3.7.9. dnaSharedCfgDN
This attribute defines a shared identity that the servers can use to transfer ranges to one another. This
entry is replicated between servers and is managed by the plug-in to let the other servers know what
ranges are available. This attribute must be set for range transfers to be enabled.
NOTE
The shared configuration entry must be configured in the replicated
subtree, so that the entry can be replicated to the servers. For example,
if the ou=People,dc=example,dc=com subtree is replicated, then the
configuration entry must be in that subtree, such as ou=UID Number Ranges,
ou=People,dc=example,dc=com.
The entry identified by this setting must be manually created by the administrator. The server will
automatically contain a sub-entry beneath it to transfer ranges.
Parameter Description
Entry DN cn=Distributed Numeric Assignment Plugin,
cn=plugins, cn=config
