starting to authenticate more 'n' more of our master servers against an LDAP backend, which works great. However, we wonder if anyone knows of a possibility to specify a backup host. Our LDAP servers are usually mirrored, but we cannot assure SPS logins if the primary one fails, since only one host can be specified.
Regards,
Frank

Hi,
it seems I found the solution myself. In the end, the jaas.conf file is independent of SPS, so I tried modifying the userProvider entry, adding a second server. Seems to work out. Our jaas.conf looks something like this:
ldap {
   com.sun.n1.sps.userdb.LdapLoginModule Required
   userProvider="ldap://host1 ldap://host2"
   userFilter="(&(uid={USERNAME})(objectClass=posixAccount))"
   authIdentity="uid={USERNAME},ou=People,dc=example,dc=org"
   useSSL=false;
};Hostnames are space-separated.
Regards,
Frank

  • How to get LDAP v2 server freeware to download?

    HI,
    I'm looking for LDAP V2 server freeware software to install in my machine and need to test it in my local environment. I found in Sun Java System Directory Server, but I think its a commercial product, I need opensource for LDAP V2/V3 if possbile. Could someone help to get this please.

    DSEE is a commercial product but free to download and use. You need to pay only if you want support and patches. You can also try OpenDS. It's "free" too (open source). If you want support for OpenDS, that is available as well.

  • How to specify the webLogic server startup script to use different config.xml  file ??

    Hi,
    I have 2 weblogic startup scripts (startWebLogic.sh and
    startWebLogic_recovery.sh) for the same domain.
    startWebLogic.sh uses config.xml file.
    I would like to use config_recovery.xml as the configuration file for startWebLogic_recovery.sh
    How would I do this ?
    I am using WebLogic Server 6.1 on SunOS 5.8 / HP-UX 11.0.
    Appreciate any help.
    Regards
    Gunaseelan Venkateswaran

    I guess you're using Weblogic 6.1 with WLCS 3.5. I think you're supposed to work with one config.xml for the same domain, and not have a different config.xml.
    To start up different applications or EJBs, use the "target" property to control which applications to start up for the particular instance.

  • How to find out ASE backup server?

    As backup server is a separate service. how to find out if ASE engine has backup server or not?
    Or how to get into backup server and find out what ASE this backup server is working for?

    Just to add a little to Gek's reply, addressing your second question:
    Or how to get into backup server and find out what ASE this backup server is working for?
    That you can't really do.  A backupserver can be used by multiple ASE servers and doesn't maintain any permanent registry of servers it is used by.  From a connection to ASE, you can do a SYB_BACKUP....sp_who remote procedure call to get some information on current activity on the backupserver, but the information is pretty limited.
    1> SYB_BACKUP...sp_who
    2> go
    spid        status     loginame                       hostname     blk cmd
               1 sleeping   NULL                           NULL         0   CONNECT HANDLER
               2 sleeping   NULL                           NULL         0   DEFERRED HANDLER
               3 runnable   NULL                           NULL         0   SCHEDULER
               4 runnable   NULL                           REL157SP1xx* 0   SITE HANDLER
               6 running    sa                             bret-sun2    0   NULL
    (5 rows affected)
    My ASE's name is REL157SP1xx_bret_sun2, so you aren't even getting the full name of the ASE backupserver is currently working with.  I had just booted the backupserver, so the Site Handler was started to handle the RPC call, it doesn't even mean that server had ever dumped a database.
    While you can connect to the backpserver directly with a client, the backupserver does not have a command language processor, so any commands you send directly to backupserver (as opposed to rpc calls) will only get the response "no language handler installed", like this:
    bret-sun2% isql -Usa -P -Srel1572nb_bret_sun2_back
    1> select @@version
    2> go
    No language handler installed.
    That is why the (polite) way of shutting down a backupserver is to issue
    "shutdown SYB_BACKUP" from a client logged into an ASE.  (the impolite
    way is to use an OS kill command against the backpserver process).

  • How can we take backup of all the RDL'S existing at Report server dynamically at one time

    How can we take backup of all the RDL'S existing at Report server dynamically at one time ? I want to take backup of all the reports existing at the report server dynamically at one time only. currently I'm able to take backup of the reports folder wise
    using VBScript. and I have to pass the folder names again and again. I want this to be happened for all the reports of all the folders at single shot only using VBScript.

    Hi DineshRemash,
    Based on my research, we can store the following VB Script to a text file, then modify the file name extension from .txt to .rss.
    Dim rootPath As String = "C:\Reports"
    Sub Main()
    Dim items As CatalogItem() = _
    rs.ListChildren("/", true)
    For Each item As CatalogItem in items
    If item.Type = ItemTypeEnum.Folder Then
    CreateDirectory(item.Path)
    Else If item.Type = ItemTypeEnum.Report Then
    SaveReport(item.Path)
    End If
    Next
    End Sub
    Sub CreateDirectory(path As String)
    path = GetLocalPath(path)
    System.IO.Directory.CreateDirectory(path)
    End Sub
    Sub SaveReport(reportName As String)
    Dim reportDefinition As Byte()
    Dim document As New System.Xml.XmlDocument()
    reportDefinition = rs.GetReportDefinition(reportName)
    Dim stream As New MemoryStream(reportDefinition)
    document.Load(stream)
    document.Save(GetLocalPath(reportName) + ".rdl")
    End Sub
    Function GetLocalPath(rsPath As String) As String
    Return rootPath + rsPath.Replace("/", "\")
    End Function
    Then navigate to the folder contains the script, we can directly run the below command from the run menu:
    rs -s
    http://aa/ ReportServer -i download.rss
    We can modify the rootpath to point at whaterver fold you’d like to download the RDL files.
    Hope this helps.

  • How to specify Host Server for Replicated Virtual Desktops within RDVH Collection

    My question about how to specify Host Server for Replicated Virtual Desktops within Collection.
    I know there is a aswered thread on this, but that solution (wait a week) didn't work for me.
    So i have 2 servers, RDS01 and RDS02 with both 15 Hyper-V VM's and replicating to eachother. That part works fine.
    Now I wanted to make it easy for my users I build a Connection Broker: RDCB
    All went fine in that setup, but when I want to add the existing VM's from RDS01 and RDS02 to the collection it just radomly adds running ones and replicated ones.
    So both RDS01 and RDS02 have 15 VM's running and 15 replica's in stopped state, but when I look in my collection, it says RDS01 has 23 and RDS02 has 7 VM's. When I add them all, I see he wants to add a lot of stopped states replica's from RDS01 instead of
    the running ones from RDS02.
    How can I specify which one he should use? Or need I disable replication first, setup the whole RDCB collection thing, and then turn replication back on? Or does Hyper-V replication not work at all when used in a collection?
    I hope someone can help out here. I'm googling and trying for 1,5 week now, but i can;t get it right.
    Thanks in advance.

    Hi Robin,
    Thanks for your patience.
    After you removed Replication from 1 machine on both RDS01 and RDS02, please restart that machine. After that, please add this machine to the RD collection again to test how the issue goes.
    As we know, Hyper-V Replica provides asynchronous replication of Hyper-V virtual machines between two hosting servers. It is simple to configure and does not require either shared storage or any particular storage hardware. Any server workload that can be
    virtualized in Hyper-V can be replicated. Replication works over any ordinary IP-based network, and the replicated data can be encrypted during transmission. Hyper-V Replica works with standalone servers, failover clusters, or a mixture of both. The servers
    can be physically co-located or widely separated geographically. The physical servers do not need to be in the same domain, or even joined to any domain at all.
    Currently, would you please add only running state VMs to the RD CB collection? And would you please capture some screenshots of the error message? Thanks very much for your cooperation.
    Best regards,
    Sophia Sun

  • How to determine LDAP server type

    Hello,
    Please post some hints how to determine LDAP server type(MS AD, OpenLDAP, Novell, Sun...) from rootDSE or somehow else?
    Thank you,
    Vladislav

    Hello Vladislav,
    the root DSE should be the best place to look for such
    things, I'd say. This is where an LDAP server advertises
    its capabilities. However, I'm not aware of an easy, fail-
    safe way of doing the distinguishing. One way, which would
    need some good logic, though, would be to go by supported
    OIDs, e.g. a SunONE DS 5.x will have attribute values like
    this in the rootDSE:
    supportedExtension=2.16.840.1.113730.3.5.3
    supportedExtension=2.16.840.1.113730.3.5.5
    (basically saying the DS supports it's own replication
    protocol). But it is quite feasible for other servers
    to support this protocol and thus advertise those OIDs
    in the rootDSE. Therefore you'd probably need to check your
    logic again and again for every new release of every known
    directory server.
    My 2 cents,
    Karl.

  • How to Specify Which Version of Rsync on Server Side

    I have installed rsync 3.0.6 on both client and server side and know how to specify which version to use on the client side but am I right in assuming that if I don't specify some how on the server side it will use the version stored in /usr/bin/rsync? Do I have to move the version stored in /usr/local/bin/rsync to /usr/bin?
    Thanks.

  • How to configure LDAP in BPEL Server

    Hi,
    How to configure LDAP in BPEL Server?
    Also, what if we want to bounce to a YAHOO or GMAIL type email?
    Basically, can we do dynamic email and phone notifications from BPEL?
    Is there any documentation which tell us how to do this?
    I appreciate any pointer in this regard.
    Thanks in Advance.
    Levey.

    Levey,
    You can do the dynamic email and phone notifications with the help of xpath expressions. Basically there are api to get the these attributes based on the ID on the identity server.

  • HT5096 how about copying the backup to a server instead of a hard drive?

    how about copying the backup to a server instead of a hard drive? Doesn't seem to work.

    ISP's cap your upload speed to a fraction of your download so you don't run a server off your computer.
    You can certainly spend more money to upload faster, but it's a waste of money and the data online can vanish or be held or spied upon.
    Then there is a prolem that you want to restore your system and there is slow Internet.
    Apple now requires fresh OS X installs to come from them online, it's better to have local drive to boot from anytime, so a bootable clone is ideal, better than TimeMachine which is only a backup system
